Malicious Metal5 votesMordekaiser's a mix between Sauron and the Overlord. Hue!
Norr1N1 votesWas the Overlord based off of Sauron too though? xp
Havenscythe5 votesCassiopeia is based off Medusa pretty obvious Nasus based off of Anubis Talon based off of Ezio (Assasin's Creed) Wukong based off of... Well Sun Wukong? The Chinese monkey God Shen based off of Sub Zero/Scorpion Pantheon based off of Spartans Azir based off of either Ra or Horus
Ralanr1 votesBased of the Spartans of the movie 300.
The Sword Saint3 votesMarth as shown in SSB inspired parts of Rivens kit.
GreenLore2 votesOverall I think that Sai from Princess mononoke has a great resemblance to the lamb from kindred. Bard was probably more inspired by the overall style of studio-ghibli,not princess mononoke in particular.
Yusuke Kitagawa2 votesYou just compared 
with Princess Mononoke.... I feel hurt.... Even Ashitaka would be upset.

and are a somewhat more modern take on a very old story.
was based (visually, at least) off of Clare from Claymore.
is the quintessential Ronin.
was likely inspired by Drow Archer from the original DotA, which in turn was based off of Tyrande from Warcraft 3.
Totally not a Portal reference.
Bears a striking resemblance to Altair from Assassin's Creed.
