Ornn's lore is amazing. You have made him my favorite character personality wise. I absolutely love his dialogue and how done he is with everyone. His quotes are fitting and every time I read it, I heard it with his voice because it fit so well.

Ornn is a wonderful champion please protect him for all your life thank you FauxShizzle

You have no idea how much I appreciate you taking the time to say this. We've been working on this champion for 9 months now. There have been easy times and incredibly difficult ones -- I lost two family members during his creation -- but days like today, where the work, not just myself, but a veritable ninja-focused black ops force of Rioters gets into players hands are rare days. It's a feeling of letting go, of catharsis. Comments like this go a long way to refilling the bank to get back to work.

Ornn is a champion near and dear to my heart for many reasons. I hope to share more of his stories with you at some point (because there are more)!

Yeah Riot has bumbled a few voice over lines recently but I don't think Ornn has a single bad one.

I logged into the boards for the first time ever to echo this sentiment. Ornn's lore and theme are absolutely perfect. The folk tales read exactly like folk tales. Not once did it feel like someone trying to imitate. When I finished them, I had tears in my eyes. Ornn is basically my spirit animal.

I even love his voice lines and personality. The only remotely negative thing I can say about the champion is the actor that voices him. For such a deep, gruff, complex character, I think the actor came across bland and just didn't put enough inflection in his dialogue. Revoice him with Travis Willingham and he'll be perfect in every way imaginable.

Thank you.
