After good designs like Taliyah, Illaoi, and Camille, I can't help but feel extremely overwhelmed by the "generic cute anime girl with cat ears and wings, like every Korean mmorpg ever".
And the guy doesn't seem to be better: "generic cute anime man with cat ears and wings, like every Korean mmorpg ever".
Is this really what we want?
Myzisco13 votesChill out this is one instance, doesn't mean every new champ is going to be like them and it doesn't make sense to instantly jump to that conclusion.
Sahn Uzal7 votesI agree with you, BUT, as far as I've heard (haven't read the story yet) these are Ionian characters. Ionia is kinda the Asia of the LoL universe, so characters having a ''Cute Anime Girl/Man with Cat ears and wings, like every Korean mmorpg ever'' is not THAT surprising.
Still plenty of room for other type of non anime characters for other regions.
Gapybo7 votesHonestly it's kinda refreshing to get a bit more generic design after all these edgy and niche types.
LunSeiSleidee2 votesWhat is refreshing about that?
It's a strange choice of words.
"Refreshing" is something different than what you usually get.
Not getting something you got everywhere else already.

You and everyone else except me, it seems.
Sharjo2 votesWell the creators seemed to want it.

Not the creators.
The players.
Riot is a company. If people whine that Taliyah has big eyebrows or that Riot is a SJW company, Riot is going to go back to easy, simplified tits&ass and samefaced characters.

Yeah because creating content that makes the playerbase happy is a bad thing.... wait what?
It is very wise of Riot to make good designs that follow their traditional style (Original 40) rather than pandering to feminist archetypes. This is a great job by Riot and they should be praised for doing a fantastic job, not criticized for it.
Ralanr2 votesIf Riot took the complaining that seriously, they would have made Taliyah's eyebrows smaller.
You're overreacting.
Yara02 votesYes this is really what i want :3 Sorry lol But i play Korean MMOs for allot of reasons and being able to play characters like this is just one of them.

Dominick Destine2 votesAfter good designs like Taliyah, Illaoi, and Camille
LOL? those designs were terrible.
Camille was sort of passable, Taliyah was atrocious, Illaoi was disgusting. I remember back in the day we had champs like the original 40 (Annie, Singed, Katarina, Mordekaiser, Kassadin, Garen, etc.) and the style was very well established. They changed for some reason and added some really nonsensical champs like the ones you mentioned.
The new champs look fantastic and I am glad they are returning to form. I hope this is a strong sign of things to come as well. Kudos to Riot for making such a lovely bird-girl champ, she is the cutest/best design they've had in multiple years.
Ralanr7 votesWhat are you basing Taliyah and Illaoi off as disgusting? Personal preference?
Dominick Destine1 votesWhat are you basing Taliyah.... as disgusting?
Strawman argument detected.
Ralanr4 votesAd hominem.
Dominick Destine1 votesAd hominem.
Red herring.
Ralanr6 votesDo you just want to spout logical fallacies or do you want to actually express your point in more detail?
Dominick Destine1 votesDo you just want to spout logical fallacies or do you want to actually express your point in more detail?
That's my line.
You do realize when you accuse someone of a logical fallacy you are supposed to explain rather than just drop it and run away, right? explain yourself and we can go from there.
I quoted the specific part where you presented a strawman argument, care to quote where I used an ad hominem? you can't because you lied, but I would like to see you try.
Ralanr4 votesI pointed out ad hominem because that's basically the reason you pointed out my strawman. To knock me down and propel yourself up as the more intelligent person of the discussion.
If you weren't doing that, you would done more than just bring out a logical fallacy.
Dominick Destine1 votesI pointed out ad hominem
You pointed out nothing, you just said "Ad hominem" which ironically would be a compound red herring/fallacy fallacy.
If you weren't doing that, you would done more than just bring out a logical fallacy.
Irony off the charts, captain.
Ralanr4 votesDo you purposefully try to make conversations with you so far off the original attempted topic for kicks?

What is "A Loaded Question" for 500 Alex
Ralanr3 votesAnd that answers my question.
Dominick Destine1 votesAnd that answers my question.
You ask a loaded question. Immediately get called and run away. Checks out.
Fasmodey1 votesI think It is fine.
It just releases of more and more humanoid characters started to annoy me.
Camille Ivern Kled Taliyah Aurelion Sol Jhin Illaoi Kindred Tahm Kench Ekko Rek'Sai.
Except of Rek'Sai and Aurelion Sol, others are all humanoid (And there are 4 actual humans among them). Why can't we have more Vel'Koz like champions? We have more than half humanoid champions in entire league.
MuffledGarbage1 voteswhat about 
though?

Stars Shaper1 votesI'm sorry but aren't we talking about East Asia-like animal-people? Should they look like hairy vikings?
Aldapsayar1 votesWell I think half animal sexy creatures have its market. Especially among typical LOL players
Lyndris1 votesYes, i am legitimately excited for a new champ(s) since like ... idk... bard?
Limrick1 votesOne traditionally attractive character after like 4 in a row that aren't. I think it's fair.
TyrekGoldenspear1 votesWhat's generic? I can easily tell them apart from the rest of the roster. :/
Besides, after a bunch of super unique champs, it's only fair we get another traditional fantasy champ. I see nothing wrong with that.
VoraciousX1 votesCamille is good design? It's like they took the one of the worst movie ideas of all time and made it into a character. Illaoi was just an excuse for people to make tentacle porn jokes, and Taliyah was basically an Earthbender. How are these any better designs than "Pheonix/Harpy couple who are supposedly an entirely new race(or at least newly introduced race)"
