Winter Wonder Orianna and her Poro Ball fellow ( please without the propeller thing on top!)

Hey guys, I have a question about the new upcoming skin for Orianna , which I 1st of all like the idea of very much in general, but where it comes down to one BIG disruption in the skin modell for the floating ball fellow of hers imo.

Why exactly did the designers decide to put a propeller on top of the floating poro ball ? It doens't make any sense for me, reminding that her standard skin modell ball doesn't have anything what makes it obviously that this thing flies around (or floats), nor that her others skins did need something like that to prove that it is able to float or fly around. And this is the great part of her as a champ. The answer, that poros can't fly doesn't count , because we have already a winter wonder lulu skin, where her poro simply seemed to be able to grow wings. So why don't make a winged poro ball for Orianna as well as a better suggestion. (would be better than the propeller thing so far) Or simply remove the propeller thing away and make everyone happy!

Its not meant negative but I know that the designers can do better with this one, because I've been waiting for a good Orianna skin which I personally would want to own for a long long time now, and I love the winter themed skins especially! So please Riot Designers read this post and maybe rethink your design idea for the floating poro ball, because everyone I was already talking to about this disrupting thing on top of this ball had the same opinion. It doesn't belong there and it doesn't fit either her theme nor the winter itself at all.

And It messes up the first 2 animations where Oriannas head e.g. stuck between the propeller blades (2nd animation) when leaning on the ball. Or simply makes me think, how would she be able to lay down (1st animation) on a still rotating propeller and get pushed back up from it (while rotating).

the ball isn't a real poro either so it really don't need it, i don't like it too i think it looks silly but not the good silly one. :/ it remind me of the hat with this kind of plastic thing on it who looks like that, and honestly this is just plain silly not funny silly.

As much as i love orianna i think her skin is a little light compared to the other winter skin of this years. If they want to add something i would go with cute mecanichal wings, i think something along the manga Clover from clamp.

"Or simply remove the propeller thing away and make everyone happy!"

That wouldn't make me happy. I like the propeller cause its super cute. Its fun and playful.

If they were to put wings on the poro that would effect the balls shape i think. Also its not a real poro its like mechanical, so propellers make more sense.
