riot got rid of the lore that binds lol characters to the game itself so they can potentially use the characters in other games ie hearthstone type digiital card game or mobile platform games.

they have no intention of improving player satisfaction through lore, they just want to be able to put Ashe or Garen or Mundo into whatever ideas they come up with in the future without butting heads with lore restriction.
