Kled is one of the most boring champs imo

Off Meta Evan··3 votes·3,270 views

So the League has a vast roster of characters. Pirates, ninjas, vikings, Demons, Gods, Angels, Satan himself and even freaking space dragons. even other yordles have something super cool about them. like kennen is a goddamn pikachu, or veigar being a mage that can contort time and space. Kled is literally just a redneck, like... thats his whole character in a nutshell, a racist redneck with no real redeeming qualities..... oh boy..... how... interesting....

Eh on the other hand I find space gods and star dragons boring. Really anything where the explanation is hand waving and saying 'magic.' But a Cossack or reiter? Hell yeah give me some of that.

Of course outside of a little bit of his design Kled isn't either of those things. He's a loud screechy furball. But he's funny and guys who want to find their champions funny will enjoy him.

Or in other words, it's fine you feel that way. Not all champions are designed with you in mind.

Too bad Kled and Skaarl are also magical beings.

I never said I found them interesting. I said I find Cossacks and reiters interesting and then say Kled isn't one.

But that's missing my actual point: Not all champions will be to your liking. Oh well, better luck next time.

I never said I'm against Kled either lol. Too many misunderstanding.

I just made it clear and gave my opinion that I don't like his theme. Anyone who wanna enjoy can enjoy Kled, I'm totally supportive for them. But he is against my preferences.

Gotcha, speaking of misunderstandings I thought you were Asome232 whose original post seemed patronizing to those who like the character. That's why I brought up my 'message' again.

I mean meta champs like Zed, Rengar, Lux, Azir, Yasuo, Shaco, Yi etc. Are all considered fun to play because they either have strong poke, blocks, traps, invisibility or decoys and escapes. Now that's fine but to me and me alone I find that cheap and easy.

IMO I like top lane champs (despite it being considered the most boring lane) because these champs don't necessarily have those features. Tank champs are like Ring Fighters, they throw a few punches around and then back off to heal up. A few seconds later you go back at it untill some one comes out victorious over the other. The 1v1 lasts longer, the brawls are more fair and once your fed you can act like Optimus Prime every team right.

I dislike champs with high movment speed or escapes, the kind that hit and run when ever shit gets too heated. Or worse the kind that use that escape to kill under tower. Sure thats not boring like meele champs but at least they're not coward fighters. None of that quick burst damage shit either that popular role champs have like assassin's and mages do. Yawn

Ps. IMO

I was refering more so to his look and lore, like he does NOT look like a creature that could compete with gods nor does his kit reflect that. however i get what you're talking about with top lane. i don't however enjoy too many tank fights cause they just go on forever. i typically like full ad fighters vs other full ad fighters like Garen vs Tryndamere

I mean if you boil Jhin's bio down, he's just an psychotic sharpshooter, who thinks his killings as an art form.

Jinx, in a nutshell looks like a model for the front page of SuicideGirls.com.

Heck even popular Ekko is basicly a cliche ghetto street rat.

Sion, just an undead juggernaut.

Rek'sai, is just a glorified alien mole.

Tahm Kench, a fat catfish demon...woah soooo complex and interesting.

Poppy, she's so god damn humble that she's blind to get own heroism.

Taric, a flamboyant paladin.

I could go on and on and on. The more I do the simpler it gets to describe them in three of four words. Kled is no different and if that's becoming a problem you might want to play a different game.

but at least i can see them actually being in a league of LEGENDS.

jihn- a top tier op sniper, sounds gud enough to be here

jinx - i actually don't like her either, she's literally just... a person with a gun... but CRAZY... even though jihn is that but with a scholarly twist that makes him actually interesting imo

ekko- a guy who can contort space and time, sounds like someone op enough to be in the league

sion- a giant unkillable unstoppable zombie that can send people flying with just the swing of his axe

rek sai- a fucking land shark

tahm kench- a giant fish that can eat you whole.

Poppy- while on first glance doesn't seem to belong she's strong enough to send literally anyone flying back miles away

Taric- a man who was blessed by an astral force from a top a magical mountain.

for the most part their lore and design hit a theme of "OH SHIT these guys are all really busted and could kill an ordinary person really easily." Kled however, is a tiny furry midget that brings ordinary bear traps to a fight with gods Nasus Azir angels Kayle the embodiment of death Kindred and space dragons AurelionSol. my problem is that there is nothing that really makes him seem like an actual threat. like how ya gonna bring a fucking simple ass bear trap to a fight with shadow ninjas. one seems WAY more unbalanced than the other. its the same reason why i hate Graves he's literally just some dude with a gun... and thats it. no insane in game feat that makes me go "OH thats why he's here." like Poppy where they show a display of ridiculousness like poppies R. he's just some dude on a goofy ass dinosaur.... k..

I really fail to comprehend your personal issue with Kled. I'm not really even defending him alone at this point.

Your complant seems like an issue confined to almost you alone. I really doubt any players get up set that Kled throws bear traps or Graves shoots with a (hextech powered) shotgun. Or that a skilled sharpshooter could be more eligible in a battle then another gun lovin maniac.

Lol once consisted with a majority of ordinary warriors (Xin Zhao & Olaf), mages (Lux & TF), guardians (Alister & Janna) and marksmen (Tristana & Corki) in its early days, with the exception of some supernatural characters. If Kled came out back then would you be more forgiving?

I also find him uninteresting. The most boring champion in last 10 except his voice.

Even though I know that Riot wanna balance the game between dark grim, lighthearted, severity and amusement, being complete joke is not a good concept. They accept too that he is meme of League of Legends. He is Teemo v2 imo.

We need perfect champions like Jhin more.

How is he racist?

Off Meta Evan1 votes

look at his interactions between champs, he essentially just says " you're not a noxian fuck you."

Warlord Dienekes1 votes

I think that's nationalist, technically.

Off Meta Evan1 votes

you'd be right if he wasn't like that to OTHER noxians he straight up has a line thats "you're not a REAL noxian." dude's a dickhead

Warlord Dienekes1 votes

That's still nationalism. Or perhaps national idealism would be more accurate. To be racist he would have to designate individuals by race, which he hasn't done, but by nationality and their adherence to his view of the national code.

Though yeah. He's a total dickhead.
