I think it's also a completely different kind of gaming than LoL. People that play League are there for the gameplay, not necessarily the lore. So it's probably attracting people that either don't play League or the rare folk that are actually invested in the lore. I just haven't had the time to squeeze in another game to suck emotional investment into so I've not opened it.
And ah! That makes me happy. Varus always felt... Really lonely? Like you've got rampaging anger god Aatrox, snarky murder nightmare Rhaast... and Varus. Who doesn't seem to talk about anything but that he's got a limited amount of time left and he'll make his enemies pay for their crimes against him (whatever that may be). He seemed a little weaker than his brethren (and so, not very wanted by them) and also the most human still, so I had hoped they would play into that. I'm glad they have!

Oh I didn't know that! I really like Varus, I'll have to look into it.
I like that with Varus, he's still being fucked with by his hosts. I have a feeling that they're going to pull a "power of love" shtick with them, because both of Varus hosts are very gay and very in love. It might either A) teach Varus a little more empathy/remind him that he was once human too or B) fuel their eventual eviction of Varus. Varus is always getting picked on by Aatrox anyway, maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea to choose the humans this time around lol.

That's just how it is with games isn't it? Always keeping us on a lore diet, lol.
Aren't they supposed to be changing some things with Varus? Could open up an opportunity for more Darkin lore if we get lucky.

I seriously adore these two. I wish I played more jungle so I could hear their banter more- they're like an old married couple that bond over murder. Just two idiots with God complexes bickering non stop, it's so entertaining.

Okay I'm thinking about this and can only decide that Rhaast is a belly sleeper. Just plops his face down and starts snoring.
Or maybe he just floats.
Guess it's convenient to hide inside the scythe while sleeping.
