I'm glad Riot is investing in these cinematics but can we please get a map of Valoran?

I think I would prefer a map over another ambiguous champion cinematic. I mean, how can I feel engaged in the world if I don't know where things are? Is Valoran even still called Valoran? Did that get retconned too?

;_;

Is a map too much to ask for? Even the worst amateur fantasy novels published online have a map...

TV Announcer: Are you tired of the same old Grand Runecanyon? Father [bored]: Well, here we are, kids. The Grand Runecanyon. Girl [annoyed]: It's so old and boring! I want a new one. NOW!! Riot: Hello. I'm Riot. The Lore Department has lost its credibility, so it's borrowing some of mine. Boy: Tousle my hair, Mr. Riot! Riot: Sure thing, son. [ruffles the boys hair with a touch of magic and chuckles] Now I am pleased to tell you about the new Grand Runecanyon. Coming this weekend, it's east of Noxus and west of Demacia! Summoner: That's where the Institute of War is!! Riot: It's nowhere near anything is or ever was. This is Riot saying if you're going to pick a game company to trust, why not this one?

I can offer you a partial map - specifically of the Shurima area. Sorry I don't have more for you.

(Standard disclaimer - I'm not on the narrative team, but I did get to design this map working with some of them, last year. (I really enjoyed it, as I'm a bit of a map nerd!))

If the map on the wiki is accurate, then it needs an update. Maps are a huge part of the lore (it's the setting after all). Everything is so close, there's only one continent and it just seems kind of generic

Glad you can talk about it. So to start the discussion, where are the Summoners? What's near to them?

only read the red posts/related comments but for the people who posted the "map" of the Harrowing.......aparently we need to retcon Nautilus as part of Shadow Isles now cause one of the events says " Reports of a large figure encased in a rusted diving suit seen in the heart of the fighting."
