All Yordles in League of Legends

Sixteen champions. Two feet tall. Yordles occupy a strange slot in LoL's lore. They are cute. They are mean. They are spirit beings who do not age or die like normal mortals. When a yordle's physical form is destroyed, they simply dissolve and respawn safely in Bandle City.

Yordles are the most underestimated race in Runeterra, and League of Legends keeps proving that point every patch. Here are all the yordles in League.

Yordles are a race of spirits, usually taking the form of short, furry, mammalian bipeds. Their home, Bandle City, exists as a self-contained pocket of the spirit realm, with no direct counterpart in the material realm of Runeterra. To reach mortals, yordles built gateways across Runeterra; the spots where those gateways bleed through are called bandlewoods, and they tend to warp local flora and fauna in ways that would unsettle a Zaunite chemist.

Despite standing only knee-high, they've been punching above their weight since prehistoric times, taking on giants, demons, and the occasional void creature. Their culture emphasizes curiosity, craftsmanship, and (per Teemo) passive-aggressive trap placement.

*Riot has never published official heights for most champions, which means height and weight measurements of all the champions are concepts or relative comparisons.

Not officially a yordle anymore, Amumu is a lonely, ancient creature bound in cursed bandages, wandering Runeterra in a hopeless search for a friend, because his very touch condemns anyone who gets close. Older lore openly called him a lost yordle, but the current League wiki no longer files him under the Yordle category.

Corki is a yordle who fell in love with flight and never came back down, a decorated Bandle City aviator who now pilots his own gyrocopter over Valoran. Loud, brash, and endlessly proud of his flying machine.

Fizz is an amphibious yordle who lives among the reefs off Bilgewater, mistaken by superstitious sailors for a capricious sea spirit. He is the oldest known yordle, predating even Gnar, and the only amphibious one, with gills, webbed hands, and no fur. Whether he truly counts as a yordle is a running debate, but Riot currently says yes.

Gnar is a prehistoric yordle who was frozen in True Ice for millennia and thawed out in the modern Freljord, carrying a piece of a lost age with him. Push him far enough and cuddly Mini Gnar gives way to Mega Gnar, a hulking rage-beast, making him the closest thing League has to a full transformation gimmick where both forms feel completely distinct.

Heimerdinger is Piltover's most celebrated and most eccentric inventor, a yordle genius whose turrets, grenades, and rockets helped shape hextech itself. Arcane fans know him as the mentor who first nurtured a young Ekko's tinkering.

Kennen is a Shurima-born yordle ninja and the only yordle in Ionia's Kinkou Order, serving alongside Shen and Akali as its Heart of the Tempest. Small, fast, crackling with storm energy, darting through fights, and leaving enemies stunned.

Kled is a rage-fueled Noxian yordle who refuses to die and, mostly, refuses to dismount. He rides a cowardly lizard-steed named Skaarl; when Skaarl bolts, Kled fights on out of pure spite until he can remount.

Lulu is a yordle mage who wandered into the spirit realm of the fae and came back changed, seeing the world as a whimsical dream and reshaping it to match. Her constant companion is Pix, a faerie only she fully understands. She is playful, unpredictable, and quietly one of the most protective champions alive.

Norra is a whimsical yordle enchantress from Bandle City and the long-lost master of Yuumi, which is exactly why the book-hopping cat has been searching Runeterra all this time. She is Wild Rift's first champion built exclusively for that game.

Poppy is a stout, no-nonsense yordle who carries the legendary Hammer of Orlon, a weapon heavier than she is, while searching for the fabled Hero of Demacia, whom she believes is destined to wield it. Humble to a fault, she would rather quietly do the job herself than admit she might be the hero all along.

Rumble is a scrappy yordle mechanic from Bandle City who built his own battle-mech out of junkyard scraps and raw resentment at being underestimated. Hot-tempered and fiercely inventive, he pilots it straight into fights that a creature his size has no business starting.

Teemo is the beaming, relentlessly cheerful face of yordle-kind and the bane of Bandle City's enemies, a scout who follows his own strict code with unsettling dedication. He has been on the Rift since the 2009 launch and remains the most memed, most hated, and most beloved (by Teemo mains) champion.

Tristana is a yordle who grew up on tales of legendary marksmen and left Bandle City to become one herself, wielding an oversized cannon nearly as big as she is. Bright, brave, and hungry for adventure, she has been a face of the ADC role since the game's earliest days.

Veigar is a yordle who decided that ordinary sorcery was not sinister enough and committed fully to being a diminutive dark lord. Once a subordinate of Mordekaiser, he is the smallest yordle of all, yet wields limitless, ever-growing magic.

Vex is a melancholic goth yordle who rejects everything sunny about her kind. She loathes enthusiasm, loud colors, and cheer, accompanied only by her sentient shadow, which is literally named Shadow. She is the newest yordle champ and the only female yordle released in the decade.

Ziggs is a manic yordle inventor obsessed with one thing: bigger explosions. He fled Piltover's academic circles to blow things up on his own terms, and now every part of his kit is a bomb of some kind. And he is never happier than when a tower is coming down.
