Hello creative design team, other lore advocates, or just people who got bored of GD and came here, I posses of question regarding MF's lore. Having been with LoL for quite some time (I think when akali was released) I have always enjoyed reading the lore of each new champion when they were released, in regards to miss fortune, I particularly liked the quote "One day, young Sarah returned home to hear gunshots and screaming. Her front door was smashed open; inside, she saw her mother lying in a pool of blood. A sudden blow to her head made her collapse next to her slain mother. The last thing she could remember were her attacker's red eyes, as his face was blocked by a rogue's bandana."

I personally thought that the rogue to be our very own saltwater scourge, Gangplank. This idea was thought of because at the time, Gangplank had his older splash art depicting him with a laser eye, but now, GP has brown eyes instead of red.

So my question is this? Was it GP or is there perhaps someone else lurking in the shadows?

Little known fact, but it was actually Nasus.

He's been known to murder defenseless women. It's one of his hobbies, actually.


...What?

Upvoted Renekton Bot.

Anyhow, Although Riot have advocated that in most situations, Skins are not Canon (Or officially part of the characters background) That particular phrase, when first read by myself, Pointed to Swain. Particularly Bilgewater Swain, Where he has the aforementioned Bandana. Red Eyes, And carries an instrument capable of knocking out a woman (Cane)

I figured it could have been GP's dad, Vincent the Shadow. In MF's judgment, GP shows up and saves her before taking her comb - if it was Vincent's crew that carried out the attack, that would explain GP's presence.

I feel Swain should have been accompanied by Noxian troops, since he was an officer from the start. I dunno though, maybe he's got a taste for pirate gold or something?

Nasus wearing a bandanna - I imagine that would be Nasus dressed like a pirate. Renekton, who does it feel to know Nasus is also a salty seadog? He's encroaching on the water - that's traditionally a crocodile domain.

I've been wondering this too, I always assumed GP was either that man or connected to him because of his old splash. But now in his new one, his old red eye is gone.
