I want to say that from reworked Poppy and onwards, everyone has been hatin on Noxians, with Swain and Darius being the go to targets. It's like I know Noxians aren't the most popular people around but damn does everyone hate them. I'm not expecting or wanting Noxian supports/sympathizers but I am expecting new/reworked/updated Noxians to have some excellent retorts and sick burns for all the haters out there.

The Noxians have noticed. They have ears everywhere, and even more eyes.

We had a bit of lore on what is life in the Noxus slums from Karthus and it seemed they were poor, but not unhappy by having a functional commune.

It is a empire, it has ranks, but it is confirmed it is NOT all doom and gloom. You can be a normal civilian.

Well I mean they're the biggest single nation in Runeterra of course they get dissed.

How does Poppy have anything to do with this? Her reworked lore actually removed her hatred for Noxus.

considering they like to go around conquering places i would think a large assortment of people hate them. they are always looking to expand their empire, so they like to invade.

I just hope that there isn't a dichotomy created with Demacia being the "good guys" and Noxus being the "bad guys." In all honesty, I think there are some people in Noxus who genuinely believe in the idea of strength and power and that Noxus can be a great nation (Darius Riven). Sure, Noxus has it's brand of assholes (Leblanc Swain , not entirely confirmed, but suspicious folk) but there's good people who believe in the idea of strength and power.

i think it has more to do with the base fact that the noxians are seen more as the "bad guys" and demacians as the "good guys". I have to say though. because they have more gritty back stories it makes their lore a bit more interesting
