Hey Riot, How about you reverse these lore changes?

It seems pretty clear that most players don't want them.

Also, decoupling the lore from the game just doesn't make much sense at this point.

Champions need a reason to fight on Summoner's Rift, or they aren't champions of anything....just people fighting...On a battlefield with a name that doesn't make sense because there aren't summoners in Runeterra anymore... wtf is going on?!

In the past many players have complained about the lack of lore that Riot has delivered to it's game, but I don't think the community ever really had an issue issue with the quality of the new content released. (excluding retcons and reworks).

Now, it sounds like you're going to be changing the identity of the majority of champions in the League of Legends. Heck, It sounds like "the League of Legends" isn't even going to exist in the lore reboot you are considering.

The community didn't want a fresh take on old champions, it wanted our champions, and the world they lived in, to be further developed.

You don't develop Runeterra by removing it's most important institutions and the things that make it unique. If you want to create some other random world, name it something else, and make new characters for it.

If you don't like the way Runeterra turned out, rename your new world something else, and change the name of this game from "League of Legends" to something else.

Or Riot, just re-consider your decisions about lore and implement them in a way that makes sense and doesn't destroy the "League of Legends".

???...Why is this "we hate what's happening to the lore" thread down-voted while the others aren't? I don't see anything wrong with it.

Honestly, its the same argument as for Cass and Soraka reworks. Few people play them just like few people actually care about the old lore. If something is not as popular and good as it can be, changes are definetely needed. Now, its impossible to get everyone to like the changes, there will always be someone upset with them, but without changes there can be no improvement and without improvement there can be no truly succesfull franchise or game.
