From Reav3's response to questions as follows

So Urgot VGU is first? Will Noxus lore come with it, or will it wait for Swain VGU? Yup. Check out the Champion Update Schedule.

Reav3: Urgot has always been before Evelynn."

Can I assume the "Yup" goes for Noxus lore too?

Reav3: Nope. I wouldn't assume to much about Urgot's updated lore :)" ref: https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/story-art/6d4RFgMY-splah-art-updates?comment=000100040000000100000000000000000000

Is this a hint that we might not see Urgot spearheading Noxus lore relaunch? And by this meaning. The only one who can take this duty perfectly is Swain and Considering many hints from Rakan's vo to Reav3's curious his VGUs might come soon.

Anyway, It's still too early to assume anything until Reav3's blog and it doesn't mean that Urgot would not be Noxian anymore. I think he would still be Noxian but the spotlight would shed more on his Zaunite aspect.

Bad news is. It looks like Reav3 would announce only one candidate who can go to production stage this time.

Swain should honestly be spearheading the Noxus event.

Swain should just be updated next so I can get his and Vlad's updated lore.

I'm thinking that after the update urgot won't even be part of noxus anymore. He barely was any way. I'm thinking he is going to be Zaun related.

Urgot may go full zaun in the rework. Makes sense given how he is.

Noxus is the second largest nation in terms of lore we had up until now, second to Ionia. Those two regions need to be fleshed out way in advance before we even get a standard lore event similar to the rescent ones for Demacia, Piltover and Zaun.

I believe Urgot will be a Zaun champion after the relaunch since everything about his aesthetic screams Zaun. The only way people know he is from Noxus is from his lore. If you were to look at Darius, you could likely be able to say he was from Noxus. if you look at Urgot, most would say Zaun just by looks.

Plotwist: Riot prefers to expand his undead aspect, so, he becomes an undead man with spider legs from The Shadow Isles

A Noxian update can't disregard Swain, and if Swain is in queue for the VGU then we'll have to wait for it :c

Then again, Noxus' lore is so rich and good, even if it's really old and tied to the Journal of Justice.

We can only hope we get something big and juicy.

They didn't wait for Jarvan to bring Demacia event so they don't have to wait for Swain to do the Noxus one
