A devblog pertaining to Riot's thought process behind Hextech from an aesthetic level, and how that's informed their design work. It links in to the aesthetic of the new client in a few ways. Take a read if you're interested!
Ralanr2 votesWell now I imagine we are Piltover citizens in the far future running a machine that simulates people from days long past.
Sharjo2 votesThat's been my head canon for Summoner's for a while now. Maybe not from Piltover since we dunno how Hextech will develop in Runeterra's future, but regardless Summoner's being tied to hextech seemed like the natural course for the narrative when they announced they were gonna be using hextech's design as inspiration for the new client.

HalfTangible1 votesNah, there's a limit to how many of those stones there are. We would've found an alternate power source by this point.
Probably the souls of children abandoned by their mothers.
Mogarl1 votesNah we already know what the alternate power source would be. https://imgur.com/a/v7LjD
