Tryndamyre's left arm.

(Sorry if the grammar in the title is bad)

A thought occurred to me about the Barbarian King today, his left arm and its lack of use in combat (I don't play him, so I don't know all of his animations).

Now Trynd is a powerful warrior, but why would he neglect his left arm for combat if it is perfectly capable? What could have caused him to go his entire life using one hand for his sword?

Then it dawned on me: he shouldn't have a left arm. Rather the lose of the limb should have been the mortal wound that he defied. This would make his use of the right arm more prominent because he's trained himself to use what he has.

Obviously this would remove his joke (or have it make little sense). So Riot, I would like to ask you to consider the removal of his left arm if he ever gets a major rework.

Anyone else's thoughts on this? I doubt this would actually happen, but I think it would be cool.

He does use his left arm in combat when he does his Mocking Shout, his Spinning Slash, and performing a critical attack. Story-wise, Tryndamere being right-handed makes him anti-thesis to Aatrox, who is left-handed.
