Can a Rioter confirm if we'll get more Bandle City stories now that Yuumi is confirmed Bandle?

I've been waiting patiently for a new Bandle City Champion, as I expected that we'd get more lore with a new one as most regions do. I do think Yuumi's story offered decent lore, & I'm happy we got that, but I want to know if we'll get more?

Also, correct me if I'm wrong... but I remember reading on a Twitter post, or an Ask Riot from late 2018 about how yordles, & Bandle City will get more lore in 2019. I don't remember the Rioter who posted it, but I remember reading it somewhere.

The Book of Thresholds I find extremely interesting & it gave us more information on how the gateways work & a little more insight on yordle writing. I think it's a really solid foundation, but I do think Bandle is still lacking a lot when compared to other regions.

Compare the Bandle City page to any other region. Every other region has images of what it looks like, some go over what the culture is like & all of them have several short stories. Bandle doesn't really have much. It has a paragraph explaining that Bandle City is this unknown place & no one really knows where it is.

I'm just curious on if Bandle will be getting more lore as Yuumi gets closer to her release. Yuumi is the first Bandle City Champion since Lulu released & she was in 2012. It's been such a long time & Bandle City's lore really hasn't changed too much, while every other region is fleshed out. If Bandle doesn't get lore right now, I'm content with waiting more, but it has been buzzing around my mind for quite some time now & it would be nice to know if it's soon.

There have been a few instances where Rioters said BC is getting an update so I think you're on the safe side with that assumption ;)

That was the Universe in 2019 video.

And I am pretty sure there will be more to come, at the very least Yuumi should get a color story on tuesday.

I really hope Teemo gets... something. Its felt awkward knowing that my main, not only as one of the first Yordles and my favorite champion by and far has existed in what amounts to a nebulous void with very little connecting him to the world, other characters, and the lore. Like most Yordles he hasn't had an update in years and if someone were to ask me where Teemo fits in Leagues story I honestly couldn't tell them anything that dosn't still relate to when the Institute of war was still a thing. Even his current bio they updated some time ago is so horrifically vague that it makes me kind of sad just reading it.
