Tell me about the shopkeepers

Why two different shopkeepers? Who are they? Are they summoners or just freelance agents? Ex-champions/People who failed the application process? Do they know anyone or have ties? TELL MEEEEEEE

I know this may seem weird, but what if the shop keepers were actually able to give good advice as the game progresses. Like if you are having trouble in a lane, and the system can see that, then maybe the shop keep will give a suggestion to an item that may help, or give an objective.

I don't know, just something interactive like that =)

Riot thinks lore is overrated. They even said i themselves XD away

They don't think lore is overrated actually. If anything they've been really going above-and-beyond when it comes to teasing new champions and more.

One of the reasons I love LoL more than other mobas. The lore :).

Will Riot be changing the names of the Doran's items since the shopkeeper as of now is named Doran, and he is being replaced?

The shopkeeper isn't actually Doran. Doran was the league's blacksmith who was handicapped, and now only makes simple items.

Check here for his lore: http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Doran

Is it sad that this is one of the things I'm most excited about?

Bless the current yordle salesman's little soul, but I love that they are giving the shopkeepers personality. I loved what they did with HA and I'm pretty sure they're taking that to the next level with this SR update.

I know one side (blue I believe?) has a yordle girl shopkeeper. That's all I know.

I heard that the red side's shopkeeper is Urf the manatee's uncle. Not sure who the blue side shopkeeper is but i think that the animal he is sitting on is the goat from the current summoners rift, but all grown up

Where the heck is riot to answer these questions. I want my knowledge fix! I havent found a question they have actually answered in this discussion.

The human shopkeeper on Howling Abyss, I think is related to Ezreal. When I played him, I think he said "...a real job, nephew. Come work at the dig site with me!"

or something along those lines

I know all about the Howling Abyss shopkeepers. I wanna know about the SR ones.
