Thinking of redesign ideas for Singed to match his lore better.

Baron Von Bangin··4 votes·1,415 views

I was reading Singed's lore the other day an noticed he was Warwick's former apprentice. Now if I remember Warwick's lore correctly, he's a bounty hunter of sorts.

I don't know why Riot gave him a big gas can on his back and making him carry around a potion all game. My new design I think fits his lore as an apprentice bounty hunter much better.

As you can see by my new design I gave him an eye patch and a scar because he probably would have gotten those trying to catch dangerous bounties. I think this will really convey his character to players that he is battle hardened and the apprentice of a wolfman. I also added a gun but decided on making it a gas gun so he could keep some of his poison theme. And I think as a bounty hunter (since Warwick is a bounty hunter and Singed's lore says he's Warwick's apprentice) should have a knife more than a shield because it makes him look hard.

I think this new redesign really captures that he is indeed Warwick's apprentice, as stated in Singed's lore.

His title should probably also be changed to the Apprentice Bounty hunter or something.

:^)

Except Singed's identity as Warwick's apprentice was back when Warwick was a something like a Scientist. When he was changed to a bounty hunter, Singed remained unchanged.

Pretty sure that was intentional on Riots part. They want Singed to be a bounty hunter now.

Yeah, Riot needs to update Singed's lore. It has been like 3 years since they changed Warwick.

No.

Read Singed's lore. It says he's Warwick's apprentice. If Warwick was some kind of potion master/alchemist Singed's current lore and design might make sense. :^)

they forgot to alter it when they retconned warwick to not be an alchemist.

That's impossible. There's no way they'd leave it like that for that long if that were the case.

...you're new here, aren't you? This is Riot's lore department. They'll leave it as long as they think they can get away with it

New? Nawh. Been on the forums for 5 years.

Just sarcastic.

Wait, this entire thread was a joke? Damn, these boards are messing with me. There are so many dumb ideas on them I can no longer determine normal stupidity from jokes

I thought the ":^)" was enough to tell everyone I'm sarcastic but y'know.

ok lmao recently i got in an argument with someone who thought yasuo genuinely killed his master and the third-person omnipotent view of his narrative was meant to be an unreliable narrator, so I'm p much willing to believe people think anything at this point (changed my downvotes to upvotes bc this is actually p funny)

Personally I think Singed's current design is fine, though I do think replacing his giant green poison bottle with some kind of device/weapon that spreads poison might be nice.
