So a little on Camille

I had a discussion with my friend, and he thought Camille's niche had been fulfilled

"No-nonsense criminal beatdowns prefaced by vigilantism is kinda Vi's thing I feel her niche has been filled"

I disagreed, because I personally believe that Camille is something far above Cait and Vi. If Cait and Vi are the police force, Camille is the FBI. She goes in and deals with the threats that people aren't even aware of.

Also a Rioter asked what we thought Camille was, either fully robotic or an augmented human. To answer that Rioters question, I believe she's an augmented human (Maybe a very augmented one), we only have 2 fully robotic machines in League

Blitzcrank and Orianna. Gonna focus on Orianna here since she's more relateable to Camille considering Orianna was actually based off of a real human. That being said, she's not even close to how a natural human behaves, she's "off" in just about everything, and she was also built by one of the best inventors, and she's still "off".

Camille on the other hand feels human, it feels like she has human emotions and that she's not simply a husk of bolts and cogs. Orianna is a clear imitation, Camille feels like the real thing.

All in all, Camille looks pretty interesting, and I'm looking forward to her release and story.

I can understand why people liken her to a vigilante considering her activities, but her augmentations are perhaps the smoothest integration League has ever seen, leading me to believe they cost a very pretty penny, perhaps more than one person can afford. Not to mention her actions and the reasons for them reek of political intrigue. Camille is definitely not acting alone.

Honestly, I am rather excited for her release, more so than I have ever been in a very long time. I really like her design, however impractical it is.

I wouldn't consider her a vigilante at all. She's not out seeking justice. She's about maintaining the stability of the system (Piltover). She's more akin to one of the Agents from the Matrix.

Vi by comparison is much more emotional, brash, and undisciplined.

I don't think there's much overlap at all between them.

I see where people are coming from with her as a vigilante or something akin to an anti hero type character. However, unlike most characters that are have that vigilante status, she seems to not be intruding with any law enforcement agency. Instead, she is just maintaing balance in the city. From the comments she made in the comic, my guess is that she must also ensure that the bad parts of the city (crime, corruption, etc) is balanced with the good parts (law, government, honesty, etc.) She's more of an anti hero, as I previously stated, ensuring that stability and balance is kept on both sides, order and chaos...

Either way, she's pretty cool!

So in one of the story "the weakest heart" we get a small insight into what might be left of her. So when she is fighting a gang of (augmented) dudes she takes a blow and "tastes the blood from her lip" so she still has blood that flows to her face. Now it is kinda odd and I think there are one of two choices considering how old she is (probably 90 or so) , 1 she has been heavily augmented enough so that she doesn't age, or 2 the hex-tech crystal replacing her heart is giving her vitality beyond her years. I kinda lean toward the first but both could be in play.
