Can we please add back Akali's passive trigger sounds?

In 3.2 patch since her passive got touched she lost the sound trigger of her passive, would it be too much to ask to add them back in while also improving the glowing animation? Before the passive change the thematic of the sounds and animation was much cooler and better.

Since then it feels like a downgrade to a champions visual gfx effects thematic, especially coming from a old champion that has had them since from 2010.

Here's a video into what the animation and sounds used to be. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Xy9E5ghSMz8

This is so true, I have played Akali since S1 also and I really miss the old passive sound trigger and animation, I guess its because it has been there for like 3 years which made me attached to it.

Akali as a champion wasn't that visually appealing so you are right that removing Visual/Sound effects off her really downgraded the overall champion thematic.

they should remove the glow from her kamas and rewokr her into something less toxic (suck till 6 ad then eat everything because rito logic )

I agree, she has had those since release and it make it sound cool at the start of the match.

I think they plan to update her splash art (and hopefully VU) sometime in the nearby feature. Lord knows it's Akali's turn for an update I don't think she is a priority but she is on their list, actually Silver was working on her a few months ago now that I remember.

So they might do something different with her passive/sound effects in the update.
