It's...
...curly hair!
From somewhat wavy hair to pretty much full on afro, no League champ seems to have it.
Just giving artists an idea here, for the record my hair is straight as leeks.
EDIT I honestly can't tell if Illaoi's hair is wavy or stylized in a weird way:http://i.imgur.com/YHujMaN.jpg

isn't human is he
Heimer is the ONLY champ we have with an afro???
dapositiveviking3 votesi always thought it was a perm gone wrong
Takatsuki Yayoi5 votesLucian is pretty much the only human in the game with afro-textured hair (4c id say). Would be great to see a skin or a new champ with something similar.
Skelenth4 votesI always thought Sivirs hair was supposed to be somewhat wavy
Blood Magicks2 votesNot in the splash really.

dat position tho
CasterGilgamesh1 votesshe broke her hips her back and her leg to get that pose to work
junglerboy1611 votesIt's just perspective on an action shot actually, that kind of body position isn't strenuous at all for an limber athletic female (believe me, my best friend is a championship winning female hurdler, bending like that is perfectly normal for her when she races).
It only looks funny if you assume she is standing still and not winding up/releasing a powerful throw
CasterGilgamesh3 votesah that makes more sense

Looks kinda curly to me tho.
TBakes3 votesThis might be completely ignorant of me to say, but it might have something to do with the dynamics of non-curly hair in an animation? It moves when you move. It flows when you run. When you die it collapses on the ground. I know curly hair isn't static in real life, but it might be similar to the "breaking-a-wall" effect -- they want to include it but they don't want it to look sub-par in-game. Does that make sense? Just a thought.
I agree, though. They need to make a character with a fro. It doesn't even need to be a Ben Wallace fro necessarily, it could be a Carrot Top fro or a Seth Rogen fro. The possibilities are endless!
Blood Magicks3 votesYou might be onto something there. A rioter will explain perhaps? I feel all very curly hair does is jiggle.
TBakes2 votesYeah, exactly. I think it would be difficult to make it look natural and not cartoonish, realistic and not static. I'm not sure. Maybe curly hair doesn't exist in Runeterra? lol
333lom3 votesI've noticed this as well; there is wavy hair, and the closest someone gets is Heimer with his wavy hair. But no champion has curly hair.

Jeanne fan club1 votesShe is the first female I have ever seen with bangs, counting real life. Is there any reason that girls in real life avoid bangs?
SkyBlade796 votesYou haven't seen many females then...
Jeanne fan club1 votesguess your right, I'm 16 and all the girls I've talked to don't know why girls don't like bangs either.
SkyBlade791 votesI'm 16 too, and homeschooled so I have like 1/10th of the amount of contact with other people that you have. And just from looking at pop culture, I can see that many girls have many different hairstyles, bangs included.
Jeanne fan club1 votesI guess its just a midwest thing or something. Girls here all part their hair and have it flow down their back, or they put it in a bun at the top of their head. no hairstyles here lol.
Decrit2 votesHonestly you won' t see the very curly kind of hair here. As many pointed out there are curly and even some afros but are a bit semplified because it' s a matter of screen dimension. You can' t put too much detail there or else it seems all just noisy. Illaoi is curly enough for me, for example. You can tell she has curly hair at first glance.
Constantiine1 votesi think they should make a femail swords person, The only strong bad ass chick is riv and fio, i watched claymore recently if they could make somthing like that , it would be hype
Vistha Kai1 votesShould that champion include guts that could fall out any moment?

"The only strong bad ass chick is [Riven] and [Fiora]."
Perhaps you need to be taught a lesson.
