Why was Aether Wing Kayle made a RoboCop?

Her old skin was angelic, I am a big diablo player and it always reminded me of Tyrial so that is why I bought it. But since the update it has become trash, there are so many things wrong with it:

  1. they took the auto attack sound off (so what makes it an 1820 skin now?)
  2. her voice lines are about civilians being in lockdown and suspects not responding. why, why is she a cop now we have riot kayle. she also says something about being justicar, which she is not and mumbles something about resistance to rsm
  3. when she recalls her suit transforms into something mecha aatrox like, shes not a mecha
  4. she says returning for suit adjustments. its not a suit they are her wings, seriously wtf
  5. from level 10 down she doesnt look that bad but at 11 the extra wing chuncks just look clunky and bad, just give her back the blue "feathers"
  6. at 16 she goes full emo, from being a bright glowing skin to black with blue highlights, it runis the skin.

I know most of us have owned this skin for a long time, but its not the skin we bought at all, its also 500 RP atleast over priced now. Please just add back the AA sound, remove her dumb mecha recall. And fix her ascends after 10, give her the blue feathers and for the love of everything dont turn her black at 16. And remove all her dumb cop lines.

While I overall like the new Kayle aestetics I also am really disappointed by Aetherwing being turned from "I bring a vision of Utopea" to Space Police Department.

Honestly the new VO for this skin is awful, I don't even like using the skin because she just sounds way too edgy and like a robo cop and that's never how I imagined the skin.

Honestly how were they ever her wings? It's always looked like an exosuit.

Also it's already been confirmed that they will be adding a lot of animations and such back to it in the next patch or two.

I heard a VO interaction between Aether Wing Kayle and Gun Goddess Miss Fortune involving a "rap sheet". It seems like they're updating Aether Wing to be within the Steel Valkyries universe.

I just find it funny cause she already had a police style skin with Riot kayle.

The new Aether Wing VO is complete trash.

She's gone from being big on justice to being big on law, which are two different concepts as we see here. Now the AW skin is space police for some reason when the previous lore for the skin was way more interesting.

Nah, just the robo part was added.
