My guess is that you are just gonna cram as many unnesesary champions into this event, completely changing their lore. We don't need to see any changes to every water-related champion. I just wanna see Gangplank and MissFortune, and possibly Nautilus . Don't get me wrong, I would love to see more story on Fizz, but if you put him into the event, he would just get most of his lore watered down like Skarner

Well, y'know, why keep any interesting details about Fizz when you can retcon him into random beach murloc encounter #125?

I hope they learned from their mistakes with the Shurima event and won't replace the lores of champs with their short versions if they aren't able to give us the full version.

Aside from that I think we'll see a few storys revolving around some champs from bg,I think Graves &TwistedFate are gonna be in the middle point,considering that there are a bunch of summoner icons about them and they even get 2 skins where they are partners(maybe they even show the 2 before tf betrayed graves?) Gangplank &MissFortune are likely to get some focus too,because they both get VUs and maybe even Tahm Kench(I doubt that his release is so close to the event by accident)

Nautilus &Fizz are the least likely to get any attention out of the BG champs,but who knows?

I dunno though who they could cram into BG,I mean the only champ who could kinda fit BG that isn't already related to that place is Nami and from the tidbits we got since she was released(like the aram-shopkeeper quote) it is safe to say that her search for the moonstone will remain.

when champion passive descriptions are longer than shurima champion lore...

Dude, you are trying to talk to the narrative here. The guys which have never listened to our feedback or wishes and think they can do no wrong. You are wasting words on them.

Hope is the mother of all idiots (no offense). And after hoping about a year for new lore or no more retcons, i lost any of this so called "hope".

I disagree. Anyone who has ties with bilgewater, should be fully explained in this soon to be event. Why? It makes up for the lack of content we didnt see in the past months/Year(s) Fizz arrived on Bilgewater first so why not have em?

Also, one of the Shop keepers on Butcher's bridge Knows nami

While I can get behind champs being involved with an event,I agree that completely rewriting their lore just so they can be a part of the faction for ONE event is unnecessary.

It needs Gangplank, MissFortune, Graves, and TwistedFate. All others aren't as necessary, but Nautilus and Tahm could be good.

A Miss Fortune7/8/2015, 3:11:07 AM2 votes

I want to see more of MissFortune story and how she actually became a renown Bounty Hunter and her ultimate goals for Bilgewater. I also want to know why Gangplank himself too wants to raise Bilgewater from some weak, polluted nation. It's interesting to see how they both want to make Bilgewater a strong nation. It would be nice to see something like what happened in the Harrowing, those two forcing themselves under a truce to unite and save Bilgewater from an enormous army. It would show that despite Miss Fortune and Gangplank's huge differences, that they both in the end want Bilgewater to be strong. I also liked how Nautilus made an appearence in the Harrowing to defend Bilgewater. Maybe he was defending where his old home was or something?

Seeing Graves and TwistedFate stories and how they really unfold would be nice too. There's not a whole lot. Basically they were conmen, some guy in a city far-far-away manipulated them and now they hate each other. Graves is an outlaw, Twisted Fate is some guy with magic card things. They have potential for a really interesting story.

Fizz and {{Tahm Kench Icon Here}} both are from Bilgewater, but they seem so random. I think Fizz needs a better story than. "A shark attacked a village, Fizz 1v1'ed the Shark. He's k with the Bilgewater citizens now.". I also want to see Tahm being more than just a Twisted Fate/Graves story 2.0. Where he's essentially a conman gone catfish.

Don't be silly, is unnecesary, Bilgewater has ENOUGH champions.

Graves TwistedFate Nami MissFortune Nautilus Fizz Gangplank And Tahm Kench

EVEN if some champion is mentioned like Evelynn i doubt it will change his aliance with Shadow isles (wich is not totally confirmed...)

And still if they want they can reference the harrowin, so...

To be honest, I find it hard to believe that the Bilgewater event would crap that many champions into it since there are so few champions that actually associate with Bilgewater in some form, and less that actually reside there.

Gangplank, Miss Fortune, Fizz and maybe Nautilus are largely the only permanent residents of Bilgewater in terms of champions playable in the game right now, and two of them were fairly recent releases while the other two are getting upgrades with the Bilgewater event.

Graves is the only other champion with any association to Bilgewater, but a good part of his lore is spent outside of it.

Darth Pixy Misa7/8/2015, 3:20:08 AM1 votes

So if we build team Bilgewater we get Tahm, MF, GP, Fizz, and Naut. Bilgewater needs Fizz he's their only AP champ.......

if they remove more lore we NEED to start a BOYCOTT RP thread again

Auroramancer7/9/2015, 2:30:06 AM1 votes

I'm actually hoping that Cutthroat Graves and Cutpurse TF are reflections back to who Graves and TF were in the past, obviously with Bilgewater influence.
