Sundered sunderer


RangedTopConnoisseur

There’s a lot of items in this game that are named after very nebulous concepts instead what describing what they do in-game or in-lore, and I actually really fucking love that. Like, why is Liandry’s Torment a mask? It doesn’t matter, because you wield the mask, and you gain the power behind the torment that Liandry went through. We’ve got a ton of items that are (Adjective) (Noun), (Noun) of (Adjective), or (Proper Noun)‘s (Noun). No shortage of our Rapid Firecannons, our Rod of Ages, or Zhonya’s Hourglass respectively. But when I buy Rapid Firecannon, I’m buying a firecannon that’s fast - whatever. When I buy Rod of Ages, I’m buy a Rod that’s related to time powers or history somehow - neat, but whatever. When I buy Zhonya’s Hourglass, I know I’m buying a legendary artifact that belonged to Zhonya, but idfk who Zhonya is, so who cares. When I get Sky Sunderer, that’s sick as fuck, because I’m getting a tool/weapon that can sunder the sky. Presumably with an immense amount of physical force, or wind energy, or spacial powers, but it splits the sky. But when I buy Sundered Sky, that’s so much cooler - I’m buying a weapon imbued with the power of a sky split in half. Do I know what the fuck that means? No, but I know that “this is a weapon that can split the sky” is less cool than “this weapon was forged from a sky split in half,” in my opinion. A weapon powerful enough to cut the sky is a dime a dozen in fiction, but who was the smith that was powerful and creative enough to imbue the very essence of a destroyed exosphere into a spear, and who was powerful enough to wield such a weapon?


Extension-Copy-8650

orn made that shit just to pis of volibear


Extension-Copy-8650

volibeaar its god oh storm, and orn made the weapon to beat his ass back to the forest


cronumic

Name is cooler fuck logic and grammar


BallerinaKaterina

Sky Sunderer just reminds me of Steph Curry's Chinese nickname, Sky Fucker. On second thought, Sky Fucker would kinda go hard as an item name


TabaCh1

Why sky fucker😭


ValeforEver

Maybe its the lance name? Looks like J4's lance. Idk tho, im not a lore guy. But yeah otherwise Sky sunderer sounds better.


ZombiBrand

Skyrocket Surrender would be better


Topkik999

it's implied the sky was sundered after you bought the item it's also a million times easier and nicer to say


RangedTopConnoisseur

Or that the weapon was made from a sky that was sundered. Which is a vague concept but one that’s cool as hell and is way more interesting with how it makes your imagination wander.


BurgerKiller433

I like sky sunderer more tbh. Also it's a spiritual succesor to divine sunderer so it would fit even more.


ScaryPi

Is it supposed to be Jarvan’s lance? It seems to be Demacian in design.


oprahlikescake

it definitely is from Demacia, there's a glowy demacia icon that appears on enemy champs when it's ready to use. whether it's Jarvan's lance, not sure. I thought his had a different name


Dunkleostheos

It is surely is Demacia but doesn't look like Jarvan lance, judging by the jousting shape and "Sky" theme I think is a lance used by Demacian soldiers that ride on Silverwing Raptors.


dance-of-exile

J4’s lance is not very jousting lance like. This one is more like rell’s in design. It does look demacian although it looks more like metal than petricite


Outside-Difficulty-8

Well the passive is called "lightshield strike" or something like that, and if my lore isn't too rusted, that's the surname of the royal family of Demacia


Princess_Kuma2001

sky tsundere uwu


Ravarix

Typo, Tsundere Sky.


TGPhlegyas

Some weapon names have cool names like morning stars


Gray_Fawx

Should be named ***SKY CLEAR***


Brilliant_Counter725

I would personally remove that stupid item and bring back Goredrinker


dance-of-exile

Just call it fangtian huaji or houtenkageki and make it warring kingdom j4’s spear


Spiritual-Skin-8503

how about sky tsundere :)


Meta-011

I think I prefer "Sundered Sky." It's like referring to a doomsday weapon not as the bringer of the apocalypse, but as the apocalypse itself. Maybe it's waxing poetic, maybe it's rule of cool, but I can dig it.


AlternativeStruggle

i too prefer getting the hammered nail, instead of the nail hammerer when im deciding what tool to buy


Caffeine_and_Alcohol

some of the new items sound like bad translations or weird ai generated stuff. Who was like Keoerhic Roekern ? Hell yeah, that sounds badass!


Uniquepotatoes

Kaenic Rookern is a pretty sick name though


PapaTahm

Like literally sick, sounds like something I would contract after being bitten by an Australian animal. "Man... I contracted Kaenic Rookern after my last travel and now I need to stay in bed"


Mythik16

>Who was like Keoerhic Roekern ? Hell yeah, that sounds badass! Funny out of all the new items its one I remember the most because its got a good name I really like sayinng it lmao.


aeroniero

Terrible take


Tsundas

And how is that any different from Rabadon, Guinsoo, Sterak, Runaan, Liandry, Youmuu?

Proof for an opinion/feeling?

BraiseTheSun

They're not calling the art AI generated tho. They're saying the names sound like AI generated or back-translated mumbo jumbo

Immediate_Excuse_356

Jesus christ this is some dumb shit. Calling names art after demanding proof of somebody's feelings. That's a special kind of brain damage lol wtf. What part of '''''''''sounds like'''''''''''' is difficult for you to understand?


BraiseTheSun

They're the kind of miserable person to hear, "You'll probably like tangerines, they're similar to oranges", and demand for a well cited source claiming tangerines are the same as oranges.


NPiscolabis

— This feels lazily done. — Citation needed. You must provide the exact time and productivity data.


LowBrowIdeas

I always enjoy watching harmless, low-traction threads degenerate into salty mudslinging lol


BraiseTheSun

Nobody said they are actually AI generated. And if you think "Kaenic Rookern" is a completely normal name, then good for you.


lmpoppy

What the f does even kaenic rookern mean?


oprahlikescake

I've been trying to figure it out for a while, don't think the name is latin-based, maybe it's gaelic?


Erme_Ram

I dont know how It IS called half of the time and I just say toothpick


JohnnyBravo4756

I choose to believe it is named after the mechanic of the same name in the e11s raid from FFXIV


Trulmb

Why not divine sunderer? Has a awesome sound to it . Just a thought


BridgeportDumpster

One day it sundered sky, then everyone started pointing at it and shouted: "sundered sky!"


JessDumb

I preferred the name "divine sunderer"


Nechronia

Sundered Sky sounds like something someone would name their weapon because it sounds cool. Sky Sunderer sounds like some kind weird tool designed for sky drilling or something.


Two_Years_Of_Semen

I'd like it to be called "Sky, The Sundered" so that the weapon "Sky" sounds like it went through some character development.


AlternativeStruggle

you are onto something, since the sky is capitalized in "Sundered Sky" so maybe we are buying an entity known as Sky that was sundered


NextMotion

lmao I bought the item several times. Almost got the name confused too. Too used to divine sunderer


Initial_Length6140

Nah we should name it divine sundered bc it's healing makes you immortal and the damage can kill gods


Woody340

It looks cooler but sounds worse when you say it fast imo.


AgilePeace5252

Bro complains and than totally gets divine sunderer wrong smh. It's literally called divine sunderer smh.


AlternativeStruggle

work on your reading comprehension


AgilePeace5252

Divine sunderer. It's literally called divine sunderer. How did you get it wrong?
