VARUS PSA: Read the whole lore before you post please

Based on what I've seen on the board it seems people are only reading the comics and judging based on that and that isn't really fair to the work they have put into it.

In the original lore Varus was an ionian who used a evil power he was suppose to contain to seek vengeance for his family against Noxus.

In the new lore they officially made Varus into a Dark kin and he is seeking VENGEANCE for all the Dark Kins that died in the war by killing humans as he search for his sister the 4th of the 5 remaining Dark Kin, while fighting the influence of Valmar and Kai. The comic is about how VARUS was revived by two the Ionians.

So no, VARUS isn't gay but the two people who are trapped within him is.

the quote from the long post of JacctheInsomniac says it best:

" I don’t believe that Riot respected Varus and his fans when they made this update. I do not think they agonized over their decisions when making this character, I don’t think that they scoured the web for anything related to what was his official lore the way we, the fans did. The story we received does not feel like it was from a team that cared about remaining “true to Varus.” It feels like a team that cared about who they wanted Varus to be, and tried to weave in nods to who Varus was to mitigate the disappointment they knew they would receive, but also knew they could ignore. I say that I don't believe any of this because I am trying to remain cogniscient of the fact that none of it could be true. But the story we were left with is the only evidence I have, and this is what that story tells me."

The expansion of varus as a darkin is good, but the fact he has consumed 2 mortal beings and overtaken them, yet they somehow still pester him internally like default Kayn , I don't have hope for playing the character when there are 3 voices on one character, I want to play a champion, not a schizophrenic.
