And yet one more thing that should stay preserved for Swain's rework

His hairstyle.

It's unique, but poweful, badass and characteristic. Many designers (often anime) do original hairstyles badly (fe. Yu-gi-oh or how is it written), but Swain is perfect.

It gives you this feeling that he has alot of experience, that he does not put much into his look, but still is pretty strict to the point he does at least something about it. Feels like a iconic, dictator-ish* hairstyle. It is one of those things that made me say "This dude, he's cool af, he knows what he's doing."

Or am I wrong?


*While I think Noxian political system is not absolutistic, I feel Swain would like himself to rule that way - although he obviously can't simply because of Darius.

That's probably more to do with that almost every hairstyle imaginable has been used in anime at this stage (though antagonists, side and the nobody characters tend to have more diverse hairstyles in this regard), so they're bound to be a lot of bad ones there too.

That said, Swain's hairstyle is indeed very iconic to his image. They should keep it. Or at least some form of it.

His splash art hairstyle is definitely fitting for the theme, but right now his model is rocking a purple mohawk.

Yeah, I'd say even the splash is shit compared to the first version they showed us :/

I think they should made him bald, or very short-haired like Tywin Lannister

If he was bald he'd be Singed 2.0, that was why they changed his features so much in the second version of his splash art update.

And no, because like Tywin Lannister - his hairstyle is unique and good unique. That would be the exact opposite.

Having two bald characters doesn't mean that they would be exactly the same. I mean, we have bald Ryze and he is not Singed 2.0

and, to be honest, I didn't understood your second statement.

Dude, Ryze is blue... Singed and Swain have both crooked nose and mouth covered.

The second statement is a ctitique of Swain being like someone, when we can only preserve something that's already his and is good, really good.
