At what point should we even hope for Kayle/Morgana lore updates?

darkdill·Sep 28, 2014·6 votes·3,301 views

I know a lot of people are afraid that Kayle and Morgana will get their characters ruined if they are given lore retcons, but I for one am more interested as to when to expect such a thing. Presently, we are at the point where we can assume it might be a big fat "NEVER".

Between looking at Morgana's extremely outdated model and listening to her extremely outdated VO lines, I'd like for our Fallen Angel to see changes in the future. Preferably the near future.

Can we get some insight on this? Or is it "too soon"?

Awesome Kayle/Morgana art to pass you guys by.

I think Morgana is going to get a VU at some point and she'll probably gets a lore-retcon at that time(and kayle probably too to go along with it).

I've read that they think about splitting morganas skirt,but I hope that does not happen. I mean sure,you can do lots of things with a split skirt,but there are some things that can be done only with a skirt that is not splitted too. And seeing how Morgana is basically the only champ who has a skirt like this,it would kinda decrease the variety(ok there is also sona,but it is still a bit different and she floats so she doesn't count :P)

The thing is, a full skirt would be kinda hard to fight in. Don't you agree?

yeah,but if nami can move around freely without any feet,then I suppose that Morgana could move around with a skirt.

She's floating though.

Overall the thing is,that an outfit doesn't always need to be practical in a game like this.

Yeah nami was a bad example,but look at Sona,her clothes seem to hang on her with the power of duct tape or something like that. They could easily slip,if she isn't careful when moving around. Heck even some male characters have impractical outfits,just look at garens shoulders,they are so big,that they can't be practical in any way.

And Morgana is always more of a sturdy mage,so her not running around in something that allows easy movement would be ok in my opinion.

But anyway while I'd like them to keep her skirt,I think I would survive it if they changed it,literally anything would probably look better than current morgana with her green skin and paper wings.

People are worrying more about Morgana's skirt and less about the fact that she's only wearing a metal bra for her top?

I can't imagine how many wardrobe malfunctions Morgana and Sona have. XD

I am worrying about her losing the skirt,but I am hoping they get rid of the metal bra(a traditional skin would be nice though).

The thing I would actually like the most would be to give her one big elegant dark dress,similar to what she has in many skins. A bit like Lulu from FFX(but more functional,because otherwise she is going to have more wardrobe malfunctions than anyone else xD)

I'd argue that skirts in general, high heels, and being half-naked in general is hard to fight in.

Don't worry, they're getting lore changes next year in the Bilgewater event, where they're retconned to being pirates with bird themes.

The problem with their lore is that they're tied to the League. The summoners and IoW are why they're in Runeterra.

With Victorious Morgana coming out, she probably will be getting something soon. At least IMO.

Getting a new skin usually means nothing is in the pipeline,

Ironstylus seemed to want them to get reworked as a pair so they are probably low on the ladder,

I used to think this was the case as well, where a Champ getting a new skin meant there would be no visual update soon after, but then Steel Legion Garen happened and 8 months later (it sounds like a long time after but it felt much much sooner) his visual update. So, Morgana could get a VU as soon as early next year, especially with the skins team and the champion update team being two separate entities now.

Well yeah, But 8 months is still a decent amount of time, I mean not to excpect it to be next in the pipeline,

I think their lore is fine the way it is. Morg though probably won't be looked at till they get her VU, since she could use a bit of a touch up there.
