(@Riot Games) With regards to Taric and his rework:

Dear people who work at Riot games,

1st of all - you are all lovely and I appreciate everything you do. Now on to my point...

Currently Taric has this thing with his sexuality being ambiguous and (even though it's turned into a bit of a joke), I think it is something nice. This game is played by a lot of people of various ages, and I believe (and I believe that you would agree too), that the most important thing for a child (as there are a lot of adolescent and pre-adolescent people playing this game) to feel accepted and...identify, so to speak, with the champions. With that in mind, I am asking you to please make Taric non-heterosexual. It doesn't have to flamboyant or blatantly obvious, in fact it's better for it to not be (as it would lead to problems with Russian laws for one thing) but maybe...I don't know mention it in passing in his lore. Like something completely normal (which it is). Maybe, if you decide to stick with the whole gem knight shtick (haha rhyming), just mention that he failed to save a boy/guy/whatever and have it later refer to his grief like "the pain of losing the person he loved the most". That way it can be taken as both platonic and romantic love (most people will take it as the latter) but it will avoid legal confrontations and such. I believe it is important for people to feel accepted and I believe this will have a huge impact on their self-image (in a completely positive way).

I humbly beg you to consider my request and would be happy to receive a reply :)
