Isn't the better question why doesn't every character have a running animation?

While certain characters need a full visual update (I see this guy every time I go to stop and shop Jax), is it too much to ask that every character in the game at least have a running animation? It could be the world's most simple animation so long as it's different.

It looks weird seeing some champions walk at mach 5, Swain in particular is cringe-worthy.

Cringe-worthy?

Watching Swain hobble like the wind is hilarious.

Having this pointed out to me makes me want to use his classic skin again xD

I think most newer champs have this. It's the older ones that need some help.

Well, seeing how Jax is legit one of the most OG champions in all of league and hes been ignored in terms of nerfs and updates unlike some champs (we see you Ryze ) its possible they will rework his walk animation after they adress the EVE and Urgot rework but its still minor so we might be waiting a while.

And considering they changed his attack animations recently.

I find it hilarious personally.

On that note, you reminded me of how I miss Alistars old walking animation so much. before he walked like he was alpha as fuck and owned the Rift. Now he stumps around or skips like a pansy.

More to the point tho, a lot of champions Riot simply doesn't do this sort of thing because it would be a waste of resources, as these champions are more than likely to get eventual visual updates anyway. So really, just give it some time i guess.

All I can say is there should always be at least one champion without a run animation. Viktor without his powerwalk just wouldn't be Viktor.

Fiddlesticks running at max speed is fucking hilarious but yeah

I completely agree champions should get a running animation pass
