League of Loreheads

Azir

Episode Summary

The Loreheads get angry and rant for a while.

Episode Notes

Unfortunately, the lore for Azir, The Emperor of the Sands, is too messy for our liking. Like most champions, his backstory holds a lot of promise with little payoff. Unlike most champions, Azir's story is full of nonsensical decisions and massive plot holes, despite having a longer bio than most champions. Join us as we dissect where Riot went wrong with this emperor.

Content Warnings for discussions of rape and slavery. Never thought I'd have to put that in a podcast about LoL lore.
