This looks way too "nintendo-like".
It should have been:
Bear: Looks similar to Tibbers or Volibear... Turtle: Looks similar to Rammus... Phoenix: Looks similar to Anivia... Tiger: Looks similar to (Nidalee cougar form or Rengar?)...
Thoughts?
Riotmoonstones5 votesIt's a cool idea in theory, but it becomes a bit of a grey area when it comes to gameplay. We wouldn't want players mistaking Udyr for someone else, especially when he's running into a lane to gank! :]
Thryale1 votesspeaking of grey areas. I've already, on numerous occasions, mistaken Maokai for Yorick.
Ever since Maokai's visual update, from a distance, his color scheme and overall profile looks like Yorick. I think it has something to do with mao looking like he's hunching over now...
Is this something ya'll are aware of? (I know my brother is getting tired of me asking him "is that yorick?" when I lean in to see who's playing when he's watching the LCS)

Which one has the lantern and two faces?
Doesn't seem that hard.
Thryale1 votesthey both have a similar profile when viewed at a distance. Both appear to be hunched forward. Combine that with the same grey/green/brown color scheme, and it can be hard to tell them apart until you seem them up close, or when they use their skills.
Flemman1 votesI would rather say yasuo and xin zhao if you talk about look alike champ
Being gank by a Yasuo and mistaken him for the friendly Xin, priceless ^^

I don't mean "exactly like" the other champion, but a similar costume idea. :) You would be able to tell the difference.
Dominnion3 votesI think it looks perfect how it is

GaleWinUnleashed2 votesBut he looks so squishy! It's an adorable skin.
EvilMerodach1 votesYeh...imagine if enemy team has a jungle Udyr and a top Volibear. Both mia, and a 'Volibear' comes running out of a brush at you. Is he going to stun you, or toss you backwards? The half second you have to figure that out might make the difference between you getting back to your tower or dying. (If Voli, you might want to run to the side, so he'll toss you sideways, other than straight back into enemy team, if Udyr, you might want to run straight back so you'll be stunned closer to your tower) Too much gameplay confusion.
