Top 10 Most Powerful Champions [Lore]

Igglet·Mar 26, 2016·8 votes·38,113 views

I've made these 'Top 10 Most Powerful Champions' threads in the past, but, now, I decided to make one that is a bit prettier and also add a few new champions. I've made most of these lists on EUNE/EUW Boards, but I honestly think I'll get a bit more attention here. I am only covering champions who's lore isn't connected to the Institute of War, and I will also look at the champions in their current state.

#10 Aatrox http://static.tumblr.com/e5caaa1bcdfc31a5efa47671606a52ae/dxc6n0v/lV9n2y1qo/tumblr_static_neuer-champion-aatrox.jpg "This battle will be my masterpiece."

This ancient of war is as old as the land itself. As a part of the nearly extinct race called the 'Darkin', this demon appears as a gift from the Gods, but appearance can often be missleading. He gives the losing warriors victory, but he takes away their honor. He inspires them into killing anything in their path, be it a man, woman or child. He brings with him destiny worse than death itself.

#9 Pantheon http://i.ytimg.com/vi/bANFlGJhC7I/maxresdefault.jpg "It is a privilage to die at my feet."

Pantheon is more than just a mere mortal. He is an entity who controls the bodies of those who are worthy. He is an Aspect of War who blesses mortals with his might. Though his mortal body has limits, his spirit can never truly die. However, even with those limits, Pantheon is a one man army.

#8 Lissandra http://ddragon.leagueoflegends.com/cdn/img/champion/splash/Lissandra_0.jpg "I will bury the world in ice."

Blessed by the Watchers themselves, Lissandra is a force to be reckoned with. Though her ice powers are nearly unmatched, she decides to manipulate her enemies into destroying themselves, leaving nothing to stand against her Frozen Crusade.

#7 Renekton http://static.lolskill.net/img/skins/1215/renekton_0.jpg "As I live, all will die!"

Renekton is an Ascended, which already puts this monster way above many competitors. His brute strength cannot be matched by any mortals. However, he was driven insane which puts him in a worse spot than any other Ascended. Fortunately for him, that doesn't matter in a fight against mortals or even some immortals as one slice of his weapon can end any fight.

#6 Azir https://i.ytimg.com/vi/3hHY2xHpYY0/maxresdefault.jpg "Shurima, your Emperor has returned!"

Azir never wanted to Ascend, though he was tricked into doing so by his advisor Xerath. His power is undeniable though, as he managed to rebuild his fallen empire in a matter of seconds by only using sand. This former Emperor has his whole nation standing by his side, deffending him from whatever threat there may be.

#5 Xerath http://pre02.deviantart.net/2b8d/th/pre/i/2014/041/e/d/xerath_by_michalivan-d75w3iw.jpg "I will be free!"

The Ascended with the most potential of all, this abomination got his powers by tricking his former Emperor. Not much can be told about this monster. His body is chained, which keeps him from unleashing his full potential, but, if he was able to do so, he would easily overpower most of his foes. However, even with those chains, he can still overpower all who stand in his way.

#4 Nasus http://www.mobafire.com/images/champion/skins/landscape/nasus-classic.jpg "The cycle of life and death continues: we will live, they will die."

Fueled by the power of Kindred itself, Nasus gets stronger by every kill. He is believed to be as old as Shurima, as old as Runeterra, and, since then, he only kept getting stronger and stronger. One hit from his 'axe' can take away one's life in a matter of moments. Tasked with guarding Shurima, he seeks revenge against Xerath and his crazed brother Renekton.

#3 Kindred https://am-a.akamaihd.net/image?f=http://news.cdn.leagueoflegends.com/public/images/pages/2015/kin/img/Kindred_Wallpaper.jpg "Never one- without the other."

Not much is known about this creature, except for the fact that it is death itself. There are many stories about this creature, but it is no story that this creature is one of the most powerful beings known to men. Unfortunately for her, she is bound to Runeterra and there are few beings that defy her powers, which are named the undead.

#2 Aurelion Sol https://cdn0.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/OSWDk52rikKl7ms_tqffrsqoJXg=/249x33:1919x972/1280x720/cdn0.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/49026431/aurelion-sol-wallpaper.0.0.jpg "Naturally."

This celestial dragon is one of the most powerful beings to ever exist. He forges stars, he is considered to be the center of the universe, he is definitely far beyond any previously mentioned level of power. Unfortunately for the star dragon, he is enslaved. The Targonians control him, and, until he breaks free, he will not be able to stand against one more celestial that hasn't been mentioned yet...

The most powerful being in the entire universe at the moment would have to be Bard. He can travel through dimensions, realities, worlds, he can stop time. He guards Runeterra from all threats. The thing that shows his power the most, though, is that, well, he doesn't care about certain events. He didn't find the Watchers, nor the Ascension of Xerath a threat. He knows more than any mortal does, and, is currently in a much better spot than Aurelion Sol. The reason why he is at the top of this list is mostly because Aurelion Sol is enslaved, though even if he wasn't, Bard could most likely defeat Aurelion Sol, judging by Aurelion's ego. And, that is why Bard takes the first place as the most powerful champion in the League of Legends.

I put in a lot of work on this list, so, an upvote would be greatly appriciated. After all, it doesn't cost you anything. I hope you enjoyed the list.

Pantheon doesn't belong on the list

Xerath deserves a much higher rank

Syndra needs a place high up on the list

Veigar needs a place on the top 10 list

Aurelion should be more powerful than Bard imo

Otherwise pretty good

Just my opinions :P

IggletMar 26, 2016

Panth is an Aspect of War, and, even though his mortal shell is weak, he is pretty powerful. Xerath was placed where he should have been, I'm 99% sure of that. I'm starting to doubt that you've even read anything that I wrote. Syndra is fine with being in the honorable mentions. I don't remember that it was ever said she was as powerful as people say she was. It's hard to compare Veigar with other champions, really. Did you even read the Aurelion-Bard part, mate? :/

TrídentMar 26, 20168 votes

I read nearly everything.

Just because I disagree with you doesn't mean I didn't read your post......

In my opinion Syndra deserves more because her magic is nearly limitless, she raised a mountain with little to no effort, and that a Rioter stated she had about as much as power as bound Xerath.

Xerath should be high up because he is a pure being of Arcane energy, and by far the most powerful Ascendant. Even bound, he can defeat many opponents.

Aurelion may be bound through trickery, but that doesn't make him any less powerful. We haven't seen bard exhibit much of his powers but we've seen Aurelion do so much.

Veigar depends on how you view him, but to me he is a powerful corrupter of cosmic energy that can summon black holes and even the energy that got the Runeterra Universe started in the first place.

Again, just because I disagree doesn't mean I didn't read your post....

Can you please tell me how you would reorder the list? I want to make another one, but this time I don't want to force my opinion.

TrídentMar 26, 20164 votes

Sorry for the late response:

From the top of my head: My personal opinion list:

1) AurelionSol 2) Veigar (Large amount of assumptions included) (If only assuming with his abilities, would be down at 4, )(with no assumptions at all he wouldn't even be on this list) 3) Bard 4) Xerath / Syndra 5) Syndra (close to bound xerath) 6) Kindred 7) Azir 8) Nasus 9) TahmKench (dunno much bout him so just slapping him in a random spot 10) Aatrox

Numero Uno: Teemo cuz satan

Hon Mentions: Chogath Mordekaiser Velkoz

well here is where you and all of lol players are wrong. they say Aurelion is strongest when bard can destroy Aurelion easy. lets put the game abilities away and look at the lore.aurelion is like a god who created the world yet he was played by Zoe and he was enslaved by Azir and now he is nothing but a little dragon. while bard never can be enslaved his powers comes from beyond of Aurelion can imagine.bard was created to take care of the world. he is the wandering caretaker. he protects the world from threats which Aurelion never can do.Aurelion creates and destroys.bard is beyond on creating or destroying them he can be existed and not be existed.

It's hard to compare Veigar with other champions, really.

About Veigar, he has recived many "lore buffs" lately with the Lores of Poppy, Targon and Illaoi.

His lore states 3 things that are important to understand his current power: The fact that he is a Yordle, the fact that he is "a corrupter of cosmic energy" and the fact that _"he sought tutelage from dark wizards across the land." _

In the lore of Poppy and the Q&A of Jhinn, we learned that the Yordles can live longer than humans and they might be even inmortals since Poppy is older than Demacia itself and she still being young for yordle standarts. Illaoi even calls them "Spirits"... which might be that they are inmortal spirits with a physical body.

As you mentioned in the "review"(?) of Aurelion and Bard, the cosmic energies are the most powerfull magics in the LoL universe.... After all, if you look at your list, the 70% (or 80%) of the champions there use part of that power from the stars (The Ascended use power from the Sun (a star), Phanteon uses the power of a constelation and Aurelion and Bard are a cosmic creatures)

Taking those two points and now look at what i said about Veigar... If we consider that, we can say that Veigar is a creature with super long livespawn (if not inmortal) that has learned and mastered dark magics from all Runeterra over centuries until he learned how to corrupt the energies of the cosmos itself.

Not even demons that hate yordles dare to be enemies of Veigar.

Since he can corrupt the cosmic energies, Veigar is the most dangerous of all the champions because Bard cant do anything about him (since Bard is MADE of Cosmic Enegies) and Aurelion Sol could have problems against Veigar, since Veigar can create Black Holes and the black holes can destroy stars with ease.

Oh... and did i mention that Veigar can swallow souls and even Kindred trembles in his presence? Yeah, he is THAT powerfull.

But that's a lot of assuming, while Aurelion has concrete evidence of his power

But I'm secretly supporting this wholeheartedly cuz Veigar main :P

You're right. I'm considering re-doing the entire list, but this time being less butthurt at constructive feedback, plus switching up a few things. By the way, can I get a source on the 'Kindred trembles in his presence' thing?

veigar can swallow souls or create black holes he is not that powerful also if he can create black holes that can destroy world then wrold is is danger superhreo bard is here how you know he can create black holes? if in real veigar is that strong that is treath for ruinterra so bard will come even in watchers time bard dont came because they were not worhy for his powers so little yordle can be that strong you have no idea what you saying ( sry for my grammar)

Of course that Bard cant do anything against Veigar because, unlike any other champ in the game, he is capable of corrupting the cosmic energies and Bard is literally MADE of cosmic energies, so, even if he tries to stop Veigar, the evil yordle would corrupt Bard itself with his evil powers.

And Bard protect the multiverse, not Runeterra in particular.

Also, the old JoJ mentions that Veigar creates black holes and the Event Horizon is a part of a Blackhole.

By the way: This thread is super old.

Not really, some parts of the JoJ are still canon as long as they dont contradict the new lore and Aurelion do not protect the world and even if he wanted to, he is made of cosmic energies as well... So, Veigar is able to corrupt him.

as well as a corrupter of cosmic energy, he is one of the most powerful sorcerers on Valoran. here you see on valoran not in runeterra if he be that powerful they will write in runeterra not in valoran he is normal yordle boy who learn magic from wizards travels and Bard through realms beyond the imagination of mortal beings. Some of Valoran's greatest scholars have spent their lives trying to understand the mysteries he embodies. so people cant even understand who is bard and what power it have he splits dimensions and this little yordle goest to bard and saying hello and then corrupting him .... -_- i am sure you are veigar main

Actually i dont even play the game and the post was in part of a joke FROM A YEAR AGO.

But the fact still there: Veigar can corrupt the cosmic energies, no one else can.

And as i mentioned early: Yordles are not mortal beings, they are magical timeless spiritual entities.

first of all veigars power cant be out of 3 dimensions then yordle are not mortal beings haha who said that illaoi???? interactions in game and in lore is so difference like kindred and illaoi interaction "foolish spirit" in lore you can only see kindred when you are close to death so illaoi time is not come to die so she cant even see kindred yet but when she saw in game she thougth she was normal spirit and said that like in bard situation yordles live longer than normal humans like 3000 years or more but imortal what it means imortal means a person who cant be killed or died but yodles can die live longer that humans not means you are imortall but hey illaoi said that lets trust him even rioter spoil that relgious of illaoi is not truth and perhaps dont even exist check aurelian taunts to illaoi (sry for my garbage english) Bard is able to cross multiple universes and has possibly existed longer than Aurelion Sol. Sol on the other hand is bound to this Universe. there are so many universe aurelion sol is one who created this one

Actually it was Riot who said that yordles are are magical timeless spiritual entities.

And all the campions can die, even Kindred would die eventually if everyone else does. In fact, Riot specifically stated that Bard can be killed.

Yordles do not "live longer than normal humans", they live, they live because they are timeless: AKA Time is not something that exist for their race, so, you cant use the term "longer" with them because that is a term related with time, and, as Riot say, they are timeless... SO, they are not bound to Time Dimensions.

GreenLoreMar 26, 20165 votes

I'd disagree with several of your points: might be the celestial aspect of war,but in the end his mortal shell doesn't seem that powerful compared to the other top-tier characters(I mean aurelion obliterated one of the previous pantheons with ease) And we don't know that much about the aspects so its hard to judge.

Nasus seems like one of the most overrated champs.I mean seriously,he and Renekton couldn't defeat xerath together, back when xerath had barely any control over his power,so I don't see how Nasus would be stronger than Xerath.

Bard While I have nothing against Bard being on this list,I feel like everyone assumes that Bard is an allpowerful being. The way Bard was described would make him out to be powerful,but not that powerful.He seems to be more the kind of spirit who does small things that have a great effect. For example you say he ignored Xeraths ascension,but what if he actually did something against it?What if he was the one that warned Nasus&Renekton?Or if he gave the 2 the sarcophagus?

Shen Zed and Soraka don't seem so powerful in their lores,so I dunno why they'd be honorable mentions.

Also I'd say Mordekaiser is missing here. He is a powerful necromancer who was close to conquering all of runeterra several times.No matter how often he got killed he always managed to return and now he even managed to subdue the black mist itself. (similar I'd say Chogath should be among the "non-canon"-list)

IggletMar 26, 20163 votes

Pantheon - We really don't know much about them but Targonians managed to enslave Aurelion Sol, and, I kinda feel like Targonians are much more powerful than most think. Nasus - I believe he got stronger by then, I remember it was said that he gets stronger by every kill, which I also wrote. Bard - Rioter confirmed that he didn't give a cluck and he didn't see them as a threat, it was in the Bard Q&A. As for those three, Shen's lore has been changed, go check it out, he literally travels between planes of existance and kicks the crap out of demons. I always saw Zed and Shen as equals, so I put Zed in there too. Soraka also deserves a mention mostly because of her past power, I'm guessing she is still powerful. Remember, being able to heal is powerful too. Also, Shadow Isles champs are hard to balance out with other champs, so I decided to leave them out.

GreenLoreMar 26, 20162 votes

The targonians as a whole managed to enslave Aurelion with an artifact(and even then they had to trick him into wearing it).But just because they were able to create a powerful artifact doesn't mean that every member of them has so much power.

In the case of nasus we don't know how his Q translates into the game and even then it is likely that xerath got stronger over time as well(he was completely inexperienced back when he fought nasus and renekton). And even if the Q of Nasus works like it does ingame,there is no guarantee that he managed to catch up to xerath,considering the massive power gap in the past.

As for Bard: Not giving a cluck doesn't mean that guys like xerath are no threat to him.Bards job is to uphold the balance of the universe,if bard realizes that xerath doesn't harm that or will be stopped anyway,then he won't act agains thim even if Xerath becomes as powerful as him. Also it was said that

Bard's intervention, from his point of view, was not required in the specific way you may be thinking of.

Which means that he might have done something,but not in the "he swoops in and just ends all conflict"--way. http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/Ev3qQR4G-bard-qa-completed?comment=01300000

Shen might be able to teleport to others and fight with spirits,but that doesn't mean he is extremely powerful. He isn't everywhere and just because he can fight certain enemies that others can't doesn't mean he is stronger.

Leaving out the shadow islanders because they are hard to compare to others also seems a bit unfair,considering that by that logic almost everyone is hard to compare to the others.

You're right about the Targonians part. About Xerath and Nasus, I really don't know, I believe it is a part of his lore that he feeds on deaths, or at least it was. Rioters confirmed that he didn't care because he thought Lissandra and Xerath weren't threats to Runeterra. It was in his Q&A. Shen isn't that powerful but he is more powerful than most champions, really. Not all, but most. Also, I really don't know where I would put Shadow Islanders on the list.

The abilities of Nasus were never described in his lore,all we know was that he is a powerful ascended in the new one and that he came from a powerful race from a different world in the old one,thats literally everything they ever said about it.

As for Bard: Then care to link me to the statement where they said it. I just gave you a link that directs you to Jaredan where he says that Bard was present when these things happened and that Bard might have done something about it,just not in the way that we expect.

And while Shen might be slightly above average in terms of power(though I'd doubt even that),he still seems far weaker than the guys on top.

IggletMar 27, 20161 votes

I just put him in as a Honorable Mention, that means he is slightly weaker than the ones on the list (the ones at the bottom) and slightly stronger than the ones that aren't on the list (eg. Jayce)

As for the Bard part, I'll put in another reply if I manage to find it but keep in mind I really dag deep into the Bard Q&A before I made this list and I'm not sure if I have enough time to do that again.

EDIT: by the way, http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/Ev3qQR4G-bard-qa-completed?comment=0152000000010000, Bard puts on his 'costume' just so people can see him. One more thing that suggests Bard is overpowered.

Syndra would likely kill Pantheon before he'd even get close. In fact, she'd likely be able to kill a majority on this list before they either got close or could do anything about it.

Also, switch Sol and Bard, and the top 3 would be accurate. Sorry, but a being that creates stars is beaten by a hobo with a flute?

XilannMar 26, 20164 votes

notice how everyone in this list is either a demon, a god (Ascended), or has been blessed by god-like figures, except Pantheon. In my opinion he belongs nowhere on this list, not even an honorable mention.

Actually, he is a godlike figure that took the body of a mortal.

TrídentMar 26, 20164 votes

But he has a mortal vessel, and can be easily killed.

Imo he doesn't belong at all either

But Pantheon the Aspect cant be killed, if you destroy the body he will take a new one... However, Im not saying that i agree with this list.

SkelenthMar 26, 20162 votes

The Aspect can't be killed by killing the host, but I seriously doubt his immortality

TrídentMar 26, 20164 votes

Yes, but it takes him thousands of years(or just a thousand or several hundred, not remembering correctly from the lore thingy) to find a new body

IggletMar 26, 20162 votes

Eh, I'm pretty disappointed that this got so many downvotes, I expected much more, really. I think I'll stick to EUNE/EUW boards in the future.

TrídentMar 26, 20164 votes

I think you just tried to force your opinions too much :(

there was another one of these threads quite awhile back, and it got a lot of upvotes because the OP would communicate with the posters with an open-mind, even updating his list

IggletMar 26, 20163 votes

You're completely right but the thing is most of this 'hate' is coming from people who say that Pantheon doesn't deserve a place here and Syndra does. They have a point but I really don't think I ruined the entire list with just one 'wrong' entry to the list. Plus, people have been downvoting literally every single one of my posts ("Quick Update: Can someone please send me some picture of Aatrox's splash art? The links that I've put in either don't work or they are too long.") That comment has 2 downvotes.

What do you mean Malphite is "canon"?

IggletMar 26, 20163 votes

He ISN'T canon. That means he isn't a part of the lore at the moment.

6FlagsFunnelCakeSep 16, 20171 votes

Despite all this hate, I do agree with having Bard above Aurelion Sol

Bard is a multiversal entity who's whole focus is to fix things that screw with the fabric of reality. Aurelion Sol is solely (pun not intended) of the Runeterran universe, he even mentions it and tells Bard to "Pick a dimension! You're confusing them!" The thing is though is that Bard is so powerful he doesn't really need or want to show it in the way people like Syndra or Aurelion Sol do, he just wants to do his job and fix the multiverse.

Zyra is now an immortal being that colonize and feeds on humans and can manipulate nature at her will. I think she's way more powerful than Zed or Soraka.

galio deserves a spot because he can beat any magic user and cho gath is the world eater so that may mean he can grow to much bigger than the world making him extremely powerful

DrDiamonddoomAug 25, 20181 votes

top ten ranks of most dangerous champions in league of legends*[slayer-pantheon-thumbs]* (1) aurelion sol and viegar. AurelionSol Veigar viegar can can create black holes and has yordle magic and aurelion sol can create stars. (2) the darkin and ascended and the 3 demigods (volibear ornn Ornn and anivia Anivia ). the ascended are practically gods and the darkin are more or less just evil versions. (3) the yordles and the demons and the shadow order. we all know why demons are dangerous... THEY ARE DEMONS!!! and then theres the yordles they aren't powerful usually but they have so much potential look at vieger and kennen. (kennen has lightning lightning is incredibly hot and fast so i think kenned deserves a good spot) plus they have teemo! teemo is all powerful! in his words "size doesn't mean everything" ok now onto the shadow order (order of shadows whatever) you might be surprised im putting them at soch a lovely spot but they can travel through shadows! most of them are quite weak to everyone else but kayn and zed are very well trained an they can sneak attack absolutely anyone and that is very dangerous. (4) karthus and kindred. Karthus Kindred you might argue kindred is death but they are just spirits... although they are VERY powerful! i think karthus is just as powerful aswell i mean in game he shows this! his ult strikes multiple targets at once so cant he do the same lore wise? and he pretty much dead so have fun killing him! (5) the voidspawn. (yes yes they deserve a much higher place on the list especially cho'gath Chogath and vel'koz Velkoz and maybe malzahar pretend those 2 are at number 3) the void adapts and evolves the void is eternal thats my reason why they are powerful. (6) ryze and zilean. Ryze Zilean zilean is a time traveler ryze has a ton of runes there thats my reason... (also zilean is probably around the number 3 spot ryze around the number 2 spot) (7) galio and malphite. Galio they are giant rock guys. (8) pyke and thresh. Pyke Thresh dont ask why thresh and pyke is undead and awesome. (9) the rest of the shadow isles. they are undead (10) the rest of the nations. they are all very powerful.

How is Xerath below Nasus when it took both Nasus and Renekton to not kill Xerath, but just to seal him into a tomb. And even then Renekton had to be sacrificed.
