@IronStylus Soraka's Goat Feet

I know Soraka was one of the first champs who got a VU under the new setup. Speaking of which I do like her new look compared to the old one.

However I'm curious why you decided to keep her goat feet. That's the only part about her that seems weird and is often ridiculed about her. Well, that and her slow attack animation. Is there any point where a visual feature can be slated for removal?

I play her a lot and bringing attention to her feet only seems to remind me of how bloody slow of a champ she is. She runs about as fast as a lethargic turtle so that's not an area I'd personally want to visually call attention to.

If she ever gets another VU, is there a chance her goat feet will go bye-bye or be left for a traditional skin?

PS. Pool Party Divine Soraka (in a dark blue one piece). You've got at least 1 buyer if you guys decide to go that route.

I don't really think he was going for 'goat feet' per-se, but more so a unicorn perhaps? I feel it'd explain the horn better. Anyway, I don't think they'd ever get right of raka's feet. It's one of the things that makes her really unique. To be honest, I think it's a pretty cool, and, not to suck up to riot, but I think they did a great job with the VU. The animations are nice, and even in game Soraka has small thing about her that really make her stand out. Anyway, seeing that she looks a helluva lot better than about 45% of the champs right now, I don't think another rework is going to come up for a long time; sorry to disappoint.

TL;DR - she looks fine. Appreciate the things that make her different instead of complain about them.
