Morello champ #101 Tease

[quote=Machineae]So as we know, champion 101 is going to be the plant mage Zyra. This is going to be a collective of information on the incoming champ. [img=http://riot-web-static.s3.amazonaws.com/images/news/July_2012/2012_07_10_zyra_teaser/zyraTeaser_Final.jpg] Quotes from various riot employeees (mainly Morello) [spoiler] [quote]While I maintain that Jayce's whole weapon-transforming thing is really fun, it's really not about some big mega-release milestone. It's a nice round number, sure, but I think it'd be kind of ****ty of us if we were holding something back for this that we'd had been capable of doing previously. I kind of see it as every champion needs to be a milestone of some kind - just trying to do something we hadn't done before in regards to gameplay, art, lore, or any mixture of them. I'll talk more about a couple of the big issues (monsters, why 3 masculine-style males so close) in a future post, but for this I wanna focus on the specific "champ 100 thing." I feel if there was something more special we could have done here, why aren't we doing that for every champion? I actually did a quick interview for a cool little video that takes a look back at our first 100 champions...it shows some of the process we use and a bit of revealing the man behind the curtain. I think that goes live next week. So, I probably shouldn't do this, but what the Hell. I'm really stoked about champion 101 too because I got to work much much more directly on it than I usually do and it's an archetype I think we've needed. I'll....plant a little teaser for you.[/quote] Original post- http://na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?p=26585153 [img=http://na.leagueoflegends.com/board/attachment.php?attachmentid=480517&d=1341596302] [quote]AP mid is definitely a primary role for her.[/quote] [quote]Kerrigan is a cool take on a classic "evil queen" archetype. We don't have one in LoL yet, and I did say this fills a needed archetype...[/quote] [quote]Let's throw another taste out there... One of her abilities spawns a seed on the ground that, initially, does almost nothing. And....go![/quote] [/spoiler][/quote]

[quote=OTGBionicArm]Finally, been waiting for this forever. -.- Plant mage ftw.[/quote]

[quote=Machineae]Forget about Jayce. I want this plant mage. Reminds me of Black Thorn Morgana. THe image Morello leaked doesn't look like typical splash art though. Looks like a low quality freeze frame from a video.[/quote]

[quote=Lugignaf][quote=Machineae] THe image Morello leaked doesn't look like typical splash art though. [/quote] It's probably a preview of the "A champion approaches" thing. I'm hyped for this.[/quote]

[quote=Luther3000]Hot female mage? Fuck yeah.[/quote]

[quote=Turbo Punz]Could this be the Plant King that got cancelled a while back? Except this is female.[/quote]

[quote=SkullzX]She looks like she would be either an AP mid or a jungler...I could see some cool pull move with her, a spike AOE move aswell.[/quote]

[quote=caucheka]already leaked [img]http://oi49.tinypic.com/a13li.jpg[/img] although the names been changed iirc, was xara now is zyra[/quote]

[quote=IceCreamy]Imma go with [[Xerath]]'s W, [[Maokai]]'s [[Sapling Toss]] and some sort of graffiti bomb. Ult would be [[Shyvana]]'s ult but instead she changes to a plant. She will also be untargetable while she is ulting (compare to [[Shyvana]] "flight"). Once the movement on the ult is complete she will be targetable again.[/quote]

[quote=Berzerk]Should be interesting, I hope she can lay plant traps =D.[/quote]
