An influence on Ivern's character that hasn't been noticed yet
I was a bit surprised to see that nobody still noticed that Ivern looks very much like one of the characters of Dr. Seuss.
His goofy movements coupled with melodic way of speaking definitely remind me of The Cat in the Hat or the Grinch etc. He doesn't speak in rhymes, true, but his lines are still melodic. It would take just small extending to achieve the full effect, sort of like: _ "The cleverness of mushrooms always surprises me", said Ivern, then went on to tend to green grooves and pet a fern._
His Candy King skin even reminds me of the forests from the Lorax

I bet that this was intentional; when asked how should Ivern feel, the answer was, he should feel a bit like the character from those children's stories. Players this way subconsciously attach to these characters. When I heard Ivern's voice-over, I decided that I liked it and that I'd probably play him, but only later did I realize, it was because he behaved and spoke like one of Dr. Seuss's characters.
Are there any Champions that you decided to play simply because they felt like something you know and love? I'm very interested to hear, because I bet there are. I think that players form the strongest attachments to Champions who feel like something they love, not just because "they look badass" or something.
