The Next Lore Updates?

Slab SquatThrust·5/28/2016, 4:35:58 AM·3 votes·981 views

So I've seen that Riot tends to update large chunks of lore alongside with a new champion for that region, AurelionSol for Mount Targon and Taliyah for SHURIMA......( sry the inner Azir in me). So I will say that I'd LOVE for the next lore updated place to be Bandle City if possible. Not only to get us a legit new yordal, but also to update the lores of pretty much every yordal if possible. Now there are some Piltover yordals and kennen but all yordals with the exeption of maybe Gnar comes from Bandle City, and even then like 85% of the yordal lore is really outdated comparatively to most regions.The only one we really have whos lore is up to ou standanrds today is Poppy, and even then thats like 1 champion. Maybe you guys agree and maybe you don't but aybe say how ya feel, maybe we can get our 1 year late yordal.

P.S. Ammumu is not COMPLEATLY conformed yordal, so he dont count. Nor do I count the Poppy rework as a NEW yordal.

"Yordle", not "Yordal"

I really want it to be Noxus but with the assassin update coming later we might see it.

Bandle City/Yordles as a whole, or a Noxus update. That's what I'd like.

We'd probably get a Void update though. We've been getting a lot of connections.

Jaredan teased a bunch of times on his ASKfm that we can expect Narrative to delve into yordles a bit more later this year. :D

I too would like to know more about the yordles and Bandle City as a whole as well. With Poppy's rework, we learned of their magical abilities so it would be fascinating to learn more about the yordles in general.

Also Amumu was given a new lore update in the Shuriman lore update recently, so there's no worries about that. As for him being a human or yordle, that's still up to debate as his new lore implies.

I have a strong suspicion we will be incorporating the Void in the next lore update. There is a bit of cross-over for champion lore in Shurima and the Void (Malzahar RekSai come to mind) so maybe that will connect us to the Void next. Also, as already mentioned, the Mt. Targon update seemed to reference the Void several times too. I would be interested in anything at this point to be honest. I have been thirsting for this stuff lately.

I'd say Void considering how much attention they've been getting. Followed by Bandle City, that's my guess

I think a void or piltover/zaun update are the most likely ones.

Void seems likely because the last 2 places that got an update were both connected to the void(targon seems to be filled with void monsters and the new shurima lore makes it clear that shurima and icathia were enemy nations,shurima might even be the reason for icathias downfall)

However they also talked about how Jhin will travel to Zaun and will meet caitlyn and Vi there,which sounds like they have a story for that already in the works,which in turn means that they might focus on Zaun and piltover next.

The Void has been hinted in both Shurima and Targon lore, so they are probably the next and I must admit a new void champion would be amazing. If not, I'd like it to be freiljord.

Well, from what I know it's Frejlord. Like I'm not sure when or why but I can recall reading a comment from a rioter about it. Anyway even they don't know when it comes to lore... But I wish it was Noxus. Really tho.
