Some critique on the Kayle / Morgana rework

I have to say first that in general, the artwork isn't at all bad looking character designs. I just feel like the reworks don't feel like they fit the characters I had played over the past several years.

Both Kayle and Morgana seemed to get their feminine appearance and personality amplified, to the point that it seemed like riot was afraid people didn't realize the characters were female in the first place. Kayle wears a pink and white catsuit instead of a set of golden armor, and Morgana shows some leg with a bounce in her step? I felt both characters prior to this update really looked very imposing. I know if I saw something like the old Kayle coming down from the heavens, I would be afraid, but I don't get the same feeling with the new one. Morgana also seems more like she's trying to seduce rather than inspire fear, and there already plenty of champions in the lineup that are already that.

The additional wings were a great idea, and it does make the characters seem more otherworldly. The saddest part is that these wings are really the only thing that make the characters really stand out against the rest of the humanoid lineup. Take away Kayle's wings, and you could have Syndra with a sword and a different helmet. Take away Morgana's wings, and you basically have Evelynn in a dress. (Yes, the previous is a bit of hyperbole, but the characters only stand out because of their wings, and that shouldn't be the solitary defining characteristic, especially with well established characters like these). Though I did have one problem with Morgana's wings, being that I thought she had a tail until someone pointed out that those were actually her wings dragging on the ground. I already kind of feel like Morgana now look's like Brutal Legend's Ophilia cosplaying as Morgana, but to tack on Warwick's tail just seemed like a total non-sequitur. Finding some way to make it more clear what exactly is dragging behind her could potential improve the look (plus there are already female characters with tails... as well as female character with tails that seduce).

Taking into consideration that these reworks are the set in stone template for the characters for the next coming years, the skins for the characters do look quite nice. Some skins do seem a little redundant, like they were a chroma instead of an actual skin if you're not paying attention to finer details. However both characters do have some gems. Aether Wing Kayle looks great (though I have my reservations about the funnel systems Kayle Strike Freedom is flying with, it could use a little more work to look right). I am not fond of the Iron Inquisitor Kayle at lower levels, but I am totally on board with the final form. I feel like Riot Kayle is a mess though, and gets progressively messier as she levels up (but to be fair, I wasn't a fan of the old Riot Kayle skin either). Blackthorn and Lunar Wraith Morgana stand out as some shinning examples of nice skin reworks.
