Aging annie (ultimate skin)

All Day Tay Tay··32 votes·5,072 views

Next ultimate skin should be for annie, and every level, she grows up a little. Ive been told that she is about 8 years old, so start there, and every level add 1. Level 18 she would be 25? We can even have stages like when shes 6 she would be 13 so give her a goth stage (i know she has a goth skin but its just a skin no vo), but then 1 level later do a 180 and shes super sunshine girly. This skins thing that makes it ultimate over all other skins would be the dialogue. DJ sona has supposedly 3 hours of music. PF ez has the evolutions when he upgrades his ult, and SG udyr changes his skills when they are maxed. Annie in this case would have lots of quotes, because of the different lines and voices she would have over the years (levels).

If someone could submit some concept art that would be appreciated. A lot of people have assumed that this would be a sexual thing, but i am not looking for this. I did some thinking of exactly how i would change her with her looking recognizable, and i think the best way is her dress. Annies dress is something i associate with her, so keep this and tibbers (obviously). I dont need a picture of every level (age), maybe just level 6,11,16 (as this might be what the end result would come to. lots of people have said that having 18 models in one skin would be a lot of work, and i do agree, although i do think it is do-able). If you need an example of what i mean with her dress, look at queen ashe. It is the closest thing i can think of as to what i mean.

Unfortunately, I doubt they would be willing to do it. If they did, they would probably need to create a different skin texture/wireframe and appropriate animations for each level. In addition, each line would have to be recorded by several voice actors to properly reflect her current age.

Though, they might be willing to do several distinct ages for Annie. Perhaps 1-10 is child Annie, 11-15 is teen Annie, and 16-18 is adult Annie.

Thats why it would be an ultimate skin. You realize udyr has 5 different textures on all skins (more on SG udyr). His default, then 1 for each stance. If a base skin/all the cheaper skins can have 5, then having an ultimate with 18 wouldnt be a giant leap. I mentioned DJ sona had 3 hours of music/sound effects, and you dont think that was a lot of work? That too has multiple textures

Are you kidding? Annie was riot's first champion that's they basically refuse to nerf her because they lover her to death. She's probably their next idea for an ultimate skin and i can see them doing it.

Annie's theme is being a little girl. Why the need for her to grow up? I think that's because you want to see teenager and adult annie. Why oh male one would you want that? Kind of disturbing.

The fact you thought that first is pretty much either projecting or sexism, either way it is rude and just generally annoying, besides though the whole being a loli thing is annies theme, her ult skin being something along the lines of an older version of herself is just so perfect 'because' of that.

He/she/etc probably didn't think that first. He/she/etc probably noticed the very large collection of Annie themed hentai (and lulu, and tristana, and poppy) which is all over the sites that feature lol hentai. It's disgusting, and yes, it exists. It doesn't matter if you think adult loli girls are cute. Riot's people have said it's not going to happen, it's really creepy and disgusting, and if you want to prove otherwise, then go create a picture of adult annie without making it creepy and disgusting so that the rest of us can sleep better at night.

not really into the loli hentai thing. while i do think that annies theme is cute, all that really happened was i was brainstorming some ideas and this one came into mind and i tried to run with it. I got what i put in the discription and was mostly putting it here for thoughts/ideas. trust me, if i wanted some creepy porn/hentai, i would go find the free stuff, not pay 20$ (or whatever 3250 rp adds up to) for a skin that only shows me this "adult loli" (i dont know if thats even an accurate way of saying it) for like 10 minutes. A lot of people commenting have done this chart, like Annie -> Katarina -> Shyvana (thank you DragonslayerFizz), which i think is a good representation of what i am looking for. obviously i dont want her to look EXACTLY like shyvana or katarina, but that is along the lines of it. I dont believe they are too sexualized (i know they both have visible cleavage), but i imagine an adult annie having a long dress like she does now. I am not a artist, so i couldnt really give you a picture of my idea, and you are correct that looking for "adult annie" does bring a lot of sexualized pictures which is, again, not what i am looking for. I do believe it to be possible to make a adult annie w/o her being sexualized. Kayle Karma Irelia all look very nice w/o being sexualized. i do know that irelia has her frostblade skin that does have the "booty" that many people will point out, and karma does have the little slit in her dress that shows some leg, but really this isnt too bad. I definitely would not want adult annie to look like Ahri Evelynn MissFortune as they are very sexualized. I would say that the best example i can give would be Ashe queen skin. It has the nice long dress that i associate with annies model. I would say to think of that when thinking of an adult annie

I don't think growing up is a worse theme...

Morello has already said somewhere (I'm not looking it up because lazy) that a Teen Annie would never happen. Stop asking for it.

I'm all down for it if you make annie an old lady.

Um. You mean make a new model/skin for each level, along with new VO for each stage, Animations, and particle effects etc.

Look neat idea but that would be well. Really fucking expensive to make.

All ultimate skins have very complex pieces. as i mentioned, dj sona has 3 hours of music, pf ez evolves through the game.

I think the biggest problem with this idea would be readability at later levels. One thing Riot has to keep in mind with making skins is that they look like the original champion enough that it's easily recognized and there's minimal confusion. Changing Annie's model to the point where she ages would make it difficult to recognize the champion as Annie in the game.

All Day Tay Tay2 votes

her bear is a good indicator, plus her fire. Annie can still be recognizable as she ages

I don't buy a lot of RP, but if they made this happen I would run to the store and buy some. Annie ...Katarina ...MissFortune ...Vi

Another problem... dialogue would have to change for each level (dunno if anybody else mentioned this, to lazy to read down :P) other than that, I love it

All Day Tay Tay1 votes

Actually, i mentioned this in the description as the thing that makes this skin special. I mentioned that DJ sona has 3 hours of music, and this skin would have an equivalent amount of work on the voice acting.

A good skin idea but a very difficult one to pull off. I hope Riot can get it done right.

I agree that I want to see Annie get a Ultimate Skin this year, but maybe not the growing up thing. I would be crzy happy to see what they came up with. Her win rate in LCS has been good for awhile now, she needs that skin baby :D

youngjake931 votes

Wouldn't you actually be nerfing yourself by picking this skin that makes it easier for you to get hit by skillshots in the late-game?

Count Buffon1 votes

I think it's better if she starts at 1 and levels up to 18, so the levels are easy to interpret. An actual baby form would be hilarious.

Also, with mathematical slider bars, they could model age "keyframes" where the overall geometry changes significantly and have smooth transitions in between. I'm sure it's a technical challenge, but it should be possible. Obviously this is ultimate skin territory here.

I had the same idea myself and Googled, and this was the most recent thread that came up. Teen Annie has been a fan favorite for a long time, but an actual 1-18 journey (or 8-25) doesn't come up as often.
