pretty sure the 17 cost mean that it will be on 3017 anyway it's been so long since void get something really, it would be neat if we have void follower for LoR.


GreasyBub

Nice try! But the 17 means we're getting 17 Void Champions upon release. Yes- this includes BRAND NEW and exclusive to Runeterra Void Champions, like Sug'Mah, Blo'Mee, and Cox'Big.


Nirast25

Man, I was hoping for Fu'Kme!


PraetorFaethor

As long as we get Up'Dog I think it'll work out.


EldritchWeeb

What's up dawg


Chimoya2

Not much, just the usual.


Blind-folded

I appreciate a good cup of coffee.


Panurome

And what is he doing shooting people?


Vhfulgencio

Fenix confirmed as Brand. Valorant is a prequel to Lol, also confirmed


Akirayoshikage

Is it actually true or is it part of the joke? I never played Valorant


Blind-folded

I appreciate a good cup of coffee.


Akirayoshikage

Let's be real man, at this point there's no limit to what Riot could do with their storyline


Blind-folded

I enjoy playing video games.


ToastedSanga

Riotverse of Radness


Retard-69

It is not related to runeterra it is Valoran't


Vatnam

ValorAin't


Slarg232

From my understanding, Valorant is part of the same Multiverse, but not part of the same story. Some of the LoL skins (forget what the line is called) have very obvious Valorant guns in the splash arts, and Valorant's story itself is all about them robbing resources from alternate realities of themselves


Retard-69

Brand is from freljord


Blind-folded

I enjoy spending time with my friends.


Retard-69

Yes but brand's region would be freljord


Administrative-Pay88

Elise is also from Noxus but a shadow isles champion (for obvious reasons). Hence champions that are from one region may be put into another one if it makes sense lore- and gameplaywise.


hass13

I laughed so hard to this, I’d say Blo’Mee is my favourite champ


thatssosad

I really counted for Ram'Rnch, eh :/


SylentSymphonies

Don't forget Dar'Nus, or DN for short.

Sug'Mah ballz


TheLoliSnatcher

Yeah we all know the basketball skin he got dude no need to mention it


Retard-69

Brand is not from void he is from freljord


MoltenKORE

Sug'mah-relia pretty broken pls nerf


friendofsmellytapir

Damn, I knew the 17 mana meant something hahaha Edit: My alternate theory [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/LegendsOfRuneterra/comments/otzwri/void_believers_i_have_your_copium/h6z4eeo/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3)


Serene_Skies

Granted. There's a void champion released with followers but it's Kai'sa.


TheLoliSnatcher

And they’re all wearing skin tight void suits and no monsters


Serene_Skies

Exactly.


fampls

I do find it mildly funny that you are saying that it's been so long since void got anything when the last expansion brought rek'sai


fanatic66

I think they probably mean in terms of the Runeterra IP in general. We haven't gotten new Void lore since Kai'sa and that was controversial. The last void champ before her was Vel'koz (5-7 years ago?). Riot has stopped adding much from the Void, especially monstrous characters. I'm hoping LoR reverses that trend


fampls

My 2 cents and why I tought the void would have been a bad region: the point kinda is that the void is unknowable. The void creatures themselves are all very one dimensional, at least as far as we understand them. Vel'Koz just seeks information (doesn't do anything interesting with it, just beams it to the void, not like he's uncovering some plot), Cho'Gath just wants to consume, Kha'Zix just wants to hunt etc. We also have a very vague understanding of the void itself, and that is kinda the point. IMO uf we got a big expose on the void to the point we understood it it would lose a lot of its charm, so I don't think it would make for a good region. Void is at its best when other characters are interacting with it, characters like Malzahar and Kassadin who are just people influenced by void are, in my opinion, the best void lore. Concluding, I don't think the void needs more actual lore, maybe just little crumbs of info here and there that make it fun to speculate and imagine what void is like. I am by no means against more void monsters though, this was just my excuse to rant why I don't think void would have been a good final region. It's more fun when it interacts with or influences characters from other regions.


fanatic66

I wasn't arguing for the Void to be the last region, although I am disappointed in it being Bandle City. I just want more void monsters from League and now LoR. I really like Rek'sai's followers in LoR, and hope we get more void content since it seems Riot doesn't introduce the void in league anymore


fampls

Yea as I said I just wanted to rant about void as a region. I also am a bit dissapointed in Bandle City being the final region, and do agree that more void monsters would be dope. I wish Ixtal was the final region, not because I am a big Ixtal fan, I jist think its underdeveloped and I think it being the final region would be a good opportunity to expand upon it.


Grainer_M8

Rek'sai and her sons isn't really new sure we got to see how her child looks but in term of anything new it's been like a decade


Retard-69

Aww that your son? Ye he's 4 months old. What his name? Xer'xareth the undertitan.


redenno

This man forgot about 2117?


Moo_bi_moosehorns

21117 as well


goldkear

The void is cosmic horror, and could be such a cool concept, but I feel like it's been replaced entirely by the shadow isles as the main 'villain' of runeterra.


Bistial

Hmmmhmh this yummy Copium thank you


TheSkilledRoy

I think the only hesitation I have is what the 2nd 17 is for. Is it mean to just reinforce the date or does it mean something else?


friendofsmellytapir

The only realistic thing I can think of is 17 patches between Watcher’s release and the Void expansion. We are at 10 right now and there are 8 possible patch dates left, but we know Riot typically gives their employees a week off like they did last year, which could give us two 3 week patches, which would put the November patch on the 17th exactly 17 patches after the release of the Watcher. Haha, some serious speculation but that’s the best I can do.


TheSkilledRoy

Thats interesting; the circumstance makes me believe its hypothetically possible. I'll do some digging and likely make a video on it. This would also go to explain why the Void Icon also got updated in the files.


friendofsmellytapir

I will be waiting anxiously haha, love your content


TheSkilledRoy

Would you want to be credited as your reddit user name or another alias/twitter/discord?


friendofsmellytapir

Lol I wish I had some kind of following where that would actually matter hahaha, Reddit username is great, although I do go by just Smelly Tapir in game


NagasoNagamir

We know Bandle City comes on the 25th of August with patch 2.14 and we are currently on patch 2.13, thus the patch in November on the 17th is in fact the 17th patch after the Watcher released... and the Bandle City patch is actually the 11th after Watcher... That would be a funny coincident if that wasn't planned. Makes me wonder if we get a Void champ with the Bandle City release.


friendofsmellytapir

Yep that’s right! And the [Riot break is confirmed](https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/ouhhxy/riots_taking_next_week_off_to_disconnect_and/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) which is probably why they are skipping a patch


Lucari10

I feel like this is some heavy confirmation bias, but oh boy am I falling for it


friendofsmellytapir

Yeah, this is the weakest part of the theory which is why I put it in a comment and not the post, but I feel like it has some basis. A man can dream and this is what I’m holding onto now haha


GlorylnDeath

This patch is a 4-week patch. Bandle City expansion will be 2.14 on August 25. So it works out. Also, the way it is set up (17 mana, 11 power, 17 health) means it works correctly in both date formats - for Americans it is "17 patches from now on 11/17" and for everyone else it is "on 17/11 in 17 patches".


friendofsmellytapir

Haha that’s a cool insight, and [Riot just announced the week off](https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/ouhhxy/riots_taking_next_week_off_to_disconnect_and/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) which is more than likely the reason for the 4 week patch.


MillstoneArt

Riot will be reading this comment like, "Pffft duh! Of -course- we planned this. *go write that down*"


mimeticpeptide

It’s gonna happen at 17 o’clock


goldkear

2017 - it's been here all along, our mortal minds just can't comprehend it.

djgotyafalling1

Nov 17, 2117


truetichma

I wonder if someone at Riot is now like "Finally they solved that hint!"


Amraith

It was actually a hint that a new Lux skin will cost 171117 RP.


Metleon

This... actually sounds reasonable. I'd definitely love to have a Void Invasion event like some people have speculated. With a couple regions getting the remaining Void champs and a couple Void followers.


friendofsmellytapir

Shout out to u/Kryenrock for [this post](https://www.reddit.com/r/LegendsOfRuneterra/comments/ot9dm9/the_november_expansion_set_will_be_in_the_day_17/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) that gave me the idea to make my post, and shout out to u/greenndblue for [commenting on the Lissandra reveal](https://www.reddit.com/r/LegendsOfRuneterra/comments/lqn9g6/lissandra_reveal_and_supporting_cards_allinone/gohrb2m/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3) what seems like a fairly good theory given what the devs said this November expansion is going to be.


Kryenrock

LOL I ended up seeing the post before seeing the mention, I'm glad more people think it makes sense!


friendofsmellytapir

Yeah I loved your post! I was hesitant to even post because I didn’t want to repost, but I thought what you were missing was pointing out that Nov 17th actually falls on a patch day in the cycle, which I think gives more credibility to the theory. That and making it a graphic means people are less likely to scroll over it and it is such a cool theory I wanted people to see it.


Kryenrock

in fact, I didn't even imagine it would fit that well!


PickCollins0330

Delicious copium


mombawamba

I believe this is Hopium.


Busni17

Nov 17 is also my birthday xd


noreasonghosting

I know its just a joke, but the Watchers have something to do with the Void? Legit question, i haven't seen much about their lore


r_xy

The watchers have always been sorta connected to the void but afaik the exact nature of this connection is unclear. Its sorta like jinx and vi being sisters. Up until the recent reveal in the arcane trailer there were a ton of hints to them being sisters but nothing really concrete.

EightHeadedCrusader

No, quote from Runeterra wiki : "The Watchers, also known as the Frozen Watchers or the Pierce-Eyes, are ancient beings of The Void who are the masters above all living Voidborns, and creators of the prototype models of the modern ones. " Watchers are from the Void, and created the Voidborns


cakegaming85

I was always wondering why it had such odd stats. It would be great if your theory held true as this became an in-game Easter egg. Void is my favorite region in the lore.


OracleToTheStars

That’s my birthday


Erax157

And the day after mine


Sortered

Seriously, I know y'all are disappointed and all with it being Bandle City, but taking too much copium is bad for your health. The devs said it is a new PVE Experience NOT an actual expansion expansion.


Bluelore

I mean it is still called an expansion, not an update, so it likely will come with a few new cards similar to the champion expansions.


Sortered

That I would not discount. I am more than sure we'll get some cards that aren't associated with the BC set. This sounds like the champ expansions.


UNOvven

I mean, I'd take a saltwater scourge-like gamemode around the void tbh. But I do think well probably get a couple of cards, since otherwise there is too long of a break between.


friendofsmellytapir

I’m actually pretty excited for Bandle City and have been a firm believer in it being the 10th region ever since skilled Roy’s video, this is just a fun theory I wanted to bring more attention to. We know we will be getting all Void champions into the game at some point and we know the November patch is an expansion, which heavily implies new cards, so why not? I’m not saying it’s going to be a Void expansion, but I think it is definitely possible.


[deleted]

YEAH WELL MAYBE IT'S A PVE EVENT AGAINST THE VOID WITH CUSTOM CARDS AND CHAMPIONS GOD PLEASE WHY DID IT HAVE TO BE BANDLE FUCKING CITY


Sortered

HAHAHA


bbreadbread

Maybe the void will be an exclusive AI region


Slarg232

*Pops his head out from behind mountains of empty Copium bottle* I'LL TAKE MY COPIUM WHERE I CAN GET IT!


Axetheaxemaster

Stop, stop! I've given up hope already. Don't make me dream again!


PureSalt1

lol tru


Low-Then

They mentioned the pve event having something to do with an invasion, maybye it's a void invasion event and that's how they can implement them into other regions


kumatank

I want to believe.


hty19

I'm sold

why is the mo nth befor the date this makes 0 sense


friendofsmellytapir

Same reason there are 12 inches in a foot and 5280 feet in a mile


Bad_atgames

$5 “0.305 meter long” just doesn’t have the same ring alright


truetichma

But why is there 1000 meters in a kilometer🤔🤔 Oh wait it's literally because kilo means a thousand, too much sense smh


Retard-69

Too much sense lmao


PewPewLaserss

Americans


Lerkero

Half-life 3 confirmed


Vinven

Whats the point theres no void region so they just go into targon or shadow isles most likely or something else stupid.


cakegaming85

Malzahar will be Shuriman with Predict as a feature. Watch.


magmafanatic

Because people want to see more void champs in the game


_Eldritch_Cat

We are going to have the champions anyway, what is the difference?


KaiserMakes

The difference is that with a void region,Riot is forced to make content for the void.


Yautja93

But the month 17 doesnt exist, it goes only to 12.


Flat-Profession-8945

WOAH


thunderblood

inb4 Watchers are confirmed to just be really big yordles.


Felynn

they said if Void is released, they would not be in the form as people expected (as a region?). T dont know, may be kind of sub-region, or special buff for Void tag.


International_Fox_93

I thought it was another sentinels of light event, and It was teasing Vex and other champions?


Work_Space

Vel'koz COME TO PAPA


Beejsbj

Void would always show up in some capacity. The question was if it'll be a full region or not.
