So now that Ionia got its showing, where are we going next? Bandle City?

I'd say it's high time the Yordles got some more exposition.

Bilgewater is next it seems

I'm sure the next one is bildgewater and after that is a darkin lore. Don't lose hope though cause we don't know yet the lore stories dedicated in the second half of the year.

Freljord is next with Nunus Update after Akali, after that is fair game what region is gonna get some fleshing out, maybe Corki will bring forth the Bandle City lore update soon.

Bandle City is the only place that did not get an event, all other regions had now

Sigh I really wish we got something for Shadow isles, since riot have decided they're going to skip over the Harrowing now

Shadow Isles got its event after Bilgewater did

Bilgewater will be next,as they mentioned in a devblog that it'll come after the Ionia event.

Given the release schedule it is likely that we'll get a Bilgewater champ as the next big release and the bilgewater update will certainly update the lore of Nautilus and maybe Fizz (Fizz isn't listed as a Bilgewater champ anymore,but he is at least sea related,so he could get an update).

After that we'll see some darkin lore with Aatroxs VGU,which will surely update Aatrox himself and maybe Tryndamere

However we don't know what Riot has planned after that,these updates above will likely all be released within the first half of the year. They want to focuse on smaller lore updates this year and give us one with each major release,so it is likely that we'll visit Ionia again with Akalis VGU(most likely more focused on the kinkou and the order of the shadows) and its pretty sure that the next VGU after Akali will be Nunu who would likely come with a Freljord update(unless they retcon him into a yordle,in which case a yordle update could happen).

It was also said that they do want to return to Noxus again later this year https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/story-art/vJoMWjvO-new-noxus-lore-lads-get-hyped?comment=00090001

(Which also might hint at a new Noxus-champ)

Other than that it seems rather likely that Kayle & Morgana also have a VGU in the works,in which case we'd likely see an angel-update.

So all in all I'd say a Bandle city update is sadly rather unlikely for this year,because if they really update Kayle and Morgana and release a new Noxus champ,then we'd already know almost all the big updates of the year. Though personally I do hope that we get a Bandle update anyway,because Bandle city is the only place that never received a lore update and honestly we currently know almost nothing about the place.
