Lore Wise: Who is the strongest Human in Runeterra?

After a lot of topics talking about "who is the most powerful champion" i decided to ask something different:

Who is the strongest human in Runeterra?

Before start, i will say that this thread does not consider: magic, armies, technology, changes in their biology, power of their weapons, etc.

The only thing that matters in this thread are the strength and skills with weapons(martial arts Etc) ... (maybe also strategy)

So... What is your opinion? Who is the stronger human?

According to this thread (and my own opinion) the list (for now) is:

0*) Braum Some people don't think that he is a human... but there is no proof about that. A weakness about him, is that he has almost no "fighting skills" aside from punching.

  1. Darius Garen ("popular" vote), MasterYi my own vote considering fighting skills.

  2. XinZhao He has been serving 2 kings of Demacia and a prince. He has fought against thousands of people.

  3. LeeSin "Master" of Udyr (And Jesse Perrings trained him)

  4. Yasuo Wind techniques are not magic.

  5. Pantheon SPARTA!

  6. Fiora 1V1 me noob

7?) Talon Katarina ... well.... they may be using magic...

  1. Jayce

  2. Draven DRAAAAAAAAAAAVEEEENNN

  • Please dont mention: Jax Olaf DrMundo Udyr Because: We dont know if Jax is a human. The "destiny" of Olaf is a bit vague (and those thunders are magic!). Mundo, even if he is human, uses "drugs". Udyr has help of spirits... so, they are outside of this.

  • Even if this thread does not consider power of the weapons, like the Runic Blade of Riven Riven, the mercury hammer of Jayce Jayce or the magical Door of Braum Braum. It takes into account the "ability of using a weapon"... So, if you think that Riven (for example) can defeat anyone with a "normal" sword or Braun with a normal door... well, put them in your "list"

  • Also: No guns/bows/Missiles allowed.... sorry ADCs. But, if you think that Graves (for example) can defeat someone with punches and kicks... or smashing someone with his gun... put him in your list. (Gangplank is a good example, he can use guns... but his main weapon is the sword.)

Garen Can lift the entire planet with one arm, no contest.

Then it has to be Braum , hands down. Dude punched through a mountain. You think something like an axe or a sword can stop him?

Darius But...you were supposed to be executed... Braum It is no problem. This happens to Braum all the time. Why don't you sit down and enjoy a cup of good goat's milk? Braum will make you a new axe himself.

No idea why people are saying Draven when literally the only thing he does is throw axes at defenseless prisoners.

I am going with Pre-Death Sion. Dude walked through an army, killed Jarvan 1's elite and then killed him all by himself.

I'd say Darius is the strongest, Brute force wise. Considering how high he can jump ulting, and that he knocked out Rengar bare handed in A New Dawn, as well as cutting through Leona 's shield(which was magically empowered).

So yeah. I think that Darius puts his money where his mouth is when it comes to strength.

If this was completely without weapons and armor I'd say Braum would be a top candidate.

However since we also take into account champs using their regular weapons(just without magical abilities),then it'll probably boil down to the badass normals in the league who simply use regular weapons,which would be Darius Draven (probably the only adc who'd be allowed to use his weapons :p),Fiora ,LeeSin ,Pantheon ,XinZhao ,Talon (not sure if his stealth would be considered magical though),Yasuo (his wind techniques are techniques,not magic)

Garen His ultimate is technically magic if it actually calls down "the might of demacia" in the form of a giant sword from the sky. and LeeSin 's sonic wave and tempest are blatant use of magic, which can be explained by him being a summoner in training (this part is no longer valid with the current lore so his use of magic for these abilities is in question) though admittedly both of these guys possess monstrous strength even without their magic given that garen can spin a giant sword for days and lee can kick chogath several teemos long.

I'm not sure if you're trying to argue who is the most powerful combatant or who is simply the strongest. if this is a contest of which human is better at fighting, the noxians dominate in that category with people like Talon, Darius, and Katarina (though if the cinematics are to be believed, she's a magic user) and you could argue that people like xin, yi or pantheon are the better combatants.

Now if we're talking brute strength it would be someone like braum or garen. BUT if this skin promo is to be believed the strongest champion would be Vi with no contest. with her gauntlets on she weighs 8,140 lbs. assuming she doesn't just weigh 4 tons without the gloves this is an insane amount of weight to be able to just casually punch around.

Pantheon can take on entire armies by himself and has the strength to jump higher than any other champion.

Draven throws axes with such skill that they can (for lack of better words) street shark their way across SR and have the precision to incorporate a counterspin that makes them stop and then return to him. Yes Braum can break a mountain but I'm sure Draven could sculpt the same mountain into Mt. Dravenmore.

If we consider the simple physical strenght then surely the strongest human of all is Braum

Katarina should be up there "From childhood, Katarina displayed a natural gift for combat." and also "Furious at her mistake, Katarina set off to complete her original task. Returning to the camp, she spied her now heavily guarded target and realized a stealthy kill was no longer possible. Drawing her blades, Katarina swore the officer would die, no matter the cost. She leapt into battle, unleashing a whirlwind of steel. One by one blades flashed and guards fell, each strike bringing her one step closer to the officer. A final thrown dagger restored her honor." she also escaped afterwards http://gameinfo.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/game-info/champions/katarina/#champion-lore

Sion is this guy still consider human?

How about half humanShyvana ?

Taric Leona Their armor gotta be pretty heavy?

I think its unfair that you don't consider Olaf when Garen send a giant magical sword from the sky unto his opponent.

Riven.
