Lets make Sion kick the enemy when he crits, even thought the has a big as fuck axe.
Seriously, as a Garen player that really annoys me, why was Garens epic fist to the face punch removed with such a lame excuse and then another champion basicly gets an identical unlogical crit animation?

he already hits people with his axe what more could you want.
although i admit the Garen punch was awesome.
JevelFaithful10 votesGaren has a metal gauntlet bigger than my head. +1 for saying it was awesome.

Mundo does a headsmash when he crits.

Funny side effect: People unfamiliar with Critplank think someone's hacking to spam Q when they see him shooting his pistol faster than once per second.

I swear this was me when I first started playing pvp... I saw a critplank (didn't know what it was, of course), and thought "why is he able to shoot so many times when if I play him I have to wait like 5 years to shoot again?"
DrCyanide1 votesNo joke, Friday one of my friends came up to me asking how the reset mechanic on Gangplank's Q worked. He was a bit confused when I told him there wasn't one, then he got all upset and went on about how "You should know when a champion uses an ability", to which I replied "It's not my fault you don't know the audio difference between the two".

Search it up.

I cannot think of a single problem unworthy of taking an anchor to the face.
Dog barking? Anchor to the face. Baby crying? Anchor to the face. Car won't start? Anchor to the face. Speeding ticket? Anchor to the face.
RasCaelestis9 votesIt's not triggered by crit strikes, but Nautilus still sometimes punches things as his AA. I'm not sure why they took it away from Garen, but I can understand why players want it back. I'd be seriously bummed out If they took Naut's...
JevelFaithful6 votesTheir reasoning is what the OP said unfortunately. I guess the artist team got a wee bit too serious about the new gruffy-serious-garen.
Zazusha8 votesisn't garen's crit animation a thrust? (like he does to Tryn in the 'Twist of Fate' Cinematic)
i find that badass as is.
Sion's crit is funny, but badass too. (300 horse kick down a well :P)
Xeynid5 votesYes. But that was after they "reworked" him and updated his visuals. Originally, his crit animation was a punch to the face.
Zazusha2 votesI think sion can get a pass on his crit animation.
In what normal, viable, non-troll, build do you have enough crit to see him spaming Kicks instead of usin his axe? (also his AA's already include Punching as well, and a shoulder tackle when attacking turrets).
Darius's Crit should become a punch to the face, Like he does in the New Dawn cinematic vs Rengar at the End.
junglerboy162 votesBuild Trinity force and watch your opponents cry. I just played a match as Sion jungle yesterday and because of the new jungle item I had nearly 3k health at lvl 12 with only 
so I got myself a 
. It is probably the best damage item for Sion because the Sheen procs on his high base damage HURT and that helps your R>E>Q>W burst combo, and occasionally you get to see that beautiful crit animation, which would almost be enough on its own.
BLU Medic7 votesGaren's crit punch is why I bought Garen.
CataclysmCrash5 votesWhat Riot says happened: "It's illogical so we didn't do it"
What really happened: "We forgot to add it since no one here gives half a rats ass about Garen and we're too lazy to change anything."
GloriousKaiser4 votesQ flip.
UPfreely4 votescan we change teemos crit animation to his death animation?
Quepha4 votesthe ult's kill animation actually bugs me a lot more. it's clearly way too much shit on my screen and riot justifies that by saying "well it's only for the garen player, no one else sees it"
if it's too much for other players to see then it's certainly too much for me.
Aarekk3 votesIf you don't want your ultimate to kill people so hard your screen explodes, why are you playing Garen?
junglerboy163 votesI agree, Garen going man mode and punching in the enemy's face was awesome, just like Sion breaking their kneecaps is awesome.

Rew7111 votesHonestly, though, about Garen's critical, I thought it was him stabbing the enemy with his sword. I guess this must had been recent because I've never seen him punch... I have played Garen with critical items and its actually fun.
Captain Aishi4 voteshis punch was back when it was real garen, not the VU'd abomination we're now stuck with

RIP his old splash art.
He went from the incredibly heroic, badass dude to the random screaming douche bag. Especially the icon.

F*ck it, this anchor is to heavy. Slap! "You have slain an enemy."
NinjaFifer2 votesMundo HEADBUTT!
Matezoide2 votesIIRC, old Garen had 3 auto attack animations, one of the being his punch. At worst, i fully remember him punching without any crit items.
Meanwhil Sion has a punch on his regular basic attack lol
The Garen VU was a complete failure that should have been reverted a long time ago. The only good thing that came out of that bullshit were the updated icons and his epic "JUSTICE!" scream.
Ra1d2 votesI'd love to see a new garen rework where they give him some new animations but also keep some of his current ones. I haven't been playing him long enough to see him punch but a VU is long overdue for him even though he got one two years ago. I really hate his trashcan skin(Steel Legion) so much. His Commando skin looks nothing like the artwork and that beret is stupid looking. Rugged Garen and Dreadknight look pretty cool as does his classic, but the rest just need changes. Also I'd enjoy seeing him punch people. He has a free hand so why not. And a downward slash rather than a angled slash would also look cool for crits.
FancyKiwi1 votesAt two minutes in this video is what his crit animation should be.
Ancient Tower1 votesHmm, I thought that 
's punch animation was one of his basic attacks pre-rework and his pre-rework crit was an overhead downward slash like the current decisive strike but without the vertical take-off. Then they dragged and dropped 
's aa animation and touched it up with his crit being a copy of the cinematic's stabbing of 
. I love the new crit animation, but having only two basic auto attack animations is really boring. He swings left, then right, then left, then..ri..ght..z.z.zzzz....
The loss of the front flip-spin master slam on Q's also a bug of mine ._. Now he just kind of floats...it's really weird. Also low attack speed (aka base) is really painful to watch on top of only two animations. Critting is an absolute joy for some reason though, despite only having a single animation, it seems to be a lot smoother overall.
BlackSunNocturne1 votesSion is also a 12 foot tall monster of a man.
To be honest, I'd be more afraid of Sion's kick than Garen's sword stab/facepunch.
Ryan the Skitzo1 votesAmumu's crit is by far the best.
