No Love for Helmet Bro (No hate for Mohawk Bro), Demacian vs. Noxian Soldier Representation
Hi Story Forums,
It's been a while since the Vel'Koz release, when we were introduced to a brand of intrepid soldier that riot reffered to as "Generic Demacian Soldier". Since then there has been a lot of thought by fans about this character, even going so far as to make up backstories and possible champion lore's for the fan dubbed "Helmet Bro"
So far Helmet Bro and his ilk appear to be getting trampled in Malphite's Splash, disintegrated in Vel'koz's Splash, petrified in Cassiopeia's Splash, ruptured in Cho'Gath's Splash, liquified Kog'Maw's Splash, and most recently in Sion's Splash, simply stomped out.
Now, I know what you're thinking, "That's badass, it makes all of those champions seem like really tough enemies!", and you're right. They are however, always being mercilessly killed. These Demacian soldiers are certainly brave, but always seem to bite off more than they can chew. My point?
Where are the Generic Noxian Soldiers? "Equal representation!", cried the masses. Do Noxian soldiers never find themselves at the mercy of some magnificent beast or Demacian warrior(And by mercy I am referring to the lack thereof)? Wouldn't you like to see Riot's grown-up take on Noxian ground troops? Maybe it'll be Tryndamere slicing them down (in the barbarian pacification campaigns) or Shyvana burning them alive! Alistar isn't fond of them either, but there are too many possibilities to list.
So let riot know you want to see their take on Noxian Soldiers. Something badass, like the Raedsel Guard, and by all that is unholy, don't return to a style that gives the internet an excuse to coin the term "Mohawk Bro" http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110729015459/leagueoflegends/images/9/98/JoJ_DemacianVsNoxian.jpg
