New Zaun Page, but no Singed or Twitch story?

First off, just gotta say I absolutely loved the new Piltover lore, and Zaun's lore is looking just as promising. However, it seems that and are not on the list to receive a new Bio and Story. I know that Singed is somewhere on the list for a VGU, but Twitch has already been reworked. I hope Riot has some kind of plan for the two, as Singed is a pretty big figure in Zaun but I don't see why Twitch is no where on the list too.

NOTE: For the longest time I thought Singed and Twitch were somewhat connected, as in Twitch was another small experiment Signed had long ago. However, they seem to show no relation whatsoever, so It's probably just me.

Unfortunately Riot didn't have the bandwidth to get to them this time around, so they won't be updated with this Zaun event. It sucks yes but that's just the way of it.

I'm just happy they at least have some narrative context for their existence and colour stories.

That could have a been a bullshit answer though. Think about it. Singed is pretty big in the recreation of Warwick. Singed is also taunted by Camille as searching for immortality, which isn't currently in his lore. That's a lot of set up if they're ignoring him. Furthermore, we now know Singed is dabbling in transmutation and chemical gene splicing. That's how he made Warwick. I can't help but think that there's another anthropomorphic animal hybrid beast roaming around in the sewers of Zaun, armed with chemicals...

Just because they couldn't put together a bio for Singed or Twitch doesn't mean they don't know the ins and outs of that character. They understand their champs, it's a matter of getting a bio and short story made and localized within deadlines. Sometimes it just doesn't pan out.

All I'm saying is that of the champions in most need of being overhauled with Warwick's relaunch, Singed was super high on that list because of his extremely close story ties to Warwick. It would just be too odd if he wasn't prioritized over characters like Jinx, Janna, and Blitzcrank.

Well, maybe not Blitz and Jinx.

And before you make an argument against Jinx, she's tied in with Ekko, Vi, and Cait. And, by the looks of it, is about to appear in a story with Vi and Cait due to the color texts from the Piltover Event.

As for Blitz, they are obligated to do Viktor after they did Jayce. Blitz is heavily tied to Viktor due to being his creation, so now we get to see what Blitzcrank is now in relation with V-man.

True that But then again perhaps of his big importance they had to make sure it was done right. Maybe even make twitch another gen experiment by singed
