If Riot tried to copy it, they would change enough of it so that it becomes "original" in a sense, but still retains the elements that make it unique, like the shield and the playstyle (protecting front lines well while dealing decent damage and disabling, but cannot reach the back line).
Now that I think about it, it should just be some weird coincidence. At the time, I felt hurt that a company I hated seemingly stole my idea to use it as their own. Imagine if you made an awesome project for the science fair of which you are very proud, and then some mega giant corporation takes it, tweaks it a little to make it seem as though it is different but yet retains the same qualities, then sells it without any mention of your name. It's a pride thing, yes, but we all have something to be proud of, and this idea is mine. I wouldn't want anyone to grab a hold of it without any permission or credit.
That was the past. When I take another look, I now feel assured that my ideas can work in-game, even if the game was created by a company I despise, and I'm driven furthermore to create more ideas :D.
Well THAT'S the porygon I know :P.
P.S: I take pride in my first ever hero, and I guess I would be annoyed too.
EDIT: Why do you despise riot? I mean, I know they aren't the best, but why?
