I hope this Kled character gives us a perspective on the positive sides of Noxus.

Because we've been sorely missing some of that.

Honestly I'm just glad we're going back to Noxus. The last officially new Noxian was Draven (Sion's not technically new). You wanna know when he was released?

The sixth of June, 2012.

That's right. 20 fucking 12.

It's been over four years since we've had a new Noxian. About sodding time.

I just wonder if we're going to get a Noxus update page similar to Targon & Shurima. Both of these regions & their champs's lores were updated around the time a new champ for said region came out. Aurelion Sol for Targon & Taliyah for Shurima, though Sol wasn't announced when the Targon update started.

It would be cool if they do a similar thing with Kled's release. It would be great to have a solid update on Noxus & it's champs. Yeah, we got hints of what Noxus is like from other champion teasers & backstories, but Noxus is often just the antagonist or not the main focus (Karthus's backstory). Let's shine the spotlight on Noxus from the POV of the champs of Noxus.

Cassiopeia Darius Draven Katarina Leblanc Riven Sion Swain Talon Urgot Vladimir, I want to see update the bios updated for these guys. And before anyone says anything, I don't really consider Morgana a part of Noxus. Yeah, in the old lore she lived there, but her story isn't solely tied there. Urgod knows what the hell is up with her & Kayle in the new lore. As for Annie, it depends on what they would do for her backstory. It could go either way.

Yeah, I guess I can say it's not really Kled him, her, it or themself I'm hyped for. I'm more hyped for Noxus really.

If Kled is the Noxian Yordle, he's definitely going to be the first lighthearted Noxian we have (Draven isn't light hearted - just arrogant), and I'm eager to see how he fits into things. I can foresee Kled being the nemesis of Poppy though, if not oddly infatuated with her, akin to a Yordle version of Garen and Katarina. I also see him being entranced by the Void creatures, namely Kog'Maw, as well as all the other beasts like Tibbers, Gnar, Volibear, and Rengar.

To be fair, Noxus does have a war-hungry zombie king. I can't imagine that much good there...

Riot paints the fight of Noxus V.S Demacia too black and white. This would be awesome.

positivity is all relative to me demacia looks like a dictatorship emposeing their ideals on others and other countries

Their's is an extreme form of meritocracy, but its fair. Heck even Darius , who you think only believes in martial prowess, is willing to follow and support Swain because he legitimately recognizes the General's intelligence and leadership qualities.

That honestly makes me think there's more depth of character to Darius compared to his Demacian counterpart Garen , who really does seem to be the cliche strong-guy who follows his warrior prince because the latter is royalty and that makes him better.

But yeah, Noxus' main positive quality is that belief that both brains and brawn are valued, and that one can fight his way for a better position regardless of birth. Though that kind of thinking also led them to be fairly amoral considering the necromancy bit but hey, I don't expect Noxus to be all sunshine and rainbows.

The only worry I have if it turns out to be a beast thing for Noxus is that I've always had Noxus as a human supremacist sort of faction in my head canon, all about defending humans and humans alone :P
