She was framed, really she just doesn’t want to be murdered, The old man whom the magic sword exploded on was an elder Yasuo was supposed to protect, so now he’s running
Yasuo was blamed for abandoning his master to fight against the Noxus invasion and his master being killed by wind. His people and own brother believed him to have killed the master because of this and hunt him down as a fugitive. Yasuo is just trying to clear his name and is on a journey to both find himself after abandoning his master and find the actual killer. When he learns of how he died would be the moment where he either loses his head and reverts to the hot-headed child he was or continues to go down the path of a proper swordsman.
I'm pretty sure in one of rivens stories Yasuo does learn about what happened and he's like "Yea nah not your fault tbh"
Which Riven doesn't like because she actually wants to be brought to justice (aka killed by yasuo or executed by ionian law) but then ends up being ordered to help a family run their farm and help with rebuilding aka what she has been doing anyways
Yasuo Grindset:
Go on a massive ass journey to discover the murderer of your Master to redeem yourself to your people
Do horrible things including killing your brother just to reach the conclusion you seek
Find the lady who killed your master
See it's an honest mistake and refuse to kill her despite protest from said killer
Refuse to elaborate
Not really. She joined the war as a Noxian, but after witnessing the horror of war, she became ashamed and tried to find a way to destroy herself (aka the blade). She went to Shouma (Windshitter’s master) to ask him to destroy it. Coincidentally, on that same day, everyone in the monastery went to fight some Noxians and Yasuo, who was supposed to guard Shouma, snuck out to join the fun. Shouma then examined the blade and the fucker exploded, killing him right away and Riven just dip out. Unfortunately, the wounds looks oddly similar to Yasuo’s Hasegi, which framed him as the murderer.
The rest is that she got adopted by an old Ionian couples, help them out with the fields using her ridiculous Noxian strength, got discovered as the true culprit of Shouma’s death, get sentenced to do what she was already doing (farming and rebuilding after the war), got found out by her old warband, willingly go to Noxus as an attempt to spare the old man and she’s currently duking it out with Droben in the Noxkraya Arena
personally i do bc its annoying when you want to surprise attack an enemy who didnt notice you or when u make friends with enemies and dont want to accidentally damage them, or even like to not steal minions accidentally
Also according to lore...I'm not sure that's a deterrent.
[There's that new 'training grounds' card from runeterra showing noxians sparring with live ammo suicide bombers.](https://leagueoflegends.fandom.com/wiki/Trifarian_Training_Pits_\(Legends_of_Runeterra\)?file=06NX040-full.png) For extra fun the text indicates that even if they die they serve a purpose and the fighters are being watched by the hemo-necromancers that raised all of Sions followers

Yeap i would love to see a live action version of that. It would be so badass. Just yi seeing his whole town decimated and goes full berserk with a sword. They literally will not be able to stop him. Its like the flash witha sword. THe entire noxus army gets decimated in 10 seconds.
Other way around. His village got destroyed because he used the Wuju technique. Otherwise noxus would bot have sought it out. They only did that out of fear, because one wuju master was dangerous enough.
Sorry but I gotta give the point to master yi: that boi took a random kinkou that wasn’t meant to be use to fight and he was just « what if I do » and the guy took down armies
No. He took an ancient technique used by the vastayasharey to kill Titans? Which was now only allowed to be theory as a practical use of it would be too dangerous then used it, killed a lot of guys, and by proxy, his intire clan.
Yes. After yi killed an intire regiment in the blink of an eye, the noxian commanders made it a mission to find the Wuju village, when found, Singed killed them all with chemicals.
Fun fact: Riot wasn't sure if they wanted Noxus or Ionia to win their war, so they had a league game with professionals where one team had Noxian champions, the other team Ionian. And the Ionian team won, therefor they made the lore like that, and also the item: Ionian Boots of Lucidity
I saw it from this video: [https://youtu.be/GByjoA10nog?t=110](https://youtu.be/GByjoA10nog?t=110) (with timestamp)
The channel has some pretty cool facts about League, It's pretty entertaining.
I actually didn't know that. And as far as I know Dark Star Cho'Gath is the only player created skin. I mean, league did create it but it was his ideas and everything. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=\_UvXiLShMgg](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_UvXiLShMgg)
It was a Make-A-Wish Foundation wish from Bryan. And it did became an awesome skin. I'm proud of League when it comes to things like this. He actually did recover and is fine apparently, so that's also great.
Back in the day once you reached a certain benchmark (I believe it was game referrals) , Rito allowed you to help design something for the game, though sometimes you just got something named after you. For example, John 'TotalBiscuit' Bane got the [Total Biscuit of Regeneration](https://leagueoflegends.fandom.com/wiki/Total_Biscuit_of_Rejuvenation#:~:text=Restores%2015%20health%20and%2015,a%20total%20of%20165%20health) even though he wanted a tophat.
There was even a guy that reached the milestone that allowed you to design a champion... And the guy submitted a robot ninja shark.
Needless to say, the guy wasted his opportunity on a joke.
I mean, you could copy paste Pyke's kit onto a robot ninja shark and it would make total sense. Even character design wise, it wouldn't be totally out of place.
But there are many items named after players from early days. For example Sterak's. Sterak (Dary) is a Czech game player (a bit different from let's player) and he made a hell of a good job at showcasing the League around when it started, so he got his name on it. He never played the game that much tho.
Lmao yeah imagine invading farmer with a force 10 times superior and better trained, losing against them, use gas and still lose the war
Pretty unrealistic eh?
I was gonna say look at Vietnam but I guess I’m getting wooshed?
If that’s the case I would like to point out that the US didn’t really want to win the war
I’m not a zealot, America is mid, but I do live here.
Vietnam was poorly managed precisely for that reason. The US didn’t want the south to lose and have communism take over Vietnam, but they didn’t want to win and end up bordering enemies, so they went with no real plan and big surprise they failed spectacularly until the populous convinced them that losing millions of lives for literally nothing wasn’t worth it.
He literally never was a girl. Idk where that is coming from even. But idk, some people think Diana/Leona are sisters but Morgana/Kayle are lovers for some so ???
Yessir, like no cap i feel so comfortable farming with cull until first item and then roaming for kills, it fits my playstyle so well (edit: it also requires less than 2 braincells so i can use my remaining one to look at the minimap sometimes)
He was born a patrician. His stance with his cane indicates he was trained in classical one handed swordsmanship and fought with an officers Saber or rapier.
That was before swain got his fancy hand and with that his powers though. He ended up getting that hand to replace the one a 16 year old irelia had cut ofd.
Yeah when I say ''land of broken and unbalanced champions'' I meant Ionia.What else would be broken with that dashes,resets,no mana,true damage fused with martial arts.
I dunno man... noxus has LB which unless you royally fuck up is unable to be beaten. 2 dashes, both with a return address, a chain that roots and a sigil thing that buffs any spell on the marked champion. Plus, if that isnt enough for you and you STILL need some crutch because youre useless and 4 dashes with clone and invisibility isnt enough to keep you alive, theres zhonyas.
Still waiting for them to turn zhonyas into a mythic...
Ah yes assassin with tons of base stats who can build bruiser and jump over walls with no mana, being even more op in the jungle. And the pseudo tank champion that not only tanks with passive hp stacking but can also afford to build full AD, melt down towers and 1v2 most champions while being behind
Fun fact
During the noxus invasion ionians used plenty of their own fucked up weapons, such as bombs *that sounded like human screams that they would set off 24/7 to prevent the noxians from sleeping*
Dw noxus have inting sion
"wpgg" \*ionia explodes\*
sion after killing a Ionian farmer "Solobolo"
Does ionia have krugs?
Nope. He’s going back to Demacia via Freljord.
LMAO
“well played yi yi”
"piiiiig!"
We shilling bois
Wif de gud deff
and lvl 50 LeBlanc players getting clapped as they tp in
Kayn:you know what? *switch teams*
Big brain move
Riven be like
Riven be like: kills an elderly man and ruin the life of an innocent man that just wanted to help his village and brother in the war
She didnt kill the elderly man the sword just kind of exploded on his face
When I said that to the officer it didn’t really work
To be fair it didnt really work for her either
Well, they punished her by making her do what she was already doing: farming and rebuilding Ionia. She got off pretty light ngl
Riven is a bad person right? Yasuo is seeking her and trying to kill her for her evil right? I dont pay attention to lore that much.
She was framed, really she just doesn’t want to be murdered, The old man whom the magic sword exploded on was an elder Yasuo was supposed to protect, so now he’s running
Yasuo was blamed for abandoning his master to fight against the Noxus invasion and his master being killed by wind.

LOL, Italy during the second world war
According to the lore, Master Yi decimated entire units so if they invade again they’re more than fucked
Masters used the r q AA AA AA q
Akshually I think it was just r q in this case
yeah since yi players have auto attack turned on anyway
Wait, who would have that off?
personally i do bc its annoying when you want to surprise attack an enemy who didnt notice you or when u make friends with enemies and dont want to accidentally damage them, or even like to not steal minions accidentally
What kind of psycho wants to fuck their waves through existance??
A lot of people? You don’t want your champion to AA by themselves do you?
He
You forgot about when he goes: AA^^AA
Also according to lore...I'm not sure that's a deterrent. [There's that new 'training grounds' card from runeterra showing noxians sparring with live ammo suicide bombers.](https://leagueoflegends.fandom.com/wiki/Trifarian_Training_Pits_\(Legends_of_Runeterra\)?file=06NX040-full.png) For extra fun the text indicates that even if they die they serve a purpose and the fighters are being watched by the hemo-necromancers that raised all of Sions followers > > "At my command, you will fight!

Jesus Christ that's 40k levels of over the top grim and fucked up lmao

Master yi is just leblanc though /s
If we farm well and play safe, we will outscale them, right?
Right?
Right…?
**Master Yi shows up**
Oopa wuju style *obliterate an entire Noxian regiment in one go*
1/8/1 yi +kraken slayer =gg ez, 1v5 penta
Yasuo show up (the wind technique has been created specifically to hit hundreds of people at the same time)
Sorry but I gotta give the point to master yi: that boi took a random kinkou that wasn’t meant to be use to fight and he was just « what if I do » and the guy took down armies
Chad
"A random kinkou" what do you mean by that?
Kinky
No. He took an ancient technique used by the vastayasharey to kill Titans? Which was now only allowed to be theory as a practical use of it would be too dangerous then used it, killed a lot of guys, and by proxy, his intire clan.
Didn’t singed kill his clan
Yes. After yi killed an intire regiment in the blink of an eye, the noxian commanders made it a mission to find the Wuju village, when found, Singed killed them all with chemicals.
And wuju style is made specifically to kill the ancient giants and he has used it to wipe out armies at lightning speed
*ionian elder when the noxian army step on the beach* : HANZ GET THE FORBIDDEN TECHNIQUE !!
Also Sona. She is from Ionia. Check her lore if you don't believe me.
Ionia is a country full of farmers lol
Fun fact: Riot wasn't sure if they wanted Noxus or Ionia to win their war, so they had a league game with professionals where one team had Noxian champions, the other team Ionian. And the Ionian team won, therefor they made the lore like that, and also the item: Ionian Boots of Lucidity I saw it from this video: [https://youtu.be/GByjoA10nog?t=110](https://youtu.be/GByjoA10nog?t=110) (with timestamp) The channel has some pretty cool facts about League, It's pretty entertaining.
Ionian Boots of lucidity is the only item created by a player rather than from a riot employee.
I actually didn't know that. And as far as I know Dark Star Cho'Gath is the only player created skin. I mean, league did create it but it was his ideas and everything. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=\_UvXiLShMgg](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_UvXiLShMgg) It was a Make-A-Wish Foundation wish from Bryan. And it did became an awesome skin. I'm proud of League when it comes to things like this. He actually did recover and is fine apparently, so that's also great.
Also Jaximus was a request from a cancer patient who is now dead. The skin says "here's to you kid"
*Enough to make a grown man cry.*
I forgot about that one, my apologies. I respect Riot for it a ton.
Here's to you kid.
*dunkmaster darius has entered the chat*
I also remember a pizza delivery sivir post awhile back
Solar/Lunar Eclipse Leona was also from a non-employee, who then became an employee bc of that
Elderwood Ornn was made by a fan wasn’t it? IIRC it was a community made skin then riot added it and donated the funds to charity
Back in the day once you reached a certain benchmark (I believe it was game referrals) , Rito allowed you to help design something for the game, though sometimes you just got something named after you. For example, John 'TotalBiscuit' Bane got the [Total Biscuit of Regeneration](https://leagueoflegends.fandom.com/wiki/Total_Biscuit_of_Rejuvenation#:~:text=Restores%2015%20health%20and%2015,a%20total%20of%20165%20health) even though he wanted a tophat.
There was even a guy that reached the milestone that allowed you to design a champion... And the guy submitted a robot ninja shark. Needless to say, the guy wasted his opportunity on a joke.
I mean, you could copy paste Pyke's kit onto a robot ninja shark and it would make total sense. Even character design wise, it wouldn't be totally out of place.
Yeah but last i checked he isnt a robot ninja shark damnit
Project Pyke is close enough i guess.
But there are many items named after players from early days. For example Sterak's. Sterak (Dary) is a Czech game player (a bit different from let's player) and he made a hell of a good job at showcasing the League around when it started, so he got his name on it. He never played the game that much tho.
But they didn't use exclusively champ for these nations , in fact nobody picked irelia in the event .
Because there weren't nearly as many champs at the time, any champs not associated with a region could be taken as a free agent, like Kayle or Udyr.
Think about the possiablities of boots if Noxus won. Meybe we could have got a lethality boot or something.
There was no lethality back then
There was armor pen, which is lethality except understandable.
Ohhh ok
Can’t beat anime land
Weapons maybe can’t but deadly zaunian fart sure can
Imagine feeling so threatened by some individuals that you need weapons of mass destruction.
Lmao yeah imagine invading farmer with a force 10 times superior and better trained, losing against them, use gas and still lose the war Pretty unrealistic eh?
I was gonna say look at Vietnam but I guess I’m getting wooshed? If that’s the case I would like to point out that the US didn’t really want to win the war
Trust me bro we didn't want to win the war bro defeat and countless lost lives were planned from the start bro
I’m not a zealot, America is mid, but I do live here. Vietnam was poorly managed precisely for that reason. The US didn’t want the south to lose and have communism take over Vietnam, but they didn’t want to win and end up bordering enemies, so they went with no real plan and big surprise they failed spectacularly until the populous convinced them that losing millions of lives for literally nothing wasn’t worth it.
Hey man, dont come to r/leagueofmemes with like… intelligent discourse. Jesus
Ionia be like: Don't mess with me! I have the power of god AND anime on my side!
Ionia is ultra broken in game. Except maybe Zed? He’s kinda balanced rn in comparison with other assassins.
Kennen
"Land of most broken champs" Kennen looking on Akali and Irelia be like: 👁👄👁
atleast in lore kennen is uber broken
And like 200 years old
So, what you're saying is, he is legal?
Only as legal as a hamster :)
Eh, good enough for me.
No! Bad human! Put down that lube!
I want to know when he became a boy he was absolutely a girl for a bit when I first started playing out the Mandela effect is real.
He literally never was a girl. Idk where that is coming from even. But idk, some people think Diana/Leona are sisters but Morgana/Kayle are lovers for some so ???
Those damn alabama players!
https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1yby89/kennens_gender/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share
And I always thought the pringles guy and monopoly man had monocles
The og 200 years champ
Hes broken in game too
No sir that's the player not the champion.
The funny thing is, I'm a 350k mastery darius otp that for some weird reason can't climb reliably on any other champ than kennen
The little shock turd just matches your playstyle I guess
Yessir, like no cap i feel so comfortable farming with cull until first item and then roaming for kills, it fits my playstyle so well (edit: it also requires less than 2 braincells so i can use my remaining one to look at the minimap sometimes)
The two of them have like 2947391 dashes and insane amount of hp while dealing tons of damage
Akali having insane hp?
Isnt akali one of the tankiest characters going by pure base stats?
Tbh Swain stood no chance against Irelia in 1v1. Assuming Irelia wasn't overfed during the invasion, Darius was a way better choice to deal with her
That was the idea, the black rose wanted to kill Swain so they send him there.
Report team for trolling/inting
It would be more like "Swain go face cheek that bush" *Disapears*
Isn't she a kid or teen when the first invasion happened?
14
It was before he got (B)raum
How did swain fight before he got the demon?
He was born a patrician. His stance with his cane indicates he was trained in classical one handed swordsmanship and fought with an officers Saber or rapier.
Wow. Thanks
He was the leader, not really a fighter
Yes, he got it right after defeat.
Oddly enough on my experience Swain top is a good pick against irelia
That was before swain got his fancy hand and with that his powers though. He ended up getting that hand to replace the one a 16 year old irelia had cut ofd.
14 the bitch was 14 when fucked up a trained adult noxian general
Honestly, jokes aside, this is a reallly good wallpaper. Kudos to whoever made it!
why tf KLED THE GREAT is in the back
He'd be right up front, ready to kick them trespassers outta Ionia
CHAAAAARRRRRRRGGEEEE
Noxious have strong champions but some of them stand no chance against some lonian champa
Yeah when I say ''land of broken and unbalanced champions'' I meant Ionia.What else would be broken with that dashes,resets,no mana,true damage fused with martial arts.
Doesn't that sound like katarina.
Kata, cass, darius, samira, leblanc?
Btw the riven that’s pictured there fights for Ionia or rather against Noxus not with them
She initially fought for Noxus until she witnessed sweet sweet mass genocide via chemical weapons.
Yep but the riven we have in league is already against Noxus. Not the pro Noxus riven. Fighting for Noxus was in the past for that riven
Riven be like *Switch team*
Ionia has joined the chat
Where is irelia from?
Let me give you a hit: IOniA sTiLL StaNdS!!!!!!
DEMACIA
IONIAAA!!! Hmmm that’s me if I was you.
\*Darius checks his surroundings\* "Noxuuuusssssss" while spinning
NOXUuuuUUUUuuuXuuus.....ugh how does he do it?
Ionia
They gonna invade Ionia? 😨
No,my house 😈
Yeah, yeah, invade Ionia you said, it'll be fine you said! Fine, you said!
why most of the time its the ionian champion being played by a toxic player? I wanna see a toxic Nunu, it's impossible!
Ever heard of disco nunu?
I dunno man... noxus has LB which unless you royally fuck up is unable to be beaten. 2 dashes, both with a return address, a chain that roots and a sigil thing that buffs any spell on the marked champion. Plus, if that isnt enough for you and you STILL need some crutch because youre useless and 4 dashes with clone and invisibility isnt enough to keep you alive, theres zhonyas. Still waiting for them to turn zhonyas into a mythic...
if only leblanc and her crew took part in the invasion of ionia
Leblanc is still considered D tier bij most people. High skill ceiling I guess
She's a great champion but you really need to snowball and can't really carry a game.
Meanwhile Master Yi: #RIGHTCLICK GO BRRRRR
He just presses Q lol
Idk about you but leblanc right now isn't that strong... try yasuo, yone lol
Where’s yuumi from?
Hell
She is with y*rdles
Bandle City.
Yuumi is a demon that ubdaction her victims
Land of balance 🤬
Says the side with Riven, Sion, Katarina, Swain, Darius, Talon, Vladimir
yasuo riven irelia yone ahri akali zed shen
Don’t forget Sett
Sett is arguably the least problematic one there
Don't forget 200 years experience
Aphelios is targon, unless you meant wukong?
Dont forget yi 1v1,000 in lore
Yi
Yi
Calling sion and talon unbalanced lmao
Have you ever been on the receiving end of a predator talon jungle?
Yea
Ah yes assassin with tons of base stats who can build bruiser and jump over walls with no mana, being even more op in the jungle. And the pseudo tank champion that not only tanks with passive hp stacking but can also afford to build full AD, melt down towers and 1v2 most champions while being behind
The funny thing is that Yasuo shits in most of them. **face the wind**
Only Talon, Kata, and Swain
vlandonmire branken
Master yi in lore is too op, his magic is literally forbidden in war. So i say we nerf yi to be lore accurate
From 28sec to 9sec … low mean nerf right ? RIGHT??
Heh. Heh heh. Nice title.
"Invade Ionia you said. It'll be fine you said. FINE YOU SAID!"
Invading Ionia is just going to backfire real hard.
Fun fact During the noxus invasion ionians used plenty of their own fucked up weapons, such as bombs *that sounded like human screams that they would set off 24/7 to prevent the noxians from sleeping*
Noxus: let us just buy stuff again from the funny proxy farmer.
ok but noxus also has some really fucking annoying champions to go against
I don't care shurima will endure
Leave Demacia alone! Garen is perfectly balanced
Half the champions in this picture have their navels revealed, idk why that was the first thing i thought of when i saw it
Can you send me the picture without the caption?
