It's not that bad, really.

Holy christ the screams

Actually I was wrong, I must of been shown the wrong picture. Here's what actually happened afterwards

You're welcome I wrote all that out because I was also bored

Full-plate armor was only 15 - 22 kg (around 33 - 55 lbs) though. It was also evenly distributed across the entire body, so that the person wearing it still remained agile to the point where they could still jump, run, even do cartwheels uninterrupted. Videos here demonstrate pretty well how plate armor would basically do absolutely nothing to overall mobility.







Full firefighter gear weighs around 32 kg (around 70 lbs). This is including the fireproof clothing (jacket, pants, boots, etc.) and all the other fancy electronic stuff they carry around (thermal cameras, flashlights, oxygen tank, you name it). Since most of this stuff is carried either on their hips or on their back (basically somewhere on the torso), I would argue that modern day firefighters are less mobile than a late-medieval set of full-plate armor.

By comparison, the modern soldier (U.S. Marines, British soldiers, whatever) can expect to carry anywhere between 20 - 70 kg (around 50 - 150 lbs), with the same issue of loss in mobility that I stated above.

Furthermore, that shield's thickness looks perfectly fine. Although it may look to be just a thin plank of curved wood, most shields were around that thickness anyway. In fact, most shields were made out of wood instead of metal, because a metal shield is heavy and was used only ceremonially.
Shields were normally 5 - 10 kg (11 - 22 lbs, a bag of potatoes is around 10 lbs) with the express purpose of parrying rather than suffering a straight on blow. Even if the knight had to for whatever reason fully stop the attacker's strike, then the shield would obviously be easily damaged, but that's why they were made cheaply so as to be easily replaceable. After all, you've heard of swords being passed down the family line, but never shields, have you?

All of this is combined with the fact that a knight in full-plate armor with his shield, lance, and sword has trained his entire life since boyhood to effectively wear and use all these things to the point where it is basically a second layer of skin.

TL;DR: The notion that Medieval Europeans were anywhere near autistic enough to wear something they could barely move around in is an antiquated idea that started with weak ass faggots from the Renaissance that spent their days wiggling their dicks over the Illiad and giving women Atrophic Vaginitis.

As thanks for taking the time to read this wall of text, take one my favorite wallpapers.

Nah its cool bro. See, in league, there are different "skins" for each champion that make them slightly different, you can think of them like...clothes I guess. One day I might want to wear a regular t-shirt, thats the default Tristana skin pic related , another day I might be getting ready for a family gathering so I put on the nicest shirt I have, hence the Rocket Girl Tristana skin, another day I may be feeling like a dragon costume would be pretty dank, thats the Dragon Tamer Tristana
