Hey, I'm quite new to LoL lore so i just want to clarify if the lore from the new game, Legends of Runeterra, and the lore from League's website and the main game are the same. I don't want to confuse the lores if they are different as I'm still reading the stories and I'm watching Necrit's video about the lore of Legends of Runeterra.
LoR has some lore- relevant cards/facts. If you truly want to learn about lore however, you need to learn from League of Legends Universe website. There you will find all the lore that is canon. If you know the main lore then LoR is a good addition to that as many of the cards contain hints and extend the actual lore from LoL by giving it easter eggs! You do need to read the lore from LoL first because then you will be able to tell and see that other aspects of LoR and some cards do not actually make any sense when it comes to canon stories. So while some of the stuff is lore- relevant in LoR, others are not. https://universe.leagueoflegends.com/en_GB/
It seems that many of the cards in Legends of Runeterra can't be taken as canon. There is too much stuff going on in these cards that doesn't make sense lore-wise. So if you really want to understand the lore and world that Riot has built here, just rely on LoL Universe.
Thanks for all your answers, I'll read the stories in the website first before diving into the new games.
tbh, they change lore so much that it doesnt matter at this point
