@Riot Vel'koz's Character Request

Let me be the first to say I absolutely love Vel'koz's personality. I love how he can be so curious, sinister, naive and boastful all at the same time. My particular favorite is how in some of Vel'koz's lines he takes a villainous pause (pausing for camera close up no doubt) before finishing his thought.

*"You may experience mild...incineration." "High concentration test subjects...wonderful." *

I have one request and its going to keep nagging at me if I don't say anything.

**Is there a way to make Vel'koz recite one of his observations after killing an enemy with his ult?**I found it quite odd he wouldn't give the player insight into what he learns upon killing an enemy. This something that is played up in his lore and his VO. It just seems natural to me that killing an enemy with his ult would be a perfect time to add this character quirk. It could just be one of his attacking or movement lines really. Some that stand out...

"Flailing appears to be a universal response." "Human melting point remains... inconsistent."

OR HE could just have one line and that would be enough for me...

"Thank you for your... contribution."

There are some interactions similar to this that are in as easter-eggs (Vi and Cait have some fun interactions), and as a tentacly dude that kills people for research purposes, it would be a pretty sweet tie-in to his character, I agree.
I can't make any promises but I'll mention it to the Narrative and Sound depts and see if that's something we can look at. They would be the best guys to determine if that's feasible to implement :)

Very cool. Not a Vel ' Koz player here, but I found myself grinning as I read those lines in his voice (sorta) I think the - "Human melting point remains... inconsistent." would be the bomb.

EDIT: My stupidity amazes me... xD Yeah, of course there would have to be other lines. Thanks for the call out Soulbag.

A lot of champions aren't human, so it would would have to change if he says it every time he killed somebody.

you could replace human with "subjects"/subject's" (it would be the same line just showing how its grammatically correct) i was thinking organic or organism however there is galio and blitz....

They did something like this with Veigar. Any time he kills someone with his ult, he laughs. Very evilly Veigar

I must say, I would absolutely LOVE to hear my favorite quote of his after ulting 3 or 4 people down.

"Tears appear to serve no function.."
