What do you think of the giants being a menace to Bandle City?

If you are confused, a giant was antagonizing Bandle City in Heimerdinger's long-form bio.

We haven't heard anything about giants before or since. I assume this will be the main nuisance handled by the Bandle Gunners and Co., whom and represents (I assume). The question is, could this behemoth intruder be someone we know, or is it a new race of Valoran yet to be established?

If we explore the former, maybe it's ? He doesn't really have a new home in Valoran yet. If it's the latter, maybe Bandle City is now closer to The Great Barrier (if it's still canon) and Mt. Targon, where giants would fit into the influencing mythology?

What do make of this giant mystery?

I suppose that they were talking bout a giant yordle.

Who is a giant yordle?

Gnar

A regular sized human would be considered a giant to a yordle, aaaand ive always assumed thats what Heimers lore was talking about.

Allthough, retconing in a race of giants would make sense for Gragus and Sion.

Yeah the question is if that was really a giant or a regular human (or maybe just a very big human). Anyway I'd like to hear more about said giant

I would think its an actual giant and not Gnar or a large human.

Bandle City is pretty secluded from the rest of Runeterra, so its entirely possible a race of giants lives in the nearby mountains.

Mega Gnar would appear like a werebeast to a modern yordle. So you would think Heimer would use terms like, "creature", "beast", or "monster" to describe him.
