i've played so many games like over 150 games at minimum sure other games such as WoW or devil may cray ( Arthas , illidan , Varian wrynn , Dante of DMC ) Ezio and Altair from assasin's creed franchise ... etc by at the conclusion i find out that league of legends has the best charecter designs i have ever seen in my gaming experience as a fan of drawing charecters , riot games have always blown my mind with the charecter designs ( not kit-wise ) , i can say that 90% of lol charecters are so well done
here is some of the best designed charecters in league of legends :
Oh i forgot the skins as well spirit guard omega squad Dragon trainer
Freljord prime time

Why don't you also tell us what do you think of the charecter designs in lol and what are your favourite ones so far ?

EDIT : i know that Riot games always inspired their designs from other games and stories but still you can't deny the fact that the way they make the champs is so beautiful , and oh how come i have forgot to add to the list ?

My absolute favorite, in terms of design, has to be Sion . The splash art conveys such a strong feeling of pure terror as this unholy giant of a man kills this soldier. Everything about it is unnatural and terrifying.

You forgot the greatest character in the game: Garen http://orig08.deviantart.net/2f64/f/2014/294/4/1/garen_spin_to_win_animated_by_shouhda-d83mxax.gif

Seriously though, Rengar, Lucian and Aatrox are some of the most well designed characters in gaming. http://i.makeagif.com/media/9-04-2015/jh4p8S.gif

My favorite is Shyvana There is something about dragons that just make me all giddy. And that is no different with her. I especially love the idea of her being able to transform back and forth from Human to Dragon (well, more of a wyvern)

Dragon Bae for life! http://ddragon.leagueoflegends.com/cdn/img/champion/splash/Shyvana_0.jpg

From a guy that loves yordles, I think Dragon trainer Tristana is a good legendary skin to be made. Final Boss Veigar ain't that bad, but the only thing I disagree is the Omega Squad Teemo. All yordles deserve a good skin to show their power or to make them happy, the latter does none.

Pantheon is... weird. Is boring, but well damn executed in my opinion. Still i would not pick him to make an example.

But Veigar. Oh damn Veigar. The poor little bastard had no love in terms of lore expansion or events but he is my favourite <3

or, well, no love at all in the lore too. poor dude ;_;

I'm obsessed with Xerath, more than any character that I ever seen.

and I know Forgotten Realms, Ravenloft, Dragonlance, Harry Potter, Star Wars, Middle-Earth, Warcraft, Warhammer 40k etc...

Second one is probably Larloch/Azalin. (I started to play LoL for Karthus because he is a lich, Karthus is my first character that I bought, second one is Xerath. Yes I'm not clever, 10.000 IP and only 2 champions.)

Jinx Orianna Veigar Warwick AurelionSol Jinx, Blitzcrank, Orianna, Veigar, (New Fiddlesticks), Vi, (new Warwick), and Aurelion Sol are my favorite champions in terms of their design.

I prefer Blitzcrank, Orianna, Veigar, Vi, and Aurelion Sol's default skins over any others.

Bard is the best designed champ in league imo. Never has been OP, healthy fun kit, viable and versatile, and incredibly awesome concept art. He looks and sounds so cool!

Urgot (mainly the old league judgement, as it conveys some of their thought process. even though its not really canon anymore.) Khazix Jhin Gangplank Nasus Singed Twitch Have some of my favorite themes.
