Poking Fun at the Strange Direction of Champion Splash Art
Disclaimer: I love 98 percent of the splashes and have spent a lot of money on the sweet 20 seconds I get to look at them before every game. Some characters I have even decided to learn to play solely because they had a cool splash. But....
I've noticed some odd things in the last year with some of the splashes. I used to like the original Sivir splash but then Riot decided they wanted to make her look a little less girly and little more buck-toothed spider.
Then they decided Dreadknight Garen's head was much too proportional so they wanted to give him an extra tiny head (I am going to be really upset if China got the NA Dreadknight Garen in exchange).
Meanwhile Silver Fang Akali only looks good in the Chinese region. (We'll trade you back tiny head Garen for her.)
And please say a prayer for poor original Nasus who does not have a neck but rather his head is attached to his chest.
Quick hits: -Why does soccer goalie blitzcrank have to dive for the ball when he has a go-go gadget arm? -Officer Caitlyn's nose is big -Spectacular Sivir is an ironic name for the artwork on that splash. -It was amusing to see Volibear as a Brown bear for a skin idea... three times in a row! -Volibear basically gets a new hat every time they make him a skin. Meanwhile, Tibbers is a sidekick and has appeared as a rocket panda, Frankenstein, dressed as a women, dressed in a suit, and dressed as a bunny. -Orianna's new splash is one of my favorites to be honest. She is one of the rare champs they has gotten 3 goth skins. -Syndra is apparently blind or has strange tastes in giant helmets. Outside of her original skin, her other iterations blindfold her.
