Why is there even a Story and Art section, when there is no lore present? It should just be art.

Honestly, this retcon was one of the worst decisions Riot has made.

There is still lore but we went from: http://lol.gamepedia.com/Skarner_-_The_Crystal_Vanguard

To this: *Skarner, the crystalline guardian, defends the entrance to a realm deep beneath the Shuriman wastes. The few who survive trespassing his domain describe a creature of terrifying intelligence, anger, and precision. What this merciless creature protects, no one knows. *

For instance.

"What this merciless creature protects, no one knows."

That's some fanfiction tier writing. Mysterious cliffhanger. ;_;

Skarner : I miss my kind.

Then where would we go to bitch about the lack of lore?

Gameplay and Balance? Beats me.

Nah, there's already enough complaining going on there. We'd probably have to flood Miscellaneous.

BlitzidiousMar 15, 20155 votes

The 'Lore' of post retcon is already Miscellaneous, so, you know, might as well. Right?

I was literally just thinking about this. You guys remember all the cool ass theories fan came up with based on old lore? There isn't even room in 5 sentences to discuss any story anymore.

Edit: Only 3 Sentences in Skarners lore.

It really is said there isn't just a Lore section, but there's hardly any lore to talk about. I really miss the old lore section of the forums, there was usually decent active discussion. I didn't always comment but sometimes did and usually lurked but still...
