Ahri new splash art reverted.
Now I am really mad.
That splash art was one of the best I ever saw. And because some "i wanna korean ahri splash" whiners it is now gone. So thank you.

I think the classic one is fine, it displays her sex appeal to acceptable levels (for who she is) and also shows off her true natural (magical?) beauty.
The new one made her look a bit too playful which is fine, but we barely saw her outfit. Her old pose is way more elegant too.
the new splash had tons of flaws such as the missing bell, barely noticeable whiskers and too short ears
I also preferred the new splash. Sad to see them give in to the screaming children.
That was my favorite new splash.
Meh.
They reverted Ahri; I demand they be fair and revert Kayle.
Good to see a few people who were acting like spoiled children who didn't get exactly what they wanted ruin a good thing. An artist put time into that and people just crapped all over it. They got an updated look to a champion and because people thought it wasn't their "Ahri" it was wrong. Despite it not being their character.
The new one had grown on me too :(
I wonder if there was an uproar in Korea and China about Ahri's westernized face. She is based on a Korean mythology figure, so I can only imagine the Koreans study every new skin and splash of hers with the most scrutinizing eye.
Don't celebrate too early about the splash reversion. If they aren't editing the splash they took down, Ahri may fall into the dangerous position where no one wants to touch her. If you think that's good, see Cassio and Poppy for possible results. (E.g. the person who works on her eventually rushes it and does not care what you have to say or they put Ahri in a position where they don't have to deal with her ever.)
for you sir. a man who like me preferred the updated Ahri splash art.i have created a package for use with skin installer ultimate that will change the splash art in game and in air client. you cannot be banned by using this for only you can see it. https://www.mediafire.com/folder/51kkk3goozzzh/
vanishes in a puff of smoke
It's probably minor tweeks. You will in all likelihood get your European Ahri.
The new art was nothing but flash; Ahri's current splash is superior in every way.
I hope they don't redo it completely, it only needed some minor tweaks...
well, they should at least render Ahri's current splash to HD though.
It's likely just been taken back for some edits or something, or maybe they're gonna change the pose. I doubt that they're just gonna not change it at all.
Here's to hoping they do the same to Janna. Riot please?
meh the new splash art was fine the only problem i really had with it was the fact that the tails looked really bad. No offense but those tails looked short and just all round bad i much preferred the original tails where it didnt look like a bunch of feathers glued together
btw 
FTW!!!1!
The new one made her "less fox", which is kind of her identity...
I liked the new one.... You whiners are amazing.
Agreed New art was the best
Ok so I am still confused, I tought the new bad splash art is a planed one not an alraedy implemented than reverted one, Which makes the qestion in me, will they do a better one or the original stays?
And I can only cry whan I see peaple aceept and want this Europin babe face thing as Ahri the nite-tails soul eating leaving danger, actualy the most problame I have on the new art the puffy hair the no Asian facial marks, the dead coloures and those small horns those replaced her ears (even the original art had a mistake with ears appearance in my opinin, they seemed not realy groving out from her head).
And Janna: She realy deservs a beter art too, or not changes from the last one befor tish new one ( nactualy I dont even see why Janna and Ezreal needed a new and bad art, while theyr art were realy mach to teir voce in the game and were realy good resoluton one. -This new Janna just terible: manly looks face, thin ribonchase, trimmed breast, dead coloures, over med backlight and un needed glows from the staff in her head, -(at the last art she was a mature Elfe looked like, in the new she looks like a mature hermaphrodita elfe now -.-" )- The new Ez, damn again dead cloures, and why that such long big face, with big jaw?! Ez a young boy isnt he, his voice realy give the expresion of that. (If any one again do a Taric - Ezreal joke, I kick it in his crouches! >.<" , actualy I dont rely got it why Ez and Taric relationsip the people realy kiding about always--- ).
this guy is in denial that korean splash arts are a million times better
