Same with LoL

While not exactly a plot, LoL launched with a decent amount of lore, and grew over time. I still have my physical copy that came with a map of the nations and where main characters were from.

They wiped all canon because they felt continuity made it too hard to make interesting stories

Everything that came out since is akin to fan fiction

They rewrote the lore, and it now has depth with spin offs, books, online lore, in-game events, especially Legends of Runeterra. Shifting away from ryze as the main character was a great choice.

Yeah it’s just the above

It’s all out of canon
