Getting rid of the IoW actually allowed champs like the demons, Jhin, and the Void creatures to actually matter. Back in Ye Olde Days they were/would be basically all just locked up SCP style and then let out under control of a Summoner, whereas now they actually have their own agency. And then there's champs like Bard and Kindred who would have to have very contrived reasons for joining in the first place. Making the game non-canon also means there's no plotholes about why, say, Lucian and Thresh would ever work together. There's nothing I could say about relative power levels that 4 Step and N1C haven't already.

So the Ruination happened before even the Rune Wars, damn. That makes Yorick even older than Ryze. Malphite finally has a place! I was sure he'd be a Targon champ.

Now let me clarify, there is a collosal difference between representation and pandering. If Riot right now sees this post and goes and makes this champion just to please whoever we're talking about, that's pandering. Pandering just shouldn't exist, I don't think I need to explain more.

Your champions feel all so unique, at least in lore, and they're so well written too. I love this so much Not to be a grammar nazi, but I'm pretty sure that "raised" in this case is actually "razed", which means to practically flatten to the ground. If she has "razed jungles" and reshaped land or whatever the hell she says, she could be a new geometry/map manipulating champion. Bard has tunnels.. k cool, and Ornn can smash man-made barriers. Champions like Talon easily traverse the terrain. Even though Riot said that a champion to have match-long map manipulating abilities would be too cost intensive (resources, fracturing, particles, sprites, re-texturing, etc) we may have someone who can .. like... blink all the grass out of existence for a few seconds, maybe something like removing all the fog of war, maybe gets special stats in river, but diff stats in bushes, diff stats in lanes, diff buffs in jungle... etc. who knows.

Cetri (NA)
in > Rep Pride Through Patch 9.13
The reason gay pride is a thing is to show pride and solidarity in something that we've been discriminated for being for centuries. To this day people are disowned by family, denied jobs, and judged by their cover for being LGBT+, and that's still on the lighter end of the scale. You can't really say straight people have a comparable experience.

Yeah, I kinda agree as well. The skeleton phylactery was an interesting weakness, and it pains me that he has seemingly no relation to the Isles anymore. That said, I think you're not giving Sahn-Uzal enough credit in the intelligence department. He's a good enough warlord to have established an empire not once, but _twice_, and he was not only able to trick those mages into summoning him, but figure out how the afterlife's magic worked to the point that he can mold it at will and take full control over those he sends there. He even seemingly out-plotted Leblanc, as her betrayal was all part of his plan.

And that's fairly normal. Aurelion Sol and Taliyah were both released that year and are fairly major players in their respective storylines, but they have yet to be followed up on. It's been even longer since we checked in on Gangplank, Graves, and Twisted Fate. Bard doesn't even have a short story yet he's supposed to be one of the most important entities in the LoLverse. Yorick's probably my favorite character, so of course I wanna see more of him. But I've made peace with the fact that there's so much stuff that it takes a while to work back to things. We're about to head back to the Isles with Morde, so I'm hopeful, though.

: Well Yorick hasn't gotten any more lore since his rework short-story which was made DURING his rework and released a couple days after. Yorick's rework was released June 2011. The date is May 27, 2019. That's almost an 8 year gap of lore... meanwhile even characters like Caitlyn, Vi, Camille, Darius, and even Aatrox are getting tons of lore updates despite Vi, Camille, Dari and Aatrox having isolated lore. So don't try and pretend it hasn't been a long time and that Yorick has just been left out of new lore for "over a year". 8 Years is a long time to go without lore for someone who is CRUCIAL TO THE ENTIRETY OF A REGION. The way Riot is treating Yorick would be like not expanding Ryze's storyline past his normal biography and the short story about how the world runes are so powerful that they could destroy the entire world. Imagine Riot not expanding Ryze's storyline. Ryze only gets a single short story about searching for a World Rune and that's it. That is what Yorick's lore looks like right now. The one character who can actually RESTORE THE SHADOW ISLES isn't being given any lore for an audience to SEE that character attempt to restore the shadow isles.

If you never said transphobia wasn't a problem, then why did you say "I'm cool with this, except for trans"? And no, trans people don't kill themselves just because they're trans, that's ridiculous. It absolutely has to do with how society as a whole treats trans people. How many get disowned by family. How many are mistreated or fired by employers with little to no legal recourse. And yes, being called slurs. Reducing prejudice down to "someone calling someone a bad name" is frankly ignorant.
