I genuinely wish [Redacted] had a better lore, she could’ve been so interesting and a way to move Skarner’s story forward. The idea of a “pop star” that’s actually an environmental activist (or maybe ecoterrorist, we don’t judge here) is RIGHT THERE!

I also like the design from beesauce(?) a lot. The simple yellow moons drawn like something in a kids book, the scarf, the deep blue and grey underneath as well as the rather tame hairstyle, i.e. the ponytail give her an element of innocence and down-to-earthness(i dont know how to convey this properly) i would associate with adolescent climate activists (a look which the poncho-like clothing piece supports). As contrast elements of the piltovan popstar are also there, the pink hair, the earpiece and the neon blue on the inside of the jacket, or maybe its a cape idk. I just really like this design, even if im too dyslexic to portray it coherently

I'm so grateful for LoR, not just for the fleshing out of the characters or the gameplay, but handling the designs, especially of older champions. I think while for example Veigar and LB could use great improvements to their designs, LoR really does them justice. Shame they haven't gone more out there with the designs of non-humanoid champs like Anivia and Malphite, though I understand where it's coming from. But my favourite has to be Nautilus, he has been treated so well there! (also Asol as an honourable mention, not because of design tweaks, but because they actually made him just as cool as he was always meant to be) yes I play and love LoR, how could you tell

I still don't get why Redacted should have been a full punk character, that way her skin would have amde more sense as it would have been a different exploration of hte champ rather then the same thing twice, i also just think making her a punk rocker would have made more sense on every level. Punk is often protest singing, Zaun already has a punk scene, and it would have even let her be part of arcane in a fun way like Imagine dragons characters.

Because she was first conceived as K/DA Seraphine. Wonder why her base design is so similar to that skin, there's your answer. And Piltover was the only place in Runeterra they managed to squeeze her into to make it "make sense", but we've seen no efforts to actually make her an interesting character. Just a naive girl in a setting where even that naiveté, which could have potential, isn't explored! She's just a "perfect girl", telling everyone to hold hands until their problems fade away while children are dropping dead right around the corner. Something as interesting as a punk character, a protest singer, a political force that poses a threat to the higher class is just too far off from the "uwu self insert" that we got. And as much as I dislike her, I don't blame her for being the way she is. I blame her writers, the management and whoever else thought any of this was a good idea.

How to solve the Singed problem: Either make him two different characters ô e for the lore that keeps the name Singed but with a new gameplay and one for the old gameplay but with a new 'Amé and gameplay. Or, and this is the best of the two options, put him in a fucking chemtech propulsed wheelchair like a 70 year old tuning grandpa that poison you with his exhaust gaz and cigarette smoke and you rework his ultimate so he use his wheelchairs nitro to move like Sion under his ult but he moves through units and bounces on walls rather than stopping and this last for 30 seconds.

Glad to see someone recognizing the issues with Varus. In his old lore, if I remember properly, he was an Ionian hunter who guarded this tentacle thing in a temple. His village got burned and everyone in it, leading to him taking the very dangerous thing he was supposed to guard (in game, that’s his ultimate). Retconning him into a darkin not only makes his voice lines make no sense, it also makes no sense for him to have the chain of corruption - where did a damn Darkin get it from? I don’t get it, they really made him a whole ass music video and updated his splash art to modernize him a little but then did nothing else for him, he could definitely use an ASU.

I feel like a decent amount of champions don't even need a full visual update and some don't even need an ASU. Theres more than a handful of champions who more than anything just need new voice lines. The number one example I always give is Maokai. Maokai is a rare example of lore changes that don't retconn but instead progress the characters lore. Originally Maokai was just a tree from Twisted Treeline who came to life and was just depressed because he liked it better when he didn't know he was alive and was just a tree. This was reflected in his voice line "I once had peace..." showing he was just sad and wanted to go back to being nothing more than a tree. But now his lore has been updated, where he was just basically a druidic gardener bringing empty islands life with lush blooming forests, until the Ruination took that away from him. And instead of just wanting to go back to his own peaceful tree life, he fights back the undead that corrupted his home and brought him to life in the first place. He's got a fire in his eyes, a passion, something to fight for and protect. And this is reflected in his modern voice lines with (my personal favorite voice line in the game) him saying "I once had peace, it is better to have *purpose!"* (Honestly people talk about how Yorick got done dirty in the Ruination event but Maokai has a very similar purpose of fighting back against Viego's scourge of undead, and I'm surprised nobody brought him up along with Yorick) Something as simple as updating voice lines to match the modern lore of a champion can do wonders for their in game representation. Characters like Lee Sin, Ashe, and especially Maokai have outdated models and older kits, but their aesthetic still holds strong because at least the things they're saying in game are no longer tied to those outdated models, and fit their compelling modern lore. Varus more than anything needs updated voice lines. I completely understand and agree that his model is outdated, he came out like a decade ago. But seeing how Riot tends to prioritize skins and new champions above all else, something as simple as new voice lines could definitely make Varus stand out far more than he currently does.

"I have not watched either one so I have no idea what is and isn't part of the city of Piltover." - Fair, except for the fact that I only mentioned Hextech Mayhem's inventions, which were a big part of the trailers which I find to belive you haven't seen at all. " I'm not sure when you mean when you say (...)" - It was concering your "I might have given her a second chance but that thing just stands out too much from anything Runtarrain". I pointed out all the things that exists canonicly in Runeterra, with the exception of world runes, all of the things I listed were crafted. I was calling you out on the fact that there exists so many things similar to Seraphine's board or at least things that dispute your line about it standing out, since no the fuck it doesn't when you look at all the stuff that exist. "Do you mean that if I accept those other lore facts, I must accept her inclusion to Runeterra?" - No, but I do want to ask you if you accept all the other things in Runeterra if you don't accept Seraphine's board. "I do not believe that her character could appear in this setting organically" - Oh, so like Zed, Annie, Fiddlesticks, Zac, or any of the Void champions? Like it or not, many of the champions when looked at in the void do not fit the world of Runeterra. They have a lore that put them in it, but when looked at them objectivly, you wouldn't think of finding any of those in Runeterra either. "she feels like she was added only because they wanted to sell popstar skins." - Most of the champions are made for the purpose of selling a skin, Seraphine only had her ultimate skin out immediatly because that's the thing that has been teased trough her tweets the entire time. Or would you rather have her fade into obscurity, then after a year or two Riot to release "More" and then the skin, after the twitter account stopped posting, after the hype for new character subsided and when people start to wonder where is K/DA Seprahine when she was teased so much? Because that would be simply a bad financial decision "Also, my dislike for this character isn't influenced by others" - Oh really? I find it hard to belive, but ok. "I have my own personal reasons to despise this character, the board is merely one of them." - This one I'll break into two points based on your original comment: a) "If [Redacted] didn't fly everywhere on a hoverboard, I might have given her a second chance but that thing just stands out too much from anything Runtarrain." - you pointed it out as the thing that stands out too much so it's fair to belive that it's the thing that annoys you a lot about her. b) "It looks rediculous and I find it very hard to believe that something like her entire concept would exist naturally in this world." - Fair, I find a concept of a man being cursed to never die in a fight to be a bit ridiculus... oh shoot, sorry, wrong champion. I mean, I find a concept of a demon trapped in a weapon but also being a weapon dumb... DAMN IT! let me try again... I find a concept of a guy being able to survive inside the cursed isles for all this time, the place who has been known to kill anyone who steps into it, preety ridiculus.... damn... I can't seem to get it right. Almost as if there are so many concepts in runeterra that sound ridiculus when taken at face value, that I keep messing it up... So, in conclusion, my final words are: Don't accept Seraphine because other out of place things exist in Runeterra.... Hate every one of those things equally >:D

I have always had this idea for how Singed is going to turn out: They are going to rework Singed and preserve him as a tank with the high speed and similar identity. Singed's stories and lore are about Singed experimenting about putting another person's mind into a stronger body. I think when Singed gets reworked eventually, they will make it so Singed succeeded, transfusing his genius mind into a larger, bulkier, faster body. This way his lore as a genius scientist and his gameplay as a high-speed tank can both be preserved. We're probably a long way's away from this becoming a reality, and it IS just a theory, but this is how I think Singed is building up to. current singed still garbo get him outta that WoW gear bruh

I really love Nautilus, but man do I hate to play him now. He's still my most played champion but he's now only viable as a support it feels awful. Especially when you considering that there is now an actual support from Bilgewater, who has revenge as their motif, is also undead, who also was betrayed by their captain, became a vengeful spirit of the ocean, and who both drag people in. Actually I'm not sure how many people know this but when Pyke was released Nautilus' lore basically got deleted and replaced with a vague "Many tell stories of Nautilus but no one knows for sure who or what it is" kind of lore until he got it rewritten a few months later. Nautilus really should've just been reworked when Pyke came out because now there are two supports with basically the same lore, from the same place except one was actually designed for the support role. In kind of a double-wammy kind of deal I feel like Nautilus should be more a of tanky/disruptor style of AP Juggernaut, playing sort of like Mordekaiser but with more tankiness and a bit less damage, while also changing Mordekaiser back to a more tanky/battlemage style of champion since he kind of doesn't work a lot of the time and when he does he's just a stat stick, Plus also because Mordekaiser never really was much of a Juggernaut until the 2019 rework where Riot decided he was solely gonna be a Juggernaut.

They should do an ao kuang with singed: In smite (the Moba) there was this character Ao Kuang who was a giant dragon. The thing is that it was supposed to be a Chinese god, but felt super memey and stupid to look at in dragon form, but had a decent kit of abilities. So what hi rez (the creators of the game) did was create a new dragon looking Quetzalcoatl boi to have og Ao Kuang s kit, and then Design a completely new katana wielder Dragon god to be the new reworked Ao Kuang. I loved that.

i think a good singed can be done, but it'd involve essentially deleting current singed, as his race car mach 5 mustard gas trail play style doesn't match the cold calculating chemist we've seen. he gassed a war from a distance because it would end it faster, he didn't go running to the front line and tank 37 arrows to sonic his way around it.

I think the point about viktor is a good one. With the release of arcane and it showing Viktor before he became who he is right more, I think it would be really great if we saw a refinement or rework of his models to reflect on what we saw in arcane, maybe with season 2 where we will probably see in more depth about the journey he took to turn into the machine herald.

Pretty sure the reason why varus looks the way he is (purple instead of red) is cause he uses hemomancy (blood magic) not the same way the other darkin uses it (healing themselves) but instead he blights enemies blood (his W passive blight) which would make sense according to the theory that the 5 darkin are based on the four horsemen of the apocalypse with varus and his sister being pestilence and conquest.

Singed could be updated as an in lore explaination like with Pantheon or Gangplank. Where he is found by the people of zaun for his awful experiments and people start coming after his ass because of the horrible things hes done. Singed turns to viktor in his hour of need as Singed has spent too much time in Zaun that hes lost favor with Piltover, and Viktor removes his arms and legs and replaces them with prosthetics due to singed's old age making him frail. With viktors help they construct a small mechanized suit which singed can wear whenever he is in danger, with the in game explaination for his Q being a method of slowing or killing his pursuers. Maybe Viktor didn't approve of it directly or maybe he doesn't care. Details could be worked out later, but you could still create a reason for why singed plays like he does. Mans literally wants to keep being an evil mad scientist in Zaun but his moral failures have caught up to him and he now spends his life running from vigilantes and the law.

I have a solution for Singe that can keep the lore and gameplay version of him intact : The idea is to have Singe on top of a monster or sitting in a robot like dr.robotnik. That way we can have the model of a lore fitting Singe and keep his gameplay. He could throw his bottles while his monster/robot would dispense the toxic gas and charge at foes to knock them behind him. What do you think about that?

You know what would’ve been cool? If they spun nautilus to be from piltover instead of bilgwater. The tilth is neat but a faction interaction between piltover, zaun, and the shadow isle would’ve been interesting to explore. A man from piltover goes on a diving expedition, equipped with the latest I. Hextech diving equipment, his superiors take a greedy deal from some Chem baron and he goes under during the harrowing. His hextech keeps him alive, but only just- as the mist below the waves consumes him. The piltover bosses deny they were ever there and they cut him off- but nautilus remembers, and he’s on a mission to make the greedy high ups pay for literal burial at sea. His diving suit could be made more corrupted, with some semblance of fancy fancy piltover aesthetics, broken tanks of oxygen, the algae growing in and out of his cracked face plate, and an ever thumping wet trudge as he drags his anchor across the floor, every swing laboured but full of anger, and corrupted hextech that pulses out black mist. Instead of his random torpedo thing, his ult could pull under instead of knock up, a speeding tendril of mist that literally pulls you to the depths. A ghostly titan that creaks and buckles like a derelict ship, and Erie haunting ghostly voices- from what sounds like a broken communicator. How fucking sick would that be

The only way I could see lore singed be in game and not jeopardize in game singed is if they made him a shapeshifter . One version being him running around, poison trail behind him and flipping people like we're used to The other one being a mad scientist throwing concotions at your face while buffing or healing himself and his allies with them. Maybe they could balance it by making him able to change only in fountain (as if he gear up for race car singed and equips potions for alchemist singed) or make him able to swap to which style on the spot (like nida, jayce, elise,etc...) because singed has more identity in his spells than ult.

I think it would work, if they'd split Singed. Like, give us a new champion which follows gameplay- and designwise the crazy, old scientist Singed and rework the old Singed into some other, new character, which speeds around with a poison trail and flings people. Don't know how you would change the name problem, cause that would be hella confusing at first and because his identity is so iconic, but that would be Riot's concern lol. You get the idea.

I think that they should change singed entirely and release a new champ with the same function, because a character that leaves a trail of poison, throw sticky thing to the group, lift you 3 feet into the air and boost himself is not a scientist but a monster, perhaps the guy we saw in arcane or another zaunite creature could fit the part but there's no way that the scientist make the part of the Monster unless you have some sort of Jekyll and Hyde scenario

Imo they should put singed in a turbo chemtank in game then he can somewhat keep his gameplay but still have a reason for him to receive a asu/vgu, The turbo chemtank would give him a reason to be fast, and you can just say "well he's a scientist 🧚" for his poison trails or even make it so his chemtank is broken and the chemicals are leaking, same with the flip, we know turbo chemtank gives people enhanced strength so it'd be pretty easy to justify him being inside one, while keeping in lore singed out of one Also having a ""mech suit"" character would be sick af
