Rob Blackblade

Rob Blackblade, the Dashing Rogue is a cancelled League of Legends Champion.

Development

According to Colt 'Ezreal' Hallam, Rob Blackblade was pulled because he didn't fit with the game's artistic theme and the design team didn't get any inspiration from him. No aspect of Rob was deemed worthy of keeping, so he was scrapped and his place in the development cycle was filled by the Champion that eventually became Udyr.^[1]
