You KILLED Zac's parents?!

I'm all for tweaking League Lore. You guys did a sweet job with Yorick and Mordekaiser. But you went from my favorite flubber champion having a supportive family with a voice so smooth it makes Tahm Kench jealous, to BATMAN.

It's wholly unnecessary and kind of drastic. There are so many champion with dark pasts that fit and could tell this story better. But... zac is a gentlemen blob. Who actually mentions how proper his upbringing was. He talks about his Mom for Sol's sake. His original story was how he SAVED his parents. Not 'was out sniffing the flowers when the big meanies came.'

I was gonna write something a lot more toxic, but I hope this gets to someone important instead. Let someone else be batman, let zac be Superman.

P.S. And no. NOT ZAC SNYDER'S.

He's the blob Zaun needs, not the blob it deserves. He's Zacman.

I think it's not that good that League is turning all grimdark. I mean, sure, pain builds character, but we don't need every champion in the League suffer from one misfortune to another. However, from what we know so far these things are kind of given in Zaun, so I don't know. My point stands though.

Zac's old lore was fine as it was IMO. I don't want to bash the writing too much, but offing his parents comes off as uninspired to me. It is so overused, we've seen a lot of parents dying to the point that it makes me want to say "That's good sweetheart, but suck it up already."

And off topic, I don't think they did a sweet job with Mordekaiser.
