Am I the only one who felt a shiver down my spine and a whisper in my ear cooing "Outrageous~"

I'm a bit surprised of these changes: Diana actually seems to go into a more neutral direction,her short lore doesn't talk about her crusade against the solari,so maybe that part will get scrapped(or at least won't be permanent,maybe she realizes that she should take another way?)

Leona on the other hand seems to become a bit darker in terms of character,I mean "Leona brings enlightenment to some, death to others" sounds a bit harsh.

Pantheon surprised me the most.I mean the changes of the others are only slightly implied,but in Pantheons case,he went from "dude who is good at war" to "avatar of war"(the mention of him becoming the incarnation of the celestial aspect of war also sounds very interesting). While it does help making him stand out a bit more(Pantheon VU incoming?),I kinda hoped that Pantheon would become the kind of guy who is good at war and always talks about war....but doesn't actually enjoy it so much.You know the kind of character who acts like everyone expects him to act,who ultimately has a hard time to be himself. But well that was personal wishthinking of mine,mainly based on his baker-joke,so its no surprise to me that he didn't turn out like that xD

Overall I get the impression that Targon seems to be split into multiple sub-factions(well not that that is something entirely new) and that it is a place where the gods seem to be quite active(maybe Targon is basically becoming the mount Olympus of LoL?)

Pantheon is now an avatar of war.

I'm fine with this. He already did crazy stuff as human, being an earthly avatar is appreciated.

Leona's change rubs me the wrong way... I've been in love with her character since her release, and a large part of that came from her strong yet merciful demeanor. I liked that she was a defender. And in my mind, I've always saw her as someone that would restort to fighting as a last resort.

But truth be told, the lore change is too short for me judge... So we'll see.

Diana's lore is taking a more neutral direction -- I don't like it. In her login music, you hear her sorrow, her pain, her anger, as her misplaced trust became forged into a cold, unforgiving scorn. Diana had arguably the most compelling lore in the game, especially when considering the amount of depth in such a short passage. Her crusade against the Solari was cruel, and perhaps, morally wrong; but it also, somehow, felt righteous: this is what made her lore so great.

Does this make Diana, Leona, and Pantheon ascendants?
