Yasuo is 28 at the oldest. Why does he look 42 in that art?

Why are his eyebrows so bushy? They're supposed to be long and straight.

Why is the tip of his nose so much deeper? It's supposed to be straight and slightly pointing forward at the end.

Why does he look so much more Asian overall? As an Asian character, he only looks slightly Asian. So why did the artist go overboard on Asian facial features? Does the artist know who Yasuo is? Did the artist AT LEAST look at what he actually looks like before drawing this false version of him? Why did this get OK'd? Does this prove that QA doesn't actually care about their job? Is there even QA for art?

42? That's a ridiculous assumption.... and his eyebrows look fucking fine, stop crying about pointless shit you'll likely never see again ever.

I don't think anyone was even thinking about what your thread says. You're just overreacting.

He just looks older, which he very well may be. And of course, a different artist. So are you going to just fault the artist for having a somewhat different take on an older, mentor Yasuo?

I can't understand how people can tell of ages when they see someone, and why specific 42 and not 41 or 43, i could never tell someone's age without asking him/her

I think the nose is way off and the rest could be fixed if they put the collar to its proper height. I'm not sure how many years have past since his splash's point in the timeline, but surely not 15-20 years.
