Fiora has a french accent, Braum a russian one and Yasuo uses those sick japanese words. In reality other than the english dubbing, are they supposed to be speaking in their languages? I mean, fiora speaks in french with her friends? I talked about dubbing because for example in some other dubbings fiora doesn't have a french accent.
Are there any other champs with different accents?
Champions do not really speak in languages of planet Earth, they speak languages of Runeterra of course. In the case of Yasuo, he uses actual Ionian words in the VO, not "sick japanese words", same goes for Karma.
Anyways, in most of the cases, champs keep their accents in all the languages... but no idea if this apply for the original place where the accent is used (for example, no idea if Fiora has a special accent in France, but in all the other languages, she has a french accent)
I guess that the champs speak in "Runeterrean Language", but with accents that are similar to ones from Earth... So, it doesnt mean that they actually talk French (in the example of Fiora)
PS: And for some reason, Zyra speaks with argentinian accent in LAN/LAS
I’m assuming it’s the same reason why Obi-Wan has an English accent. Why make up your own accents when you can just use others?
Rioters have stated that they care more for what accent fits the character rather than what would make sense in setting.
One of the more hilarious examples is Ekko and Viktor, both come from the same half of a city. So, in theory they should at most be two variations on cockney or whatever other language picked to show the repressed section of the city. Instead one has a Russian accent, the other urban American.
Which amusingly would imply there is some linguistic connection between Viktor and Braum of all people.

Ekko has an "urban american" accent? what?

Yasuo's "Japanese" is fictitious, as in, it's a fake language made to fill "Ancient Ionian".
Karma's "Ancient Ionian" is also the same. Though Karma and Yasuo's 'Ancient Ionian' do not sound the same, given that they are based on stereotypes of different irl languages.
