With the release of new VGUs , overhaul of regions, possible new regions and new characters, lore is playing a big part in the league universe. With what we've seen from all the overhauled regions, each has its own plot that it follows and what happens during the story can sometimes alter champions. with gankplank going from http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/3/38/Gangplank_CaptainSkin.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/320?cb=20160518020135 to http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/8/80/Gangplank_OriginalSkin.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/320?cb=20160518165402 the new stories sometimes get new skins of before and after the events of the lore or even events pre-existioning from current events like http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/f/ff/Twisted_Fate_OriginalSkin.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/320?cb=20160518203714 & http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/9/9b/Graves_OriginalSkin.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/320?cb=20160519040346 was once http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/9/9e/Twisted_Fate_CutpurseSkin.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/320?cb=20160522030818 . there are still some regions that need update and more could be added , so the current plots of the updated regions wont be touched for a while, but when they are we can expect to see new skins for champions during the event or even champions going through a vgu that links with the new story. Nevertheless we can only speculate and speculate i shall on new looks or skins that may come once we get further along in the story of these regions

first I'll cover champions of updated regions or new vgu and the plots that may arise once all regions have been updated and how they may effect how the champion may look

Piltover: tensions with zaun and looming invasion Camille: full cybernetics or a chance at whole body Jayce: disillusioned hero

Zaun: tentions with piltover, violent move of the glorious revolution Warwick : the beast takes over or the man comes forth Viktor: full robotics or new leader of revolution

Shadow isles: transcendence through restoration or corruption of blackmist Kalista: spirit of justice Hecarim: lord of war Mordekaiser: dark host of the black mist Karthus: voice of death Lucian: aimless wanderer seeking purpose after freeing wife or new guardian of life and the blessed isles Yorick ; steward of life

Mount taragon: uniting the tribes and beginning of the lunari Leona; unitor of the mountain clans Diana ; new matriarch of a restored lunari

Shurima: clash of emperors and the new dawn Azir; guardian of the empire or its ruler Renekton; free of madness Sivir ; ascended new empress or restorer of fallen ascended Taliyah; ascended priestess of the weaver Nasus; steward of the empire

Bilgewater: battle of captains MissFortune; leader of the bilgewater union Illaoi; vessel of the god Gangplank; king of pirates

And here are champions whose regions haven't been updated but exploring possible plots
Darius; new grand general of noxus Karma : empress of ionia JarvanIV ; king of demacia Garen&Katarina should they choose duty; general of demacian army and mistress of assassins respectively love: exiled wanted fugitives Riven: redeemed and returned to lead noxus to honor Shyvana; voice of the dragons Syndra: leader of the crime and dark organisations of ionia Sejuani Ashe &Lissandra ; general, queen and weakened but scheming sorceress if the end of the civil war goes optimistically Yasuo : the truth revealed and a new elder of the council

the other champions i got nothing for but feel free to add of you got a vision on an altered look for champions i didn't mention or the ones i have and a post on before skins latter

A few of those ideas don't fit the champion tbh. Yasuo wouldn't want to be, nor would it make sense for him to become an elder of the council. Yasuo isn't humble or extremely wise or something.

Syndra doesn't give a shit about crime or the mafia. She wants to exercise and improve her power.

Karma doesn't necesarily want to be the Empress. I don't even understand how she could reach such status.

Taliyah would not want to be an Ascended. From my knowledge, she doesn't want to live to see her family die. She wants to remain human. And she would want to pass through the natural cycle of life.

Renekton is pretty much unredeemable from my understanding. Seeing a Redeemed Renekton would be cool, but it wouldn't make too much sense to be part of the lore.

Overall, these changes go too far. The story should progress, but I don't want to see an augmented human like Camille go full robot. And your ideas for the Freljord basically were: Make Lissandra weaker, and the "good" guys stronger. Look at any Lore Update and you see that they enhanced and improved the character, the didn't change the character. Atleast no in massive ways.

Sure VGU's have large lore changes, but in someone like Yorick who got new lore, he didn't suddenly become another evil Shadow Isles champion who is 1/2 ghoul and 1/2 demon.
