Strongest Factions

Which factions do you think are the strongest? My guess would be Shurima due to the amount of ascended there are.

My Faction Power Ranking:

  1. Shurima
  2. Noxus
  3. Demacia
  4. Ionia
  5. Zaun
  6. Piltover
  7. Void
  8. Frelijord
  9. Bandle City
  10. Shadow Isles
  11. Bilgewater You could sneak Targon anywhere on there tbh they got the most op members but it doesn't seem like they'd be involved in wars and stuff.

I dont understand why Shadow Isles is low. I mean, have you read Shadow and Fortune? Bilgewater got raped by the Black Mist, and it is getting worse every year, Illaoi saved them, but still the Shadow Isles spirits are op, they cant be affected by physical attacks, the expection being demacian stell or Petricite, belong this you need to make a magical attack to actually hurt them. But in Mordekaiser's color story he smashed a Demacian armor like nothing, if we count him, not even demacian material is enough to completly stop them:

“Demacian steel,” sneered Mordekaiser. “It will not save you.”

He stepped forward and brought his spiked mace down toward the knight’s skull. The strike was met with a two-handed parry, though the power of it forced the knight to his knees. Mordekaiser towered over him.

And I'm not sure aout the Void place, the power of the Void can vary, for example, in Icathia it had A LOT of food, so the Void was able to have a giant army of Voidborns and the corruption of the land was even stronger. Now compare it to the Void summoned by Malzahar, it isnt receiving as much food as it received during Icathia fall, so it is weak compared to the Void the Ascended faced. So I need to know, you're placing the Void as 7 in its actual state? In other words, the Void rits that Malzahar spreaded around Shurima and the Watchers trapped are a 7, or a full invasion of the Void in which it received a lot of food is a 7? The second one is just an example, what I want is a more specific description of what you putted in 7.

Are you considering Freljord the divided faction that is right now, or an united Freljord in a war against other nations? Same question for Shurima, Ionia and Bilgewater.

We dont know shit about Bandle so I gonna ignore it.

Sincerely, I would consider Zaun above Piltover, in Piltover weapons that are way too dangerous are banished as said in Caitlyn's color story:

“Your previous thefts were meaningless in themselves, but when I looked at them as part of a larger scheme, it seemed like you were gathering components to build a version of Vishlaa’s Hexylene Caliver,” said Caitlyn.

She knelt beside Devaki to place a hand on his rigid body.

“And as we all know, that weapon was outlawed as being too dangerous, wasn’t it?...

And consedering the map description of Chemtech:

Chemtech performs like hextech, but is far more dangerous, toxic and explosive.>

I would say that it is more efficient as a weapon than Hextech. Zaun has far more people used to fight and a bunch of augmented people, in general they have more "army" and their "army" has "soldiers" with bodies meant to be offensive. They dont just carry weapons, they are weapons. And we saw what Singed's chemicals made in the Ionian war. IMO Zaun seems far more efficient in a war than Piltover.

About Noxus and Demacia, would Demacia necessarily need to attack other factions? Thats an important point because Demacia has mostly defensive forces.

TLDR I need more information in most of them, but Shadow Isles inst the last one and Zaun should be above Piltover.

Shurima has fallen pretty far, I don't think they would be at the top. They have 2 ascended (that we know of) left, since Renekton is insane and Xerath is a bad guy. I would move them down to either 2,3 or even 4. Personally I think 3, but I could accept either way.

Which criteria? Do you just count the champions of the respective champions or do you mean the total power of the faction itself with all they have?

If it's the latter, then Shadow Isles and Void definitely have to be way higher on that list. Shadow Isles has a clear advantage over most human civilizations, simply because everyone dying in battle against them could possibly be corrupted to fight for them instead.

The Void is extremely powerful, this place is filled with terrifying creatures and if they manage to find a way to flood runeterra with all they got, there would be huge trouble for everyone to fight them.

You also forgot another one of the great power houses: Mount Targon. Every aspect is basically on demigod level and they have Aurelion Sol as a secret weapon, definitely stronger than stuff like Demacia.

If we are counting the Void as a faction it should bu on the number one spot.

Also Shurima isn't as strong as before so..

void and shadow isle are pretty strong

literally every shadow isle champion is either op or useless like azir….im guessing the harrowing takes place on certain patches when riot decided to buff them..

Holy shit bro never thought you would choose Noxus above void actually Pepega

The most logical rankings is

  1. Shurima which had ascended which was lead by mighty Azir and other ascended which became darkins. Strong champions from this Region - Aatrox, Azir, Xerath, Nasus and Renektorn (Only mentioning the strongest ones)

  2. Shadow Isles You might call me dumb for not calling void in 2nd place but since Mord can enslave those who he kill he might just be one of the strongest ones out there. Strong champions from this Region - Mord, Yoric, Karthus and Thresh (Only mentioning the strongest ones)

  3. Void has Malzahar which became the leader of the cult of the void which also has cho'gath a gigantic monster beyond any size ever seen Strong champions from this Region - Malzahar, Cho'gath, Kassadin and Vel'koz (Only mentioning the strongest ones)

Only giving top 3

Taking into account the nature of the Void, it should be in a very advantegous number 1 position.

I think that the Shadow Isles and Bandle City are the strongest factions...

The Shadow Isles for obvious undead reasons.

.... But Bandle City? Why?

Well, let me explain:

  • First of all, Rumble created more than one Mech... in fact he is the dean of a school that creates Mechs, that means that normal yordles can have access to war machines with ease.
  • Second, Bandle has the Bandle Gunners, Tristana is just one of them... That Magical Cannon Machinegun that the Bandle Gunners have is WAY more powerfull than swords and things like that, one shot of that thing should be able to blow up tons of enemies, now imagine a whole army with those weapons. I think that yordles also use ROFLCOPTERs in the army.
  • Third point is that, well, the yordles are magical creatures with innate magic and, even if it does not look like it... it seems like they are very strong phisically, again, Tristana carries a metallic gun that is bigger than herself with ease.
  • The most important thing is... that other factions cant attack them, because no one knows how to enter there.
  • At least, the portals that the yordles use, let them teleport anywhere... So, if they wanted to, they could make surprise attacks from the inside of the enemy faction and leave the place with no problem at all.

And all the other factions have enemies... Bandle only has Veigar, and he barely counts.

I strongly disagree with your ladder... 1.Void 2.Freljord 3.Shurima 4.Noxus .... Sorry Noxus is underneath freljord because freljord is home to Demigods,a powerful witch, and superhumans!
