Champions without victory quotes?

So, I've recently been working on a Thresh/Hecarim deck, and while playtesting it, I realized that neither champion ever said anything when I won the game with them on board. This is the first time I've played either of these guys with any kind of frequency, so I was unsure if this was intended or some kind of bug on my end. I couldn't find any discussion on this matter in the subreddit, but taking a peek at the wiki, I noticed that other champions had a subsection called "Victory" under their quotes - but Thresh and Hecarim did not have these subsections.

Is it really just the case that some champions don't have victory quotes? Seems like an odd choice to me, and especially surprising since every other champion I've played with does have a tendency to talk after a match. What other champions have you guys noticed that are lacking in voicelines?

    Ooh I can answer this. BASICALLY the reason they don't have victory lines is becaaaause I'm a baddie. Back in Set 1, we were essentially figuring out what a script template looked like as we went, and while we eventually settled on the triggers you're all familiar with, I never got round to going back and writing lines for the the champions I'd written (Noxus and SI). I could've sworn we'd repurposed other lines after the fact, but if you're not hearing them, I'll have to dip into the game and see what's what.

    Nowadays we have a pretty locked down template, so these things shouldn't *taps wood* happen anymore.

    Yeah I remember Hecarim used to say "Flee while you can, coward!" which is his interaction with basilisk rider I believe.

    You're RIGHT. I'll look into this. Ty!
