About Miss Fortune VO

Since everyone is talking about the scrapped mf vo and their thoughts for a future one I’d like to share mine. Everyone is talking about a balance between being playful/flirty and being a bad ass bounty hunter. I think a balance would be the best but I’d also like to see the character accurately reflected from all the new stories she’s in. The character portrayed in burning tides and the surrender video doesn’t really strike me as the kind of character who finds the need to make innuendo comments to everyone she comes into contact with. That’s not to say she shouldn’t be fun or anything, there’s parts in her comic and burning tides where she jokes around and even flirts a little with blondy, but in the end she was there on business and she accomplished her goal to get what she wanted out of him. So I’d like to see a character that means business but doesn’t seem so grim to play when you hear them talk the whole time, and I would hate to see the character devolve from what she is currently in lore to what she was pre burning tides. Because as it is now she’s the femme fatal who has a clear set goal and knows what she wants compared to a stereotypical Jessica Rabbit clone.

From all the talk of this canceled VO, I haven't actually seen any official statement that Riot refused to do a combination of both flirtatious and badass pirate. I've seen plenty admitting there was a struggle to balance both but nothing suggesting the devs didn't try. So enlighten me because I don't understand where people's concern is coming from.

Although it doesn't really matter what was and wasn't going to heppen (or whatever rumours have been said about it) because we know MF isn't getting an immediate VO update anyway.

Riot stated that they tried to edge the VO to a more badass side, but got major kickback from people who claimed that she wasn't flirty enough, and who for some reason revere her ancient, current VO as some paragon of what her personality should be. They scrapped the VO because they couldn't appease the people who wanted her to be the badass pirate they've made her into in the lore and they couldn't appease those people hung up on the past and clinging to her severely outdated pirate hooker VO.

I mean, I think they merged both badass and flirty perfectly in her GGMF skin, so I don't understand where the conflict lies.
