Riot knows not the difference between Sexual and Sexy

Evelynn Ahri MissFortune Annie

"ok enough Foreplay" what else could that stand for?

The Ev voice-line is totally inappropriate. Yes it is hilarious, but not for this game. While there is lots of cheese and suggestive content already, this is explicit and there is no doubt about it. Want to make her a whore? , Fine but she is supposed to be mature and classy, not some high schooler going out on Halloween every day.

I play league in a room dedicated to gaming with my twin brother (born gaming sis-bro!), so countless times when I'm always using my speakers to get the best experience, our younger sister always regurgitates Annie and Lissandra's voice and laugh, respectively. When I would go on an Evelynn grind, my mother would pass by saying "that character is crazy sounding, but scary in a way". Then the annoying habit came that weekend when she would repeat "the dike is my veil" ..... can you imagine what she'd take from the current vx on the PBE? Oh my I don't even want to think about it.

So, as I am a 27- yrs old lady here - i K Now what it is to have countless games feature seductive female characters. I just wish Ev isn't the next one on the list and they fix her. You all have to be even before you can release something like this? No, Taric isn't the equivalent to a whore. As flamboyant as you want him, he is still decent. Where is the skinny guy with the big package and g-string in this game? That's what I thought. I don't see male characters being objectified in this game as they should if you wanna keep doing this to classic champions like Evelynn. (no Rakán, Ahri talking about you doesn't make you an object) .

Please save this for another lady of pleasure champion. Evelynn is supposed to be seductive, not "let him have everything there and then". That's not how seduction work, it's more of a loose tug of war. How can she so revealing....... when she is a concealing assassin? LIke wtf. ^____^ Oh and the reason for the rework was so that she did not tower dive so easily and survive by bursting under tower then simply walking away--- did the developers forget because now she is definitely going for that play style specifically with this kit. Btw, her walking is supposed to be front-forward like the classic Ev, not immature Miss Fortune or Start Guardian Ahri where is seems something is stuck up there.

Thanks for the love and I'd like to hear all of y'all's thoughts <3.

P.S. Anyone else have a sibling that mimics Annie!?

I kind of agree that some of her lines are over the top, especially "It's so...big" and a few others. But I'm mainly disappointed by "It takes a lot of effort to move like this in heels" not being in there, while some others are. "The dark is my veil" is a worthy line to keep, but one of the others they kept was rather generic.

Poop Jelly4 votes

I thought at one point, one of the Rioter mentioned the quote "It takes a lot of effort to move like this in heels" was kept in this new rework. I haven't had the patience to listen to all her quotes, but it's not there? Now that's disappointing....

I agree, this is some complete bullshit. No one wants to hear "touch me" " I like it when they talk dirty" , what is this shit? Ev is , I 100% agree, supposed to be classy seducer. NOT EARLY 20'S SLUT.

Isn't Ahri the more classy one?

She is. Despite being the OG charmer, her base lines are a LOT more tame (Even compared to Miss Fortune), but that is because her VO is old. They are still interpreted as sexual except it's more camouflaged.

Eve is just straight up Dirty. She will be the cause of the ESRB rating change.

Uh, I wasn't arguing against Riot's decision to make Eve into a dirty slut. I was making a statement.

ThunderSkelett1 votes

how can you be a slut when you dont even have sex at all and it's not like she has those lines without reason.

Best princess EU4 votes

Eve quotes are all non-explicite except the "i prefer to go naked but i'm fine" that should be straight up removed

every single one of them, if a kid asks you what she says, you can answer to the question without explaining something sexual

Eternal Torment2 votes

Have you heard her interactions with voidstaff? "it's so...big" thats a legit penis indication, not just a joke, but a complete frontal indication of one.

Then there are very suggestive taunts like "i can make you do much more than just jingle, space man" to bard.

Evelynn was meant to be a classy dark and slow-mo sadistic kinda creature, not this sex on the beach ripoff that has the crappy ending of 50 shades thrown into the mix

"it's so...big" thats a legit penis indication

no it isn't, unless the dictionary changed last year no way it's written you just imagine it because you're too used to talk with that language but "it's so big" in no way means it's a big penis

if my 10 yo brother asks me what she means i will just answer him by "she thinks void staff is big" and he will understand that quickly as he learns english with school

no idea and i honestly don't care never cared about evelynn

Eternal Torment2 votes

then why did you respond in complete defence of her if you don't even care about her?

and if you think her kit is not suggestive at all then you have not really been interacting with today's culture and social understanding. go over to memes & games or to story art & Sound if you really Need to witness just how ridiculously slutty this eve is that it actually is a sting in the eye and/or a living joke.

it's like riot made her voiceover to create a new meme that compensates for having killed older ones like "Yorick gets no skins"

Bevor her rework she was like that now she is still sardistic and dark but she also baits her victims with acting like she does now. btw she never even has sex

Kaeblen1 votes

You need to consider what people think when they don't know the lore, and don't play the game.

What are those people going to think about her quotes?

ThunderSkelett1 votes

Thei will judge it like a normal human and that is wrong?I mean we have killing machines Monsters and sereal Killers in the game nothing wrong with that?

Kaeblen1 votes

Your previous statement was based on people knowing her lore Before they made judgement on her quotes.

I'm just pointing out that you can't make that assumption.

I personally think rito has been trying a bit too hard with recent VOs like Rakan/Xayah and Eve's.

You need to be way more concise with your points and additionally provide some examples from both new and old eve to demonstrate it.

Your argument is: New Eves voice lines are less subtle and thus too slutty. She should retain voice lines from old eve that keep her essence as a seductress.

Find voice lines from new eve to prove your point, give suggestions for revamped ones that make it more "seductive" and provide voice lines from old eve to show what levels of "seductive" you are talking about.

The clothing argument is moot because old eve was just as skimpily dressed.

The younger sibling/mother argument is moot because its rated T for teens and Riot really couldn't care less about your sister/mother hearing their voice lines (Maybe wear headphones?)

The gameplay problem you have:

Oh and the reason for the rework was so that she did not tower dive so easily and survive by bursting under tower then simply walking away--- did the developers forget because now she is definitely going for that play style specifically with this kit.

is just straight up wrong. She did not tower dive easily. She is be able to tower dive decently (like most junglers) but her health pool is low (harder to tank) and doesn't have very good abilities for diving that champs like gragas, elise, kayne, zac, kindred etc. all have.

Eve is being reworked because her kit is outdated as fuck and frustrating to play against due to her stealth mechanic. Riots answer to fixing this is giving her cc (with counterplay), a gap closer, an escape tied to her ulti and removed her stealth pre 6.

I suggest making a new thread, focus on one single point (the fact that you think she is slut instead of seductive) and argue that one.

Hey man, how about you take a chill pill? Riot already made a post regarding community members like you go reread it. They don't want people verifying and rebutting things just for the sake of showing argumentation skills. Riot wants to hear what people think and their opinions. People will less likely share how they feel if they feel they have the write an essay to prove a point and exhibit evidence to people like you that can't give credit without having a police report brought to them or a thesis written about simple opinions.

Btw she is write in saying the original purpose of the rework was so that she wasn't a tower diver. The precisely reworked her because she was going tanky and just W-ing away from the turret after finishing an assassination as a tank.

Please learn to crit and concede, not just crit & crit. GG.

Alrighty lets try this again.

In order to discuss the points in the post and give my opinion on the topic i require a couple of things.

Knowledge of the new Eves voice lines. Knowledge of the old Eves voice lines.

No examples of either of these are provided anywhere in the post. How is someone coming from the boards supposed to give their opinion on them if they don't know or are only vaguely familiar with them?

There is much objectivity in what is objectifying and what isn't. One could argue that many things have been objectified if you want to go down that road. Blacks, Whites, Males, Females, Turtles, Bears, Trees, and the list can go on and on. All of these things are literally called, "Objects" when programming.

In other words, your argument is terrible since EVERYTHING is actually objectified. Thank god people are finally waking up to how toxic this social justice movement is. See you in a few years when you have learned the error of your ways. :-)

You are delusional. She's right about objectifying a male character. And you can't argue that. See you in a few minutes when you have learned the error of not seeing the point she was making with Taric. Taric

"She is right about objectifying a male character."

Yeah, she is right TO YOU. You must of missed something also since I claimed that every character in the game is objectified. Which is a fact.

This is something I wished more people understood: not every champion is meant to be mained by every player. IMO it's perfectly fine if there are champs that you'll either love or hate for its themes. A polarizing design can be a good one.

Well, I mean, officially it is "bear" just like how officially BF Sword stands for Best Friend Sword or maybe Big Friggin Sword. But we all know what it really stands for.

You know, Janna is stated to have been a Whore at one point in her lore.

There's only 1 quote I know of in game that ever refers to this though. Am I just uniformed?

How can she so revealing....... when she is a concealing assassin?

She's not an assassin anymore, she's a Demon akin to Tahm Kench, and even needs to be invited by her victims just like him before she can do anything.
