Tons of damage became a catchphrase through League of Legends champion spotlights narrated by David Phreak Turley in the early 2010s. He used the phrase so often, especially when promoting Trinity Force, that players turned it into a running joke and remix material. Clips were cut into soundboards, forums and YouTube edits, and the shout version exaggerates it further for comic effect. It remains popular because it perfectly sums up League culture and any moment where damage numbers feel absurdly high.
