First of all, I would like to compliment Riot on a perfect launch of the new Runeterra map. Its truly beautiful, and its in the visual and interactive format I always wanted to see for this world. Cant wait to see more projects Riot comes up for it in the future (and some other projects like the Timeline ;) )

But the issues that bug me are emphasized with the return of certain icons and inclusion of new icons for the in-game Runeterra Map missions. Every older Faction icon return as obtainable icons (which is awesome, I know some friends that really like to get icons like Piltover or Noxus but missed them initially so this is just amazing for them), but why isnt the Void icon included as well? Is it because it can also work/categorized as a Race icon similar to the recent Darkin icon? https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/7/7b/Void_profileicon.png/revision/latest?cb=20180221204437

Also why didnt Bandle City get its own Icon made and included as an obtainable icon through missions? https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/6/68/Bandle_City_Crest.png/revision/latest?cb=20180724185419 The Amazing Runeterra map included this new Crest For Bandle City and it looks so good not to make an summoner icon for it.

Also Could you update the Universe faction site so that it incorporates these new colored crests for Bandle City and Void that are introduced in the Runeterra map? https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/c/cb/Void_Crest.png/revision/latest?cb=20180724201159

Thank you so much Riot for your time, hopefully you reconsider some of my suggestions, or at least answer some of these conundrums that were missed in this recent massive Lore Update.

We simply have not yet had a Bandle City update.

It will become an icon when the region finally gets a lore update.

Hi there! For the re-released icons, we wanted to stick to the regions that were represented on the map. A void incursion is showed in Icathia of course, but since it is not a region it felt more cohesive to leave it off of the collection for Runeterra. That's not to say it won't make a return in the future. For Bandle City... well... lets just say that I am a big proponent of seeing it become a summoner icon and I imagine it will be when the timing is right ;)

They are most likely not included because they aren't real places on the map,they are other dimensions and thus not real factions of the world.
