Hextech Jarvan walk animation

The hextech Jarvan walk animation makes it look like he can barely hold up the weight of his own head. He is just hunching so far forward and it looks very awkward.

not sure which board to put this in, sorry if there is a better spot than general

J4 has been getting a big head lately as he dominates most games so I guess it makes sense that it spilled over into his hextech skin.

they updated a variety of champions walk cycles (namely those with leaning) like lee sin, lux, shen, twisted fate in an effort to make their hitboxes fairer in that they would match their model's position.

The issue is this wasn't tested enough so they look very awkward and cheap and weird. Like the champions got sticks up their backs.

Have you seen Ezreal walk since his "rework"?

I think it will be revealed later in lore that Ryze and Ezreal have been replaced by shapeshifters of Zac's species.

maybe its not so much that his walk animation looks any different than his other skins, but something about his head in the hextech skin looks too big or too far forward or something
