Official Champion Design Rant Thread

[quote=jamespongebob]You're twisting things awfully, aren't you? I don't really want this to be too sidetracked, but you're also making assumptions on what you perceive most champions to be when there isn't really evidence to support either.[/quote]

[quote=Toshabi][quote=jamespongebob]You're twisting things awfully, aren't you? I don't really want this to be too sidetracked, but you're also making assumptions on what you perceive most champions to be when there isn't really evidence to support either.[/quote] If you look at my replies, I never made assumptions about any champion's sexuality in this thread. I just chastised you for stereotyping sexualities. And what's even more hilarious is that this response you gave me is a load of advice that you should deep throat yourself.

[quote=GrandmasterD][quote=FantasySniper]When they do personalities for champions like [[Vi]] and [[Jinx]], you need to remember that these aren't in-depth characters we're going to play as through a 3≤ hour game, they'll always be easily labeled with a gimic because there is next to no characterization to them. [[Vi]]'s being "punch-ey gal" and [[Jinx]]'s being "crazy chick". (As for [[Caitlyn]], she is outdated anyways, and they've already said they want to revamp her...) If you want to continue: [[Yasuo]]'s a "ronin", [[Thresh]] is a "sadist", [[Lucian]] is a "vengeful widower", and so on. I honestly have no problem with their personalities, they are enjoyable despite their simplicity, and wanting anything more is probably asking too much. Of course knowing the character would make them less 2D, but this is isn't the type of game to supply that type of information about every one of its 100+ characters. [/quote] These aren't even real arguments. I think I'm allowed to expect proper character design from people who went to school for that stuff and are getting paid to do so. However, that's not even the problem. Riot's trying to pass these characters off as real characters with a lot of depth which, clearly, isn't the case. Caricatures are enjoyable, but only for a moment or so.[/quote]

[quote=jamespongebob]Riot [[kayle]]'s tentative splash art is out. [img=http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140807214721/leagueoflegends/images/f/fd/Kayle_RiotSkin.jpg width=650][/quote]

[quote=MyBloodisBlack]some of [[Caitlyn]] stuff annoys me deeply 1. In her Lore, they refer to her having an arch nemesis simply known as "C", for some reason this was never elaborated on and it has never been revealed as to who this might be or if they were a current champion or even a future champion. Considering [[Vi]] was like Season 3 and without any mentions they created [[Jinx]] as her arch nemesis you would kind of assume that this "C" character would always be in the works too. 2. [[Yordle snap trap]] - You know what the question is? What is Caitlyn issue with Yordles that she requires some kind of trap designed to catch Yordles for? is this in any way linked to the first question? Is the mysterious "C" actually some kind of Yordle?[/quote]

The name [[yordle snap trap]] seems pretty random.[/quote]

But [[caitlyn]]'s lore said that most of her weaponry was made by her mother (although it is possible that over time she started to acquire weaponry from other sources, especially since yordles are quite the innovators).[/quote]
