* ManlyMan: Deconstructed; he's got the hallmarks of a a traditional manly man: large, boisterous, insanely strong, and unwaveringly determined. But that intense need for validation and not accepting help is what drove his partner away from him and forced K'Sante to really reflect on whether he's worthy to be a leader.

* DifficultButAwesome: K'Sante is a brawler with loads of innate durability and combat potential to his name, but a lot of it is surprisingly delicate and requires lots of care to wield properly. He's reliant on landing close-ranged skillshots for his high-damage, high-crowd control combos, and his potentially high mobility is also tied to situational utility like [[ImmuneToFlinching immunity to crowd control]] and sharing shields with his allies. ''All Out'' is especially tricky to use right, as not only does it [[ShedArmorGainSpeed deliberately weaken K'Sante in favor of buffing up his speed and power]], it also isolates himself and his foe based on an odd terrain-based teleport mechanic that can also lead to some [[HoistByHisOwnPetard embarrassing self-burials]]... or perhaps the [=1v1=] victory your team needs to win the game.

* TheAtoner: Her arrogance and thirst for glory caused her to make a critical blunder that cost the lives of many Noxian soldiers, nearly including her own father. Her failure completely lost her father's favour, and he even despatched another of his assassins to kill her for her failure ([[AssassinOutclassin he failed,]] although that's how she got her iconic facial scar). Now her only goal is to redeem herself, even though she knows her father will never forgive her no matter how hard she tries. After she hunted down by Talon on her father's orders, she realized that she would never live up to his expectations and decided to mostly move forward with her life by the ''Katarina'' comic.

In season 5 of ''Teamfight Tactics'', Kled uses his Marauder Kled skin as a Tier 1 Hellion Cavalier. His ability, ''Violent Tendencies'', is a passive that grants Kled a large shield based on his maximum health at the start of each round and causes every fourth basic attack to deal double damage. When the shield is broken, Kled briefly becomes untargetable as he dismounts from Skaarl, greatly increasing his attack speed for the rest of combat. He was removed in season 6, returning in season 9 using his base skin as a Tier 2 Noxus Yordle Slayer. His ''Skaaaaaaarl!'' ability is similar to his previous spell. Though he no longer deals bonus damage on fourth basic attacks, his ability has an active effect that has Kled remount and restore his shield, and the attack speed boost from dismounting can stack indefinitely each round.

In season 1 of ''Teamfight Tactics'', Kai'Sa is a Tier 5 Void unit with Assassin and Ranger classes. Her ability, ''Killer Instinct'', causes her to dash to the farthest enemy champion, gaining damage-absorbing shield and attack speed buff. She was removed in season 2. She returns in season 3 using her Bullet Angel Kai'Sa skin as a 2 cost Valkyrie Infiltrator. With her ''Missile Rain'' ability, she fires a number of missiles based on her star level at every enemy within 2 hexes that each deal 50 magic damage. She was removed alongside the other Valkyrie champions in the ''Return to the Stars'' mid-set update, returning in season 6 with her base skin as a Tier 5 Mutant Challenger. Her ability was changed to ''Icathian Monsoon'', which has Kai'Sa dash to the furthest hex from all enemies, then fires a number of missiles based on her star level that each deals magic damage spread evenly across all enemies. Kai'Sa also fires an additional missile for every basic attack she made that round. She was initially removed in season 7, but returns in the ''Uncharted Realms'' mid-set update using her Lagoon Dragon Kai'Sa skin as a Tier 2 Lagoon Dragonmancer. Her ''Tidal Burst'' ability fires 4 magic damage missiles spread amongst her target and two other enemies in her attack range, the number of missiles increasing by 2 with each cast, up to a maximum of 12. In season 8, she uses her Star Guardian Kai'Sa skin and was changed to a Tier 3 Star Guardian Recon. Her ''Starcharged'' ability passively causes her basic attacks to apply stacks of Plasma on her targets. Against targets with two stacks of Plasma, her attacks instead consume the stacks to deal a burst of magic damage. On activation, Kai'Sa gains an attack speed boost for an extended period that can stack multiple times if she casts quickly enough. Her class was changed to Quickdraw due to the removal of the Recon class in the ''Glitched Out!!'' mid-set update.\\

In season 4 of ''Teamfight Tactics'', Kalista is a Tier 3 Cultist Duelist using her Blood Moon skin. Her ''Rend'' ability passively causes her basic attacks to lodge spears into her targets, each spear dealing magic damage based on their maximum health when removed. Kalista automatically removes spears from enemies if doing so would kill them. In season 5, she uses her base skin as a Tier 1 Abomination Legionnaire. Her ability was changed to ''Pierce'', which throws her spear at the furthest enemy, dealing a percentage of her attack damage and bonus physical damage to the first enemy hit. If the spear kills an enemy, it will continue past its victim, dealing the ability's excess damage to the next enemy hit.\\

In season 2 of ''Teamfight Tactics'', Karma uses her Dawnbringer Karma skin and is a Tier 3 Lunar Mystic. At the start of combat she tethers herself to the closes ally. Her ability is ''Inspire'' which grants the ally she's tethered to (or a random one if her chosen ally is already dead) a shield which gives them a large AS boost for as long as it holds. She returns largely the same in season 3, only with the Dark Star buff replacing Lunar. She was removed in season 4. In season 5, she returns to using her Dawnbringer Karma skin as a Tier 4 Dawnbringer Invoker. Her ability was changed to ''Soulflare'', which fires a burst of energy at a random target that deals magic damage to surrounding enemies, reduces Karma's maximum mana down to a minimum, and mana-locks her for a brief period. Every third cast is empowered to fire three bursts of energy at different targets instead. She was removed in season 6, returning in season 7 using her Tranquility Dragon Karma skin as a Tier 1 Jade Dragonmancer. Her new ''Inner Flame'' ability fires a burst of energy at her target that deals magic damage in a small area around the first enemy hit.\\

He returns in season 3 using his Cosmic Reaver Kassadin skin as a 3 cost Celestial Mana-Reaver. With his ''Force Pulse'' ability, he releases a wave of energy in a cone that damages and disarms all enemies it hits. He was removed again in the ''Return to the Stars'' mid-set update, returning in season 6 with his base skin as a Tier 1 Mutant Protector. His new ability, ''Null Sphere'', fires an orb at his target that deals magic damage, increases the mana cost of their next spell cast, and gives Kassadin incoming damage reduction for a few seconds. His class was changed to Scholar in the ''Neon Nights'' mid-set update due to the removal of the Protector class.

Her new ability, ''Shunpo'', teleports Katarina to the lowest health enemy within three hexes then slashes all adjacent enemies for magic damage, restoring mana for each enemy killed by the ability. She was removed along with the Academy origin in the ''Neon Nights'' mid-set update.\\

* LikeFatherUnlikeSon: In the ''Katarina'' webcomic, it's shown that Katarina took many things from her father, but their differences are profound enough to put them at odds. Marcus treats everyone around him, even his own family members, like pawns. He approaches everything with cold stoicism, lambasting Katarina for relishing the thrill of a fight. Katarina's laissez-faire approach to tradition and codes of conduct along with her willingness to show worthy enemies a measure of compassion irks Marcus and Talon, who follows Marcus' training much more closely than Katarina.

* NobleDemon: Katarina is a killer through-and-through, having been trained by her father to become a deadly weapon for Noxus. But the ''Katarina'' webcomic makes it clear that she believes she's fighting for a better world under Noxian rule, is compassionate to her loved ones, and has a certain amount of honor to allow those she's assigned to kill a HonorableWarriorsDeath for their service to Noxus.

* VillainProtagonist: Katarina is the "hero" of the webcomic bearing her name. The story makes no bones about her work as an assassin, but the comic also showcases her Noxian pride, ability to show compassion to her loved ones, and her self-doubts and struggles to bear the weight of the du Couteau name.

She was never Ax Crazy to begin with, not even in old lores. She's more of a Blood Knight, she's into fighting but not completely unpredictable nor insane.


* AxCrazy: She's a professional killer that seems to savor the carnage a bit too much. Though this characterization has lot a lot of its relevance over time.
