Lore for Skins?

Writing Teacher·Oct 15, 2014·3 votes·927 views

Imagine if each skin had it's own story to it?? Has this been in the discussion? Because personally I think it would be cool to maybe unlock more sections in your lore tab when you buy a skin and for each skin there would be a corresponding story as to how the champ found themselves as that skin - How did Annie become Annie in Wonderland for example, or Trist as Guerilla Trist? Would it to be too difficult? Would the overall lore be comprised with holes? Or is it just not a good idea lol... I don't know, hire me Riot lol I'll come up with something.

Not wanting to be cycnical but chances are Riot will just use it as an excuse as to why we still dont have progessiing lore

"Ya we could continue those stories, but we're too busy.....writing skin lore....ya that's it. -writes a three sentence lore for each skin, processedingly claims there will be more soon-"

To my knowledge, Riot never said they were too busy to make lore. They just came out and said "lore too hard, were gona tone it down alot".

They never used "we're still writing lore" as an excuse, but the lore team does have a tract record of constantly saying things only to turn around and it ends up being a complete lie/excuse.

"IoW is still canon, we just want champion bio to be more focused about them"

Is most likely their most infamous one.

The problem with that is,that this kind of lore would take a lot of effort,which would then mean we'd get even less lore than before. However its not like there is no skin-lore. Some skins do have lore(like the bc-line),its just not very much.
