DH5: 030 - Corki, The Daring Bombardier

Crabthief Fridays and our thirtieth highfive!

Better get some thornmail son! today we're visiting that aggressive aerial attacker Corki

Corki exhibits the pushed geometry of most of the mechanical creations in League of Legends. Most Yordel technology tends to have this warped look to their structure and Corki's bomber is no exception. I do think that the bomber itself suffers from that same generic look with little to no visual breaks over it's body, but the welding and paneling makes up for the stock gray of the body in a few ways. the mustache is awesome. It appears that Crabthief has pilfered a wrench! Watch out crab! looks like Corki isn't afraid to open up on thieving crustaceans!

In game corki is a monster (and pretty broken in ARAM). He's a high damage carry that can escape pretty easily and keep pounding his enemies a range. the minigun at the front cuts down armor adding big utility in team fights and he can pop stealthers with his phosphorus bomb. He's kind of a jack of all trades and if he isn't handled with some strategy, an unstoppable force on the battlefield. Anybody fans of this high-flying fiend? drop us a line in the comments below!

  1. I never could play Corki well, BUT your Corki's flying machine reminds me of Kog's head.

  2. now that you mention it it really does.

    i guess that's just how their designers draw monsters cause i was comparing both and they do look quite similar (Kog and the plane). I can't play Corki very well at all either.

  3. :P Actually he can't expose stealthers anymore, they removed the ability because they felt it was too strong in regards to allowing him to quickly find wards and destroy them.

    But other then that, I love this depiction of him.

  4. WHAT!? man i guess that is a relief, it was a pretty powerful ability with that much utility.
