Hi Reddit!

We’re a team of Rioters that design Champions for League of Legends. To Celebrate League’s 10 year anniversary we thought it would be fun to talk about the Champion design process and create a Champion concept with you all in real-time.

Participants:

Statikk, u/RiotStatikk - Game Design

Riot Earp - u/Riot__Earp, Concept Art

Carnival Knights, u/RiotCarnivalKnights - Narrative

Skiptomyluo, u/skiptomyluo - Narrative

Riot Wilkingham, u/Wilkingham - Narrative Editor

Jellbug, u/Jellbug - Narrative Writer

LeighAmethyst- Voiceover Producer

JohnODyin - Narrative Writer

This is all just for fun and there shouldn’t be any expectation that what we create together ends up in League of Legends. With that being said, RiotAttorney has asked us to include the following disclaimer:

“By submitting ideas you agree that we can use this idea/content for any purpose -- including eventually creating something that we sell -- without any legal obligation to credit or compensate you.”

So now that that’s out of the way -- Let’s start with this prompt (and we’ll add more below):

1) “Our champion wants ________ more than anything in the world.”

"Our champion wants to paint the perfect painting more than anything in the world." - u/Delos-X

"It would be interesting a champion whose skill kit revolves around paint buckets. His passive would be buckets he carry around and use it to change his paint brush color, changing his abilities.

While he is carrying the buckets, his move speed decreases, and he can place the buckets somewhere to walk in normal speed again and have to go back where he placed the buckets to change the brush color." - u/lucasrattz

We like this high level concept of paint and buckets, we're merging these ideas together to start this champion off. Our next prompt is:

2) "Our champion thinks that _____ is evil and _____ is good."

Our champion wants to make a giant cake for everyone!

Make a sweet old granny who likes to bake delicious cakes. And write "Happy birthday League of legend" on it.

So wholesome

Edit: Thanks for the opportunity to share and watch one of my ideas getting off the ground. I love creating characters, items or maps in my free time and I came up with this concept about a year ago, and i'm delighted that you all liked it. And thanks for the gold!

I'm feeling some old school WizBall from this
