I Think Should Riot Produce An Ongoing Story Within Runeterra That Is Cannon With LoL's Lore!

But let's be honest, Riot doesn't care about it's lore. Sure, they produce 2-4 lore events per year, because it's expected of them, but the devils in the details. Let's take a closer look.

Riot deleted Summoners out of Runeterra's. That's a pretty big hit. It makes a heck of a lot of Runeterra's lore complete nonsense.

It's been over a year, and we still see quite a lot of champion lore dependent on the existence of summoners...which is heartbreaking and depressing.

I wanna see Runeterra develop. I wanna see a reason to log in every week to see what's going on in Runeterra. That's my mindset here.

Sorry if my LoL season 1/2 attitude is showing, but I really miss what LoL used to be. It wasn't just a competitive game focused on e-sports...although admittedly that aspect was there (and I have no qualms with that).

I tried to write something that comes across as moderate here...but I can't.

Riot's completely abandoned Runeterra over the last year or two. Each new champion release has an event based around it, but none of those events have ever made any significant impacts on Runeterra.

Riot decided to "delete" summoners from their lore (correct me if I'm wrong), and neglect give any clarifications on the many champion's that don't make sense without summoner's existing, and how they make sense.

And thats why people complain about your threads.

Your title is cool and all and could make for an interesting discussion,but your opening post is pretty much "so lets change the subject,i dislike riots new lore"

Not to mention that you conveniently decide to ignore burning tides and shadow&fortune,who both drived the lore forward.Sure they had no big impact on runerterra as a whole(but no old story had that,even the kalamanda conflict only affected noxus and a bit demacia),but they did proceed the storys of the champs(MF got her revenge and went through character development,TF and Graves settled their rivalry,GP fell from the top,Bilgewater managed to survive the harrowing)

There wouldn't be a lore team if they didn't care about lore. We wouldn't have writers if they didn't care.

Stop mistaking lower frequency for lack of care.
