I'm gonna be honest. I really preferred the old Pentakill Splash arts

While these splashes show off their individual talent, I feel like the current one shows of them being an actual band.

I like more the new one, they look indeed like a group and it feels more like being at a concert xD

I disagree

I agree. None of them are playing instruments in the new one.

sona is though.

KoKoboto1 votes

Is she though?

In the splash art neither of her hands are on the etwahl and she's not focused on it at all. She's just posing like the rest of Pentakill.

technically she is

KoKoboto1 votes

Nah she isn't.

so she's not sitting there with a metal piano... are we looking at the same splash?

KoKoboto1 votes

She's not sitting and she's not playing.

If that isn't playing then she isn't playing in the old splash either.

At least we get to see her fingers that seem to be grabbing those strings (ie playing), while in the original her left hand seems to be under the instrument doing god knows what and her right hand is busy doing the metal sign to the audience.

Thats what people do when they play.

I can get the right hand metal sign thingy, but her left hand really isn't playing in the original splash art. Old splash may as well be depicting Sona before she actually starts the music and is just hyping the audience up before the performance (or right after one before the next track).

So that makes her new splash more closely resembles playing because at least her fingers are on the strings.

After you play the cord and your hand goes like that you let the note play out. Like Mordekaiser.

AmetDeCrypt1 votes

point being new sona is also playing an instrument.

counterpoint seen. doesn't have the same energy as the first one, she seems more the puppetmaster of the keyboard

love this argument "I prefer the old skins""NO YOU DON'T THE NEW SONA IS BETTER"THAT'S NOT WHAT YOU SAID AT ALL I WILL ADMIT BUT IT'S FUNNIER THIS WAY"

Nah she's just standing there like the rest of them.
