"You have fallen for my trap card Tristana...just as I have fallen for YOU!" - Rumble

 The Meglings existed. But it disgusted the more powerful and prolific Yordles. While the yordles were geniuses with technology and were the fore-runners of all technological advancements, they were feel they were not respected as such due to their beast-like appearances. This resentment translated into prejudice and hate towards the cute and furless Meglings, the other vertically challenged race in Runeterra. Among the anti-Meglites was **Rumble** who invented all sorts of powerful contraptions to help him hunt down the Meglings.

 His inventions eventually culminated in his devastating "Equalizer Rockets" which burnt down houses and killed Meglings by the dozens. However after having wiped out all the Meglings he discovers a lone survivor among the Meglings. While preparing to finish her off he took a closer look and he fell in love! But...HOW?! How can a glorious and clearly advanced Yordle fall for a dirty furless Megling? How can a member of the supreme race fall for a disgusting meg?!

 The mechanic tried to ignore his lust for the little Megling, but eventually he has had it. With the coming of Gnar and his primitive Yordle transformation genes, Rumble has found the solution to his abomination of love. With the help of his fellow Yordle **Heimerdinger**, they kidnapped **Tristana** at the height of her power and success. They strapped and used **Gnar**'s DNA to perform a never before performed surgery to kill the Megling within **Tristana**...and to make her into the race that committed genocide on her own people. Rumble's raging storm of love inside can be calmed. He no longer bears a love that betrays his own pride as a Yordle. 

The Megling Tristana is no more...but is she truly a Yordle on the inside?

Meglings were their own race.

Rito decided to retcon the megling race and make all the tiny people yordles.

So, Tristana was changed from a Megling gunner to a megling gunner.

Difference?

Megling gunner is referring to her race.

megling gunner refers to her position within the Yordle militia known as "Megling Commandos"

It was genocide, my friends.

Rumble:"Why would you be so concerned over something that displayed so little resistance? My my...do we have a megling sympathizer on our hand? Perhaps I will have our 'special men' come over to your house and re-evaluate your loyalty."

Megling's are like Yordle swat teams or commandos, not a different race. Rumble is furry because he is a guy, Tristana isn't furry because she is a woman.

Think along the lines of how human men usually have beards, but human women don't. It isn't that weird.

I don't know, the way they phrased it...

Originally released a megling champion before uh... they all went away...

huh, I missed that part. Guess megling's were what they used to call Yordles before they were Yordles?

there used to be meglings and yordles, but then the Y.U.P. (Yordle Unification Project) happened, and they turned the meglings into yordles, and turned the race into a term for Trist's military unit

The Megling's Comandoes are like the police of Bandle City, changing the "tittle" of Tristana to "The Yordle Gunner" is stupid if you ask me... is like calling Miss Fortune "Sarah, The Human Gunner"

Yeah, but the lore of Tristana specifies:

The Megling Commandos are something of a legend in Bandle City. They have a history that spans centuries, and they remain the oldest yordle military unit still in service. They are renowned for their courage, deadliness, and ruthlessness, making them the most respected and feared of all warriors in Bandle City. Legends of Megling, the valiant founder of the commandos, are still heard throughout Valoran taverns.

Calling her "the Yordle Gunner" is like saying "She is the only yordle that uses a gun"

the lore got retconned with the Y.U.P. (Yordle Unification Project)
