Inquisitor Nautilus and Inquisitor Sivir have been changed to Warden Nautilus and Warden Sivir. Why? Inquisitor sounded awesome and fit the theme of the skins nicely.

"Sorry this is happening so last minute (we’ve been swamped lately) but we’re changing the names of Inquisitor Nautilus and Inquisitor Sivir to Warden Nautilus and Warden Sivir. We want these skins to feel imposing/foreboding when you play them and we think these names capture that fantasy more strongly than the previous ones. Again, sorry this is so last minute. Appreciate all the feedback!"

Wrong. Inquisitor sounds better than Warden by a long shot. I'm curious as to why these skin name changes keep happening last minute, seemingly for the worse (Dauntless Ahri)

Anyway, I think the skins are great, but Warden just doesn't do it justice

Inquisitor

Apparently they thought "warden" sounds more intimidating than "inquisitor."

Pssh! When I hear inquisitor, I think of "Spanish Inquisition," I think of "Sith Inquisitor," I think of an interrogation/torture expert. With warden, the first thing I think of is the warden from "My Name is Earl."

Inquisitor makes me think of tall, forbidding judges sitting on their throne and raining fiery divine judgement on all those who oppose their values.

Wardens remind me of prison wardens and school wardens.

Horrible change.

What is the deal with Riot randomly making skin names sound so derpy? Dauntless Ahri, Arbiter Vel'koz, and now the Inquisitor pair? Seriously?

Do you breathe? cause seriously it's pretty easy to say Warden Nautilus, that is if you are putting the space between the word when saying them ;)

While I am ok with warden, Isn't Thresh already a warden? I like Inquisitor just as much as warden otherwise.

Inquisitor does sound cooler, I agree, but in the end the skin appearance is all that really matters to me. But again, I do agree
