the new level 1 ( LoR ) morgana with traveller clothes, practical leather and actual light armour tie her perfectly to her mortal side. the level 2 card art is giving kai'sa and kayle bodysuit flashbacks. what are your thoughts?

I'm holding off on the LoR cards to do some big streams reviewing all the ones I've missed but, yeah, the lvl 1 really IS hitting a lot of great notes for her. The lvl 2 is more conservative, hewing closer to her LoL look, which... is understandable, I guess?

Srsly though the concept art for her Level 1 is so fucking good holy shit look at that Veiled motherfucking Lady right there!!!

Queer League of Legends Champions (with explanations) – Part I

Confirmed Lesbians – Neeko, Leona, Diana, Caitlyn, Vi

Starting off with probably the most known LGBTQ+ characters of Riot, we have Neeko, Leona, Diana, Caitlyn, and Vi, all canon lesbians. Neeko's sexuality was a big deal when first announced, not only because she was the first canon queer champion of League but also because her sexuality is explicitly portrayed through her voice lines, as she often flirts with female champions and shows a disinterest in the Shoo'ma of men she shapeshifts into. 

A number of different Rioters have confirmed that Leona and Diana were always meant to be lovers, but someone at Riot Management decided against it, and so they were portrayed as almost sisterly in the old lore. Fast-forward to the present day, they are gay and LOUD about it! The Rise With Me short story officially canonized the couple, and official pride art showed both of them with the lesbian flag. 

Caitlyn and Vi were already a popular ship before their romantic interest in one another became explicit, as shown in Arcane, Legends of Runeterra, and more subtly in the Warriors cinematic. They have also been shown in official pride art holding or wearing the lesbian flag, and they even share a Valentine's Day skin. It's worth adding that Vi also shares another romance-themed skin line with Fiora, and they seem to be very good friends there, but we'll get into that later.

Confirmed Gays – K'Sante, Graves, Aphelios

K'Sante's sexuality, like Neeko's, has been an important part of his character since release. His cinematic and color story both mention Tope, his past male lover, and he was the face of League Pride 2023 alongside Vi.

Graves and Twisted Fate were reportedly, like Diana and Leona, meant to be lovers from day one, but Riot didn't like that (how novel) and scratched that part of their story, simply leaving them as crime partners, nothing else. Burning Tides and Destiny and Fate have been amazing at developing their relationship, but the real confirmation comes with The Boys and Bombolini, which officially confirmed Graves as gay and T.F. as being attracted to him. 

Lastly, we have Aphelios. He and Sett have been a popular ship since the Spirit Blossom release, a skin line that makes them boyfriends, which already confirms him as queer. Throughout this year, Riot has been reposting and sharing Settphel art, which doesn't necessarily mean anything, but what really grabs attention is that they also shared fanart of Aphelios with the toothpaste gay flag, leading me to classify him as such.

Confirmed Bisexuals – Nami, Rell, Sett

Nami surprised pretty much everyone when her addition to Legends of Runeterra confirmed her as polyamorous, being in a relationship with Loto and Tama, other Marai of her tribe. One of the people who worked on her character explicitly highlighted the relationship and affirmed that Nami was pansexual. Since then, Riot has promoted her (through official pride art and LoR emotes) as bisexual. It's a bit unclear how she should be labeled, but one thing is sure: she's queer.

Rell is another champion whose queerness was stated on her debut. Rell had flirtatious lines with both men and women in League and was explicitly labeled as bisexual by her creators, also being confirmed through official pride art.

Finally, there's Sett. People have been speculating on his sexuality for a while, but things changed when Spirit Blossom came along, and he was portrayed as Aphelios' boyfriend. Since then, Sett has been seen in reposted League fanart with the bi flag.

I cannot stress how happy I am that in Legends of Runeterra, Vex' story is that she gets a birthday party invite and then has a vivid nightmare about yordles trying to force her to Have Fun.

She got shafted so hard by the Ruination, which basically just treated her as tonally incoherent comic relief and accidentally(?) made her party to an attempted genocide. It was bad. I want Vex to have adventures sneering at Normie Shit and trying to dodge constant attempts by Lulu to cheer her up with shenanigans. I want her to get to be a gloomy teen yordle, instead of a baffling accessory to Kevin McWifeguy's Tantrum Theater.

Making Arcane "canon" is a bad idea, and probably not actually possible

In the aftermath of Arcane's success, Riot has decided that one of the biggest problems with their storytelling and lore is that it's internally inconsistent, and that popular stories like Arcane are not technically "canon" with the rest of the universe. They propose to solve this by making Arcane canon, and streamlining the rest of the universe around it.

Just one small problem: the premise of Arcane is that magic is rare, it's a fairly low-magic setting, and Runeterra is an ultra-high magic setting absolutely sprawling with mages, artifacts, magic landscapes and entire magic continents. These universes cannot be reconciled without introducing major problems to one or both of them, to their inevitable detriment.

Much more importantly: League of Legends' lore and worldbuilding problems are far, far more systemic and deeper than merely "it is a bit confusing that the in-game champions aren't like the Arcane characters," and trying to solve it by streamlining everything is entirely misdiagnosing the problem.

Let's discuss.
