Don't you love it when a champions gameplay is the total opposite of his/her lore?

Oh hey, her we got Malphite , his lore states him to be an extredimensional earth elemental, from a dimension of absolutely harmony and peace. What's his gamplay? Beat the shit out of enemies with generic tank kit #435 while having some really unfitting lines.

Or Lux . In lore she's basicially the Demacian James Bond: sneak behind enemy lines by using her super talent for light magic for STEALTH! and get out again. I'm not for removing her ult or something (because technically if no ones surives to tell the tale it IS stealth...). But... can't we have a little bit of that secret-agent theme in her kit? And not just a spellthief skin? I mean, comeon remove her shield, rework her E a little and give her a skill like Yasou's windwall that stealths units behind it... that would be my approach...

Or Leblanc . The leader of the fearsome black rose, master of schemes and intriges. I would exect mind games, illusions and trickery when playing this champ... not "hey, it's LB, random burst mage #46".

What other champions come to mind? I don't think that those three are the only ones...

Actually leblanc is quite fitting for her lore: For one there is her passive that creates a double which only exists to confuse your enemy. then there is her W,which allows her to appear and disappear,its like she is in 2 locations at the same time.and while she can't transform into others like she can in the lore,she can mimic herself with her ult,which also allows her to play mindgames with her enemies since they can't predict how she is gonna use her ult.

Aatrox is suppose to make people bloodthirsty. In gameplay he draws blood from people and meteor strikes them. Aatrox is my top main but i bought him because of his lore. I like the kit, but wheres the Friendly blood lust lol?

Swain being able to transform in to a giant bird springs to mind. Always seemed odd to me.

My favorite is how in Jinx's lore, she complete outmaneuvers Vi and makes her look like a fool. In game, Vi deletes Jinx easier than almost anyone else.

That would be kinda cool, tweaking E to bend light and make allies behind/inside it invisible.
