Well, it's been some time now since I stopped playing,

I find the new lore... acceptable. Unlike the bullshit that was Varus' retcon (being the last lore update before I stopped playing... or the first one afterwards, don't remember now) this one is good and while I don't disagree with a number of things, it's a good read nonetheless.

Number one would be the essence of Syndra's abilities. It actually ended up being exactly what I always thought it is, but at the same time I find it questionable that condensing the magic flat out makes everything in vicinity die. Unless that's only an Ionian thing and in places less accustomed to magic effects are less noticeable or non-existent altogether.

Two is how it's only anger and anguish. Unless, again, it's only, because of Syndra's current state and she'd be able to make it less painted with negative emotions.

Three is that she turned into a sleeping beauty, but at least the rest of the background is identical and merely expanded on instead, so it's a minor point.

Should it have been released sooner, maybe I'd still be playing.
