We all know how big the lore of the League universe is, and that the lore has a big unused potential

Most of the players just play the game, and nothing more, so the lore doesnt bother them. Im the kind of player that likes to look behind some facts.

So, I've stumbled upon the Fate series (Fate/Zero;Fate/Stay Night UBW). If you are not familiar with it, not a problem, I'll explain everything

The story of the anime is kind of similar to the Summoner War. In Fate, the Holy Grail choses mages who get the permission to summon a warrior from the past. They can do it by having a relic that is connected to the hero, and through that they summon their heroic spirits into bodies that are maintained by the mage-masters mana. So, there is a Mage that summons a Heroic Spirit as a servant and they clash in the Holy Grail War, while in LoL, there is a summoner that summons a champion and they clash in the Summoner's Rift, suspiciously similar BUT THE THEORY ONLY BEGINS NOW

In Fate/Zero, the mage/master provides the Servant with mana, so the Hero is able to fight and use different special abilities (Noble Phantasms). From this we can assume now that the Mana of the Champion is actually the Summoner's Mana.

BUT THAN WHY IS THAT SOME CHAMPS HAVE NO MANA???

The answer is not that simple, but I'll try to make it understandable. So, in Fate, there were heroes, kings, warriors that died in the past, and their spirits became Heroic Spirits. And now we know that they can be summoned as servants. So a servant is a dead warrior from the past. So, we must assume that the Champions we summon are DEAD WARRIORS from the past. Think about it: Anyone that has mana, is already dead, while manaless champs are stil alive.

To explain it, i have some examples that might confrim this:

- Rivals that are know to hunt each other. Kha'Zix uses mana in the Rift, which means he is dead, and Rengar probably killed him in one of their encounters

- Brothers, that are also rivals. Again, Nasus uses mana, Renekton doesnt. The only possible explanation is that Renekton beat Nasus, and he became a Summonable Spirit

- Same example. Noxus has probably lost to Demacia in a war, so thats why Garen is manaless (assumably alive), and Darius mana dependent (probably dead)

Other Manaless champs explained:

Darkin, literally immortal. He must die to become a mana dependent summonable champ

Ionians that use Energy. Assumably they are alive. There are examples of Ionians that use mana: . Irelia is likely to be dead (dont know about new role), but as I played her, I heared her talking like a last Ionian. Others with no specific deaths couls also be dead due to being lived long ago.

Morde, as his name says, is the Death Emperor. He was brought back to life by Necromancers, so he isn't Summoned the ordinary way like other champs. Tryndamere is fuckign immortal, just because he is angry. And Zac is a Goo. GOOd lucky killing him (nice pun kms). Gnar is a prehistoric rat that was frozed in ice for millions of years. Thats why he could be alive

Some Mana dependent explained Ancient beings are probably over a million Runeterran-years. That could explain why are they dead

Shurima is known to be in the past. And the Icathian void incident was far in the past. This could explain why Azir and other shuriman/void champ is dead. Xerath has in his lore, that he exploded and deastroyed Shurima.

The Chosen of Targon are basically random people posessed by spirits, like the Spirit of War, Sprt of Sun/Moon, Sprt of Guardian. In Pantheons lore it is said that he is just an Avatar of war, and if he dies, a new person will become the Avatar of war. And judging by his appearance, he is a Spartan warrior, and that must be rally far in the past of Runeterran History. Others like Kindred and Brand are just different embodied spirits. Karthus is literally a dead motherfucker
