League of Legends' Taric is highly speculated to be left handed, so that's that!
You do know that the most creative people throughout history have been left handed right? Science and critical thinking dominate the right side of the brain, while the left side of the brain is more for the artistic and innovative part of the mind. I am left handed, I play and write my own music, my brother is right handed but he can play better then I when it comes to playing someone else's work, but he can't write a song at all or improvise because he doesn't have the creative thought process, despite the fact that he is really smart.
on topic: I'm left handed and I've never noticed this in video games.
Actually the control paths are crossed. The left side of the brain controls the right hand, and vice-versa. It's the left side that's math and logic oriented. Unfortunately for the occidentally challenged, the kinds of people who make and program video games are nerds, not artists and philosophers. The artists who do work on the games are less likely to have pull within the company because their positions don't come with a lot of power over the direction of development.
OMG 13:37 - Then Jesus said to His disciples, "Cleave unto me, and I shall grant to thee the blessing of eternal salvation."
And His disciples said unto Him, "Can we get Kings instead?"
WASD is the awkward thing shoved in to make Right mouse+KB more comfortable for righties, actually. That's pretty much the main reason why things like the Nostromo even exist, because WASD movement sucks. Left mouse + numpad is a much more sensible configuration.

We don't have enough right-hearted protagonists. It's discrimination against right-hearted people, I tell you!
I have never noticed because I don't care what hand the character is using
Left handed and could not care less about which hand my character chooses to fight with, don't care on which site of the paper doll the mh is either - sorry, but that's ridiculous - all that's needed for comfy game play is a proper mouse - in fact, I'd say left handed people are at an advantage with keyboards due to easy access to numpad - does that mean right handed people should start demanding numpad be moved on all keyboards to the other side?
Don't know what's with vocal minorities nowadays. You're different, yay for you, yay for me - the sense of entitlement all over the place is appalling.
Come on guys. You are playing a game, the char inside the game, is not YOU. Why does everyone have the need to have everything made to suit their special little needs?
You know, if the game companies could spend more time, on making the games better, instead of making sure they take care of everyones needs, we would have a SHITLOADS of awsome games instead.
I mean wth!
Soon they will have to make sure you have a colourblind mode
lefthanded, right handed. a game with interesting chars for both female and male.
Asian, Black, White, Indian.
Thin, fat, muscular, Normal.
Young, Adult, Old.
Straight, Gay.
Hardcore, Noob, and atleast 5 more stages inbetween.
English, German, France, Chinese, Russian languages at a minimum.
Heck, soon they will even have to come serve you dinner while you play!

That doesn't necesserialy have something to do with beeing left handed or right handed. That mostly just means that he is more of a school smart person, wich means that he is good with numbers, math etc, while you are better at art and creativity. Beeing right and left handed has nothing to do with that.
I am right handed, and im good with numbers, languages and stuff like that. Yet my two brothers are increadibly artistic and creative, yet only one of them are left handed.
And my dad is left handed while sucking at creativity, yet amazing with numbers.
i agree, at some point line must be drawn and resource should not be wasted on some political correct game but be more wisely spent in making game better overall. I have no problem is the character is white, black, female or even gay, as long as the game is fun.
i nerver have a problem sith CJ being black, lara croft being a woman, or link being left handed
However, i thing the language barrier is real, and effort to translate game are, i believe, justified. would Ubisoft games be as successful for example of they only release french version or nintendo only japanese version, etc...
