Reminder: Twitch' lore is still not updated

Unfortunately, Twitch has been left out in the Zaun lore update back then when Warwick's VGU released.

I want to finally read about his plans to end humanity. Is he placing poison bombs all over the city? Is he assassinating people one by one in dark corners? Just tell us what this guy is actually doing!

Also, Zac is noted as a related champion for Twitch since forever and we still didn't have any interaction between these 2 in the lore! Considering Twitch' goal and that Zac is basically a superhero saving people in Zaun, I think Twitch' should become the main antagonist in Zac's superhero saga.

Maybe Zac is even able to heal the people which got attacked by Twitch and cure his poison? Please start developing their story.

Suggestion

Also I want to point out, if Riot ever wants to make canon lore VS events a thing, then Twitch VS Zac would be the perfect candidates for this. We could get a video in which Twitch places some poison bombs down in Zaun. Zac finds out about his plan some way and has to find the bombs to purify the poison before they blow up.

Then the VS event could either let us decide the outcome of the story (Twitch wins: bombs kill hundreds of people in Zaun, Zac wins: he can stop the attack in time and saves everyone) or plan the end beforehands and they let us witness the end of the story from the point of view of the winner. They could also add new skins for these 2 alongside the event (Zac desperately needs a new skin) and even new chemtech themed loot, like Twich' poison casks as skin boxes.

I would absolutely love Twitch to not get any lore updates ever because Riot's lore writers are abysmal and god only knows theyre either former marvel-writers or so obsessed that all they can DO is copy Marvel wholesale and I dont see Capeshit writers, either way, doing a good job writing a 4-foot tall terrorist rat psycho with a crossbow very well. Theyd probably throw in some "justification" for why Twitch wants to exterminate those nearly-hairless pests that keep wandering into his sewers and why he's 'a misunderstood extremist' and 'not problematic'.

Corrections to your reminders

  • Twitch got his lore update with his visual update. Outdated nowadays, but he got one.

  • Related part doesn't mean much nowadays. It means nothing mostly if champ's not new. Jax has Gragas, Talon has Quinn etc. etc.

  • Similar to how stuff played in Demacia, I doubt you'll ever get that Zac and Twitch stuff you are dreaming about. Maybe one of them can be mentioned in a random sentence.

And Twitch vs Zac? Huh?

Twitch VS Zac would honestly be a bad VS-event as there isn't an established rivalry between these 2. They are listed as related and since Twitch hates humanity it is likely that they are enemies, but we don't know for sure.

Besides so far their VS-events focused around skinlores so even if Twitch and Zac were chosen, it is unlikely that they'd receive a lore update.
