Her face looks.....old. Like she's some aunt in her 40's or 50's
and her hair looks like it took a spin cycle in the dryer.
I think you guys could have been a bit more original with her hair, similar to how you guys changed heartseeker ashe's hair to look elegant
this sona looks like a lonely old lady tryharding in a dress.
GreenLore5 votesIf you think thats what 40/50-year old women look like then you have clearly never seen any woman of that age.
She probably looks a bit older to you because of the white hair.

looks more like a very light purple-ish to me also it's more along of the facial structure, skinny and dry looking, not sona's usual plumpiness
OverpoweredSoap3 votesShe looks fine imo.
We barely even see her face anyways, and it's not even that bad.
They're probably going for a more, poofy fru fru make up look anyways.
PixTron3 votesWell I'm sorry that you're so offended that a new skin came out.
Meanwhile the rest of us are gonna spend 975 RP and enjoy the skin.
Go back to reddit, m8.
Pika3102 votesI sure as hell ain't buying it. Why would I waste money on a character that can't even be played in-game?
Reaper Soraka1 votesDon't think I'll be buying it. It's great aside from the hair, which I just think looks horrible. It doesn't look like Sona's hairstyle to me.
Catastrop2 votesThis is the pre-release, it can still change.
Vistha Kai4 votesPuh-lease.
This is Riot we are talking about.
People had to bitch two weeks day and night for Riot to do something about Fiora having Taric's face and they still barely changed it.
Catastrop2 votesI was just trying to give him some false hope instead of no hope at all.

Speaking as someone who bitched longer and louder than most people at the time concerning Fiora's VU on my main, I'm mostly satisfied with Riot's "fixing" of the splash art. I don't really give a shit about the faces of the models personally, since you can barely see those in-game anyway.
Vistha Kai1 votesDid you now? I had two threads on main for quite some time.
Yes, it did improve a lot, but... could be better regardless.

Sure, they could have not changed anything since she didn't need a visual update at all, but expecting them to outright revert it was unrealistic (not unreasonable though, they were the unreasonable ones).
Vistha Kai2 votesUnrealistic? Using word "unrealistic" when describing an activity means it can't be done under any circumstance.
If anything it was unrealistic, because Riot will never admit a fuck-up and rethink their decision, regardless of how bad it wouldn't be.

Right, that's what made it unrealistic, glad to know you agree.
Vistha Kai2 votesThat doesn't mean you should just wave it aside.
Pika3101 votesPeople had to bitch for literally months after 4.13 for Rito to do something about Arcade Sona looking like trash and then some. Matter of fact when compared to pre-4.13, all her skins look like crap in-game short of DJ, this new one including. I'm fairly certain Rito is doing this on purpose to make up for the fact DJ is underselling because they gutted the champ.
Vistha Kai2 votesThat's the essence of my comment you responded to.
They either do nothing or "fuck-off-we-listened-to-you-now-piss-off" much.
Big Lincoln2 votesshe has the face of a barbie doll
Ravenhale2 votesI actually like her hair style, but not the color. This does look like Sona some thirty to forty years after her wild Arcade/DJ days. Perhaps this is a subliminal message about Sona being retired from the Fields of Justice.
I do like all the hearts and auras.
Nagoh Shan2 votesMy issues with the skin are:
The two extra loops on the top make the hair look crazy and overly busy.
The upside-down heart on her top looks weird because Sona skins have lines that taper in from the top to a point lower, and the shoulder drape in this skin does as well, but the heart clashes with that line by giving a diamond line shape rather than a V line shape.
The heart should be disconnected from the collar and flipped so it has the same flow and styling as other Sona skins, and gives more immediate feedback with the Sona visual themes.
Pika3102 votesI'm more concerned with the fact the champ is completely unplayable, rather than the aesthetics. However, that's not to say it isn't an issue:

Disneylord1 votesWhat about Orianna, she is so horribly outdated that all of her new skins looks crap aswell
Apollo20021 votesI kinda agree I love her splash art she has nice long blonde hair with a little curl at the bottom and the light skin is nice but in game she is tan and her hair is a faded purple and its just huge curls and her auto attacks are yellow like hello why yellow and not pink this skin isnt worth getting
