Please don't mess up Irelia's lore, Riot

Yes, I'm aware it isn't fully out yet but it doesn't hurt to write it down. It's one of the most amazing and unique concepts you have currently - for the unaware, she's a lich with blades being her phylactery. That's why she can control them the way she does - her soul is actually contained within them rather than her body.

And with how extensively champions' lores get updated, there is a reason to worry. So please, don't take that away from us - for once, expand on a character instead of completely changing them. That's all.

This aspect of Irelia's lore honestly felt like something Riot had decided not to acknowledge. It never came up in her VO or any other lore featuring the character.

While I do like it, and I think it gave her something a little unique, I doubt we'll see it carried forward, and I don't think it's high on the priority list.

And why is being a "Lich" so important?
