Kled Lore: Could Kled have gotten some powers from Aatrox?

I made another video on a channel I recently made: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRVad15_O-w basically explaining all my thoughts on Kled but i'll summarize this Aatrox theory here. So if you want to look at some more reasoning/analysis go watch the video.

So we all know Kled is Noxian folk hero, but where did he get all of this power to earn every accolade possible, and never back down in a fight (and he's fought in every campaign since the founding of Noxus). Yes, obviously Riot is making it quite clear that he is a folk hero and these might be exaggerated, but its confirmed he was around when Sion was too because he quotes saying he "liked (Sion) better when (Sion) was alive".

How does this get to Aatrox? Well after his confrontation with Aatrox Tryndamere mastered the barbaric ways and learned not to give up a fight just as much as Kled, even if it means death. Kled shows a lot of bloodlust through his sound barrier breaking screaming he does when he's fighting. When Aatrox showed up in the Protectorate vs Magelord war, he caused "The warriors to find themselves imbued with a potent thirst for battle. They followed Aatrox into the fray, each fighting with the furious strength of ten until they had won a most unlikely victory.".

Now we saw a scene of Kled fighting dozens of noxian soldiers, "with the furious strength of ten", in the reveal Riot put out. We also know that there are OLD tales in Noxian war poems Ezreal found that speak of a Darkin figure with a drawing of Aatrox. Kled is a very OLD yordle, said to have been around Noxus while it was being founded. He could have been around during the time that Aatrox made an appearance.

Obviously it's not 100% true, but i think its still a possibility

prob worth mentioning Aatrox was the game designer's previous champ... And I tend to troll my own previous work and the rest of the core DNAs (Design, Narrative, & Art) in VO.

Well, lets see some points that i gather while listening to the video:

  • The theory about Du Couteau is wrong because Kled was figthing for Noxus even before Du Couteau were born. The Yordle is older than Noxus itself.
  • The Theory of Aatrox may be wrong as well for many reasons: First of all, Kled is a Yordle and yordles are "enemies" of Tahm Kench... and The Catfish demon is friend of Aatrox, so, i highly doubt that Kled would care about Aatrox at all... In fact, the other reason of why i doubt of this theory is because of this:

Kled knows Aatrox (because Kled has been participating in every Noxian war), but he do not respect Aatrox.

  • I think that you are right about the yordles

Very disrespectful toward Aatrox,however just because Kled is so old is already suspicious,there is no way a yordle could have such a lifespan and I'm pretty sure Riot never said they are timeless or immortal

Kled gets his "power" from straight up paranoia and bring intensely territorial.

He may not know who aatrox is even. he is just saying how stupid and dumb he thinks it is to drink blood from battle. Other then that i dont think he knows anything about him.

Also he is rivals with every single champion in the game. because anybody that trespasses on his land is considered an enemy to him, and also he only wants skaarl as his true friend and the only friend he could ever have or trust.
