https://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/0/0d/Freljord_crest.png/revision/latest?cb=20161117021436 The Teaser of the new champion ornn And the little comments rioters let out , convinces me of just how important ornn is to the lore of the freljord. Now most( myself included) are convinced that the vgu of Nunu will be the one too update the lore of the freljord and that might still be the case but don't you think a champion as old as the freljord itself should herald its lore update. If I'm right and he does update freljordian lore then this is who I see is the most likely and unlikely to be included

Likely AsheLissandraSejuani: as the leaders of the major tribes at civil war, it would be insane not to include these three Anivia: the spirit of the freljord no doubt would be filled with tales of the region's past, And no doubt has a role to in its future Gragas: I want him included for the sheer purpose of having a comedic story in the mix

Unlikely Tryndamere OlafVolibear: although they all play key roles in the freljordian lore, their high priority in the vgu list makes me doubt their inclusion in the update TrundleBraum:they are as updated as can be but the former needs a short story while the later could use a more detailed bio Nunu: for the obvious reason that his vgu is very likely next year Udyr: his ties to the freljord are ambiguous at best as he also may have deep ties to ionia

And if I'm wrong and ornn is not the freljord lore update herald then I'm hoping for at least just a mini-lore update for the legends of the freljord Such as Anivia and Braum

Funnily enough, the first story sketch written for Ornn's ideation featured Gragas as the main POV character.

Yeah if Ornn brings us a freljord update,then it seems pretty likely for the 3 princesses to receive a lore update. I agree about Anivia also being a likely candidate,though I kinda doubt that Gragas will get one,simply because the universe page doesn't even treat him as a freljord champion anymore(Olaf seems more likely as a more comedic champion for the update)

Alternatively they might do one or two tribes for this update and then the others for the next one,but I think that is less likely to happen.

yep i'm hoping they'll update all except Volibear and specially Nunu because i'm hoping for a NUNU VGU next year. Trynda will not be update til 2020 so i'm hoping for a nice lore for him now.

Lastly, I also wish Gragas to be retcon as a Freljordian champ now considering Ornn has ties with him.

Speaking of Volibear how Rito didn't turn him and the Ursine into Vastayan? I mean in the short story of the vastayan there are in the freljord

I feel like Riot needs to start bringing out actual Frozen Watchers or abandon the storyline because right now it's The Tribes + The Trolls + The Ursine + Anivia & Udyr. I'll assume Ornn is probably gonna side with them as well and you start to get the idea that Lissandra doesn't stand a chance. Oh, and the Yetis as well. Nunu & Willump would also presumably side with the Avarosa.

The only actual irrelevant champions in the Freljord are Gragas and Tryndamere (his relationship with Ashe doesn't seem to be cannon anymore ever since his lore update with the Aatrox release).
