After reading the new color texts

I have to say that my favorite is Vi, Jayce, and Orianna's.

Vi: Perfectly representing the character we all know and love. She's brash, she's hands on, and she asked questions while punching. Riot captured her perfectly. Though her background lore leads to a mystery: What happened that caused Vi to disappear and then start working with Caitlyn.

Orianna: I knew what was coming but that didn't stop me from enjoying the execution. I find her new character interesting, though I'm wondering if Riot has a thing for characters that lost their humanity. Her background text was also the most tragic I have ever read. Onion Ninja tragic.

Jayce: Riot, you ain't pulling punches. Jayce is a dick and you made it clear, but also that he's not pretending not to be. His hero persona is a result of others view on him, whereas he'd rather not deal with it. I also enjoy the dynamic with Viktor in how you actually made them "friends" rather than just two scientists. But what I loved most was how damn awkward (was that the right word) he is to social situations. Calling that girl stupid made my damn day.

Can't wait for Zaun. Will love to see how you write it out from Viktor's perspective.

I feel pretty much the same way.

Especially with Orianna. Her bio and color text gave me the feels and an urge to hug her.

I love that the Caitlyn and Vi's texts leave so many doors open for them to expand and give us more juicy stories with those two. I'm glad I didn't get everything now, that'd be horribly short lived!

My favorite bit had to be Vi and Jayce's personalities though. I made a post about Jayce's but Vi is everything I love and everything I was hoping she'd be-- personality, mannerisms, interactions-- they're flawless. I look forward to what they have to come!

Very well written stories indeed. Cannot wait for how the crazier champs from Zaun will play out.

I'm just happy that they didn't retcon 'C'.

I wouldnt use the word "Dick" per say for Jayce, maybe more of an arrogant know-it-all who lacks even the slightest courtesy for anyone and has the social skills of a rock while also keeping his god-tier jawline. what a jerk. I love him.

While I dislike Viktor's personal representation in Jayce's story I do like the way Jayce is. it's funny and I actually like the character, it's a shame it's also the source of something I'm very angry about.

favourites are

1.Orianna I think they did well staying true to Orianna's desire to be a champion, and that ending tragically 2/3.Caitlyn Caitlyn: Hat Origins. That's the important part. 2/3.Vi Short, sweet, and to the punch. 4.Jayce Despite Viktor's part in it I actually liked Jayce's lore. I feel a kinship with Jayce and his callous disregard to others. If not for the presentation of Viktor I would have enjoyed it more. 5.Ezreal The writing was good, just not into Ezreal
