Ivern was released as a champion in League of Legends in 2016, created as a peaceful treant who protects the forest instead of harming enemies. His voice lines were written to sound patient and nurturing, which is why lines about care and kindness became favorites outside matches. Players clipped his calmer quotes for soundboards and social edits, where the self love line found a second life as a wholesome reaction separate from gameplay. It remains popular because it offers sincerity in a feed usually driven by jokes.
