This thing might be outdated, as are things like the Friends/Foes Relationships system (it probably is, considering how Narrative doesn't want us to know what Amumu really is just yet/ever, especially with his new Bio).

He clearly is a yordle

GreenLoreJul 28, 20162 votes

Uhm whats so clearly about that?He is covered in bandages and possibly deformed thanks to the curse.

Also keep in mind his character model is outdated,so before you say "he has the proportions of a yordle" look at how annie used to look: http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb57088/leagueoflegends/de/images/d/d5/Annie-Render.png

The proportions of his head are clearly bigger than Annie or Nunu.

yeah but amumu was originally supposed to be yordle,by now you can argue that that might have been retconned.

SukishooJul 28, 20161 votes

Yup, once was a Yordle but with the recent lore changes it makes you wonder what he is even more. They mention Boy, Yordle and all sorts of stuff in there now, so it's a bit of a mystery.

SukishooJul 28, 20161 votes

Annie was a Yorlde!~ It has been found here and now! WE KNOW THE TRUTH! XD

Tell me, why else would Poppy taunt him with the Yordle quote? And why are even Riot employees drawing him on ''all-yordle-on-one-picture-pictures''? That's enough evidence to me, I really don't know how delusional you must be to still wonder about that.

Because she assumes he is a yordle? Its been stated that no one is exactly sure if Amumu is a yordle or not,so people are just gonna adress him as what they personally belief.

Jaliyah TungleJul 30, 20163 votes

Because she assumes? Because she fucking assumes? Dude what. Why do you have to make everything so unnecessarily complicated when we already have facts? He is a yordle and I don't have any doubt in that, and it has nothing to do with ''personal belief''. It's just thinking straight and not changing things the way I want to because I like them better that way. That's just not how it works man.

His lore clearly says that no one knows what he is for sure and that some think he is a yordle,while others believe he is a human child.

They also likely keep the yordle interactions for him as a reference to his original lore where he was indeed a yorlde.

I feel like talking to a wall

Well at least we have that in common

Retconned lore is not fact anymore. In the past, it was a fact he was a Yordle. With his lore update this year, the only fact we have about him is that he's a small mummy, buried in a fairly regal grave in Shurima.

Because he might be a Yordle.

GreenLoreJul 22, 20161 votes

Likely because he was a yordle and not a walking wasteland in his original lore.

WoonStruckJul 30, 20161 votes

Being a Yordle from centuries before a certain Yordle civilization was established in no way ties him to that Yordle civilization.

He should not be associated with Bandle City unless Riot is making another straight tie from whatever desert Amumu was originally from to Bandle City. That's not even considering the retcon.

With the Shurima retcon, he has absolutely no business being associated with Bandle City at all.

GreenLoreJul 30, 20161 votes

The thing is that the official site isn't updated regularly.

He was a Yordle when the site was updated initially(which was even before the retcon) and still has only his short lore there when normally he should have his full lore there.

There are other champs who have similar problems(heck Leona still has her original lore on her page,despite the fact that she already has a new full lore)

WoonStruckJul 30, 20161 votes

The fact still stands that an ancient Yordle from before the city was created (even in the original lore) should not be associated with a Yordle City, especially if he doesn't live there.

GreenLoreJul 30, 20161 votes

The thing is that in the original lore he didn't have a specific place where he lived. I guess they just put him there before they had any idea what they wanted to do with him exactly.
