If we go by Xin Zhao's lore, J3 should still be alive... so it probably is J2. However, in the war of the Crystal Scar, it looked more like J4 was involved (
Spoiler:
despite "him" actually being LeBlanc
) and neither J3 nor J2 were mentioned.

e: i can't into story, the war mentioned in Sion's new lore seems to have nothing to do with Crystal Scar, whoops

J3 is the current King of Demacia, so he is still alive, J4 is the prince and Xin Zhao's story takes place who knows how long ago.

However, it seems like between the death of the "Jarvan" by Sion's hands there has been a lot of shit going on, including an entirely new matriarch of the Black Rose (and wasn't "our" LeBlanc implied to already be pretty old, only using magic to disguise herself as young and beautiful? Her judgement makes her seem like she was chosen as matriarch when she was pretty young.) so it seems Jarvan's death happened quiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiite a bit ago.

Of course, since there's no way to know exactly how long ago it was, it could be J2, I'm more inclined to believe it was J1 though.

if only leblanc wasn't thrown in the dumpster and left to rot I would be excited for her skin

Oh come on, 4.17 just buffed her.

Minor, yes, but I don't think she's been forgotten, not by a long shot.

Prepare to dunk.
Spoiler:
Unfortunately, his voice doesn't seem as gravely as usual. I'm a little sad about that.
Edit: Apparently his bleed is now replaced with little basketballs circling the opponent, with the 5th mark being a flaming hoop.
Oh My God

its finally happening


HE ACTUALLY FUCKING DUNKS ON THEM FOR HIS ULT OH MY GOD

Actually LeBlanc is the tile of the Leader of the Black Rose. It's not her real name. When you become the matron of the Black Rose you take on the original matron's name, Hence why there could have been 'LeBlanc' years and years ago. Anyway; LB is 'the deceiver'. She could look like anything but be using an illusion to appear as she does.

And since Darkwill was the general before Swain, I think it is reasonable to assume the Jarvan Sion killed was Jarvan II. Unless the lore retcon makes Jarvan IV king and his father dead, they'd have to redo this lines however.

Anyway; time for THE GLORIOUS EVOLUTION. And Ambulance Soraka.

Also Victorious Shyvana. I don't think anyone saw that coming and I don't think anyone really cares about ANOTHER Shyvana skin.

Also Dunkmaster Darius has taken lessons from Draven in ego. Perhaps it runs in the blood after all.

[It's funny because Darius is actually nothing like a carry but this skin acts like it]

So many taunts.

Championship Shyvana, not Victorious.  The difference being that Victorious skins are gold ranked rewards, while Championship skins are skins that are sold during the days of the world championship finals - and only during that time.

Wrong name. I knew which I meant, I'm just too stupid to say it right.

Viktor game went OK but it was a 4v5. New Death Ray is even better waveclear than before because speed is the essence in waveclear. Early farming wasn't fun but I didn't get a single blue all game [Rengar kept taking it...] and I was against a Zed. So I had to play careful with my mana and cooldowns in case he tried to all-in [upon which I would throw my stun on myself, hit him with Q and then press R.]

*Looks at Sion's new kit*

I honestly don't see the point of him still having his shield except so AP Sion people don't completely cry.

Other than that, jury's out.

Also those Azir buffs on the PBE are laughable. He has a 42% winrate still. Giving him a base Ad buff literally does nothing.

And can we please not forget that Azir is bugged (and will be bugged until 4.18), so talking winrates right now is completely meaningless?

I mean, his soldiers sometimes fail to deal damage altogether, I'd wager that's a pretty big contributor for the low winrate.

Ah yes, I just noticed.

Quote
Centuries passed before another Grand General returned to Sion’s tomb determined to fully resurrect the great champion once again.

...which means he most certainly did not kill J2, as he is about the age of xin zhao, who must be around his late 60s or something to that effect.

The term "centuries" is rather odd though, especially if we assume if J1 was indeed J2s father, though J1 may have been J2's great-great-great grandfather or something, that has happened in history before.

Hmph, I guess it matters little though. Let's see what they decide to do with Sion from now on, his Lore is actually pretty cool though.

...Though the fact that his shield now deals % max enemy health worries me, maybe AP Sion isn't completely dead after all.

Or maybe he'll just be a bit too much as AD, we'll see.

If AP Sion still works it'll be a fluke.  No stun to wear through the initial timer on the shield before it can be detonated, and only 40% of the original AP ratio in damage, max health on target scaling or no [especially as that part doesn't scale with AP.

I'm interested in ASPD Sion eating people's faces with that +10% of max HP per attack when he goes into Glory In Death.  Maybe AP Sion will still exist and be more reliant on Nashor's Tooth and shit instead of "either I detonate my shield and deal huge damage or am useless".  (All of this is a bad idea)

Unfortunately, Riot stated in the initial Sion Q&A that his attack speed gets set to a specific, though very high, number while in Glory In Death. Largely so that people can build full tank and still wreck face while undead-er.

Ohhh.  Kind of unfortunte although I guess it makes sense.

Man I'm excited to Sion.

EDIT: For the confused, the Jarvan Sion killed was actually Jarvan I.

Man, Darius really IS Draven's brother. He is such a DICK.


And unless they pimp the AP ratios or put additional ones on Sion's other abilities, yeah, AP Sion is now on a similar level as AP Caitlyn.  :derp:

My main question right now is how exactly his life drains after he dies, and how said lifedrain scales. If he loses a % of his max hp every 0.25 seconds or something like that... wouldn't that undermine his max-hp-farm W-passive?

It's a % max HP. And it dosen't undermine anything. You live longer before your passive pops.

Yup.  Yes, you might be reducing the amount you can extend it via less lifesteal, but I'm pretty sure you'd need a silly amount of AD and lifesteal to begin with to successfully sustain the passive form, as it looks like it lasts maybe 5-6 seconds naturally.  If you're building full tank you don't have much AD anyway to make that matter.

I think what he meant is that the more max HP he gets, the less extra time he'd get from lifestealing while on his passive. Yeah, it's a liiiiittle counterproductive there, but I don't know if that's worse than losing flat HP over time while also getting that big AS and lifesteal buff. Besides, getting more max HP from his W passive meant he got more farm, and more farm meant he could buy more items, which either increases his damage output => more lifesteal during zombie, or less % of his HP taken as damage from other champs => also more longevity during zombie. Whereas if he lost flat HP over time he could just snowball his stats and drag out his zombie time more and more.

Believe me, you're not, I may hate Gangplank, but I'm all for change, especially when it buffs the weak and nerfs the strong - "balance in all things", after all.

Plus, change keeps the game fresh, maybe GP will be the OP of tomorrow, that certainly would be interesting.
