Is Ekko the first teenage champion?

Wolfeur··8 votes·7,990 views

Ekko seems to be like 15. Every other champion is either an adult (or young adult) or a child.

Is he the very first teenage champion in League of Legends history or am I forgetting someone?

Edit: Ezreal Jinx Lux MissFortune are not teenagers, they're young adults (at least 20 y-o)

Ezreal

Wolfeur4 votes

He's not a teenager. He's a young adult.

Sukishoo7 votes

He is in no way a teen. Voice is way too old and art work clearly shows a young adult.

I'm not sure about that myself. I know a few 16 year old boys that are taller, older looking, and have deeper voices than Ezreal. The kind of 16 year olds that sound like they hit puberty in kindergarden and sound like they are in their thirties.

Looking at Ezreal and comparing him with other champs with a similar body type - his model looks around the same age as Ekko if not a bit older. The other champs with a similar body type are bigger - taller - older looking, sounding, etc. (Lucian, Varus, and Talon come to mind, but there are a couple others.) looking at his splash arts, he looks like he is around the same age as Ekko imo. (especially the one right before the one we have now)

Ezreal being 16-18 is very possible, I don't think his voice is that old - I think it could easily belong to a 16-18 year old. The only thing that suggests he's older is his story and occupation -- and even then he could be 18 when we consider this is another world with a mixture of medieval, modern, post modern, futuristic -- but mostly a bit less advaned than we are. Its possible that people could get a job as an explorer and whatever much earlier than people in this world.

Tl;dr - I feel like Ezreal is around the 18 year old mark model size coupled with voice. 20 at absolute maximum. But ya'know, until he gets a visual update which what I just said could be completely overturned.

Ezreal and Lux are the only ones who could be teenagers,but like you said they are both most likely young adults. Well at least when it comes to human champs then he is the first teenager,I mean inhuman champs are kinda hard to judge(we don't know what a yordle teenager looks like).

Wolfeur1 votes

I think the only non-human we could argue about is Fizz , even though I think he's quite young. About yordles, since they all seem the be the same age (except Heimer, of course) and that Tristana probably has to be adult to be in the army, we can assume they're all adults.

Duke Anax1 votes

I think Lulu was a "teenager" (do Yordles even have the same lifespan?) when she got stuck in the Glade.

She kinda seems younger than the others (appearance wise, not just character), but not as young as Gnar.

Fizz could be, does seem quite young but definitely not as young as to be a child.

Wolfeur1 votes

Lulu was a young child when she left, I'm kinda sure of that.

Duke Anax1 votes

Then it might depend on how long it's been since she left the Glade.

She is definitely not a young child anymore, maybe a young teen.

Wolfeur1 votes

I think she actually didn't grow older there, but I'm not sure...

Duke Anax1 votes

Not while she was in there, but since she left.

Orianna was created to take the place of a teenage girl wasn't she? KogMaw seems like a teen Draven acts like a teen

Wolfeur10 votes

Orianna is a robot, can we really give an age to a robot? KogMaw is technically a baby Draven is Draven years-old.

Manufacture date

GreenLore1 votes

By that logic she would most likely be still a child not a teenager

Killstrado1 votes

That's how they always kept track of benders age on futurama so a child she is lol

Rivvy2 votes

If you don't consider Ezreal a teenager then you might as well forget about Ekko being a teenager.

As far as Lux goes, we don't know. "BUT SHE IS SUCESSFUL IN TEH ARMYRURURURUDUR" and Annie is a child that is used as a weapon.

There is such a thing as fiction.

Wolfeur3 votes

Ezreal is obviously way older than Ekko.

Annie may be used as a weapon, but she's also a psychopath. Lux is a commander and fine strategist in Demacia. This isn't comparable.

Jinx

GenoXx7 votes

Jinx is confirmed to be older than VI.....and vi is like 19 or 20 maybe

Strawberrycocoa1 votes

Really? She screams 16 years old to me.

GreenLore1 votes

Yes,she is older,even if it was said that she is only slightly older than Vi. Its just that she is quite skinny and behaves like a psychopathic child

Strawberrycocoa1 votes

Lord, knowing she's a full adult kind of makes Jinx creepier. XD

Ezreal Kennen Nunu willup is shown. the boy who actually controls the yeti is nunu and is confirmed a young boy/teen Lux Teemo Tristana

right. 1st teenager.

GreenLore3 votes

Ezreal is most likely a young adult. Kennens age is pretty hard to guess(cause he is a yordle and his face is covered most of the time) Nunu seems to be a kid,not a teenager Lux is again more likely a young adult Teemo and tristana seem to serve the yordle military so I guess they are also adult yordles.

Wolfeur1 votes

Ezreal and Lux are young adults. Tristana is a notorious and experienced member of a commando unit, not a teenager. Teemo has a romance with Tristana, meaning they have the same kind of age. Same for Rumble, btw. Kennen seems approximately as old as they are.

Can't tell for Nunu, I don't know anything about his possible age, but you say it's been confirmed. I can only trust you on this one.

NEVER trust on the internet

Sukishoo1 votes

Teemo is at least 40 and is with Trist so they are old XD

somebody told me Ashe and Nami were 16

Wolfeur1 votes

Maybe for Nami but Ashe is definitely not 16.

Sharjo4 votes

I feel like some people assume from Ashe's long bio that she's actually 15 because that story is set when she's 15, when in reality it's likely been a great many years since then and she's probably around 20-25 years old.

Lorinne1 votes

Wasn't she 19 when she married Trynd, according the Journal of Justice?

Or maybe I'm just thinking of that Korean LoL movie? Oo

Sharjo1 votes

You might be thinking of that movie, because I don't remember that. If she was 19 at the time, then she'd be about 24 now. I dunno, I feel like she was probably 20/21 when she married Tryndamere anyway so it likely doesn't matter that much.

Another thing you keep forgetting: Ekko's mental age and and corporal age might differ. His body seems to be rewinded in time, but his mind isn't (so he can remember the experience from another timeline and his enemy doesn't). In the video the difference is only a few seconds, but we have no idea how much he has used that power before and if it only was seconds...

his body isn't either

SaltyToplaneGoat3 votes

From the looks of the video it seems to move back, although he still seems to feel some "phantom pain" from his injuries. He got his arm freaking SMASHED. It would have looked VERY differently if it didn't turn back ^^

GreenLore2 votes

Doubt that You can see how he tries to avoid using his left arm after it got squashed,it just hangs there for most of the time.

SaltyToplaneGoat2 votes

Well, pain is a psycvhological thing. Simply moving it now would hurt too much I guess... The phantom pain from the time-travel must be extremly strong...

GreenLore2 votes

why would the pain still continue even after he recovered already?I mean I'd understand if he still felt it a few seconds after it,but he avoided moving his arm for the rest of the battle.

SaltyToplaneGoat2 votes

First of all: pain works psychologically. It's a warning mechanism of your mind that prevents you from using/further damaging an injuried body part. The problem: neither the human body nor the human mind are specifically designed for time-reversal. While the body turns back to the original state, the mind has some trouble with that. The injury might be gone, but the brain still signals "TONS OF PAIN, DON'T MOVE!" - even if the arm is completly fine.

If his mind would reverse together with his body he couldn't remember the time travel, making it pointless. Ergo: Body is reversed, the mind is not.

GreenLore1 votes

pain is psychological yes,but keep in mind that this can also work the other way around,if the brain realizes that there is no injury then he won't feel pain.

If his body would get reversed,then he knows about this,so his brain would also realize that it is getting healed and that the injury is gone,yet we see ekko still feeling his injuries and getting more and more exhausted whenever he goes back.

But well there will be most likely an Ekko Q&A in a few weeks,so we can just ask there for clarification.

Well, after hearing his voice lines, i guess that the thing that you are saying its true... since he knew Vi and Jinx (When Jinx was sane and Vi a Zaunite)

So, i guess that he must be the same mental age of Vi/Jinx (or at least close to them)
