Personality Type and Preferred Champions

  • So I've been rather curious about whether or not there is any relation between the types of champions people prefer to play and their personality types. I want to make this post so that I can gather a bit of data and see what we can come up with. Below are a couple of links to the MBTI (Meyers Briggs Personality Test) that I figured would be convenient to use for the purposes of this 'mini-study'.

    Or if you prefer a different test or maybe just want a second opinion.....

    Once you get your results, please post them here along with which champions you play and your gender. If you would like to look further into your personality type, check out the links below....

    Here is mine.


    Personality Type: INTJ
    Preferred Champions: Irelia & Malzahar
    Gender: Male



    PS: This may help when trying to find heros that you would like to play in the future.

    MBTI doesn't have much validity behind it. It's more for fun than anything else.

    Try the MMPI for real science.


    Also, INTJ.
    Favorite Dota champ: Nerubian Assassin
    Favorite HoN champ: Fayde
    Favorite LoL champ: Evelynn

    Perhaps there is a pattern here...
  • INTJ

    I prefer Ashe, Jax, Heimerdinger, Twisted Fate and Sona

    ENFP
    Extravert(56%) iNtuitive(62%) iNtuitive Feeling(25%) Perceiving(56)%
    M

    Skarner, Amumu, Gangplank

    I am seeing a lot of "I"s as the first letter. I am surprised at how many INTJs and INTPs I've seen since they are supposedly the rarest types.
  • Personality Type: ISTJ
    Preferred Champions: Kayle/Galio/Leona/Taric
    Gender: Male
  • ENTJ
    Riven, Garen, Elise, Lee Sin
    Female
  • INFJ
    Female
    Corki, Vayne, Lulu, Blitz

    I've been told that it's a bit odd that I like ADC role the best seeing how I'm fairly shy/soft-spoken. But supporting is fun too
  • Wooo random tests!

    ENFP!
    Extravert(56%) iNtuitive(38%) Feeling(12%) Perceiving(11)%

    Male
    Caitlyn, Quinn, Vayne, Sivir
    Kha'zix, Shyvana
    LeBlanc

    I think in general I like fast moving champs or champs with movement abilities.

    Hey! That's not fair, I'm an ENFP too.

    THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE!

    We can flip a coin for it. Loser can't be an ENFP. THEY MUST BECOME INTROVERTED.
