@Dev Team: Champion Lore?(Garen/Darius)

bestjamesbond·7/24/2017, 8:06:07 PM·4 votes·497 views

Hi everybody, I would like to ask when we can expect some specific champion lore. Garen & Darius/Garen & Katerina. ;)

Garen & Darius are two champs that could have some epic lore together. It only makes sense to have those two be rivals, but (as far as I have noticed) they don't have any interactions outside of the in game chats (which are amazing by the way!). The might of Demacia against the Hand of Noxus could provide for a hell of a story.

Can the community expect anything like this in the nearer future?

And on a more personal note, has a Demacia vs Noxus event ever been held in the past? Just imagining an event similar to the Dawnbringer/Nightbringer event but with Noxus and Demacia I get excited.

One more thing, I notice in ranked when you get placed on a league you get a title, ie: Skarner's Knights, Morde's Enforcers. Can someone inform me if there is a Dauntless Vanguard league? Thanks :D

well. garens original rival is katarina.

in the old lore their relationship looked really interesting. standing on different sides, but sometimes working together (the entire story around the crystal scar and swains rise to power where garen and kat were part of the group investigating the conspirancy around the institute). and then there is that entire romantic tension mixed in with that.

id find more lore focused on those two more interesting than darius vs. garen. sure, the champions are very similar in playstile in the game and in many ways polar opposites in character in their lore. but there is nothing more about them. no personal rivalry or hate.

garen and katarina on the other hand already kindof share the same interest in removing swain from his seat of power. demacia would have probably preferred general du couteau in his place, since at least under his rule they were able to keep an uneasy peace between the two nations. katarina has her own vendetta against swain, considering the black rose is responsible for the dissapearance of her father and most likely his death.

so there is already kindof a shared goal.

i could see darius only coming in as the right hand of swain and as antagonist to both garen and kat in this case. which could make a story revolving around all three of them really interesting.

I love your idea, especially because I've been thinking a Light Knight Garen Vs Dark Knight Darius event would be nasty. It would be a chaos event like you said and would be a case for a couple of nice skins ;)
