A dumb theory as to why Riot re-recorded Akali's base VO

Discussion

What if they're adding Mayym Jhomen Tethi (Akali's mom) to the game at some point down the line? This would be an explanation as to why they didn't add any new lines to Akali's short-ass VO, since they'd be saving all the new lines for when her lore moves forward when Mayym is added to the game. Akali has a lot of issues stemming from Mayym's neglect of her, so their banter would be pretty interesting.

I don't think this is very plausible, but I'm honestly just hoping this or something like this is the case, because otherwise I think that the VO swap is completely unjustified.

Anyways, ignoring the whole VO thing, it would be really cool to have a champ with the "Fist of Shadow" title in the game again!

my theory is shes going to be on project L so they used her voice actor from lor, then they decided to change all her voices to be the same person.
