Between the Shadow Isles and the Void, which one would be the most powerful?

Pretty much as the title says. I know there a lot of factors involved, but I am curious as to what those factors are and how they have an effect on which of these powers would come out on top?

Who'd win:

EXTRA DIMENSIONAL REALM OF HORROR AND EXISTENTIAL NONEXISTENCE

or

One spooky ghost island

The spooky ghost island is able to turn the horrors of the void into spooky ghost horrors, tho.

I'd like to believe that, but is there an actual source on this?

Void easily.

Powerful beings like Aspect, Ascended and Mordekaiser can overwhelm the Black Mist and be not affected by it but nothing stands against the Void. Its power consumes everything. Probably even Nagakabouros.

Mordekaiser can actually control the Black Mist (pls Riot when you rework him add this into his kit to match his lore)

There's also the fact that the Black Mist is confined to a single part of Runeterra and can be held at bay. The Void operates on a cosmic scale and could unravel reality given the opportunity.

It's power consumes everything.

As far as we know, the black mist is able to corrupt void creatures. So it seems that the void creatures would actually get consumed by the black mist, not vice versa.

Voidborns are nothing compare to the Void. Actually, not even they can survive against the Void for far too long. Void consumes everything but voidborns are not invincible.

So it is Void >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Shadow Isles > Voidborns.

True that, I thought this discussion is mostly based on if we led their legions fight each other, which would be voidborns for the void.

Or what kind of scenario do you imagine to let the void have direct influence here?

Void rifts can open anywhere. So It is not impossible to have a void rift in Shadow Isles. It would be interesting lol. But I think Shadow Isles would have no chance as even the Ascended had a hard time to close it. And they are cosmos-related.

I don't think Void would listen against necromancy.

Yeah, obviously even undead beings are existant beings that can be deleted by the Void, but what of the Voidborn themselves? How would the creatures of the Void fare against the denizens of the Shadow Isles?

That is pretty much what I had in mind. I could have probably specified that when I made the post, my bad.

Yeah, I am pretty much interested in how the interaction between a Voidborn and a Shadow Isles' Black Mist would play out. I am already convinced that the Void itself is this all-consuming thing that can barely be stopped, but the beings themselves don't have that same power, right?

Obviously the Void.

This shouldn't even be a contest.

But could a Voidborn itself possibly be affected by the Black Mist? We already know that Voidborns are existant, living beings. Could the Black Mist possibly affect them, even as far as to corrupt them and turn them to one of their own?

I don't think Voidborn are "Alive" in the same sense that something like humans are so I don't think they can be corrupted by the Black Mist.

I am pretty sure when a voidborn dies their body evaporate so there won't be anything left to become undead.

The void is literally a dimension an energy that devours everything in its path. While the Shadow isles are just a missclick from a mortal dude

Not gonna lie, that made me chuckle a bit.

Void OP. Even though I have to remind everyone that Mordekaiser does Punch above his Weight by quite a bit

Pale Mask1 votes

Quite a few Shadow Isles champions do that, but they really can't match the Void.

Mordepool1 votes

Idk actually. Since They can reanimate undead creatures. They could reanimate Void creatures and then Potentially Beat them

Fasmodey1 votes

Don't worry, It is more of Void being "shredder of realities" and something unbelivably dangerous than the Black Mist being a child toy. Everything is joke against the Void. Aspect + Aurelion Sol + the Ascended + Spirit Gods. No exception.

Void. No contest. The simple fact that the Shadow Isles can exist within the same realm as Runeterra and NOT literally annihilate it by simple existing says it all.

Considering that most of the residents of the Shadow Isles are already insane, the Void's typical effect would be worthless.

In addition, you can't exactly eat a ghost, soooo...

It's possible the Void could eventually adapt to whatever the fuck is going on over there, but for the interim at least, I'm fairly certain the Shadow Isles would be on top.

In defense of the Shadow Isles, they are more organized than the Voidborns and their attacks towards the humans are more habitual than the attacks that the Voidborns do. And by that i mean invasions of a place, not a random creature biting a dude.

After all, the Harrowing occurs almost all the years, and it can happen anywere, anytime, not only in Bilgewater or October as some people think... In other hand, the Void "invaded" a place only once, and it was because they were "invited" by the Icathians... sure, they destroyed the place, but is not something that can happen in any moment.

Aurelion Sol, the creator of Runeterra, literally got scared when he saw The Void. I think we have a clear winner
