"When we originally created Taric, we came up with this pretty vague backstory about him being a space alien obsessed with gems. As a result, most players had the impression that he was just a weird dude who's always moaning about gems."- Riot Cactoqueer
Lol no dude. Everyone thought he was gay, and thats why he liked gems. Fuckin little wannabe kids game.
