Downloading quotes from champions specified by input does NOT require a Riot API key.
A champion list [name_id_dict.json] is required for downloading quotes from all champions using the (-a) flag, and for champion ID lookups (-i).
To update or replace the provided champion list [name_id_dict.json], a valid Riot API key is required.
Get yours from developer.riotgames.com.
In the file riot_api_key.json, replace "xxxxx-xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx" with your own Riot API key, inside the quotation marks.
