Ivern is one of my favourite new Champions in a loooong while and here is why.

I don't even own him, or tried a single game as him.

But he is just such a uniquely fun Champion to be around. Everything from his idle/walking animations to his comments... I can't help but smile constantly even if he is on the enemy team and kicking my arse. When he stops moving and does the Michael Jackson lean-in, as if closely examining something - gets me every single time.

He's kinda like my absolute favourite, Braum, in that he's not a grimdark edgelord like 99% of Champions in the game.

The designer(s) behind Ivern are to be commended for creating such a fun Champion, for sure.

I agree completely. He's just so carefree and he's just there to have fun. Even in death he's having fun ("TIMBER!!!").

{quoted} he's not a grimdark edgelord like 99% of Champions in the game.

The biggest offender by far is Bard, closely followed by Rammus.

It's kind of creepy when he Qs you, dashes is, and then he INSTANTLY does the lean in thing. He just roots you to the ground and then gets all up in yo' face like https://hypixel.net/proxy/BcmjTIO1D8dJyHNP2FGbP%2FM22%2BCDHyedZb99n9mb/image.png Creepy in a good way tho. A creepy, hilarious way.

They are the eccentric and good-natured uncles of League.

Everyone loves 'em. [slayer-jinx-wink]

I find him more annoying.

"Sometimes I need to treat myself!" "I have two thumbs and a shield!"

I literally hear these quotes in my nightmares because of how much he says them. Also, you don't get a sense of defeating an ancient being when you kill him, you just get this corny, annoying shout of something akin to "oh, haha I died!"

After his upcoming rework in the end of this year he'll become a dark corrupted tree from the void, on a mission to rotten all wood in Runeterra with his army of termites.

he's really obnoxious to play against tbf

pop his shield? it still bursts you. dodge daisy? knockup still gets you. get snared? prepare to have the whole enemy team jump you when they normally wouldn't get to you in time

i really hate some of his mechanics.

Ivern : Live every day as if it were your first.

I love this quote, a opposed to the usual line people say it's not about "rush rush rush, take things super serious" it's about looking at the world in wonder and awe and living your life happily.

I guess that when Freljordians are nice, they are super nice, wonder what would happen if Sejuani would be like if she got over her edginess.

"Ta ta, three times a week." I don't know what that means, I'm pretty sure that's not what he says, but fuck I can't tell what's going on with this champ.
