The Oldest League of Legends Champions

1-23

Which Champions have been fighting on Summoner's Rift the longest?

Sabrina Ahn Sabrina Ahn
League of Legends -
Amumu Sad Mummy Boy

1. Amumu

Amumu has been wandering the Shuriman desert for a whopping 11 years already. | © Riot Games

Anivia 0

2. Anivia

The Cryophoenix has been part of League of Legends for a long time and thanks to a mini rework, can once again be played on Summoner's Rift. | © Riot Games

Blitzcrank 0

3. Blitzcrank

The MadLife special has been part of League of Legends since 2009. So the game was always meant to tilt you! | © Riot Games

Chogath 0

4. Cho'Gath

Another relic from the past, and I'm not just referring to the skin being used here. Cho'Gath really is a relic on Summoner's Rift. | © Riot Games

Ufo Corki

5. Corki

All aboard this Yordle's plane as you fly over Summoner's Rift! This UFO Corki skin is also one of the rarest in the game. | © Riot Games

Corporate Mundo Rework

6. Dr. Mundo

The madman of Zaun got a rework in LoL Patch 11.12, and boy, was that necessary This champ hasn't been changed since 2009! | © Riot Games

Evelynn 1

7. Evelynn

Sadly, Riot changed her splash art after her update. Other than that, she is as busted as she was before. | © Riot Games

Sultan Gangplank

8. Gangplank

He's also been at the receiving end of a big rework. He even got removed from the game for a while since he died according to his lore. Pretty cool. | © Riot Games

Heimerdinger 0

9. Heimerdinger

Presently, Heimerdinger is one of the most unpopular champions... RIP. Time for a rework maybe? | © Riot Games

Janna 0

10. Janna

Her solid shields have been protecting over-eager ADCs since 2009. Now that's a marketing slogan! | © Riot Games

Karthus lol

11. Karthus

His ultimate is still one of the worst things in the game. Delete it, Riot! I am on the other side of the map and still have to die?! | © Riot Games

Kassadin Splash Update

12. Kassadin

Kassadin is a slow starter in most games, but once he gets a few items and the game reaches 30 minutes, he wakes up and obliterates everyone else. | © Riot Games

Katarina 0

13. Katarina

Those movement speed nerfs a few patches back have really hurt her. Yeah... that's what Riot likes to believe. | © Riot Games

Nasus 0

14. Nasus

Nasus isn't quick enough anymore. He's grown old with time and cannot keep up with the hip new top laners. | © Riot Games

King rammus

15. Rammus

Rammus now jumps into enemies with his ultimate instead of rolling through Summoner's Rift towards his targets. Was it really necessary? | © Riot Games

Lo L Shaco

16. Shaco

The clown who is about to use up our last brain cell. Seriously, this champion is so annoying to play against, I feel my brain rot. | © Riot Games

Singed Poison

17. Singed

Singed runs at you, a cloud of poison behind him as he flips you over. You take tower shots. You die. That's it. That's Singed. | © Riot Games

Taric

18. Taric

We nominate Taric for an update as well! Right now, the only glow-up he's gotten were about his looks, nothing more. | © Riot Games

Tryndamere 0

19. Tryndamere

There is only one strategy with Tryndamere; push the top lane until you get to the Nexus. The enemy? They're not even worth your attention. | © Riot Games

Twitch 0

20. Twitch

Ratatouille? Not with this rat. Unless you enjoy the taste of sewers, then go right ahead. | © Riot Games

White Mage Veigar

21. Veigar

To this day, Veigar eliminates his opponents with his magic shots. Decades from now, people will still be playing the little Yordle and ruining games with his horrendous laugh. | © Riot Games

Zilean 0

22. Zilean

The oldest League of Legends champion by far. The man is time personified! Who could be older? | © Riot Games

Malphite 0

23. Malphite

The boulder, the rock, the stone! Yes, Malphite is also part of the oldest champions! | © Riot Games
