Annual Reminder: There is STILL no old-ass grandma champion

Some ideas to get the noggin' joggin' -

  1. Old witch style character like Baba Yaga in Kumungo Jungle bogs or swamp
  2. wise old but badass master of some Ionian thing or style
  3. Lux's grandma
  4. some targon cosmic shit that looks like an old woman
  5. Mrs. Claus

EDIT:: Lux's grandma would be the most bad-ass mage in demaglio the only one legally allowed to use magic since Demaglio is cuck-town and hates mages but Grandma knows what's up

Yeah, it's a pretty widely used archetype that's not really been hit on by League, I mean hell, they pop up constantly in just about any anime or kid's show you watch.

I mean, one of my favorites is Yubaba: https://i.redd.it/x1mfcbzi6go11.jpg

And then let's not forget this bitch Hama in Avatar. She was crazy fucked up: https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/evilbabes/images/4/49/Hama_forest.png/revision/latest?cb=20170409212520

Also, #3 shouldn't be Lux's granny. It should be Braum's Mother. "Mother always says - DON'T LOSE"

WE want an old stereotypical witch with a big nose and a hump on her back while walking with a stick!

Well, Camille was league's best shot at it, and it missed due to, well, "sex sells".

That's also why an "old" female champion will never happen, in my opinion.

Unless you consider legitimate Swain's peculiar notion of eldership: looking 35 with white hair pretending to be 55.

I'd like to see a true forest witch as a champion.

Also, we don't have a mother champion. A real mother that has a biological child.

I actually created a champion design for my application to Riot that was an old mage woman from Noxus that was the teacher of Swain and was both far kinder than you'd expect of a Noxian but also took no shit from people.

I'm still predicting the Yordle will be an old lady, but I guess that still doesn't count as a human grandma-looking witch.

I'd LOVE a spiteful, old hag-witch.

Listen I know there are some people saying "being an old lady is no one's fantasy" but speak for yourselves please. If there was a way I could play as sweet little old lady support giving cookies and hugs to my teammates that would be ideal. And extremely cute. I wanna be the team grandma dammit.

some of riots lessons learned over the years included one very important one -- dont make a champ unmarketable. trundle and urgot had to be redesigned because their visuals were completely despised by the players. why go out of their way to make somehting that almost nobody actually wants, when they can pump out another woman with cannonball tits that teens will buy 10 skins for

dont really have an old granpa anymore either right? I mean we had swain but they reworked him into a 30 year younger version of himself. He doesnt even limp now and he looks menacing now when b4 the transformation was a surprise. The only champion who is relatively old compared to there life span is camile

What are you talking about, Camille is like 80, Lissandra is several hundred years old, Illaoi is like in late 40s or early 50s...
