Please Rework Soraka's Lore

SorakaSoraka has been one of the oldest champions in League. She had a visual update, spell changes, buffs, nerfs but never did her lore changed which should have changed with Warwick'sWarwick lore who was the central figure of Soraka's lore.

**The short version of this lore connection: **

  • Warwick tricks Soraka into using her celestial powers in a harmful way by gaining her trust and scene an attack on himself. When Soraka became a mortal after losing her favor with the higher powers Warwick tries to kill her and take her heart for his potion of stable werewolf transformation.

Now you see that the new Warwick who never met Soraka, wasn't an alchemist and got transformed against his will has no connection with her.

She needs a new lore ASAP if you don't wish to confuse new players who might be interested in the background of the character they like to play.

Yesssssss update Raka lore!

Got nothing else to say, Raka just has so much untapped potential, and I really hope the Vastaya lore event doesn't count as Ionia's lore event, because then we'd have to wait longer. T_T

Totally agree!

Been pushing this issue as well.

I got a response from @Interlocutioner, who was the writer for Warwick's lore rework.

The link to my comment below also contains my original thread on this.

Like I've mentioned before, would love for Soraka's lore to explore her as a celestial being, possibly in relation to AurelionSol ( and Bard)

Hopefully we get to see this in the near future - would be fitting to come out with her new Star Guardian skin! [slayer-jinx-catface]

She's the healer of League, she is in dire need of a good VU and a lore update... but Riot hasn't even mentioned wanting to work on her.

yes she clearly needs an update and i think soraka will move to mt. targon too and will leave ionia. Lastly, i think her lore retcon will come along with pantheon VGU which will come soon i think (maybe next year)

i just hope giving her a skin wont be an excuse to say "we recently had an update for her so she can wait" :(

I think she should be sort of remade as Aurelion Sol's daughter or creation. They wouldn't have a father to daughter relationship of course, but as Aurelion Sol speaks of destruction and vengeance on those who would chain him, Soraka focuses on peace and preserving all of life. So this would create an estranged relationship between them. Aurelion Sol would be stronger than Soraka, but he would still never wish to kill his child.

Think of their relationship like Raven and her father Trigon.

Since the new lore is all crap, no, I think it'd be better if they didn't change her lore.

Probably not going to till they rework her again.
