Why is there currently no multi-armed Champion? (Viktor doesn't count)

Shokan

When looking at the roster, I notice there's nothing that could reference the Shokan from Mortal Kombat, or perhaps certain gods from Hinduism. Namely, having multiple arms with which to wield multiple weapons.

Too generic, or not worth a Champion?

I dunno, I just finished watching some Mortal Kombat X Goro gameplay. He might be low-tier, but he can still kick ass in the right hands. https://youtu.be/Hf5BcpLmYns

Ehh, hard to call them arms and not claws. Besides, he doesn't use them to hold things other than wine glasses.

Chogath Elise Viktor WAT!?

Cho'gath: Claws

Elise: Spider legs

Viktor: A mechanical attachment to his body which is used for day to day tasks like reaching for the proper tool, wiping oil off his mask, and holding a light for him to read. Also, OP said he does not count

Yeah noticed this too. I guess the problem is that its on the one hand difficult to animate,on the other hand they might just not find the right character type for such a champ.

I mean just having multiple arms isn't gonna make the champion stand out,so there has to be a bit more than that.

How long have you been under the assumption that the third arm is the only extra appendage?
