Something Really Small, But...

Change some of the Champion's titles please. MonkeyKing shouldn't have the title of "Monkey King" anymore since neither does he have any references to Journey to the West nor is he any sort of royalty lore-wise and Vladimir shouldn't be a "Crimson Reaper" since we already have a Kayn "Shadow Reaper" who brings "Reaper" out much better than Vlad.

I remember that "Wuju Disciple" was thrown around for Wukong during the Vastaya update, but they never really made it official. And Vladimir would be much better as "The Hemomancer", it both ties in better with his kit and also helps shut down the whole "Vladimir is a Vampire" idea.

"Crimson Reaper" is my favourite epithet in the game. I would be saddened to see it changed. However I can think of a few others that could use a change.

Miss Fortune could do with a title-change. She is so much more than just "the Bounty Hunter". Ornn's "The Fire Beneath the Mountain" is such a mouthful. Calling him "the Mountainsmith" is much simpler. Similarly Xin Zhao's "the Seneschal of Demacia" is needlessly complicated without actually describing him very well. Xin may _technically _ be a seneschal in the lore, but it's not really a part of his character. Rek'Sai "the Void Burrower" is a lot less evocative than Rek'Sai "the Terror Beneath" or "the Beast Below". Especially when all the other hundreds of Xer'sai are "void burrowers" too.

That sounds rather lame though. I mean what is next? Lux the light mage? Kennen the electro hamster? Braum the shield guy?

Warwick The Uncaged Wrath of Zaun.

It's so cheesy and odd, since to my knowledge lore wise Warwick is still retaining bits of his humanity (the cage) and in the literal sense he never seemed to be in a cage (strapped to a table/suspended in the air).

List of more accurate titles -The Beast -The Beast of Zaun -The Unnatural Terror -The Blood Hunter (OG)

Honestly I don't think Vlad or Kayn pull off the Reaper title that well (Kayn's not too bad considering he has a scythe that happens to be the Darkin of death). Thresh is much more of a reaper than even Rhaast though, as he actually reaps souls. However Thresh's title is perfectly awesome and shouldn't change.

Reapers kill people, Vlad kills people with blood, most blood is red/crimson. Vlad's title is fine.
