Will Poppy and Taric have a related Lore when they are updated?

IMO they are very similar champions in terms of character aspect. Both being shield wielding, father centered, hammer smashing, walking buffs (Granted poppy just has crazy buffs for herself) I was wondering if they were to have anything in their lore saying that they probably went to the same school of arms or are rivals in the hammer smashing department.

Not having a story with the two having fathers being good friends or bitter rivals over who can make and managed the best armor and weapons would be a miss in this rework.

Along with Taric might being close to Poppy I was wondering if anything would be done with him and Skarner . Before it kind of seemed like Taric's power came from Skarner's people, seeing how he drew power from the Earth with these gems that reminded everyone of the Scorpion king.

Also another edge in Poppy's lore is her tie to Galio . In a sense she's the only reason he might even be in Demacia during this time or anytime.

I think it would make for a fantastic rival with Poppy and Taric both being Hammer Knights along with Galio and Skarner being their stone faced allies.

It's just an idea and if anyone wants it, take it. I can't do anything with it. By fanfic or lore writer I think it would be a powerful story to tell.

Wish they had, they kinda similar in their Paladin-ish kinda look. Would also like some Taric ties with LeBlanc, Aatrox, Skarner, Galio, Ryze, Noxians, Demacians.

Do you mean direct lines or succession? It would make for some crazy talks hearing Taric being apart of the Black Rose, being a Magelord or generally being a friend with Ryze. In most of his lore talks he was kind of a prick.

I thought of him being a Protectorate character, while LeBlanc is a Magelord (Black Rose) one. This will also tie in with Aatroxes lore where he helped one of the sides during a battle.

They will definetly have new lore with their updates. I can Garentee it.

I believe it was IronStylus who said they've pretty much figured what gem magic is in the context of Runeterra and the new canon, so there'll likely be some info on that, and Poppy being an ambassador between the Yordles of Bandle City and the Kingdom of Demacia will likely mean we'll get some further context as to that relationship and how those two places are geographically placed in context of one another.

Poppy only has 1 buff for herself though?

Q is an Auto attack buff, W and is tanky/utility buff and her ult buffs the damage she does to the person it's on.

But her q is an auto attack enhancer. It isn't really the same thing as taric giving stats to other players.

That's why I put parentheses

"walking buffs (Granted poppy just has crazy buffs for herself)"

An enhancement is just another way of saying buff. Isn't it?

The Soulforged1 votes

Well buff usually refers to increased stats, while her q is simply extra dmg on her next aa. It isn't really an increase or buff of any of her stats. Her w however is quite the example of a buff.

But it does buff her damage stats even if for 1 auto attack per cooldown.
