> Bard "speaks" the way he does because, to ordinary beings or beings simply not worthy and cannot understand what Bard is saying because it might risk the future. The best way describing it is that Bard actually speaks the language the people of Runeterra are using, but his voice will sound distorted to other beings because they're not meant to understand him.
So who do you think can undertstand him?
Sharjo10 votesEveryone, if he decides you're worth talking to.
...
No seriously, according to Riot if Bard was talking to you personally you'd garner what the hell he was saying. You probably wouldn't understand the sounds in a chime-word sense but you'd have an understanding of whatever point he was trying to convey to you just as well as if he had spoken perfect english/spanish/italian/shuriman/whatever.
On a more personal level though I'd imagine Soraka could understand him, considering their nature as being of a celestial nature, even if Bard's way less of a physical entity than Soraka.
PokladnicaZla2 votesActually if you read what I posted from a RIOTer,you will see that Bard does speak our language,but it sounds distorted because humans aren't meant to undertsand him.
My question is,can Soraka or any other inhuman creatures understand him(Demons,Yordles,Ascendent,Undead...)?
Celio Hogane HD5 votesI mean probably, the bard is a nameless douchebag.

That does make sense.
Celio Hogane HD3 votesOf course it does, everything we know about the bard is making "The bigger things" like Oh look humans dying, better just ignore then and get this powerfull device.
I mean i could save all of them too but nah.
PokladnicaZla1 votesBard purpose is to keep the balance in the word.If he would have somehow saved the villagers or defeated the army he would have made one ˝side˝ stronger then the other and would have changed events in the future.
It doesn't make sense,but if you ever watched Dr.Who you would know what I'm talking about....
Celio Hogane HD3 votesyes, so what? Keeping ballance at all cost is basically being a dick.
is like OH NOPE, IM NOT GOING TO SAVE THIS CAT FROM DROWNING, IT WILL DESTROY THE BALANCE OF CATS IN THE WORLD.
That is why in D&D a True Neutral is sometimes called True Dick.
PokladnicaZla1 votesIf the cat doesn't have any relavence to the future event,the cat will dorwn then...
Thats how balance works.Youd don't save the ones that you hold dear,you save the ones that matter for the good of the future.
Celio Hogane HD1 votesYes and that is being a dick.

James Stone7 votesSoraka is a good bet. She used to be divine, after all. There might even be a chance that she was his disciple, and lost her godlike powers because she interfered in human bussiness, something Bard is against.
Sona might understand him thanks to her musical predisposition and telepathic communication (What I assume is happening now that there's no such thing as a Summoner Link), or Bard's mind can be so above her it can jam her brain permanently.
Some of the other god-like beings might be able to communicate. The Ascended, Xerath, Tahm Kench, Aatrox...
PokladnicaZla1 votesAlthoguth I agree with the possibility of Ascendeds and Xerath,I don't see why demons could undertsand him,many think the same way. Why is that?

Because they are both timeless entities?

There's somebody in Japan my age. Doesn't mean I understand them.

I was thinking of a power level type of thing. Tahm Kench and Aatrox are both ageless and powerful, so I imagine they'd be able to understand Bard's scrambled language, either by remembering it from forgotten times or from merely knowing what he means.
PokladnicaZla1 votesI find it hard to imagine.Being immortal doesn't add up with all knowing.
James Stone1 votesI find it hard to imagine.Being immortal doesn't add up with all knowing.
No, but it makes you old. Perhaps older than the First Rune War, if such a thing still exists. And a being that is that powerful and that old probably has been around long enough to see a few of Bard's interventions, maybe even be the cause of one or two (For Aatrox, I find it real hard to imagine one or two of the massive wars he turned the tables didn't involve some powerful MacGuffin, and Tahm Kench struck a lot of deals with a lot of powerful people, maybe even those that owned one of the things Bard was set to protect). Even if not, these beings are ancient enough and probably enough to know the big players at the celestial stage, like Bard and pre-banishment Soraka, and I find it hard to believe someone like that doesn't at least understand the creatures they're dealin' with.
PokladnicaZla1 votesComing into contact with them,is the same as udnertsnading them. I agree with you on the point that Than and Aa had most likely some interaction with him,but I higly dpubt that can communicat with him.

PokladnicaZla1 votesIts not that I don't ship BradxSona,but Sona plays an instrument while Bard makes chime noises. Even thought I see the conection,I doubt that she could understand him.
Decrit3 voteswell, then maybe somebody with a strong extralinguistical communication skill, maybe tied to telepaty.h
a summoner then! oh wait...

kJs2 votesPeople of Runeterra? Well void champions aren't people of Runeterra so I'm betting some of my money on them. The Overlord of the Void, who we don't know yet, probably could.
Telepathics might be able to understand bard.
Soraka could probably do it.
Any musician-scientist that can be bothered enough to decipher what each tone/pitch/timbre that he makes translates to. Maybe even Sona can understand or communicate similarly to Bard.
Celio Hogane HD1 votesi think there is no such thing as overlord of the void.
Mister Mackey1 votesOnly Station, The smartest mind in the entire universe could.

Catastrop1 votesNo one. His voice is literally like that because everyone is just too...insignificant...if that's the right word to describe it.
PokladnicaZla1 votesBut is everbody really so ˝insignificant˝ or is there someone who could undertsand him? Soraka,perhaps?
SaltyToplaneGoat1 votesAatrox and Tahm Kench are also possible...
