Jhin's color text and the Yasuo promo are now on the Universe website |

It is finally possible to find the Jhin color text and Yasuo promo at the Universe. The Rek'Sai follow-up/promo is still missing, tho.

They used to be missing at the Universe website.

However, one thing is strange. In the german version of the Jhin color text it does have a title (The man with the steel cane). Shouldn't it be consistent?

Edit: "The man with the steel cane" is a different color story than the normal Jhin color text. The first act is pretty similiar but not quite the same, the second one is the same (as far I can tell it), but the third is a completly different one. I will try to translate it, but languages aren't my strenght, I'm afraid. If I don't die from self-loathing, I will postthe translation at the boards in the next few days.

its kinda disappointing that universe main page is not updated with all the latest stories or there is no easy way to learn/see a list of all the recent updated lores. navigating the universe is a bit clunky so its easy to miss story updates like this.

Jep, I agree with you. The Universe site could have a blessing for us, but the site is incredible sloppy made. The Search function? A goddamit joke. You can't even tip the name of the color text or short stories, it will find nothing. You only search champions and regions with it. There a lot of things missing and as you mentioned, no way to look after the last update. I found the Jhin Color Text by accident and intentional looked after the Yasuo and some other missing.

The last thing, that annoyings me to death is the inconsistency. Why does the Jhin color text in german has a title? Why did they translate the Medarda map to german, but not the Vastayan family tree? Why I have to go for 352432 links to find the Vastaya Race page?

Even the Ornn teaser has the same problem. If you have selected the north american region at the Universe site, you can find the teaser, if you go to the Freljord articel and click on the horn from the Champion Roadmap. But for EUW english and german region it doesn't work, as usual.

'cause, you know, it isn't like the biggest playerbase is actually the European one...

Rito, pls.

I'll pass your comments along to the Universe team (who are working hard at a variety of things). Thank you all for the feedback!

Hey Jaredan! Slightly unrelated, but is there any chance we can get these Demacia concepts added to the Demacian regional page on Universe? They showed up in the Demacian /dev diary but never actually got posted up to the website. Noxus and Piltover have similar images of their soldiers/citizenry too, so it'd be cool to see them for Demacia also. I think Ant in Oz mentioned he'd try to get them in a while back, but we never heard of them since.

I'm glad that my feedback matters. Even if it was a little bit impolite, I'm afraid...

I actually have a few question. First thing first. I personally want to send feedback about the Universe website anyway (I do not only bitch about things, I actually try to improve them as well) but I would prefer to do it in my native language, so I can be as precise and detailed as possible. However, I'm afraid that my feedback would basically vanish since it isn't in english . Can I be sure that my feedback will be heared even if I write it in german?

Second thing, I wasn't exaggerate about the spelling mistake and missing punctuation mark in the german translation. Where can I report these? I really have the feeling, nobody is proofreading the translation. The errors are pretty easy to spot.

Last thing. "The man with the steel cane" (the german Jhin Color Text) is actually a different story than the NA got. The first act is pretty similiar but not quite the same, the second is the same (the Shen & Zed conversation), but all the third act is literally a whole new story and I find it really weird, that only the german ones have access to it. When do you guys plan it to publish it all regions?

The Twitch short story is there to.

During the Demacia event, the short stories had different names for me on OCE compared to S@20 on NA, so this wouldn't be the first inconsistency with story names.

Lady FacelessAug 6, 20172 votes

If you mean the Twitch Color Text, it has been a while out.

But yeah, inconsistency with the lore and its translation is nothing new, I'm afraid.

EpicurusAug 6, 20171 votes

I only noticed it a few days ago. It is one of my favourite short stories.

It looks like they changed Jhins color text a bit for the universe site. Because if I remember correctly,then his main bio used to be Act I,while the short story acted as act II-IV. Now the short story starts as Act I and ends on a IIII

Lady FacelessAug 6, 20171 votes

Jep, I checked it, you are right. His lore is the first act, then we got the II-IIII.

It could be also sign that we finally get as fourth act the Jhin arives at Zaun story. That would be my guess.

GreenLoreAug 6, 20171 votes

I think it was simply done to avoid confusion with the format. The format on the champion page lists the short storys right below the bio,so in Jhins case you could read from 1 to 4 in one go. But on the universe page it'd seperate his first act(the bio) from the others.

Would be also a possibility.
