11/5/2023 0 Comments Kay legends of runeterra![]() Kayn‘s recall and auto-equip mechanic neutralizes Fish Fight‘s unequip effect. Fish Fight as a cheap one-sided strike spell makes it easier and safer to consistently level-up Kayn. Kayn and the Cultist archetype received several new support cards in The Darkin Saga: Domination. The Shadow Reaper origin makes it easy to build an all-in Kayn deck since it’s effect can consistently draw Kayn in every game. However, Reav3 has shut these theories down in a Reddit comment and confirmed that Kay's striking visual resemblance and shared Zaunite background with Zeri is only a coincidence.Vayne Kayn is a midrange deck that wins by protecting and levelling up Kayn. Fans have theorized that Kay may be a younger version of Zeri due to the resemblance, and therefore Kay would have links to Neon too. ![]() ![]() Kay herself has two spiky pigtails similar to Zeri and Neon and even has bandaids that match Zeri, though they are on the opposite cheek. In the full card artwork, the symbol that appears on Ekko's face - a white hourglass shape - also appears on Kay's top, and Ekko even appears in the background giving her a thumbs up. The Practical Perfectionist card is part of the Zaun set and has affinities with Ekko as the playable move invites a Predict action. Kay's card was introduced alongside Ekko, seen leading the Firelights Netflix's Arcane, appearing in Legends of Runeterra back in June 2021. The visual design of both Valorant's Neon and League of Legends' Zeri seems very similar to Kay, the Practical Perfectionist, from Riot's card game, Legends of Runeterra. So, Zeri and Neon's characters, backstories, and shared voice actress represent a huge step in terms of representation of the Philippines. Moreover, Josie's character has not received any kind of fleshed-out backstory, despite being named after the Philippines' national hero, Dr. This inclusion of the first Filipino characters in either of Riot's major titles should been recognized as a great moment for Filipino representation in video games. Although Tekken 7's kickboxing Josie Rizal may spring to mind when thinking of previously established Filipino video game characters, it seems important to note that this character was not voiced by a Filipina actress. Looking outside of the League of Legends and Valorant game universes and lore, Zeri and Neon are similar in how they are both voiced by the same person: young Filipina voice actress, Vanille Velasquez. So, in making Neon a little bit prickly compared to the more bubbly Zeri, the Valorant and League of Legends teams have successfully tied the electricity theme into their personalities and who they are. Visually, Neon has a negative charge bandaid and her personality is markedly blunt, sarcastic, and a little guarded. Meanwhile, Zeri's bandaid is a plus sign for her positive charge and she is a lot warmer and brighter than her Valorant counterpart, though she can still be impatient and stubborn. However, the two were designed with a substantial difference in mind within the theme of electricity: Neon is the negative charge and Zeri is the positive charge.

As for Valorant, this recent dev post from the official Valorantwebsite details how inspiration was taken from Manila, the capital city of the Philippines, which experiences frequent blackouts and general electrical problems. In Runeterra, electricity and technology are important aspects of the sister cities of Piltover and Zaun, recently portrayed in Netflix's hit League of Legends show, Arcane. So, the Valorant Agents Team Lead, John "Riot MEMEMEMEME" Goscicki, and the League Champions Team Lead, Ryan "Reav3" Mireles, schemed together and came to the decision to design an Agent and a Champion with a shared theme of electricity and enhanced movement speed.
