I like the Varus update.

Forewarning, I could be biased as I am gay. But I absolutely loved it. While watching the video, reading the comic, and seeing it all tie together, I felt so many emotions - but nothing negative. I loved that a man who's whole previous lore was built around a man in search of vengeance and heartbreak still got that, but something stronger made him into who he is today - love. I'm a big love story nerd, so I'm just so giddy that instead of living a life of loneliness, he is now someone who mentally stronger than a heartbroken man. He's a man who is fighting off the beast of wrath and living eternity with someone he loves. [slayer-pantheon-thumbs] Love the lore update.

I can't say that I've read the story - all I did was watch the music video. But during that, I never got the sense of "gay" out of those 2 people. The video at least made it seem more like a brotherly type of love than them actually going for each other in that way. Either way, though, I don't see why people are complaining. With all the lore updates that have happened, Varus didn't really fit into "Canon" lore. Therefore, there was no character of Varus in the universe - no character for them to claim he is or isn't, as after lore updates, he didn't exist.

Really I'm more interested in learning about the Darkin. I don't care if they're gay - they're literally fused together now, so what does it matter?

I like the story. I like the video. It’s still not Varus.

They could have been straight and their still would have been a riot lashing.

I am sorry new lore haters are ruining your thread. We won't all like the same thing, but I am.... actually I am bitter that you liked it, but that doesn't matter. We are all people and can choose to like things.

So, good for you. Riot knew some people would like it.
