(this is still a pretty awesome skin...actually I want it even more now)

EDIT: jesus christ whats with all the downvotes. just making a joking connection here.

There is no way that Rioters werent aware of the resemblence when making this skin. Like 70% of them are hardcore nerds for fantasy stuff and board/card games just look at the freaking dungeon crawling skins they released a couple months back.

whats next. are you guys gonna downvote anyone who says Star Guardian Lux resembles Sailor Moon?Rageborn Mundo doesnt look like Axe from Dota2?That Chosen Yi doesnt look like a Jedi? smh

Who is she and where is she from?

I doubt it. I mean the only big similarity is that she has goggles and that she seems to be an artificer,because after all annie looses both the redheadness(her ingame hair is brown,it only looks reddish in the splash art because of the light effects) and the fire effects in this skin.

And well putting goggles on an artificer isn't really that surprising(and is pretty common among the hextech skins).

Also I think the downvotes come from people who just read the title and think you want to accuse riot of ripping off the design,because thats how it sounds when you say "Easter egg or unorginality?"
