Instead of having him physically run like he does with homeguards...make him do the same floating/flying animation that he does already each time he picks up those chimes. I just feel that's better in the contextual and relevancy of his personality.
Agree? Yes No?
I was surprised about this myself - I assumed his floaty/serpentine movement was linked to speed buffs.
I thought his more exaggerated waddle was the greatest XD But now that you mention it, it would look pretty cool to do the flying with homeguards.
I agree with this very much.
best homeguard animation has to go to twitch, as he runs an all fours
yeah he should fly when his ms is buffed substantially , like most new champions who have haste animations.
it's called a "haste" running animation...
I mean, Vel'Koz does this when he's sped up by Nami or Homeguards... why not Bard?
He should ride out on a sleigh.
Well, he does have a special homeguard (haste) animation, he bounces :3
When getting mobility boots, you don't fly :c
wow you guys have actually upvoted my post ! this my be the first time i see upvotes on my post and I'm glad nobody said anything bad ! Well in any cas, glad you all seem to agree that he would have a more fitting haste animation by flying, and also to show a bit of the same flying skills as in the cartoon video they made and like i said, each time he picks up a chime he flyss, so he should fly out of base to help protect people, not bounce around ALTHOUGH a little funny not gonna lie.
Some champions have special homeguard haste animations. For example, Heimer has a rocket haste animation that only works with homeguards. You can't pop Shurelya's near him and get that animation. Correct me if I'm wrong here, haven't played Heim in a while. I'm pretty sure there are others like this (Twitch maybe?)
I'm guessing they wanted collecting chimes to be more rewarding and cool looking, as its the only thing that gives Bard that particular haste animation.
My guess is that the movementspeed he gets from his chimes goes away when he enters combat and they probably wanted to visually clarify that. However homeguards and mobility boots also disappear when you enter combat. So conclusion: floaty animation for movement speed buffs that disappears when in combat would be ann alright change.
I totally agree. As silly as it may sound, after seeing him fly in the video on youtube i was hoping to see more of it in the game play.
