To me, Swain and LeBlanc in the old-lore definitely had a kind of relationship which maybe could have been romantic. It was definitely the most interesting and developed relationship that was going on in the old Journal of Justice.

But I didn't quite expect THIS level of 'interaction' with the rework. It's...very much appreciated!

I am REALLY looking forward to reading the rework bios/stories, and knowing the details of their relationship. Hoping it'll be how I imagine it is from the lines, no crushed dreams plox!

I am also hoping it's not just Swain who will get the updated story though. Will LeBlanc and the other Noxus champs get some too?

Especially Vladimir. It's too bad one of his lines had to be cut to fit in one more line for Swain with LeBlanc but...sacrifices had to be made :D

What could be more romantic than the love of your life trying to kill you every now and again?

If it turns out they are maintaining the previous lore of them having cooperated on usurping darkwill and reviving Sion....then this would likely be EXACTLY what my head cannon was.

The two worked together towards their common goals of removing darkwill...but now that the goal is achieved they alone are the two power players in Noxus....and there can only be room for one

They plot against each other, work to subtly undermine each other, but not at the expense of Noxus as a whole, and not out of personal disdain for each other....but because as long as the other has real power they cant 100% claim all of Noxus.

I imagine them now as the two rivals who might still be found enjoying a lunch together during the afternoon, making light jabs at each others plots.

We got the noxus icon on the pbe and the last big story events were all accompanied by a faction icon,so I think we can safely assume that we'll get a noxus update(also I think some rioters also hinted at this already).

Though judging from Swains quotes it does sound like he is on bad terms with leblanc,but who knows what past they had.

Will we get some more new champs, or at least one, that is also a member of the BlackRose?
