Is this some dude from Dota or....?

Malicious Metal26 votes

Well he's a melee carry who rolls duo lane who gets a powerful ranged dps source at level six in form of a dragon as well as having great wave clear.

I think we all know who I'm talking about.

I miss old Ahri I bought she cause of that splash art

nightsharks22 votes

Why do people love the old Ahri art so much? I like both of them but I don't understand why some people are so passionately hateful towards the new one.

Blue Moon Wolf4 votes

I think it's cause if you look at the face, one has a more fox like, innocent look while the other looks more seductive and a more defined chin. I don't have a problem with the new one either, but I think I can see the differences that could cause people to not like it.

The only thing the new one improved was the quality of the splash - that's it. Everything else was a severe downgrade. The new one even changed her physical anatomy for God's sake.

nightsharks12 votes

I don't understand why everything else is a downgrade. Did you not like super fluffy tails, or a more seductive face? Is she not pretty? Less hair? What is it you don't like and why? This is what I can't understand.

Keevalroy8 votes

Alright let's pick this apart.

Did you not like super fluffy tails,

You mean the ones that look like matted carpets?

or a more seductive face?

That's seductive? How, in what way is that attractive? Also, what the hell is that growth on her chin, and since we're focusing on the face, she looks like she's about to sneeze... that's not very attractive.

Is she not pretty?

No, not anymore.

Less hair?

Too much. It does look better in the December version than it did in the October, however, what didn't change was that it's still a tangled mess.

What is it you don't like and why?

Look at her old pose - it gives off a graceful elegance and makes it seem like she's dancing away from something while the new one looks like she's falling in an awkward uncomfortable position.

Look at their faces, not only has she seemed to age 15-20 years and gone through a series of plastic surgery procedures, there looks to be enough makeup to make Keith Richards look like he's alive.

Look at the background. The original was in an Ionian forest, while this new one appears to be a dank, dark, swampy environment.

I mean, they forgot the bell and she had cat ears in the first update, but one great thing I can give them props for is at least she didn't have blue eyes. Holy shit that would have been terrible following the enraged response from her fanbase from how she was portrayed (completely wrong) in A New Dawn, which is what this splash seemed to be based off of.

The worst part about this was following the October splash being taken down and replaced with the original, there was rejoice that Riot registered that this didn't hit the mark they were expecting (surprise) and we had the one most of us supported instead. Two months later, twice the amount of time it apparently takes to create a new splash from scratch, _minimal _ modifications were made, and in the case of her face, it was even worse. But they sent it through anyway because of deadlines or something.

Thanks, I understand this whole thing a bit better now.

Still, I don't really get why people are so heated about it. Personally, I believe it further depicts her identity as a soul-sucking vampire fox. She looks darker, less cutesy. Like she'd steal your essence in a heartbeat. I like both splashes. The old one is more traditional, both in setting and style, and the new one has more detail and finesse.

there looks to be enough makeup to make Keith Richards look like he's alive.

^this made me laugh though. But she's really not wearing too much makeup, just eyeliner and mascara, and light eyeshadow.

Just some thoughts.

She evolved from a fox, so they kinda gave her features that slightly gave that resemblance, which they did a good job on, especially when you see her as a whole "A New Dawn".

The only thing people hate is that Fiora and Ahri aren't as hot as they used to be. Why the fuck does that matter. They wanted to make Fiora more of a duelist, they nailed it, and taking the hair out wasn't a bad idea initially, why would you want hair covering your eyes in combat when you are so centered around hitting vitals with accuracy.

Ahri evolved from a fucking fox, she's not even full human, so they made that more clear in her facial features, yeah, she's not AS beautiful (still is hot), but she does better reflect her actual lore, same with Fiora.

YCitizenSnipsY4 votes

You find Fiora's hair unrealistic because of limiting vision, in the same game that has a blindfolded monk flying around booting people.

Also there is noting wrong about people complaining about Ahri's face and how they feel it is a misrepresentation of an already well established character. You remember when the original J4 splash came out, everybody hated it purely because of the face, but let me guess they were all just complaining about their waifu to amirite.

Me2. there is no reason to change the old splash art idk why they would do that.

For some reason I kinda think that the new Fiora looks better, except for her new running animation and model...

I really honestly loved her old in-game model and splash Art. The newest one kinda make me want to...Uh....Not want to be a french woman anymore.

Slamurai Jack8 votes

I much prefer the new one. This one actually looks dangerous as opposed to the old one that looked like a model that just happened to pick up a rapier.

Princess Emma4 votes

I'd hit it either way. The only thing I regret is not playing Fiora before she got reworked.

Oh my god i had forgotten how horrible the old Cait was.

Jesus fucking christ, the left one looks like something you'd see straight out of the country. She looks like a fucking hick.

But on the right she looks like a famous stripper/bunny/hoe.

Tbh, MF is just one oversexualized POS champion.

They seriously need to reconsider her art... at least keep the old face...

I liked the old katarina splash better :|

I like the old Ahri more, like a lot of others :p I don't dislike the new one though, still pretty nice. But my initial reaction to this way "Wtf it's like Fiora went through puberty backwards while the rest went forwards and improved" xd

I might just be blind but honestly the only two that look different are Poppy and Ahri
