League of Loreheads

This massive statue is basically a dog trapped in a gigantic, winged monster made of magic-sucking rocks. Neat! And weirdly adorable. The Colossus Galio is our first real look into Demacia and all th…

This Tidal Trickster wasn't as tricky as we were expecting. Was kind of hoping for fun pranks and games but wait...why are so many people dying? As always, we came up with our own explanations rangin…

The Grand Duelist is a special fantasy lady who likes SWORDS and not DRESSES because dresses are DISGUSTING, obviously. We really tried to find something redeeming here, but sadly nothing was all tha…

Our first true dive into horror. Riot did a great job getting the perfect writers to spook up Runterra and show us what new Fiddlesticks has to offer. Long gone is that silly scarecrow we'd grown to …

Our favorite Prodigal Explorer boy has a few good stories and also somehow weaseled his way into just about every Alternate Universe that Riot Games has to offer. But you can just do what I did: grab…

"AGONY'S #1 FAN, OUR GIRL STANDING OUTSIDE YA BOY'S HOUSE WITH A BOOM BOX READY TO PARTY" EVELYNN.

Sadly, right after Elise, Evelynn fell short a little, but we had a blast making fun of this demon a…

We finally got a journey in the Shadow Isles with The Spider Queen, Elise (although only a small trip. A Spring Break, if you will).  Sadly, her lore is about what you'd expect for a "temptress" spid…

Our favorite Boy Who Shattered Time, Ekko, has a real bummer of a backstory. Even without being an orphan! Imagine that. We had a lot to say about this one because not only does he have a bunch of (s…

Draven, the Glorious Draven, is more than just Darius's brother. Apparently. Sadly, Riot didn't give us much more than what we already knew, but this was still a fun look into the only Noxian with a …

We were pleasantly surprised to find Riot diving into a genre mashup not usually tampered with: some horror/comedy. The lovable Madman of Zaun is a darling, little purple medical expert (kind of) wit…

Although Diana, Scorn of the Moon has been out in the world for a very long time, her lore is still lacking in ways we found a bit disappointing. Between an interesting relationship with Leona (Riot …

Friends and Loreheads, after two weeks of lore amounting to less than 1k words, we finally have some story to sift through. Our favorite Hand of Noxus Darius looks like a generic, beefy ax boy at fir…

Sadly, like last week, there's not much to say about The Daring Bombardier Corki, but we stretched this out anyway. With some truly riveting content, I'm sure. John complained that I left our entire …

Sadly our beautiful, big terror of the void has the shortest bio we've come across so far. Cho'Gath doesn't have much going for him, aside from Big Smart Void Monster Who Eats Things (I just wrote th…

We used our favorite word again with The Serpent's Embrace, Cassiopeia: Potential. Yet another champion that got left behind with the lore reworks.  Although she has some important sibling ties and l…

While Camille, The Steel Shadow, might be an awesome lady, we're genuinely worried about the state of her feet. Can someone get this lady some cover-ups for her wildly sharp legs? This is important. …

Our favorite Piltover Sheriff remains a mystery as Riot refused to give us the in-depth lore Caitlyn deserves. Who is C? Do we care? What would be on Caitlyn's dating profile? All questions we still …

Our favorite cheery Freljordian dad was a little disappointing lore-wise, which is something we just have to start getting used to, I guess. But Braum, the Heart of the Freljord, is a pure delight, a…

Our favorite firey man Brand The Burning Vengeance doesn't have much going for him, but Kegan is hella cool and interesting.  There's a lot to unpack here, but we have to admit, we feel like we're mi…

Our favorite Great Steam Golem Blitzcrank lives a simple life, letting us finally take a break from the massive wars and cosmos.  They also, however, pop up in more Alternate Universes than I ever th…
