Question about Ashe.

Submitted 3 years, 9 months ago by

Freljord is supposedly so cold that its own people pride themselves on being able to survive in it. So why does Ashe walk around half naked? -_-

    Why do you have an issue with Ashe when Tryndamere and Braum wear even fewer clothes?

    It’s a holdover from LoL’s early days. LoL was initially just a collection of various stereotypes, which is why a lot of the old champions seem kind of boring in design. When Ashe was created she was just meant to be “sexy frost archer”, and her lore was created afterwards to fit her design. She hasn’t had a major redesign since then, so she still looks like the basic “sexy frost archer”.

    A lore justification would be that Ashe is a descendant of the Iceborn, and so doesn’t feel cold.

    Because I forgot about them. I don't see their picture every single time I sign in like I do with Ashe. Thus Ashe is more memorable. Also she is one of my fav champs to use on top of that. So basically Braum and Tryn were an out of sight out of mind thing.

    Beside this, an "actual explanation", who is a 100% conforming, is the thing that Ashe, Braum and Tryndamere are Avarosan, who are the tribe who lives most to the south of the Freljord, who is the less colder zone of the Freljord, but that isn't a full answer and its vague, cuz the Freljord is the Freljord, is a omage a to the nordic lands and his people and... generally here, is very cold

    Fuera de eso, una "explicación actual", que no es 100% confortante, es que tanto Ashe, Braum y Tryndamere son Avarosanos, la tribu que vive mas al sur del Freljord, que es la menos fría del mismo, pero no es una respuesta completa y es muy vaga, ya que el Freljord es el Freljord, son una imagen fantasiosa de las tierras y gentes nórdicas y demás inspiraciones, y ahí generalmente hace mucho frió...

    Sorry for the bad english

    Played Heartstone since beta. Never reached Legend but rank 1 two or three times, Spell Hunter is my soul. LOR Enthusiast. MTG Resentful cuz im bad.
    Hablo español por que soy de Argentina, boludo!

    Update 2021: I dont play Hearthstone anymore, and i dont regret. Playing LOR and lovin' it. Discard Aggro is best deck!

    League of Legends is a moba game that originated from Dota 1.
    In Dota 1 there was a champion named "Drow Ranger" that was inspired on Blizzard's Sylvanas Windrunner:

    Drow Ranger was one of the most popular picks in Dota 1 days.
    Riot made Ashe's kit and design very similar to hers:

    You can add now any explanation you want to fit the lore, but that is the true origin of Ashe's design.
