Taliyah is a Stoneweaver, not a Stone Mage

I read Yasuo’s new lore and was thrilled, as a Taliyah main, to see her feature in it. I just wish she were called a “stoneweaver” instead of a “stone mage” in this line.

“There in the snow, he met Taliyah, a young Shuriman stone mage who had fled the Noxian military.”

Weaving and thread feature in her lore, character, development, powers, design, kit, and lines. She was called “stoneweaver” during development and even calls herself one during an in-game line, “Don’t mess with a stoneweaver!” The word itself is unique to League’s universe and would better ground the story in it. So, could the line be changed to this?

“There in the snow, he met Taliyah, a young Shuriman stoneweaver who had fled the Noxian military.”

Shrug. If i was yasou i would call her a stone mage too.

Shes a mage that uses stone.

It would be like calling a swashbuckler (a type of dnd fighter) a fighter. While not 100% correct it still fits.

She is both. She IS a stone mage who uses her power in a manner similar to that of a weaver.

The Weaver part merely tells us how she uses her power.

It's essentially the same thing. Shes a person who can magically control stone.

Well Yasuo doesn't have a laptop to google league universe/Taliyah to check if she is the Stoneweaver.So the thing that come in his mind was a mage (logically ) and she controls stones...Stone Mage
