An opinion piece explores character designs and world-building to propose five groups of champions suitable for starring in League of Legends single-player spin-offs. Currently, Riot Games has not announced plans for standalone titles featuring these characters; these proposals are neither leaks of new projects nor official lineup announcements.
Yasuo and his half-brother Yone are listed as the first pair of candidates. The two swordsmen experienced a rift, Yone's death and return, yet their reconciliation remains incomplete. The author believes this relationship could support a stylish action game, with gameplay mechanics drawing inspiration from Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice.
Sivir's story could revolve around Shurima. As both a mercenary and an heir to a lost royal bloodline, she can represent the perspective of ordinary people amidst the conflict between Azir and Xerath. Pantheon's human host, Atreus, reignited the power of the War Aspect through sheer willpower, making him suitable as the protagonist of a God of War-style title, battling divine enemies.
Ezreal has a background involving exploring ruins, searching for his missing parents, and using a magical bracer for teleportation. The author envisions presenting his journey through platform-adventure gameplay akin to Tomb Raider or Uncharted, while showcasing different regions of Runeterra.
Nilah seals and harnesses the power of Ashlesh, the Demon of Mirth, while continuously hunting powerful monsters. Concepts surrounding her lean closer to giant boss battles seen in Monster Hunter or Shadow of the Colossus, with the narrative also exploring the mental burden imposed on her by eternal mirth.
