I remember a while ago how you (or someone else on the Riot team, can't remember) wanted to make a Champion who basically emulated Komachi Onozuka from Touhou Project, but the design failed to pan out.
Doesn't mean you stop trying, right? I'd certainly love to see Riot bring out a hot scythe-wielding chick with an "imposing figure". XD
Anybody want to contribute some ideas?
Luner Hunter3 votesbesides "YES PLEASE" i have nothing else to contribute...
I lied...
Okay!
darkdill1 votes Ok.
watbesh1 votesI'm sure her concept was recycled for 
. I think they can make a skin for him based on her another concept which can go with a scythe-girl, though.
Linna Excel1 votesI'd like a scythe-girl but I've got the feeling that if that design was going to be done, it would have been done by now since so many people have asked for it.
darkdill1 votesMaybe they're trying to release other stuff first like the SR VU.
Linna Excel1 votesDifferent teams do different things. The new champ team isn't responsible for the SR VU.
darkdill1 votesThen they were doing Braum and Gnar first, and probably other Champions down the pipe (i.e. Ao Shin).
Conncept1 votesI see nothing whatsoever imposing about an unathletic bimbo with a weapon she most likely can't lift let alone use in combat.
darkdill1 votesSomeone needs to suspend their disbelief.
Conncept1 votesSome people need to learn that good, strong, pleasing character design always has a foot in reality. Riven's sword for example, is enormous, heck even Tryndameres sword would be too big for him and he's more than twice Riven's size. But I've never heard anyone say a thing about either of them, because both characters are clearly in pinnacle physical form, and so the suspension of disbelief fits. What those characters are is capable of doing what they do, in the universe in which they are found, regardless of real life.
It does not fit on this balloon chested spaghetti limbed wannabe, unless every other strong character was also like that. But then if that were true, the overall design of the character lineup would fall in to repetition, monotony, and be completely visually uninteresting. Why do you think anime is still a niche genre anywhere outside asia? Because of horrible character designs like that.
darkdill1 votesAnd yet MF can hold her guns effortlessly? She hardly looks like she in "pinnacle physical form".
Conncept1 votesMFs guns are a perfectly normal size on her splash, the developers have stated hundreds of times that the models do not represent actual proportions. Quit grasping at straws.
And even disregarding that fact, unlike the character above, MF has muscle definition, not skin-colored tubes that bend. Have you ever even held a gun? Even the largest pistols are not that heavy, me and my brothers used to have contests shooting long-barreled shotguns one-handed.
darkdill1 votesOkay, then how about this: Why are you treating the above as a finalized splash art? It's simply meant to be used for REFERENCE.
Conncept1 votesI'm not assuming anything. The OP stated that he wanted an imposing female figure as depicted in that reference, except in the universe of LoL (or in most fiction outside anime) what is depicted in that reference is not an imposing figure. If that is the canon he is expecting for the character, as has been carried to the two other characters inspired by this universe, then his expectations won't be met. The character would have to be changed a lot more than the previous two were or, the less likely outcome, it would implemented as is and look unfitting alongside the existing champion roster.
darkdill2 votesYou do realize that I am the OP, right?
And I'm open to having the image changed. I just can't draw. Riot could use it as a starting point and add in some muscle if they need to.
