No to Ahri's new splash art

Well Ahri was the reason i joined league of legends, she is the champion I mastered (well maybe not that mastered) first, and she is the champ i climb up the ranks, anyway the new splash art seems quite different, and even ugly, I think they tried to give her a more korean look by punching her nose so she has a plain face, but this makes her look awful, anyway just my thoughts.

PD, not an english speaker, dont go grammar nazi :P. Anyway if this has been posted before, I am sorry, but i thought it was a good idea to "repost it" now, since the they added an "update" portrait for her

Do we even know who's making this new splash? It's obvious Knockwurst isn't doing it, since he made the original and some of her skin splashes. http://knockwurst.deviantart.com/

Whoever is in charge of this, who are you? What are you trying to do with the splash? Why does she look so different from the other splashes? Why does this splash have to be modified instead of redone?

Since they can't get her splash right, I want them to just keep her original. I made a post thanking them for reverting it back in the past but now they brought it back & IT'S STILL BAD. The pose for one, is the ugliest pose. With the tails it looks so messy, so does the hair ._. The new icon scared me when I first saw it. Seriously I don't wanna have to see this in game. Can someone start a petition. I dont know 1 person who ever had a problem with Ahri's original splash. It was so perfectly done, I would like to keep the original at least touch it up to make it more HD or have the same artists of Ahri's skin splashes to work on it. Goodness! I can't watch them ruin my girl.

Can't believe Riot went with that.

It's crap even by the standard of chinese game. Her chin looks like she had a bad platsic surgery and the silicone is about to fall off.

Jesus, looking at the new ahri face just makes me wants to cringe. The old ahri face look charming & elegant, the new face just plain .......slutty

I'm really glad riot listen to us and adjust but IMO the new face probly need new start from scratch Either that or just dont change the artwork.

I voted no because it's stolen from fan art and Riot should be better than this.

I don't even own Ahri.

"Ahri is the first champion I mastered."

I want to comment on this but... I promised people I'd stop bringing up rank...

or the fact you bought Liandry's on a burst build.

On to the topic at hand, the new Ahri splash looks absolutely fantastic. It retains pretty much all the features of her current splash (except the chin, the chin bothers me) while adding another layer to it that really shows Ahri's oriental roots.

Which one? The 4.19 PBE or the one shown in the shop ?

I personally loved the 4.19 PBE Splash and wish it were here now. Her current one lacks the quality of Miss Fortune and Vayne.

http://artgerm.deviantart.com/art/Ahri-s-Tease-496341842 its a bit NSFW but this artist would make a great choice to ask for some ahri artwork. But thats just my opinion. He also did janna's art. http://artgerm.deviantart.com/art/Janna-Poster-Art-407610100 The one people asked riot to make her new splash but they didn't. He's an amazing artist. I've watched his work for awhile.

I'm not very good with drawing. My girlfriend can draw I've watched her sometimes.

Ive never liked old Ahri's splash. She wasnt attractive in it, it didnt convey her character (lore wise) and the art quality just seemed weaker.

The new art, while it isnt perfect, there are some areas i really like about it. Wheras id hope they made her look more foxy (as the animal) and her laying on a pillow of her tails is odd, shes certainly more attractive. She has a slight seductive charm (which they should play up more) and the quality is vastly improved (as is the standard of modern splashes).
