Mf's new lore really made me quite sad

Sexy Jack Rabbit··69 votes·3,098 views

It's depressing with how much effort they put into MF's lore and making her a fleshed out character. With Burning tides, her short video, her new comic, so much is being done to make her SUCH a badass and awesome character in the lore area.

She still remains with a really shit VO from a bygone time that just makes her seem like a, lack for a better words, slut.

She's a character who imo could get a much better treatment then what she's gotten over the years.

It's ironic even that even though she hates perverts every skin she has save for like 1 or 2 looks like they've been made by perverts.

I was just thinking this last night.

Burning tides should have made captain fortune her default skin, made the original legacy content (like GP) and changed her default VO.

I have no idea why riot passed it up..

Because then they wouldn't have been able to sell Captain Miss Fortune as a separate skin. This exact thing was suggested many times during her rework and Riot either went silent whenever it was brought up or gave some half-baked excuse.

Don't know why this is downvoted, it's true. Riot was already generous giving us a GP skin, so they weren't gonna give us 2 at the same time. And who was really so in love with old MF that they would've bought her current visuals during the event when the sales and content was being hyped up to begin with?

What they should have done was make it a legendary and give her a new VO to match the event.

I think they wanted to do this, but then didn't go through with it (making Captain MF a skin instead) because MF is one of the iconic champions of League (she on a lot of the wall papers, etc.)

Could be the case, makes some sense. GP ,though , just so happens to be in a lot of those posters with her too.

Captain MissFortune is the best and most used skin by me.

And im a heterosexual 23 Years old male lol.

isn't that supposed to reinforce my point? lots of sjws are male, they are usually called white knights tho.

Tokogawaruf11 votes

just stated that I, as male, enjoy Captain MissFortune more.

It fits her Badass Theme more, which i love, also like Illaoi out of the same reason. I really wished she´ll get a VO to fit said theme.

cocacolalips1 votes

yes but your gender and your sexuality are irrelevant to the comment you are making, unless you are led to believe sjws are homosexual girls for some reason and you believe it adds weight to your comment as a form of counter argument.

why not just say "I like captain miss fortune I think it's badass" or "I like captain miss fortune and I'm not a sjw"?

She has a lot of bad ass skins, I wanna see Special Forces Miss Fortune now. She seems to appear in GP's Special Forces skin on the left jumping down with him.

that's more like a mattar of personal taste, imo think the skin is badass, although imo, the concept design is better than the in game model so much better: idk why (maybe is the angle)

Also you say peopple who like it are sjw, but this skin shows so much boobs just as her default model, so idk why you make that comment

It shows just as much boob, but it feels more like an outfit It feels like something that somebody would wear Compare it to this http://img04.deviantart.net/d86d/i/2014/355/a/a/riot_contest_miss_fortune_by_dmitrygrebenkov-d8ad2f2.jpg The Miss Fortune listed above looks like the one that pirates bring along because she looks nice and wears a skimpy outfit. The new one keeps her seductiveness by showing cleavage, but contrasts that with her cleavage while not sacrificing her dignity. She looks like a captain, and a charismatic one at that.

MF holds a bloody tavern frequented by the worst scum you can expect from a pirate island (mafia, factions, pickpockets, thugs, mercenaries, thieves, prostitutes, assassins, gunmen), her outfit is the one of a wench, a common girl at the time, an outfit she would wear 90% of the time when she isn't hunting bounties.

Her captain outfit isn't something she would wear outside of official ceremonies of sorts and maybe other important expeditions across the see when she is aboard her ship.

Elipo1 votes

I think you didn't get my point, I like her more as Captain Fortune. I like more the concept design for Captain Fortune more than the in game model of Captain Fortune, that's what I meant.

I made a petition for that a while ago. No rioter commented feels bad

Elipo1 votes

ikr? Btw, has captain fortune appeared in the early sales? is that the kind of skin that from time to time appears w 50% discount? I've never ever gotten ger in my shop, I've gotten like 3 of her skins in the shop but captain fortune evades me, rip.

I like how she wants to prove she's nothing like Gangplank and yet to rule Bilgewater she needs to be EXACTLY like Gangplank

also she has a video?

You know what else would be cool? Gangplank's return. The only reason I read the comic is me anticipating it... i cri

Its a "poorly" animated video, done more like sketches. Its still pretty dope imo, can prob check it out on her Universe/Lore page.

I’m honestly asking this question, what about her VO is slutty? There’s some innuendo, but parts of it have her as likely to shoot you and go on some adventure. She’s more like Fujiko Mine to me.

Ahri is more sexual imo, but both versions of her lore involve her having more of a serious personality with some darkness.

I find people’s definition of slut to be worrying, and this is me in support of a VO update.

Sugar Momma8 votes

I love MissFortune and she's my favorite (and basically only ADC).

That said, I hope they keep her "slutiness" (for lack of a better word) because it is what makes her character. What's funny about it and makes her so cool is that if you read her lore you know she is not just a slut - She deliberately uses it to accomplish her mission. Which I think is pretty badass.

Elipo3 votes

flirtyness is better imo, Evelynn is sluty but MF is just flirty

Jet Sett7 votes

Yeah it's kind of weird that the whole time it was just an act, but then her VO doesn't reflect her true self the way you would have expected after the event.

Monsta Moo7 votes

Not really agreeing with everything here at all ,but MF deserves a new VO for sure. [sg-miss-fortune]

Captain Miss fortune is the default skin in my mind.

Riot just needs to give her a Legendary skin lol. I'm glad she's getting notice on the boards maybe they will consider it now. [sg-miss-fortune] legendary MF dread nova skin and League of Legend has me for life

Velasan5 votes

Well, what you're saying is true, but a couple of things.

First, I thought Miss Fortune was supposed to be a lady of feminine wiles and mystery? I don't think she would hide it, and in the stories she certainly didn't. In the same way it was weird that Sejuani wore a bikini at one point it would be a little strange if the sultry pirate captain made extra effort to conceal every part of her with clothing. I don't think she would care about what people think of her in that sense.

On another point the new stories are making her seem a lot more... evil... than her previous incarnation. She is basically gangplank 2.0, just as a lady.

I cant wait for MF's splash arts update. It was pushed back because all the new reworks including Eve. Hopefully they will do her character justice.

Fun Fact, girls and women don't want to play captain fortune more than they want to play diana or riven or caitlyn, aka never. girls and women want to play girly and pretty champion like lux or morgana or the default miss fortune. captain miss fortune is even more of a male fantasy than the default miss fortune is, so you can keep your prejudices and other insults to yourself.

Sexy Jack Rabbit22 votes

You're clearly one of those keyboard warriors. So I'm only gonna say this once. I didn't insult anyone. Just made an observation. All of MF's skin save for like 1 or 2 are very sexual in nature. It's fair to key this to the skins being made by perverts.

It's never a good idea to generalize. Because by going off of your judgment all guys and men would want to play the same kind of characters but they don't. Girls and Women like all kinds of champions, just like males do.

A great example is 여최미, who is a Korean challenger player who mains Anivia and Aurelion Sol. Neither of which are considered 'girly' or 'pretty' by tonnes of different standards.

Now take your close-minded bs back to tumblr or reddit or whatever. I'm not interested in talking to you any further

Thanks for speaking on behalf of **every **girl ever in the world! Moreso thank you, since you aren't even a girl yourself!

cocacolalips2 votes

it's a generality, not the universal truth, if I say girls have long hair and big boobs, I'm also making a generality, and it's still partially true. maybe you have short hair and small boobs, but most girls don't.

LunSeiSleidee5 votes

And because it's a generalization that includes only a limited part of the whole group, it's not a good idea to use it.

Just like the example you brought.

cocacolalips1 votes

Generality = majority

Generalities motivate every decision ever made ever, from laws, to economy, to education, to business, to day to day life, everything, Riot is a business, it makes decisions to appeal to as many players as possible, if the majority of girls like girly and pretty champions, riot is going to make girly and pretty champions whether you like it or not.

LunSeiSleidee8 votes

And how did you arbitrarly decide what the majority of women wants?

It's as arbitrary as you deciding that the majority of women have big boobs and long hair.

Perhaps you decided you want to consider that's the majority only because it's what YOU want.

cocacolalips2 votes

rofl, I don't decide anything, it's just data. people are paid to ask ppl what they want with survey and stuff and to track trends, habits and what not, those people then sell that information to advertising and business companies, and then those companies sell you what you want.

LunSeiSleidee7 votes

Yeah, data you're conveniently pulling out of your.....

Nevermind.

There's gonna be a long line of small-breasted women who disagree with, "Most girls have big boobs."

cocacolalips2 votes

there is nothing to agree or disagree about, it's a generality, it's like me saying the grass is green, it's not always green, sometimes it's yellow and sometimes it's brown, but the majority of the time it's green, and it's factually accepted by everyone that the grass is green because it's factually true.

IamHuuVan3 votes

Not most girls have big boobs, have you ever met the girls from other countries or races? Or you are just a kind of watching them on TV and internet and don't have any experience of the girls then conclude the majority? Let me tell you, the generality has medium and small boobs, not big, not even as big as MF's. Think again before commenting.

I always wonder why some men feel entitled to talk about "that women like". Like, you are not female and this is clearly a preference. Some female like playing Lux and Sona, some female prefer champion like Leona or Diana, some female just play the champion they enjoy the most. What in the hell is the whole "champion/role shaming" for the female players?

I mean, Riot is trying to apply to different group of interest as well. Do you really think the Star Guardian Skin sells so well, 'cause only female player buy it? Hell no. SG is one of the most popular skin serie in this game 'cause a fair share of male player bought these skins as well.

In the end, different people prefer different things. No matter which gender they are.
