Why are there no complaints about Singed?

Okay, I'm seeing a million Ahri Splash Art Complaints, 3 Kayle Complaints, even two Janna complaints, but absolutely NO ONE is complaining about Singed's Mutated Face? I get it, you people love your older Champions (even though I admittedly like the newer splashes, save Kayle's Boob Plate.)

I especially like Singed being updated, he was a RELEASE Champion and now he's finally being given the Visual Update he's so desperately needed. But why, for the love of god, does it look like someone bashed his eyes in with a hammer and the healers went 'Eh, what the hell?' and left the eye sockets so... dug in? And why does the general head overall show so little detail compared to other splash arts?

I know Singed being mutated as a result of self-experimentation being part of his lore but could the Art Department PLEASE take five minutes to see if they can fix his head a bit?

Singed has always looked that way. And I think at this point the board has complained itself out a bit.

I honestly thought the splash are was really good and captured what Riot wants Singed to be/there view on him in.Singed

First of all, saying people care about other characters because they're older is a bit silly. Singed is the very first champion ever created for the game, it's impossible to be older than him.

Second, people did complain about his pose on the art (namely that he runs like a ballerina), but it's harder to complain about his appearance because of the above reason. Being a very old champion, Singed was in terrible condition and the smaller details of his appearance were mostly guidelines. People would have been fine with anything so long as it was appropriately ugly.

On the other hand, Kayle has a quad-layered boob armor that would crush her ribs if she so much as tried to move or breathe, while Ahri has a lifeless porcelain doll face and her spine is warped into a pretzel. So of course people are complaining about those more, whoever drew them must have slept through their Anatomy 101 classes in art school.

For a guy who chugs chlorine all day, he looks handsome as all hell.

you'd have to give him smaller boobs before people on this forum would complain 8P

I think that the splash is fine, and his new model textures are really nice

He looks less like it is super weirdly mutated and more like he is scowling to me. They really cannot go wrong with his new splash when the old one had zero emotion and was basically a still of his in game model cartoonified. Now he at least looks like he has done some sort of illegal shady things and experiments on himself. He just has more noticeable differences because his old art had so little detail and the new art has so much. I kind of like it.

He's not a woman therefore not worth complaining about for the LoL community

Players mostly care about female champs. Akali being nerfed in her splash is a fairly recent one I can think of. The only time I've seen male champs be complained about is when they're really bad, like Wukong's face.
