League of Loreheads

The Empress of the Void certainly has more lore than most void champs get, although it does seem like Riot keeps turning around, not knowing what to do with such a massive threat that was planted well over a decade ago. Bel'Veth eats cities and floats around in The Upside Down, and that's fun, but I sure hope she invited Kog'Maw because what's that little pup been up to?   ------   Twitter! twitte...

Listener beware, you're in for a fair...bit of rhyming things with Nocturne. Since the nightmare demon's lore isn't super in-depth (what a shock-turne), we turn back the clock-turne to find some fun older stories, and come up with skin ideas that, frankly, would rock-turne.  We may have gotten a bit silly, but we hope you won't mock-turne. Not to mention, if he was a chef, the eternal nightmare mi...

Settle in for a long one fellow lore-friends, there's a lot to dig into here! Annie's release in Legends of Runeterra provides an opportunity to right past wrongs and go through impressions and her AUs. After that, we spend a hefty amount of time gushing over Graves and Twisted Fate's latest piece, while craving donuts and savoring John's British-Cajun fusion. Finally, Kai'Sa has gotten some much...

It is quite appropriate that Nidalee's lore has her abandoned in the jungle, given how Riot has left her lore abandoned as well. Without a strong set of stories or a vibrant in-game character, Nidalee feels like she needs some major work to get her up to snuff. To make matters worse, any hopes of finding solace in the Journal of Justice have been drowned out by Riot's one-track mind when it comes...

Much like Braum, Neeko is a big personality trapped in a small amount of lore, which leaves us all feeling like sad tomatoes. Unsatisfied with the amount of attention paid to everyone's favorite chameleon, we swerve into discussions about hunting and eating champions, clone boning, and warbled renditions of her theme song. Thanks to our guest, Pointless, who added to our wonderful array of Neeko i...

The Titan of the Depths had his old lore stolen by Pyke a little, but we appreciate Nautilus's deep need to collect the troll toll from stingy captain's even more. No major goals, no big threats, just a big anchor and creepy vibes. Quite refreshing!   --------   Twitter! twitter.com/loreheads   Discord! https://t.co/o21E0W4C8z?amp=1   Twitch! twitch.tv/loreheads   Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/...

Nasus is an old boy with some old lore, and some surprisingly long short stories. While we like the Curator of the Sands, we did use him as an excuse to complain about Azir/Xerath some more. They're like the Rise of the Sentinels of champions at this point.   ---------   Twitter! twitter.com/loreheads   Discord! https://t.co/o21E0W4C8z?amp=1   Twitch! twitch.tv/loreheads   Patreon! https://www.pat...

Nami doesn't have much lore, old or otherwise, but the little that's here is pretty solid. Unfortunately, we don't believe the Tidecaller will ever finally find Diana (she's too busy with the Sentinels, I suppose), but Nami can just wander the ocean carrying around that Abyssal Pearl for a century or two.   Thank you for joining us, Jelly Fish Fraud!   -------------   Twitter! https://twitter.com/...

Although we went over a lot of this lore with Kayle, let's be honest, Morgana is the more interesting sister. Although what is Morgana? A fallen angel? A god of death? A witch? Demacians sure can't seem to figure it out! But we do know that she is one dramatic queen. Respect.   And thank you for joining us, Snow!

Mordekaiser is not only old, but had to suffer from Riot not being entirely sure what to do with him. So this Iron Revenant has four old bios and a little bit of Viego stink. So much so, that people used to think Mordekaiser was The Ruined King. Mordekaiser isn't quite so big but has a world ending threat of his own. He's just patiently waiting for his turn on the "End Runeterra" list. Keep waitin...

Miss Fortune has quite a few short stories, a comic, and just a bunch of lore in general. But there's not a lot of bounty hunting in The Bounty Hunter's lore. Until we get to the AU's anyway, where she's a bounty hunter is just about every setting imaginable.   ----------   Twitter! https://twitter.com/loreheads   Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/leagueofloreheads   Join our Discord! https://t.co/...

Poor Master Yi suffers from being a stereotypical lonely swordsman BUT HE DID IT FIRST, OKAY? The Wuju Bladesman had a good amount of lore for being one of the oldest champions in the game, and it was enjoyable if not a little predictable. At least they explain why his mask has so many eyes...right? RIGHT?   ------------   witter! twitter.com/loreheads   Discord! https://t.co/o21E0W4C8z?amp=1   Tw...

The Twisted Treant is an ornery old soul, and we can relate. Yet another old champ tied into Viego's bull poop who didn't get any screen time during Rise of the Sentinels. But that's okay, it's still better than his old lore, which involves Twisted Treeline . What a throwback.   -----------   Twitter! https://twitter.com/loreheads   Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/leagueofloreheads   Join our Dis...

Even though he's an old champ and tied to the Void, this prophet was shockingly interesting. And barely changed from his original lore over a decade ago. Like most void champs, our main problem is that WE NEED MORE, RIOT. So please include in the void event, or I will cry.   ---------   Twitter! https://twitter.com/loreheads   Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/leagueofloreheads   Join our Discord!...

If you're wondering how much lore the Shard of the Monolith has, it's uhhh, not a whole lot. But what a nice break after all those extremely long episodes, yeah? But don't worry, there are also a bunch of incredibly old AU's that makes no sense!   ------------   Twitter! https://twitter.com/loreheads   Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/leagueofloreheads   Twitch! twitch.tv/loreheads   Join our Disc...

Sorry for another 2 hour long episode, but Riot really likes The Lady of Luminosity, and so do we. You can't tell, because we like to poke fun about how little Lux knows about shadows, but she's a fun lady. With a bunch of short stories, a comic, and 8 million skins, there's quite a bit to discuss. Plus, more opportunity to make fun of Garen.   And thank you for joining us, Kide!!

The Fae Sorceress has way more lore than any other yordle we've talked about so far but stiiiiil not a whole lot. Still, Lulu's lore is extremely fun, and we need more yordle cinematics! Thank you so much Faye Mata for blessing us with your wonderful presence!   ----------   Twitter! twitter.com/loreheads   Discord! https://t.co/o21E0W4C8z?amp=1   Twitch! twitch.tv/loreheads   Patreon! https://www...

Not only does The Purifier have quite a bit of lore in his name, it's all actually pretty well done. Lucian has been involved in some of the most well thought out lore in League of Legends history. Oh and also Rise of the Sentinels.    ---------------   Twitter! twitter.com/loreheads   Discord! https://t.co/o21E0W4C8z?amp=1   Twitch! twitch.tv/loreheads   Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/leagueofl...

There's a lot of cooks in the kitchen for this one, which means  maybe some of this story is in consistent, or maybe Lissandra is just a massive A-Hole. Or both! Or maybe none of it matters because most of her stories aren't linked on the Universe page anyway.   -----------   Twitter! twitter.com/loreheads   Discord! https://t.co/o21E0W4C8z?amp=1   Twitch! twitch.tv/loreheads   Song Title | Dragon...

We're not sure if we were too stupid for Lillia's metaphorical lore or maybe it was just a little wishy washy. Whatever it is, we could not focus on The Bashful Bloom , so maybe it's a good thing she doesn't have a lot of lore.   --------   Twitter! https://twitter.com/loreheads   Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/leagueofloreheads   Join our Discord! https://t.co/o21E0W4C8z   Song Title: Lillia, t...

The Radiant Dawn sure is radiant, especially when making lists. Does she still make lists? We hope so, even if she just fills them with people to murder. Leona's personality varies quite a bit in all her short stories, and we have fun trying to piece it all together with another Patreon guest, Tomatohead. Yay!   -----   Twitter! https://twitter.com/loreheads   Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/leag...

It's hard to imagine League of Legends without The Blind Monk, and it was hard for Riot to imagine any lore for him. At least anything new . But at least we have these Journal of Justice articles to go through!   -----------   Twitter! https://twitter.com/loreheads   Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/leagueofloreheads   Join our Discord! https://t.co/o21E0W4C8z   Song Title: God Fist Lee Sin Artist...

We love that this Deceiver seems to be all over Runeterra sticking her fingers in pies (it'll make sense when you hear the episode), but we could use a little bit more about, ya know, why ? What's your game, Leblanc? And why are you basically immortal? Is this just a Runeterra thing? Very confusing, please clarify. Thank you.   ---------   Twitter! https://twitter.com/loreheads   Patreon! https://...

If you're curious what Kog'Maw's lore is, he's a void pup who likes to eat. And that's about it. Poor boy doesn't even have a short story! So we've come up with our own ideas. Obviously all of them are gold.   ----------   Twitter! https://twitter.com/loreheads   Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/leagueofloreheads   Join our Discord! https://t.co/o21E0W4C8z   Song Title: Dragon Trainer Tristana Art...

We were so happy to have Sean from Trinity Force Pod with us to talk about the Cantankerous Cavalier. Kled doesn't have a lot of lore, but Riot sure had a solid idea for this champ and they ran with it (much like Skaarl!). I think for the first time, we really need more AU's here than anything else! MORE KLED SKINS!!   ------------   Twitter! https://twitter.com/loreheads   Patreon! https://www.pa...
