If Tyrant looks as good in game as it does in the splash art I'm going to have to get some more RP...

Green particles and custom recall. All the wings on the skins (with the exception of bildgewater) change too. He also has the "Man in helm" voicechange

Remember, if you don't like Riot gutting its iconic characters, you can pay them money to pretend they didn't.

I don't know why this is downvoted, when it's painfully true - especially in Swain's case, where something as highly iconic as his bird transformation is now a feature only his most expensive skin has.

True words! Not only iconic but I would add, fundamental to his character! The sad part is I already own tyrant swain, however this update is a disappointment in my book as it resembles a goofy Veigar instead of the grandeur it embodied previously.

This brings up an interesting point, when Riot literally takes away something you paid for, do we as customers have any legal grounds to receive a refund?

The pirate one is incredible but... that's swain? the heavily seasoned strategist warlock? it looks more like a pirate of the Caribbean knock off who spends more time at the gym than sailing OR strategizing OR warlock-ing

More of the art team turning characters into chipndales dancers.. its almost like their art team employs an abnormally high number of homosexuals.

Come on, now. You're a bit tunnel visioned, because women do art too, and they can just as easily want man candy to look at, just like gay guys.

Gangplank doesn't look that smart either, and he looks a little like a stubborn idiot, but he is an expert tactician and expert at physical and psychological warfare. The same logic can be applied to Bilgewater Swain.

You say that as if the broad shoulders on classic would suggest he had a rather "bird-chest" and no muscle definition.

He may be a strategist, but he's a strategist that fights on the frontlines with his men, so he still has to keep up with physical fitness.

I don't think its his hair. I think its the missing lower face mask.

I'll play his Classic, Overall I think Swain's new Appearance is top-notch. I usually play with Classic Skins despite owning skins on certain champions like Sion (Even though I have all his skins, I play mostly on Classic or Warmonger) & occassionally Warwick Urgot Evelynn . For Swain, I'll honestly play Classic or pick-up Bilgewater. They both look amazing to me.

Holy shit northern front looks like King Bradley

Skorch1 votes

Bildgewater does not have new particles I believe, new birds though.

I wanted Classic Swain to have a beard like Reinhardt's. Sadly, Classic doesn't have a beard, but Northern Front does, and I like that.

I like how most people don't realize that Swain still has the same balding hair pattern. Like, yes is hair is longer, but he still has spots that are balding. It just means he didn't cut it down that far.
