Rise of the Eidols=Fall of Ouroborus?

So we now have the 10 years Anni trailer, which shows ALL the big antagonists throught the story mode:Kang, Thanos, The Maestro, The elders, yeah, that seems to be all of it...
Right?
Well, no...

It feels to me like the Galactus treatment again, I mean, Ouroborus and The Chronoserpant won't be cast aside, it's too late for that, but that's all the more reasons it's weird to me that in this trailer the Eidols are the emerging threat and The Chronoserpant is non existent...
Not to mention she should be mad at the literal parasite that drains energy from the battlerealm and brings corruption into it rather than us, but who am I to judge...

Now, we had her Pov, maybe the intention is to imply that she simply doesn't know of The Chronoserpant yet. Either way, if there's an enemy that she should be annoyed at, is The chronoserpant, cuz unlike others-he is hurting the very Battlerealm itself, not just the residents of it.

I hope the Eidols lore will tie into Ouroborus lore, it's a match made in heaven, for the reason above.

Maybe they didnt put chronoserpent in as he isnt defeated what they show and trailer was about is the eidols emerging reclaiming the contest and isophyene clearly said defeated kang thanos etc but not chronoserpent as his story is still on going he isnt taken down yet

I mean the deathless champions didn't stop ouroborus coming, I think it's fair to assume that story bosses and themed champion releases aren't specifically linked

EdisonLaw

So will Isophyne be aligned with the Chronoserpent and his Ouroboros or against them?

Pretty sure story and monthly quests are 2 different storylines nowadays since there were issues in the past of story being progressed in event quests that people will never see (like Carina and Ægon event quest between acts 5 and 6)

That's probably why we see newer champions as defenders in quests way later. Like so far we haven't seen Serpent or Bullseye as quest defenders.

Yeah but we have seen deathless she hulk as a defender already. I think Kabam are just having a little mercy on us by not forcing us to go against those 2 and Enchantress, Fantman, Photon, Onslaught etc... Don't really see much of them in EQ if ever. They know we deal with them enough in AW and BG

Isophyne beats chromoserpent, and does the chicken dance on him.

@KRANꓘ directs the dancing.

Imagine if Enchantress or Serpent is the final boss of the Seasons of Suffering. It'll truly live up to its name

They cannot have an alliance.

These are two different storylines. Chronoserpent will remain in the acts. I remember when I asked Tyler about this big threat that the Summoner has never faced before (which Count Nefaria warned about in the September event quest), he said it would be new threat, and Chronoserpent will remain in the main story.
But what's notable is that this storyline with the Eidols and the Founders (multidimensional aliens, who were the first to colonized Battlerealm) does not start with the September event quest and not even with the December event quest, but with the January 2023 event quest "Overture of Evil". Where do we learn that the description is about the Founders (the first to colonize the Battlerealm before Aegon's race) who created the Iso-Sphere and Aegon's Iso-Belt itself. But Aegon's race, like himself, was afraid what made these powerful beings (with such iso-relics) leave the Battlerealm, that it must be something truly terrible... I think this will be a continuation after all the Eidols are released, because if it wasn't the Chronoserpent who made them leave Battlerealm, then we'll have to meet him yet:

Ourobøros

The Eidols might become part of the good ones and help fight Ouroboros

And then they all had a tea party together...
