I think riot suceeded in making him on par with his homosexual lore, (his waist looks feminine), so great adaptation.

The game needed more diversity , specially of homosexuals. Only missing women now, maybe caitlyn and vi.

Good job riot !

Varus is 2/3rds gay, isn't he? Something tells me being a murderous psychopath isn't really going to roll in the men. He isn't in a relationship. though I guess there is an orgy going on inside his body. heh.

Isn't Caitlyn and Vi a bit too generic? I get the relationship but I think its boring. I personally don't like when they make characters like Vi lesbian because it propagates a tired stereotype.

I dont think cait and vi would be generic. Just my opinion.

Could be quite the romance, maybe make cait bi and make another love triangle.

Lux is pretty much hinted at being homosexual when you look at her lore and the "i have a secret" thing

Btw there is no transexual in the game, this is a micro agression towards transexuals, riot should make a transexual character, or rework an existing one into they as done with varus.

To each their own, I personally find it boring and again, just furthers the whole 'butch' stereotype. There is no other girl quite like Vi. It's like if Blizzard made Zarya lesbian, its the same issue I have. Big, strong, tomboy girl - obviously she's a butch, right?

It feels like Riot doesn't know if Luxreal is a thing or not.

how... would you go about transexual in this game? Why does it matter? very few champions even have relationships with one, another. Honestly, it amazed me that Kai and Val even exist(ed) and were showcased so heavily. But as of now, they don't affect the gameplay. And they shouldn't.

It doesnt affect gameplay, nor it should, but it is acceptive of different genders, there are over 50 sexual genders and there should be a character for each.

For the transexual it could go easily as varus, someone in demacia payed to do a sex change, but in a cool way like varus was handled.

Well given lux being gay, it clearly shows that not all are butch style, but butches deserve to have one like them, after all art imitates life.

I mean, sure, but most of those boil down to mentality. Unless the character says outright "I am a demisexual pangendered squirrelkin' if it looks like a human female, people are going to assume its female. There are a lot of genders and being gender inclusive is difficult. Either you have to go way out there and force it, or its so subtle you don't know one way or another.

Lux has never been confirmed to be lesbian. It's grasping at straws to one sentence, which is the problem with what I stated above.

Plus, it snot "all lesbians are butch" but making Vi/Zarya gay would be more "all strong, tomboyish girls are gay"

Lux's secret is that she uses magic, something that is heavily frowned upon in Demacia

I'll take Jeffrey Lionel Dahmer for 200.

What the fuck? You realize the majority of gay men are not the stereotype you find in mainstream media right? Most are "heteronormative" in behavior, and appear no different than their straight counterparts.
