Why Poros have become the "mascotte" of LoL and not the Minions?

I mean, poros are kawaii cute and whatever, but why no one ever mention the minions?

iF you ask me they are the CORE of League of Legends and one of the first things that comes to mind thinking of it. I Know that maybe actually Minions have no "real lore" or background they are just there for gameplay, but damn they'd be PERFECT as "Mascotte" of this game.

Everywhere there is something LoL related is "Poro here, poro there, blitz cathing poros ...:" I mean why no one ever consider these poor little fella getting sloughtered millions times a day.???

They are also kina cute,, so there is no excuses. MINIONS FOR MASCOTTE

Why would you want to have minions as a mascotte, when you kill about 400 of them each game?

That has not stopped other games from having mascots who get killed. Or, for that matter, are evil... or ugly.... Or explode...

That's the exact reason why i would want them as mascotte, not only they win games for you, but you kill them every 2 seconds, and no one cares

I like the little catmouserabbit things in Lulu's splash art. Poros are...okay. Catmouserabbit things are better.

That moment when you realize that catmouserabbit thing is a polymorphed champion attempting to run for their life...

And then you check all the splasharts for Lulu's skins and realize that it is a recurring theme in all of them.

Lulu Turns you into an adorable animal

Enemy Team's be like

Really simple: A lot of games have minions in them, but only LoL has poros. summoner 31 Why would the minions have such big importance if they are so "unoriginal"

Antlermice are much more deserving than poros or minions

DecritSep 16, 20151 votes

Well, when poros came out the minions were just ugly

poros have moustaches. Minions dont.

IcyPepperSep 16, 20151 votes

Agreed.

Replace minions with poros for one patch.

Watch as LCS pros never cs anymore, and any who do get called a monster and permabanned by Phreak.

Can you cuddle a minion and then use it as a pillow?

I suppose you can, but a poro would be nicer.

Why would you do that to a proro anyway, poor thing
