Make Lore, Not War!

I've read that riot is taking a different approach to lore. I've read that they still hold the old lore dear, and I've also heard that the summoners and fields of justice are no longer relevant. Here is what I feel about that. There should still be the summoners and fields of justice. If summoners are no longer relevant than why am I taking these characters out to war? Why am I playing this game if my role as summoner is no longer canon. That is how I perceived it. Why was Orianna created when the inventors daughter died training for the fields of justice, and many other champions? Can we just figure out a middle ground? I would really like lore to come back, it gives me the same feel as sitting down reading a good passage and stopping to have that cliffhanger effect. I'm not sure, but League could sure leak a few champions in lore! Putting that aside, and assuming they will stop using fields of justice and summoner lore I have a challenge to you all. Build old time lore to the new champions. Give them a reason why they're here. Get creative. Make people wish that the old lore was still present. Instead of just lashing at riot and making them upset; I saw a rioter post that he was befuddled and at loss with the lash out of "dumping old lore threads", How about make some lore. Why be destructive when you can create. Riot has took skin ideas from threads, why not lore ideas? Stop being so out for blood, you're just making a deeper laceration between us Summoners and Riot.

TL;DR: Make lore, not war. Start posting how new champions would fit in the old lore. Riot takes skin ideas, why not lore ideas too?

PS: If anyone has really good lore posted in this thread (Highest upvotes) I will draw a comic to the lore. I need some good practice with my new tablet. My Style:

Ok, I'll give it a try:

Yasuo is searching for the killer of the Ionian elder in order to clear his name and be respected again in the eyes of his fellow swordsmen. He goes to the League of Legends, because he knows the most powerful of the world gather there: perhaps he could find another with his mastery over wind. If not, he can potentially use his influence as champion to continue the search elsewhere, or to regain the respect of his peers another way.
