I'm really curious as to which champions will get a new lore after the Shurima and Mount Targon factions are done.

If Ionia is next: and

If Demacia is next: and

If Bandle City is next: and

If Noxus is next: and

If Pitlover is next: and

If Freljord is next: and

If Zaun is next: and

If the Void is next: and

If any other location comes next: and a bunch of others

Let me know what you guys think

Really I'd like us to see Bandal City after Targon. Yordles are one of Riots "original" races, so I would like to see where they can expand on them from culture, biology, and technology. We can already guess that Yordles are somewhat advanced ( Heimerdinger Ziggs Rumble Tristana are examples of technological advances in Yordles...even if Trist is only using a gun).

Teemo /~~Satan~~ showcases that (and he may be retconned but screw it) Yordles do get involved in battles with other nations, or at least they have outside confrontations. His knowledge of plants (the mushrooms) makes him very terrifying.

Actually that brings up an interesting point. Each Yordle so far seems to have an innate curiosity towards something and is incredibly skilled in that regard.

Teemo : Natural warfare, guerrilla tactics. Heimerdinger : Scientific advancement and curiosity. Rumble : Is a Douchebag, but is able to create a working mech suit out of (what appears to be) junk. He's a Yordle supremacist on top of his mechanical ability so we get some cultural tension. : Tactical explosives and demolitions expert. Ziggs : Basically the professor of explosions. He makes Tristana's explosives, she's just tactical in their use. Really I need to learn more about their lore. Lulu : ALL THE CURIOSITY Poppy : Is getting a lore rework. Veigar : Intense obsession with dark magic.

Yordles could have an extremely passionate culture. A true Yordle might be one who finds a goal and advances beyond belief in that goal.

That's just what I think. Expanding the Yordles would be interesting, but it's more than likely we'll get something from Ionia after Mt.Targon's expansion. I'm just glad Mt. Targon is a higher priority than Ionia, I'm honestly a little bored of Ionia.

I vote Piltover/Zaun (you can't have one without the other). Some of the most interesting champions (lore wise) are from those regions, and it would be awesome to finally get some info on how they're all connected

I personally would go with Ionia/Demacia

I'd argue that the nations that need it most right now are Piltover, Zaun, Bandle City (and Yordles as a whole) and Ionia. We've always had a solid basis for what Demacia and Noxus are, Freljord, Shurima, Bilgewater and the Shadow Isles are pretty well defined at this point, I feel like the last three Void champions have given us some degree of understanding the Void's mystery, and Targon's soon, which leaves these places.

Ionia's somewhere that I feel needs love because it's always just been Runeterra's asia, and lacks proper definition or a cultural identity in the world beyond the "Spiritualism and peace" angle.

Bandle City is...somewhere in Runeterra, and the Yordles exist in some capacity, but how that works for this new Runeterra's still up for debate.

Piltover and Zaun are the science cities but we've only really had a solid look at Zaun thanks to Ekko, and that's just the slums. Both areas could use some defining imo.

I'd say bandle city would be a good choice.

Some people complained about bilgewater and shadow isles having been too dark,so following up with something lighter and i kinda doubt that mt.targon or shurima will be very light.

I would want a Ionia or Void event with lore updates, that would be awesome.

They'll probably do Shurima again Kappa

Gragas is fine. His lore doesn't really tie into the League. And he's fun. I don't want my fave champ getting all grimdark.
