GIVE GRAVES HIS CIGAR!

LickableIce·8/5/2015, 2:16:00 AM·239 votes·10,102 views

Honestly, I can't be the only one.... I know one YouTuber is with me-ahem Magikarpusedfly ahem-Graves should get his cigar back! I bought Graves solely for that cigar, now it's gone. I can honestly say that Urgot is more appealing at this point. Graves without a cigar is like Jaden Smith without Will... Like the White House with out the President... Like America without Apple Pie! This is a nerf I cannot live with. I wanna make this into a petition of some sort. if you believe that Graves should have his cigar pick Option One. Pick Option two if you're fine with a broken man.

Please remember to upvote this page so we can get it really high in the boards.

Thank you guys for all the support up till now I just wanted to say thank you all! Great discussions down there btw.

One more thing giving Graves something else is always up for discussion. I got the idea from looking at another post and im really liking the shotgun shell idea.

You do realize that it was NOT Riots decision to remove it right? It was taken out because of censoring laws.

I mean, why would they put it in only to take it out?

Okay, this is probably going to get downvoted into oblivion, but honestly, what the hell's so damn important about the cigar? How is it essential to Graves's character in any way?

If you want it so bad, here: Click this.

Save the files, and then drag and drop them into

C:\Riot Games\League of Legends\RADS\projects\lol_air_client\releases\0.0.1.153\deploy\assets\images\champions

The address may change with the patch; if so, simply search for "Graves" in the Riot Games file folder, locate the current splash and open the containing folder. Then copy & paste.

I love how new GP taunts Graves about not being able to light his cigar underwater, but Graves doesn't even have his cigar anymore

Like WTF RITO, do you even play your own game?

Gragas can be in the game but Graves can't have a cigar...

Seriously though, he's based off of alcohol and alcohol consumption he throws barrels of beer at people and even has a spell where he goes into a drunken rage, it's literally called drunken rage...

Literally on the ESRB rating for this game it says "Use of tobacco" So why the fuck can't he have a cigar?

As much as i dislike this ''Graves cant have a damn cigar'' meme, you are right.

I bought Graves solely for that cigar

People have really weird reasons for buying and playing their champions. Like, seriously.

Don't you enjoy the champion kit itself? Are you telling me you spend the entire game zoomed in on Graves' face so you can stare at the cigar?

Gragas, Esq. is smoking a cigarette in his splash. Gentleman Cho'Gath has a tobacco pipe.

Why is this okay, but Graves can't smoke a cigar? Is it JUST because they're alternate skins?

I don't smoke, but I think Graves should have his cigar.

Even better, replace the cigar entirely with a spare shotgun shell. http://news.tfw2005.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/07/hound_01_1404602183.jpg

I just saw this in a different post, and honestly I feel like this is a great compensation. Any comments?

Apple pie is not American http://www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2013/07/apple-pie-isnt-really-american/

Also, this issue was resolved with a resounding no months ago, simply because someone who makes youtube videos mentions it again does not mean that you should be commenting about it. There are ways to modify files so you see the cigar if you must, but otherwise just be quiet and next time you are upset about something first discuss it early and don't give an extremely idiotic reasoning, such as you cannot have this character X especially when X did not appear in past similar media portrayals, for context his old splash did not show his cigar and a video is not a similar media to splash art.
