@Anyone-from-Riots-Narrative-Team - Yordle lore, and Rumble's Character
Since we've got some discussion about a new Race being officially introduced, I thought I might try to throw out some Riot bait to discuss League's OTHER non-human race: The Yordles.
For this thread specifically, I'd like to talk about their interaction with humans. It seems like things have shifted from "Yordles are just another race, maybe kind of rare, but wouldn't be terribly odd to see one on the street or in the news". Now it seems more like "Yordles are the magical, hidden society to human muggles."
Because of this shift in the relationship between them, me and my Rumble-main friend are a bit worried about the Mechanized Menace's character. A fairly big chunk of Rumble's character is based on the interaction between humans and yordles. Namely, that Rumble feels yordles are unappreciated and looked down upon compared to humans, despite the numerous achievements they've offered.
I guess I'd just like to get a confirmation on if this aspect of Rumble's character is going to be preserved in some way, or at least translated to make it fit with the new lore direction. I know he's not a very popular character, so when/if he gets a visual update in the far future, I'd like to feel a bit assured that some distinct parts of his current character gets preserved. I wouldn't want him come out being a completely different character just because you wanted to try something new story-wise with a relatively unpopular character.
