Walk/Run Animations
I think Riot does a great job with diverse walk animations with champions. At least for me, it can be a big factor as to whether I actually play a champion or not.
I noticed this while watching a video of Trundle and realized I really love his walk animation. He lumbers around like an ape holding his club, I love it. However I don't like the "way it feels" while playing him personally. Idk. It's nothing against him as a champion at all, just a preference kind of thing.
Where as a champion like Camille for me has a walk animation that I love to see and love to actively play as. It's this strict yet sassy strut and reminds me of model on a runway. When listening to House music her walk goes really well with it.
I think there are a lot of champions new and old with really great walk/run animations and it makes them feel so much more "alive".
When Luc gets his speed boost and runs like an anime character, that is one of my favorite things in this game. Z
He has this weird janky walk that makes sense since his legs are sticks. It's kinda silly but irl it would be terrifying.
Love his derpy walk
I don't play Akali but I love the way she runs with her blades at her sides, looks so ready to kill. I hope they keep a similar run for her remake.
There's just something so great about his walk. He walks like a man on a mission
Is my main and I actually don't like her walk animation with her base skin. I do like it on all her other skins though, especially on Secret Agent MF.
Hate it or love it - Rakan's strutting is pretty iconic in the League roster.
Most recently with Zoe - she has some of the coolest walking animations in the game and its cool that you can even toggle them to switch which ones she does. I love her Jump Rope walk.
I always liked Elise's weird prancey-walk she does. It looks as unnatural as she is and I think it works really well.
