And Yasuo is an ESFP because... ? Anyway, only with speculations and opinions without explanations we won't be able to type each champion correctly, I don't think we would be able to type even half of them correctly, but that would take a long time.
I could also see an argument for ENFP for Yasuo, but I lean ESFP based on his quotes being more focused on maximizing present experience. Also, the problems with typing champions is that many of them are poorly fleshed out and end up being quite stereotype but without any specific or unique character traits or cognitive attributes to type them after. It's more about finding a best fit in most cases.
 
Draven is a DRVN.

In all seriousness, he's probably one of the most obvious ones. ESTP and a Type 3 Enneagram.

Jinx is ESFP Enneagram Type 7

Lulu is clearly an XNFP. More likely extroverted. Probably a type 4 Enneagram.

Viktor is INTJ. Most of the "scientist" or "engineer" champions are likely NT's

Most of them have too little information in their backgrounds to really get an accurate guess at their MBTI types. Enneagram types, however seem like they'd be easier to place.

I always wondered how personality types of players affected they way they play the game. Maybe there is a correlation between type and preferred roles or positions. I would also be curios to know what the personality types of the pros are.

raise your dongers.
always thought about this. Me being the Se dom, I tend to play champs that tend to get in there quick and fuck shit up. I don't worry about dying because if I know my team is good, they will follow up and I will have full faith in my team.

Pref champs: Tank Garen, OffTanky Hecarim, AD Sion, AD Lee Sin, Vayne played as assasssin, KhaZix played as bursty Asssassin as a few examples.

In regards to roles played:

Top: strikes me as being individualistic, quiet, on their own sort of "mission" in the game (IxTx)
Mid: strikes me as being more loud, demanding and self-centered, having high standards for themselves (ExFx)
Support: strikes me as being complacent, flexible, bending, and determined to play their role to support the team as best possible (IxFJ)
ADC: strikes me as being demanding, and determined, very picky and selective in their pursuits (ESxx)
Jungle: strikes me as being helpful when satisfied, characterized as being extremely turbulent, riding between moments of extreme introversion and extraversion (xSxP)

That's something that always interested me too. I'll play any role, but I prefer top lane and sometimes support. My favorite champions tend to be those who can win teamfights or splitpush easily and have versatile skill sets, my three current favorites being Rumble, Viktor, and Nami. These characters are also fairly skill-heavy and underplayed, which makes them unpredictable to many players. (which may be related to a type 4 Enneagram. Rumble seems like an ENxP, Viktor, INTJ, and Nami ExFJ)

Sometimes I like going Jungler, especially Shyvana, Aatrox, and Rengar, which can be just as competent in top lane and suit an aggressive playstyle. (Which may be related to a 7 or 8 Enneagram, and all three of these seem like ISTP's)

I'm an INTP, but my cognitive functions are also similar to that of an ENTP or ISTP. My primary enneagram type is 7, followed by 4, but I'm not sure what my third Tritype number would be)

I tend to play opportunistically, vigilantly, and aggressive when the time is right. I get bored as hell being passive and love poking at people under turret (if it's safe or I know I can get a kill) and /taunting while they sit there.
 
Just throwing out random thoughts... not going to go through all the champions


I think Sona is an ISFP
No way she's a TP or FJ... especially with some of her lines, "A symphony of justice!"


I would say Ahri is an ESTP because she's so sexualized


Soraka is an ISFJ... maybe INFJ, but I'm leaning towards ISFJ



lol I like the Gragas -> ENTP association :p



Lux... ESFJ maybe? I dunno




hm. this is harder than expected.
 
My main is Ashe and I'd say she is a textbook INFP. She is overly idealistic, 'I must unite the Frejlord!', all her goals are based around her ideological objective. Play wise, really all her abilities scream INFP and is why I have a very fun time using her as an INFP myself. Her hawkshot allows her to view areas ahead. INFPs are very indecisive and we always need lots of information before we make decisions, which come about very very slowly. Also the crowd control volley hints she is used to facing multiple enemies at once. Strategically, probably not a smart thing to do, but INFPs often end up doing it, usually guided by individualistic values and feelings as opposed to hard logic. Then there is the frozen arrow which is basically a monument to all the strengths of the INFP. If held onto, if you procrastinate enough and wait for the perfect moment to unleash that mother fucker, usually out of pure intuition through the darkness of the jungle to strike an ignoble, fleeing foe as they make their last mistake, a frantic animalistic dash from battle, then you know, then you understand, that Ashe is an INFP. .

I would also say Sona is a textbook ISFP and agree Lux is an ESFJ. She gives off a very 'Let's GET THIS DONE GUYS..We CaN do IT!!' vibe.
 
What about Braum guys?

He's my favorite champ personality-wise. He's so nice and easygoing.

EXFP? ENFJ?
Seems xSFJ frankly, leaning towards ESFJ.

Se dom and I suffered from the bad habit of jumping dead center into team fights and thinking I could do something significant -- ended up dying. I'm learning now to maintain range and attack strategically instead of smashing keys left right and centre. To be fair I'm not even in Bronze V yet, so I've got a long way to go and lots to learn!

Started out liking mid, but then I discovered Vayne and thus began my long and fruitful relationship with her and the role of ADC. KDA is so important to me and I like how playing a carry can be advantageous in that regard. I could do top, but bot lane is my mainstay. I don't mind being the support every once in a while but the effect it has on my kill count is not something that makes me very happy at all.

Anyway, types... Do take these with a grain of salt, of course, but that applies to everything. You know, 'cause salt makes things more flavorful. Err whatever.

Heard reasoning for Vayne being an INFJ and I have to agree.
Ashe xNTP I guess? Leaning towards ENTP because of her amusing Fe.
I think Blitzcrank and Caitlyn are both Te dominants, ESTJ specifically.
Diana Se auxiliary simply because her tertiary Ni is too obvious. Not sure about her dominant function so that makes her ISxP.
Katarina is an xSFP.
Lux is an ENFP.
Morgana is Ni-Se/Fe-Ti in some order, but she isn't an ENFJ.
Speaking of ENFJs, I think Vladimir is one.
Sivir is an ESFP.
Karma seems INFP.
Draven, Jax and Fiora all ESTPs, though I'm not sure of more beyond Se dominance for Draven. I could also accept ESFP for him I suppose but that's soooorta only because I relate to some of his quotes when I get mock cocky, lol.
Varus seems ISFP?
 
I'm inclined to believe Vayne is IxTJ as well as type 8w9. The rest of the league can suck it.

I'm assuming the ISTP typing of her has something to do with applying the same logic attributed to Sherlock holmes and Batman, from which her character is blatantly derived (or at least Batman).
 
Out of curiosity why Te for her?



YES. Yes. The best thing said in this thread.
It has more to do with believing she's Fi over Fe, as I would imagine less violent, vengeful approach for Fe. Te only by extension. Additionally, essentially creating her own form of justice in becoming a hunter and purging the league doesn't sound likely that many would teach her in Demacia.

Also, I kind of wanna justify sharing a type with her.

Also, Vayne is my favorite champ. Back off.

Jk. Hi, Amaterasu. I am hear so much 'bout you!

I understand what you mean but to be fair, she had an extremely strong catalyst that engineered this value system for her -- her parents' torture and subsequent murder. It's no surprise she would want to go down the path of eliminating all forms of the darkness that destroyed her family and shattered her childhood sense of blind faith. She believed in the light and when it was torn from her, she found her home in the shadows. It's a defensive reaction to regain control over her pain.

The way she refers to her mission alludes to a sense of universality and omnipresence of values, like evil and innocence and impurity are predefined and she seeks to set her mission statement on the basis of these values. I'm not sure how else to explain but I think an Fi user would refer to their values less tangibly.

Also, I kind of wanna justify sharing a type with her.
I would love to accept that she's an INTJ, because that would (in Socionics terms) make her gamma and my dual too, which just magnifies her sheer attractiveness hundredfold.

But I'm not sure how much validity that type holds for her.

Also, Vayne is my favorite champ. Back off.
Vayne and I are pretty much married already. Sorry!

Jk. Hi, Amaterasu. I am hear so much 'bout you!
Lofl hi. But of course, I've heard things about you too. Such as how you like Vayne. You should have imagined my holy wrath upon hearing that!

That is true, however, in context, her parents were tortured and killed in front of her.

Then again... Demacian justice being what it is, I wouldnt be surprised to see their values rub off on her and applied in a sweeping universal way as a means of restabilizing to cope with the structure of her life being torn apart with those values doing little in the way of helping her.

Additionally, it probably took some relatively twisted logic to bring her to the "better dress up in bats and silver and kill people in the league of legends" conclusion. I can't imagine that being connected to reality in any meaningful way.

I guess Demacian justice isn't exactly painted relative to our perspectives as being without any form of corruption or misguidance, assuming my knowledge of the lore is correct.

Also, I got to platinum playing vayne and I've bought her on three accounts as well as bought every one of her skins on two of them. I've done things to that champ I'd be embarrassed to do to a real girl.

I might cheat on her with MF sometimes.
 
Additionally, I mostly guessed at her being INTJ, sort of throwing an argument out there to discover what I actually thought she was.
@Asity yeah, keep moving.

Well it's never easy to figure out the inner workings of people who have undergone horrific trauma, because you can be sure that there are several curtains behind which their true, tortured and frightened self is hiding. We don't know if she has found her peace in her profession or if she's still running away from something, for instance. Maybe I should ring wifey up and tell her to come post in the Enneagram forum so she finds herself.

It's Riot logic, basically. I've always found it hilarious how they just ultimately end champion lore saying "they decided to come serve on the Fields of Justice" because where the fuck did that come from lol? It feels like a copout but there's really no way around it.

Oooo wow I admire your devotion. I do hope after all your exploitation you've let her maintain some shred of her beautiful dignity! She is nothing without it.

She really deserves an art rework on a few of her skins. And her Heartseeker skin looks so fucking tacky. Compare it to Ashe's, I mean -- that one is regal and lovely and I hate the injustice that Vayne gets something that just sacrifices all traces of her elegance.

...keep cheating with MF. I don't mind.

Pfft, Vayne is my favourite champ. Miss popular.

Guess I'll marry Nami instead!
Yep, bye honey! No more Vayne for the taking.
