She's considered a core champion for the Shadow Isles, but not yet on their roster. |

Seems dumb that they gotta unlock her. Throw them a bone. |

For what it's worth, she should be pretty easy to unlock. Kinda unfortunate that the petition window just went by, though =/ |

I feel it wouldn't be unfair to give a sort of "mid-petition cycle petition." She's a CORE champion, not just a secondary. The Shadow Isles would be really intent on getting her. Honestly, I'm not sure why she wasn't on the list for petitions in the first place. I know she had only been out for a couple of days but....yeah, she was out for a couple of days, there was time. On the plus side, SI got Amumu and now they have some really powerful comps they can do. I was especially impressed by what the Fiddlesticks/Thresh lane could do, particularly with an Amumu gank. Very powerful combination. |

Yeah but a lack of an AD champion in that game killed them. They had at least two solid attempt to break the inhibitor turrets but were unable to do so due to low auto attack damage. I'll be the one to say it: there should be an executive order to greenlight her for immediate play for SI. |

Full Stop.

The petition started on Monday. She was released Wednesday night when I was expecting her to be released on Thursday. I would've made another poll, but the problem lies in the support/oppose actions, and, if Kallista was chosen, either SI's poll woudl be rushed or the support oppose would be rushed. People took major offense with the eight hour poll, so I wasn't inclined to repeat. The major problem with SI's first game was basically them not dealing with Akali's split pushing at all, and giving up baron for no reason. |

Also Shadow Isles were extremely hesitant to engage and capitalize when they did actually have the advantage. They were just too cautious, and you can't be like that unless you get the power to really single people out in the jungle, delete them and then force objectives. if you do play cautiously against a faction the way Ionia was playing, it just makes it so they can get more items and come back into the game. I'm going to say there's no green light on Kalista, but something was agreed on, a poll will be made soon enough, and I think people will like what they see.

*clears throat* As a gesture of good faith, I think it's only natural to allow the Shadow Isles to indoctrinate their newest ally into their forces post-haste. It is a crying shame they've been denied of Kalista's might for so long when it is clear they desperately needed her assistance. I know for certain I would have at least mildly upset by her refusal to join the League for so long, and now when she's finally come around she isn't being let in. All's fair in war, after all. |
