Fiora VU vs Current Fiora

Sharjo··20 votes·16,583 views

So I'm personally in the camp of "I really like Fiora's VU" yet my opinion is apparently not echoed by a majority. I don't mind, everyone's got their opinions, but I figured since everyone's jumping at the opportunity to talk about this, I'd share my thought after some consideration.

So current Fiora is a champion who I think looked really sexy. I think it was actually her face that drew me in and that strip of red in her hair. She's a beauty, with a gorgeous face, slender body, nice butt, she looks great. Her design was also pretty great in terms of clothing too. The three part drape thingy-ma-bobby on her shoulder was a really cool design element, and the stuff she wears over her body suit is clean and sharp. It's a great design.

But I like Fiora's VU more. Why?

Well I'll go through the different parts. Firstly the clothes. They're actually really nice and look more naturally than what she wore previously. They look comfortable, well made, pretty grand and above all, refined. I'm gonna keep going back to that word. Her garb looks more refined now, as opposed to her snazzy, sexy outfit before. She actually looks very noble, very royal in my eyes, and I approve of this more than the body suit.

Next up is the thing people seem to despise; her face. I love it. For one thing she looks a bit older, and I kinda dig that. Fiora being in her early to mid thirties? Hell yeah, I can dig it. Her facial features look very sharp and defined, and it makes her look stronger to me. Stronger as a woman, as an individual, as a personality and as a duelist. Hers is the face of a duelist who is not so much cocky as she is confident and bold. This also adds to that noble and royal feeling and described before; she seems more like a figurehead; the head of a family (which she is), a woman of high standing (which she is). She looks stronger than she did before, and I think that's the key difference. Current Fiora is young, brash, cocky, sexy and deadly. VU'd Fiora looks a bit older, confident, bold, beautiful and powerful. To put it in a less eloquent way, current Fiora is a sexy lady to me. VU'd Fiora is a beautiful woman, and this Fiora is actually sexier to me because of that.

So those are my thoughts, and to kinda condense it all: I think personally that VU'd Fiora is great and makes her less sexy lady and more powerful woman, more of a strong, confident and noble person. VU'd Fiora is the one who I'd give the title of "Grand Duelist" to, rather than current Fiora, and this comes from someone who does actually like Fiora's current look.

Her outfit is more stylized now, which is to say that her formerly practical-looking, more subdued armour was changed into goofy cartoon armour with impractical jagged parts, made of some sort of material that no armour has ever been made out of. Her outfit is just as form-fitting, but her new armour is less sleek and "refined".

Fiora was always the "youngest" child of the Laurent family, her being a young woman was part of her background. She was a daddy's girl who had the pedestal she built for her father destroyed when she discovered he was a dishonorable cheat. Furthermore, you say that Fiora looking more confident, power, and self-assured is a good thing and reflective of her character, but is this really the case? What is Fiora's motivation? She feels that her family's reputation was tarnished by their father's actions, and is fighting to prove her name's worth by becoming the most skilled duelist in Valoran. The thoughts and opinions of others actually mean a lot to Fiora, her motivation is actually driven by very insecure and human feelings. She is proud and even maybe arrogant, but she still feels she has something to prove. Look at the old Fiora's splash art. You're right, she doesn't look as confident, haughty, or powerful as the new Fiora. And that is because Fiora feels there is still something she needs to prove and is plagued by the shame her father brought onto her house. She's fighting to prove that her name has meaning.

But none of this matters. All that matters is that the new Fiora doesn't really look like the old Fiora. Her design has been changed for reasons I can't really figure out. The design team was bored, I guess? I don't know. No one complained about Kassadin's VU because it was just an update on the same champion. Why wasn't Fiora's the same?

People complained about a lot of things with Fiora, but never her visuals. I simply don't understand why they felt they had to do this, and no explanation has been forthcoming. You'll note they don't mention it once in the release, which is pretty telling if you ask me. They know this isn't going to be popular, they're just going to ram it through because reasons.

I'm going to assume it's to make her more regal and Demacian looking in general. She's basically a posh over educated duelist from a very classy city. It makes more sense for her to look the way she does now compared to what she used to look like.

Her previous armor looked too much like Garen's tbh. Now it's the epitome of "I'm better than you"

If by more "regal" you mean "more stylized", you might be right.

Also, what Demacian champion looks anything like current Fiora, lol?

I can see how you would think that, except actually I can't, because her armour looked nothing like Garen's.

Furthermore, you've contradicted yourself. You've said she didn't look "Demacian" enough (whatever that means, lol), yet having armour like Garen's (basically the face of Demacia, alongside Jarvan IV) is bad?

Come on.

Is it semantic to point out the words you are using are wrong? The answer is yes.

But is it wrong to do so? No. Regal and stylized are two entirely different words with different implications. I don't think Fiora's new look looks regal, but it is certainly stylized, mostly in regards to her armour. It is "stylized" because, where Fiora's former armour was practical and svelte, her current armour extends outward from her body in jagged edges that don't serve any functional purpose. Whether you prefer that or not is purely subjective, but it is in no way more regal.

Nothing else I said to you had anything to do with semantics, so I'm not sure why you're so upset.

Welp, I look forward to it. I picked up this game after seeing Fiora's splash art on a forum. People really enjoyed like Fiora's current design, it garnered her die hard fans even in the days when she was universally reviled as one of the worst champions in the game and a laughing stock. I hope you'll keep that in mind when you explain this direction your team has taken, and consider how you'd feel if Leona was turned into something you were THIS disappointed in.

The thing is, this isn't a small issue. There are a ton of problems with Fiora's splash. Her in-game models as ugly as sin and they changed some things about Fiora - her hair covering her eye - that helped us identify her.

Enshaedn Embrula2 votes

I 100% agree with the new Fiora. Yes she looks older, and yes shes different, but didn't they do the same thing with Gangplank? I mean look at him. He has a grey beard for god sakes. The new Gangplank looks to be in his fifties, at least. The new Fiora? Low to mid thirties. I don't understand why people are freaking out over her new look. She looks stronger, more confident and most of all, relevant. Fiora has a blade like a fencer correct? Well what do people wear when they fence, armor? NO! They wear tight fitting clothes so that they can clearly tell when they are hit. Your not going to wear clunky armor when fencing, and in Fiora's case with her kit, why would she need the armor. Her style of fighting means get in, kill, and get out within a matter of seconds. Not have a long duel like Garen or Darius. The new Fiora looks amazing, and people should really stop hating on what Riot is doing. And on another note about Gangplank, is there some gender stereotypes going on here? GP can look 50+ but god forbid Riot makes a champion who looks to be in their low to mid thirties. Riot is doing a great job, upgrading and updating their game. Her in game model is also amazing.

People did complain about GP's update, and those people were justified.

Fiora is explicitly the youngest of the Laurents, and is implicitly around the same age as Lux, judging by her envious rivalry with her.

She looks stronger? Why? Is it because she looks starved, lol? The new Fiora looks far slighter than the old one does.

First of all, the new Fiora still has armour. Also, nothing about Fiora's armour would hinder her movements, and yes fencers wear protective gear.

Riot didn't "make" a female champion in her low to mid thirties. They altered the appearance of a champion to make them look at way.

Her new look was neither needed nor wanted.

Enshaedn Embrula2 votes

Her current look shows off how good her ass looks in tights. And she doesn't look starved, she looks perfect. I mean, to me her face looks like a bad ass french woman, and isn't that what she is?

And the new one shows off how her thighs and tits look in tights.

Look at her fist behind her back for a moment, and realize that it has roughly the same width as her abdominal area's depth.

What the fuck does a "badass french woman" look like, lol? I mean, what do their faces tend to look like? I don't know. Do you? And if there is indeed a stereotypical french look, why pander to that stereotype?

Her face looks like some person I don't know who is trying to convince me that she's Fiora. Sorry, but she doesn't look like Fiora to me.

Enshaedn Embrula1 votes

Well she is now. And on another note, we could be arguing about her abilities rework, but all riot has to deal with is her skin/splash art. Thats the only thing I see people talking about.

Knight Auditor6 votes

Stronger? More confident? Relevant?

Seriously, you're just making things up!

Her current design actually shows off her athletic build. They both have a haughty expression, this new one just looks sterner while the old one is more derisive with the smirk. I wouldn't say there's any difference in confidence. And relevant is just meaningless. Relevant to what exactly??

By the by, she already looked to be in her early 30s, people have really messed up notions of what one's 20s look like if they think otherwise.

I mean, come on, white knighting much?

Yeah, I agree. I've never seen so much unified dislike for something Riot has put out. The closest thing I can think of was the Ahri splash, but that doesn't even come close to this Fiora thing. Almost every thread on the main page right now is Fiora hate, each with over a hundred upvotes.

Of course we shouldn't "harass" them, but our complaints have gone unanswered so many times in the past so we have to find some way to make them listen this time.

Hey Ironstylus, I'm not sure if this is a good idea but I'm going to post here since I can't direct message you.

So it's pretty blatant that you were directly leading the team for Fiora's visual update. That concept art has your visual style all over it. I'd like to say that while I don't hate the visual direction you guys went for the new look, I also don't like it either. It's not bad or ugly as some a-holes have claimed. It's just too different from the style and personalty that was part of her old look. The original concept artist also had a very distinct style that was almost heavy handed as well: fiora, lucian and draven look very distinct and just barely fit the style and tone of the game. But that was okay then because LoL was still trying to nail its Visual look down.

The problem is that you guys have basically covered up the svelte calm cool Fiora with the DEMACIA! extraneous boldness that you'd find on other more appropriate characters like Garen. Now this isn't a fault exactly. Fiora was visually separate from Demacia and you were just trying to bring her back into the fold of her setting and story. But it suited her some how (the same way it suits Lucian and Draven) despite it going against her lore and the direction it was going. Fiora wants to raise he house back to prominence and be part of the upper families that they fell from. It makes sense to make her more bold and perhaps more angular as representing her antagonist reassurance among those noble families. I just think you went alittle too far.

Fiora doesn't feel the same anymore. Its a subtle shift but enough of one that she doesn't feel right. I'm sorry it just doesn't.

I know it sucks to hear all this criticism and a lot of it being nonconstructive or just untrue (I'm looking at you top post about the splash art being produced by a bad artist...). Especially when it's obvious that ton of care and consideration went toward this VU. I hope you and the your team doesn't read this all as you guys did a bad job because you guys didn't. It's just a little off the mark.

I've said this before and I'll say it here too. I love the work you guys are doing for these updates for the most part. But disagreements are inevitable and so the community won't always see eye to eye with Riot but you guys have been putting out top notch work. Personally I'll get use to these changes and live with them even if they don't quite match my desires; that's more my problem than yours.

It doesn't matter how much care and consideration went toward the VU.

If they provided an unsatisfactory VU that does not share anything in common with her old self that no one asked for or wanted, they have done a bad job.

Honestly I just want to know why she's doing whatever she's doing with her spine.

I suppose her face looks rather cartoony, which feels weird next to champions like Lucian/Gangplank/Ashe, but I'm fine with her having super angular facial features. Outfit looks a bit funky, but there's worse in the League.

Corriandr3 votes

Looking at the work of both you and @raymondgrieg, the concept pieces, designs, and banner you two made, they are great. You two did a wonderful job, with my only wish being you that you had instead settled on the design that is currently up on Ray's twitter. Personally, I like that one far more than the current one, though I do really enjoy this one as well. The problem lies in the very poor execution of your concepts by Riot in the form of the Splash Art, which falls horrendously short of the standard set by the banner you made that Riot is using to advertise Fiora and the standard set by the previous Fiora artist, and the artists of such recent skins such as Captain Miss Fortune. What is especially disappointing is the current status of Fiora's new in game models, in which I can look at and say only one was done well, that one being Nightraven Fiora. All the others feel like a downgrade. My wish is for Riot to go back and continue working on Fiora's splash art and models, to bring them up to the standards Riot has previously set and to the quality that I know they are capable of.

IronStylus had previously been highly critical of Fiora's visual design, and in general of a lot of the "samey" female characters LoL had that looked like people cosplaying instead of characters. Another character he brought up around the same time was Zyra.

But the long and the short if it was that IronStylus thought that Fiora had no distinctive silhouette or visual cue that identified her like Garen's muscles, Master Yi's ankle swords, and etc. etc. This made it ridiculously hard to identify her if they designed skins for her - since she just ended up looking like a generic female character with no distinguishing traits.

It's pretty obvious that they latched onto her pauldron and cape as her distinguishing feature, given how every skin heavily features it.

And I all I say is BULLSH@T. She had a THEME. She fit Fiora they presented back then. All this VU is wanted is excuses for HIS art work to supersedes what look better and MOST OF THE PLAYER BASE OF FIORA PREFER. This does not pass the smell test. It looks bad and the in game even worse.

Fiora is witty,snipy, french sounding fencer with chip on her shoulder and the skills and experience to back it up. The old art fit that to a T but the new one... what the ... just what the heck why. Freaking Rito is going to lose their CORE player base if they keep doing VUs that are not NEEDED.

Knight Auditor7 votes

Is she not, now, a lady in a different costume? I mean, I'm sorry to come off as being a little over the top in my critiques if that's the case, but that seems like a highly vacuous statement. I don't even think I agree with his premise regarding Garen and Yi, who I'd argue are known best for their DEMACIA!!/JUSTICE!!/SPINNIIIIING!! and Splinter Cell visor, respectively. Put Garen in any other armour and it's still Garen, because his being a big, armoured knight is not the distinctive quality of his character at all, it's the fairly typical part that his character must transcend in some way in order to find its own identity.

If IronStylus and his team wanted to find something distinctive around which to centre Fiora's design in her appearance, I think they had the wrong idea, and failed to find that distinctive element as well.

I'm just not hearing any compelling argument, basically.

Fiora looks and sounds confident and cocky, she looks athletic, she's not overly-encumbered by armour and the armour she does have seems practical (aside from the breastplate being breast shaped, but that's a very old and standardized trope). I like the red-streaked hair and bangs more, that's just personal preference pure and simple. With this update she loses the cool thigh high boots, gets a much boxier torso, and an altered hair style. Oh, and a much more exaggeratedly angular face that I feel really justifies the countless Disney criticisms. That's it. That's all. That is not what I'd consider a fresh new jumping off point to make new skins and assets for Fiora, that appears to be nothing more than change for the sake of change.

And if they lack for skin ideas then I think that's a failure of the imagination at best, or a lack of desire at worst. When I saw the new Corsair Quinn skin the first time I actually didn't notice Valor and thought it was a new Fiora skin. I was briefly extremely happy. And then I realised that no, IronStylus had just decided to use the Bilgewater event to give one of his champions yet another new skin that for all intents and purposes could've gone to Fiora (who could buckle swashes just fine if anyone at Riot gave her a chance).

They could give her PROJECT skin, a Forsaken skin, a Commando skin, a High Noon skin. They could do all sorts of things for Fiora if they actually had the will, but they haven't had the will to do anything for her in two and a half years. This new 'update' is just the latest incarnation of that lack of interest. That they really didn't care oozes through every aspect of it (except the kit itself, who knows, could be lots of fun).

And that's why I'm angry and why I'd like some kind of answers. The people who've been die hard fans of Fiora from the onset, we've waited a long time just to have this thrown in our face by people who've invested so little in the character.

/rant

P.S. They've been too busy for Fiora for a long time, it's nice to see that amongst all this change one thing remains a constant.

Why, exactly, should I give half a Twitch's ass what IronStylus thought of Fiora's visual design? He didn't like it?

I don't care. I liked it, most people liked it apparently, but allegedly that's not good enough.

No visual cue that identified her? Other than her cape, which is present in all her skins in some fashion, much as you said? Or the fact that she is the only champion who wields a rapier? The red streak in her hair?

What does Lux have in comparison to differentiate her that is present in all her skins? A wand. Oh wow.

I hope what you're saying isn't true, because all it means is that IronStylus is going with what he prefers, fuck the actual fans of the champion.

I'm fine with her new armor for the most part. It's just the face I can't stand. You could cut bread with her cheekbones. As much as I love the current Fiora splash/model (which is one of my favorites) I'll like the new one of Riot fixes her face.

The new Fiora art is terrible.

Tell me, Ironstylus; why does the youngest child of House Flaurent and a rival of Lux (who is barely 20-24) look like a really athletic 40-yr old?

MistuhrSoku2 votes

I really dislike that Fiora is being changed. Since playing her from season 2 onwards, I have 0 interest in the VU Fiora. Mostly because she doesn't even look like the same person, and her color scheme is NOT FIORA. The first skin she has, the one with the hat, that one changed and now I hate it. That use to be my favorite skin, it's honestly a pain to deal with these visual updates when the original design is completely scrapped and tossed away.

What's to say you won't edit Spirit Guard Udyr? Or change Ryze to look like someone who isn't Ryze?

If you're going to VU a champion, keep her original design, and make it better, don't scrap it. Think of all the fan art that people are going to say "Who in the hell is that?!". You're really making a mistake to the player base by changing these champions too drastically.
