Veigar Visual Update
So Veigar was the second champ I ever played, and one of my favorites for the longest time. Since Tristana and Heimerdinger have gotten some of the yordle love going around, I thought maybe Veigar could get some too. While his theme is very well grounded and unique (crazed dark yordle mage) I feel like his aesthetic has become dated, and Riot should distance him from the obvious Black Mage reference that he is currently. (I also know theres a large line of champs that need a rework before him, and he's not really a priority, still, just brainstorming :D)
I love that Veigar is the stereotypical wizard with a staff that does large amounts of magic damage. The only other champ that fits that theme is Leblanc, but her character isn't quite as exciting or loud as Veigar in my opinion. So I think revisiting his look could be an amazing opportunity to add another visual dimension to the yordle lineup.
His voiceover is perfect, in every way (except duration, he needs more lines!), and I think that alone can carry the character so far. So imagine that voice when you see my redesigns. I think the look of Veigar could do with a more serious tone, but the voice would keep him kinda silly and wacky, which is great for his tragic story.
I made these (and the skin mockups) quickly and messily, but you get the idea, he would have more form than he does currently (large head, triangle robe, pizza feet). Obviously there's room for improvement, but I thought it would be fun to explore and draw out. Let me know what you guys think, and thanks for looking!
