In their new lore, Yordles appear to be more magical as a species. They hang around people that represent their ideas, but how advanced is their technology now? Is Heimer a natural genius, or did he learn about science from Piltover?
Technology in runeterra IS a kind of Magic.
All tech is hextech. Even guns. Hextech is just machines that run on magic. So it makes sense that yordles are gifted with it
I mean That gun of Tristana's is pretty high tech, and in their old lore it was implied they came to earth on a rocket called the Mothership so... I dunno
Well I mean yordles seemingly make their own technology and then power it via magic. So they probably act to it as the norm in some situations.
