Heels on Championship Shyvana, Support ticket response, and reply.
Decide it was probably better to move this discussion here since the old boards will be made obsolete soon. Original thread here: http://forums.na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=4904076
I posted a thread on general discussion about the design of Championship Shyvana and while the skin for me at least so far is just fine, the heels on the skin are very out of place, so I wanted to submit some feedback to the Art Team about the design of the skin

My original Ticket response To the Skin design team and Art team at Riot games http://forums.na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=4894927 There is a thread here on the forums about the addition of heels in the new Shyvana skin.
There is an overwhelmingly positive agreement that the character shouldn't be wearing heels as it does not fit the character herself. It's really out of place for the type of character that Shyvana is, personality and design wise. Honestly speaking the wedge heels Shyvana is wearing in her Ice drake skin are very odd and seemingly out of place for her character design. I would like to suggest that You do not use heels as part of her footwear in the championship skin, and I want to request that the designers keep Ice Drake as Shyvana's "feminine"/"pretty" skin.
On a personal level, Shyvana is my favorite Champion in the game, and she is honestly the only reason I keep playing this game. She's a fantastic character and is easily a fantastic example of how to create interesting and fun female characters. I would hope that Riot would maintain the amazing character you've created. I'm quite thankful for her existence. If there was one favor I could ask of Riot, is to create some awesome more practical footwear for my favorite champion and her next fantastic skin. I would be very grateful
Thank you for lending an ear.
This was the reply I got to the ticket I sent in about the issue I would like to get changed.
