"Yes, that was a banana. No one expects the banana!" is a reference to the community nickname for her conspicuous basic attack projectile. The second part of the joke may also be a reference to the Monty Python sketch The Spanish Inquisition , notable for the catchphrase "Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition" . Her basic attack alone, which is very slow in-game, has reached meme status in live events, with commentators humorously referring to Soraka last-hitting a champion with a basic attack as a 'banana kill'.
