Meddler said Fiora is getting some art changes a long with her update. She keeps her hair right?

Because if she doesn't keep the red stripe I will be very sad ):

Last I saw the folks working on Fiora were playing around with different ways of doing a streak, or streaks, of colour in Fiora's hair. Can't make any guarantees until stuff's done of course, seemed to be thinking in a pretty similar space to her current look though.

In terms of overall art changes also worth clarifying Fiora won't be a complete overhaul. New visual effects and animations where needed for kit changes for example, and some general polish work, but we're talking moderate scope changes, rather than everything being redone.

Meddler, all we ask is the red stays.

And yay, Fiora's being worked on~ Are you overhauling her dance animation too? I've really felt that Fiora and Leona kinda...lose the chance to have a funny dance. Kayle's superserious yet does her dance without a sword.

Just...a small request from a not so often Fiora player~

gubigubi2 votes

While I don't mind the dance she has now I would like a new one. I'd also prefer to have one of her animations be something really fun to spam like what nami can do with her "oh yeah" splash thing. Or what nasus can do with his dance. Animation spamming is so funny to me :P

Basically, Miss Fortune-scope? Or even less, say Singed/Kassadin/Maokai?

Bit larger than Singed/Kass/Maokai, definitely smaller than MF though (who, while she didn't change thematically much, is close to a complete rebuild on the art side).

So this means her model is getting touched up while her design is staying relatively the same at least.

Will Fiora actually poke her sword now for the new art? Or will the "Master Duelist" still be slashing her rapier around like a total beginner?

I Main Swain5 votes

it seems like everyone is equating dueling to fencing, which it really isn't. I think I finally got completely fed up with it when I first saw a kit rework suggestion entirely based around fencing.

Duke Anax3 votes

her blade does seem a bit wide for a true Rapier, could be one of the older versions that were meant to both thrust and cut.

Isn't her crit animation a thrust though?

EvilRabbitt3 votes

It is. The crit is a quick, angled jab.

But will her voice be changed at least? To sound more aristocratic, to have some puns, etc-etc.

gubigubi7 votes

noooo her voice is good!

That waa some great POLISH WORK on Fiora's skins there Meddler.

It almost looks like you changed her completely, and even decided to make her fat in the Headmistress skin.

Too mainstream; we should start a preservation society.

Yes! A Red Stripe Preservation Society. And if our demands aren't met then we shall start a revolution!

No worries, the only thing they've been removing during the updates of female champions is their breasts. Happens every time.

I don't think theirs' have been touched.

I talk from an artistic viewpoint, not a perverted one.

gubigubi4 votes

Fiora doesn't really have large breasts or they aren't really shown off that much. My favorite skin for her is royal guard which doesn't even show anything. It's funny because if you look at her skins they gradually show more and more boob from classic < royal guard < night raven < headmistress.

Sharjo5 votes

Speaking of which she needs a new skin ASAP!

gubigubi2 votes

Yes please! I'd pay the entire production cost of the skin to get one at this point if I could @_@!

I GANK LANES3 votes

whaaat headmistress is by far her best skin

gubigubi9 votes

I really like her scarf and hair in that skin. But the fact the dress moves the way it does bothers me a lot. I'm pretty sure the type of cloth business dresses are made of do not flow that freely. It just feels like they had a school girl costume then pasted a business suit over it. I do really like the animation sound of the ruler its funny :P Its clearly a higher production value skin than her other 2 but Royal Guard is the main reason I even bought Fiora it just looked bad ass to me.

A Superb Villain2 votes

I got it as a gift from Riot, though I never use it. I find her classic skin far more appealing; for me, Riot really nailed her initial design.

gubigubi3 votes

Her classic is pretty good. I didn't like it when I first started playing at least the little vest thing she has. But it grew on me and I like it now. Still prefer Royal Guard though :p

What Is Smite3 votes

I have her Headmistress skin and Nightraven skin, and by personal preference I like beating people down with a yard stick. The default skin has it's merits and the red stripe in her hair is partially why I got the Headmistress skin since Nightraven lacked it. Anyways they are supposedly going to change the way her kit works with her ult as the baseline for it all, I believe she will get a GU when they give Yorick a Full Rework. Besides all that here is a Chibi Fiora.

gubigubi2 votes

I pick the head mistress skin when people pick jax and other "counter" picks. It's alwayhs fun picking that skin and just thinking oh they are going to learn today ;)! And ya it has always bothered me the stripe wasn't on royal guard or night raven. It is BARELY on royal guard but idk it kind of looks like they tried to scrub the red out of her hair for royal guard but you can barely tell its there in the splash and on the model.

I haven't really seen anything about the actual abilities we will be getting after the update though. At least not after what was being shown when Guinsoo was working on Her.

And as far as Chibi Fioras go I have a shirt with this on it :3 http://orig12.deviantart.net/90dc/f/2013/291/d/b/chibileague___fiora_by_atk402-d6qvpll.jpg I mostly only wear it when I'm home and know I'm going to be playing a lot of ranked that day :p

If Fiora players need to worry about something, it'd be her ass, not her boobs.

Remlap12234 votes

Name one female champion that got a breast size reduction during their VU. Go on, I'll wait.

inb4 Annie, you sick fucks.

Neo Cyrus8 votes

I shouldn't be responding to a Bronze that's trolling but what the hell; every single one has, or has been at least censored a bit, because you know, a few pixels more being covered is much more holy.

Remlap12236 votes

If I had 1 RP...

that's trolling

That's some great open-mindedness there champ. Anyone who has a differing opinion than me is either wrong or trolling. I bet you're fun to hang out with...

every single one has, or has been at least censored a bit, because you know, a few pixels more being covered is much more holy.

So, Riot changed the texture on Morgana's model that made her breasts smaller, and that automatically means THE SJWS ARE WINNING! THEY'RE TAHKIN AWAY MAH BOOBYZ!!1!

Example one of where you're wrong.

There's your logic, but knowing how the boards functions, it's not going to stand up to the power of the almighty circlejerk.

Gaston du Coteau7 votes

If you had 1 LP then what? You'd be in placements for Silver? There should still be an option to ignore everyone in your MMR and below. If there was a Plat+ board or something maybe I could read something that wasn't retarded.

Oh wow the first time ever they didn't drop every DD cup to an A... except in its only new splash art which does exactly that. Don't worry it's not out yet, I'm sure some whiny Bronzie feminazis will demand that all females in their games must be flat because it shatters their delicate self esteem and they'll change it. A character who's story relies on her being sexualized, and it'll get shit on anyway.

You asked for one example, you got it, then talked shit... by posting PBE pics meaning you know what he said happened pretty much every previous time and is happening now in one way or another. Nice try feminazi. I'd post pics of all the rest if I gave a shit.

My favourite example was Atlantean Syndra. Super poorly done and the textures needed work, it was taken off the PBE only to return more or less the same. I couldn't tell what changed really, then I realized they covered her cleavage a bit. Good job Riot. Instead of fixing the textures they decided to make it more feminazi friendly and release it at 975 instead of 1350... which would have been on sale for 975 anyway. As if that was the only time they did that.

This game is too pussified and suck-up shill dorks like you make it worse. Can't let Graves have a cigar or females show cleavage, or have any for that matter, otherwise it'll be harder to license in Pakistan!

Anyway, I'm off to laugh at the fact that you're bronze. The fact that such a thing even exists is hilarious. Stay ashamed, you should be.

"Muh logic, de circle jerk, generic condescending hypocritical stupidity"

Logic as good as the logic that keeps him Bronze. Strawman nonsense and delusions. To the black list, ignored.
