I think it means that Skarner tribe originally was around Shurima and Ixtal border. He saw the Ixtalians settlers, and move in deeper into Ixtal after some time to create the capital, leaving his tribe that is now to the west of him. That's why it said the Humans came from the east.

Rek'sai, Giant Broodmother of doom, you never see her before she is directly under you and probably just ate your mount / you. Skarner, not only can he see her as if the ground wasn't there, he is big enough to crush her like a human would a mouse. Also he could literally manipulate the earth to spit her out just to make it easier to get ahold of her. Maybe that is why she sticks around Shurima and not venturing much further out. She is the big fish there, she is not even a pebble elsewhere, and she is aware of that.

I like this idea, it has a real life point to be based off, and gives more depth to their race. The brakener clearly didn't had much reason to stay aboveground and by how Skarner reacted to how "people were there one second and gone the next" their sense of time perception is very different from ours, Skarner is an outlier not the norm, it even makes him seem more special in comparison.

the monsterverse in ruinterra sounds funny with the hollow earth idea.

My biggest problem with the new story is that they seemingly only did this to make the arcane cast and other Piltovian champions look better. I mean Jayce and Victor should know where they come from as they are probably the only ones buying them. That would also make Victor who is a fan favourite a big hypocrite and everyone else at one point would either have to throw their weapons away or continue using the enslaved half-dead/undead/dead Brackern. So instead they cut Skarners and the Brackerns connection with the Hexcrystals and turned one of the only champions in League who suffered from oppresion into a paranoid, almost schizophrenic, kaiju-sized tyrant, who basically enslaved all of the Ixtal and I guess would prefer to kill them then let them have their own free will.

See I'm doing reading and can't find any connection to skarner and the hex crystals anymore.

7:30 Just because Ixtali played significant role in creating first Ascended, doesn't mean they were part of Shuriman Empire, so it's not a plothole in my opinion. Maybe there were diplamatic allies until Shurima decided to start conquering, maybe some Ixtali people left their city and joined Shurima first, or maybe Ixtali people were kidnapped and forced into helping.
@Kaelyn918 ай бұрын
It is a plothole because the Ixtali people are the settlers from the east. They were nowhere near Shurima. "When Skarner was older, it was through these vibrations that he detected a dramatic shift in the continent, marked by the arrival of settlers from the east... He surveyed these "Ixtali" people...." They were the ones settling from the opposite side of Shurima. Necrit sort of confused things by mixing up his East and West, methinks. So for the Ascended to cause Skarner such consternation and concern they would necessarily have to exist prior to or closely in sync with the arrival of the Ixtali settlers from the East.

I won't deny that it's definitely possible, but if that does turn out to be the case it'll be a major flaw in his story in general, just from a writing standpoint.

Considering the size of Runeterra map as we know it so far, and how massive Skarner is, it is literaly to assume that the map of Runeterra we have now is probably like 5-10% of the actual planet, because to sustain whole several clans of these massives beings, the planet would either have to be massive, OR, it's like spiders, where the majority of them perish before reaching a size as big as Skarner

I don't believe there's a lore plot hole with Ixtal and the Ascended. My best guess is that Ixtal did help the Shuriman Empire create the first Ascended. The Ascended then conquered other parts of the Shurima continent, but didn't attack Ixtal itself. Instead, the Shuriman Empire invited Ixtal to form an alliance, which Ixtal accepted. ^_^

The explanation for Shurima X Ixtal relationship could be simple, members of the Ixtali people participate in the creation of the ascended before the whole nation joined the empire. But Skarner wouldn’t have known of that fact, so from his point of view they didn’t know of each other

we can safely say Skarner's traumatized after seeing all the human deceit and greed and the void's destruction which made him uncapable of seeing an alternative to seclusion. He's simply obsessed with his own idea of safety due to trauma, to him, if ixtal opens up, it's as good as destroyed so it would make no difference if he destroyed it first regardless, probably.

Have you ever read Skarner's original story? It was pretty dark too. The idea of a giant MONSTER destroying its personal pet project out of anger from what they've done and paranoia fits perfectly. Not all champs are the good guys

@@usarhabilidade2697 Except pretty much only the Ferros family knew that the crystals were alive, the miners just thought they had found a bunch of dead crystals. He immediately resorted to violence when he woke up and tore people to shreds, he didn't even know that others had been harvested before him. Also, I shouldn't have to say this but immediately resorting to murdering people just because they're of the same species isn't a good thing that good people do. He could've just burst out of the sand and scared people away, because people did start fleeing in terror when they saw that one of them were alive.

Maybe Skarner's unique, secluded way of life has led him to survive far longer than most, and brackern keep growing forever like lobsters. Like, they don't usually get _that_ large or live for that long.

Yeah I hate that they're making him an antagonist. The setup feels like a step in the right direction, but at the end of the day, he's still a monster to be opposed, not a savior of his people (even if he was a doomed one originally). I feel like having the Void directly do something to the Brackern, and this leading him to those years of isolation -> the world is now changing and the Ixtal that he once knew is long gone -> he must learn to overcome the pain of the past (a send up to his old personality) and advise/lead Ixtal before it makes the same mistakes or worse. You still have a source of conflict, but he's still a fundamentally compassionate character who's not being presented as a problem Qiyana or Milio will have to "solve"

lore is a blank slate right now. Only thing we have confirmed so far is kayle/morgana/aatrox story, arcane story, ashe/tryndamere, kindred lore and smolder lore and now skarner. whole ixtal lore can be easily scrapped and that should be ok as long once they reveal new lore they stick to it and dont fuck it up
