Riot, we need another female Yordle

There are 9 male yordles, but only 3 female yordles. (Poppy, Tristana, Lulu) (Rumble, Teemo, Amumu, Ziggs, Gnar, Corki, Kennen, Heimerdinger, Veigar)

This is just a thought, but how about a subspecies of Yordle that resides in the Freljord? A "Snow Yordle" and she could look a bit like a poro?

Edit: You guys are misunderstanding. Ascended, phoenixes, nine-tailed foxes, guardians, gods, are not unique to League of Legends. They can be found in a number of other games. Yordles, on the other hand, are exclusive to League of Legends. This isn't to make the game PC. I couldn't care less about the game being PC or not. This is more to give more lore to the yordles. What intelligent species do we have in League? Humans, Voidborn monsters (which have a nice amount of lore), spirits/not-living-or-dead-things (again, a good amount of lore), and yordles. Each of the races I've mentioned, aside from yordles has a sense of species. Black and White for humans, Xer'sai and other forms of voidborn monsters, spirits of death (kindred), spirits of life (Bard), and spirits inbetween (Mordekaiser, Karthus, etC) but for Yordles, we only have furry males and purple females, and those are just the gender differences.

How about an evil female Yordle?

We do!

Personally, I'd like to see a yordle from Noxus. It would be something quite interesting to see considering the yordles nature and how Noxus is portrayed to be evil and stuff. I desperately want more lore linked to Bandle City.

Amumu isn't a Yordle, they changed that.

Wow, people are taking such a tiny thing so seriously. Asking for a new female champion isn't some attack on masculinity or whatever some of these people are trying to make it out to be. Yordles are a tiny, unique race to LoL. The OP is just asking for an expansion of this race in order to enrich their lore and our knowledge of them. We already have a variety of male yordles, so it would be nice to see more of the same in female yordles. Like, it's more of a, "If we're going to make a new yordle, why not make it a female of a different 'yordle' race since it's never been done before and would expand and enrich our knowledge of the yordle race as a whole?" as opposed to "OMG! WE NEED MORE FEMALES NOW BECAUSE THERE NEEDS TO BE JUST AS MANY FEMALES AS MALES AND WHAAAH WHAAAH WHAAH!" For some reason, a few of you seem to think it's the latter instead of the former. I don't see why you guys are jumping down the OP's throat over a small, innocent suggestion. We have many male yordles of many different appearances and, in the case of Gnar, even a different subspecies. All the female yordles more or less look alike, as if they could be related. It would be nice that, if a new yordle was introduced, it showed some of the variety (if any) that is present in female yordles. It's not for the sake of feminism or inclusion or whatever; it's for the sake of learning more about the yordle race and adding something new to the game. No one is saying there shouldn't be male phoenixes or any of the other things some of you listed; there's no reason to act as if a request for a female yordle is a demand that new male champions shouldn't be made. So, just chill out about it.

Personally, yordles are my favorite race in LoL, and I would love to see more variety in them. This includes different subspecies of yordles and more female yordles, since most existing yordles are male and seemingly of a similar subspecies (except Gnar). Suggesting a female yordle is doing nothing more than asking for a variety that doesn't currently exist in the race. It's not some kind of attack against any other race or gender combination. There's literally no reason to be offended or insulted or defensive over this suggestion.

Every Ascended is male. Does that mean we need female Ascended?

Every Troll is male. Does that mean we need female Trolls?

Every Bear is male. Does that mean we need female Bear?

Every Spider is female. Does that mean we need male Spiders?

Every Phoenix is female. Does that mean we need male Phoenixs?

Every Minotaur is male. Does that mean we need female Minotaurs?

Every Mummy is male. Does that mean we need female Mummies?

Every Fox is female. Does that mean we need male Foxes?

I do like the thought of a snow yordle looking like a poro. :D

A new female Yordle? I'm definitely in approval of that since we haven't seen a new female Yordle since Lulu and it would be nice to see how they vary in appearance much like the male Yordles.

However, I do want to see the other Yordles in the game already to be updated. Corki still needs a Heimer-make over to make him a true Yordle while Kennen , Teemo , Veigar, Rumble still need model updates. Some touch ups on Lulu 's model would be a nice touch too. Riot did a great job on Poppy, and I'd love to see the other Yordles be given a new "splash of paint" upon their appearances.

Agreed, although I want some kind of cool mage before this. I really want a mage soon considering we haven't gotten one since Azir.
