Never really understood why she, Ahri, and even Katarina got updated splashes (and icons) when other champions could use it more.

The Katarina and Ahri newer icons/splash arts look much more updated and better in quality. The Janna one however doesn't look too different in quality.

Updated and better in quality, but much worse in appearance.

Why change something that isn't broken? Old Kata looked GORGEOUS. Now I can't stand looking at her..

I feel that way about Ahri. There was nothing wrong with her splash but change for the sake of change is enforced because reasons.

They all had a bad case of sameface. Riot probably wanted them to feel more unique.

idk about you, but I think this should be ahri's splash. http://pre03.deviantart.net/ed1a/th/pre/f/2015/063/b/1/ahri___league_of_legends_fan_splash_by_knockwurst-d8kc0p2.jpg

Really gives off that "sexy, but still sinister af" look.

I'm pretty 50/50 on Ahri's newer splash. In the sense that, I like them both. They both have good points about them

Idk man, I feel like the old one had more of a... charm to it.

Keevalroy3 votes

Why though? Why is the new one better than the original? I can't see how it's better in any way other than it's higher quality.

Sorry if i offend but as much as i find both of these appealing, the old kat in that pic at a glance kind of looks like a barbie doll posing for a box art shoot and i find it pretty funny..i can't tell if its because i'm only seeing her face and not her whole body or not but, it to me looks like the newer one is giving more of a feeling of depth and motion. the first seems kind of stiff to me XXD.(i'm not taking sides here though)

TheTyeGuy7 votes

New one looks more "I am going to rip out your guts and hang them on my wall." than the old "Do you like how I pose?" look.

It fits her character much more to look like a ruthless, semi insane look.

Not Katarina5 votes

You don't offend at all! Everyone is intended to their own opinion. :D While I love the killer look on Katarina, I wish they softened up her cheekbones / face slightly. She can look deadly without looking like she sniffed some things on the way in to the photoshoot. :')

But.. I think that all three of them look very beautiful ._. They're also more representative of their characters, and gave them a recognizable face. I also feel the new splashes tell you something about the characters, something a lot of the old splashes failed to do.

I don't really get the hate for the new splashes and making characters look older. Does everyone need to look 16?

That analogy is irrelevant. I didn't say you guys are artists, I said you guys are bad at judging good art. Not that hard to understand.

"Good Art" Isn't art 100% Subjective?

What about the BEAUTIFUL Kayle Splash that got reworked for no reason?

For me, Janna looks older now. Before, she seems to be more a teen or being around 19-20 years old. Now, she looks older. Shes also seems to have more confidence.

For Katarina, I prefer the new one all the way. Seems more like Kat. ^^

I like the newer splashes better. That's just like, your opinion man.

Don't tell them, it's all we have left of her splash in the Riot world.

The main reason I dislike the new Kat splash art is her right leg.

It just doesn't look right at all.

PaladinNO4 votes

+1 to this - Janna's on my list of splashes I keep returning to the old ones. List is: Ahri, Katarina, Kayle, Anivia, Janna, Tristana - and after recent events also Fiora.

No offense to Rito, but this isn't progress, not really, is it?

Although i think both pieces are nice i would still have to choose the newer one as it fits with the current version of her..Janna is after all a mature and wise adult now, i would have doubts about her age if they keep the 1st one because she looks like shes 16 or something..Also the newer one i feel has the most vibes when it comes to someone who has supposedly "mastered her craft" as some kind of wind mage/goddess.

The first one looks 16 to you?

DazedOnlooker1 votes

Where i come from its very easy to mistake a 20yr old for a 16yr old and its also easy to mistake a 16yr old for a 20yr old. Its common where i live.

But yes Janna looks around 16 to me in the first splash. She looks soo much more like an adult to me in comparison to the first, Not that i'm complaining, as i love both of these styles.
