Why was Varus even changed in the first place Riot?

His lore was amazing, and I'm pretty sure no one was complaining about it... Why Varus instead of someone like Nunu or Cho'Gath?

Sad thing is, I would have been fine with the change if the lore was actually GOOD. Varus used to have been the true personification of Vengeance (in my eyes), but with the update, his personality feels so muddled and wonky that I honestly feel bad for the champ.

Outdated lore in respect to the rest of the modern League paradigm. Plus, he was a special source of narrative anguish considering his bow is the Darkin Bow and yet, none of that was really addressed properly in his old lore, especially with the reimagining of the Darkin as sentient weapons who are capable of possessing people like demons.

In other words, Varus likely wouldn't have needed a lore change if the Darkin lore never got updated.
