I think it's about time for another "real time" lore event

Past Examples: The Ionian War. The sinking of the Dead Pool and the near-death of GP.

Proposals: Mordekaiser's assault on the Immortal Bastion. A large scale Void invasion. Total war between Demacia and Noxus.

That kind of event is just really fun; it's cool to see the story developing around you.

Proposal: The uprising of Zaun into Piltover?

The return of Gankplank.

Whatever the heck Zed was planning in the latest cinematic.

I was thinking, what if Zed is everyone's best defense against the black mist. The mist is souls magicly bound to the to the isles because of the craziness that went on there. With Rakan and Xaya's lore we learned that Zed can contain magic and maybe even souls (based on the threat Zed's acolyte gave Xaya). He also can contain magic on a large scale as we saw with the forest. He also clearly would like to save innocent people (or Ionians at least) as we saw in Jhin's story and probably would like the extra power.

Could be interesting.

I'd rather the void invasion come later though tbh. Would prefer a void introductory, and then a separate event where it's the full on invasion or whatever is being planned.

I think it'd be cool if we got stories of void infiltrators in runeterra causing havoc, Mt. Targon in-fighting ignoring the impending threat, ASol laughing, then the full invasion heralded (not really 'led) by Malz.

i would want a really good lore event with a new login, new stories, and a game mode that complements the stories followed by a new champion release that deals in the stories

Yea I'd rather wait for an amazing full blown event then get a rushed one. With the 6 or 7 confirmed character VGU's I imagine it is going to be quite some time though. Riot has soooo many things going on at once(Confirmed new characters being worked on, VGU's, Lore, Client, Gameplay updates, Summer split about to start leading to world's and all that has to go into that, etc. etc.) it's kind of hard to get a real timeline for when something like this is even plausible.

I'd like to see Noxus invade Piltover.

While events like these are cool,I'd like it more if they focused on updating lores first,before doing stuff like this. Because an event like this will delay the other lore updates even further.

Honestly id love it. Take play stats to move lore forward. Want to see noxius come out on top? Play their list of champions. There is a fan group that does this called factions. Google league of legends factions To find

This is cool. Even something kinda like For Honor where you just choose which faction you were supporting and all of your wins contributes to that region. They could do stuff like give everyone a Summoner Icon for whichever Faction won or whoever that player supported most. I bet an interactive event like that would be really really hard to do from a narration perspective though, because the outcome can be any faction and the course of the event will be unpredictable you are kind of limited to material. If they did do something like this maybe they could have something like the first faction to get to so many points triggers the next event or the faction with the least points after so long drops out and then there is just a story driven final battle, but no matter how they would do it or how cool it would be that would still be really really hard for the writers and probably take a whole lot of time and resources to pull off. Doesn't mean I don't have my fingers crossed in the meantime though!

And maybe in the future I would love to see some real action Aurelion Sol related stuff. <3

Well they have built up a story line with Aur Sol it just hasn't happened yet! With Pantheon being summoned and all though something has to be hopefully is around the corner!

Its too soon for that they havent really set the groundlines for their new lore yet, basically all the countries havent been introduced yet we're still missing:
Noxus hopefully they arent seen as the bad guys because they really arent but i trust riot on that one, Ionia iirc, The Void place, the jungle where Nidalee is from, Bandle City and the people who arent tied down to a place ie Bard) so after all that then they should start placing connections between all the different places hopefully they get rid of that kat and garen ship but sadly it prob wont go

Know what else would be cool? The game is slowly setting up a Resistence among the Shadow Isles. We now have Maokai and Yorick willing to fight to gain the land back. Kalista may also be able to jump on in.

Granted, neither of them need major touching up, but maybe one day...

As someone who started playing a couple of months ago and have never been apart of one of these events I would absolutely love for one to happen soon. I've read up on everything that happened during all the Bilgewater stuff and its all so cool.

Hold up, they need to do a lore event the Ionian war still. The old lore is almost 10 years old now and has been retconned.

I dont think that there has to be another Bilgewater event, or anything related to a champions from it. One was enough.

So yes, give us a full scale Noxus and Demacia war. Let us see Lux committing a mass genocide with a lazor :D
