Asides from having a dynamic pose rather than a boring static statue pose. More adequate texturing. A shield of liquid light (R). And more importantly, a perspective of a man staring up at a descending armored angel. NOTHING CHANGED ABOUT HER ARMOUR.

Boobs are impractical and unrealistic

Yes, and so is the very idea of a woman being in the battlefield if you consider Kayle's inspirational origin. Let alone wearing armour and fighting, you'd have a hard time finding many women who were bare-foot and staying in either brothels or at home taking care of wife-stuff or preparing dinner for guests their husbands may or may not bring over.

That armour is unrealistic because it has boobs

Indeed it is. The very idea of her wearing armour is unrealistic to begin with. If you want to climb this branch, double the size of her wings, give her an extra pair for good measure, and replace that armour with silk or something.

But you people accept the idea of a winged woman with a flaming sword covered in liquefied light wearing armour don't you? But you have a problem with her armour showing extremely subtle boob-bumps that's always been part of her design, that's pretty selective discrimination of details there.

Look, her armour design did not change at all. Her boobs are TINY, smaller than Gragas! There's a million things going on in that splash art. She's a woman covered in liquid holy light or whatever. She has huge-ass wings. Her boobs are hardly the focus of the splash art.

The ONLY reason people are even noticing the boobs then is because they are **specifically seeking it out. **

Historically speaking, one of the most well-known female figure that's been anywhere near the heat of battle have been Jean, the little girl who proceeded to get thoroughly destroyed, captured, and burned at the stake, or Athena, who atleast carries weapons and didn't get humiliatingly defeated. And what is, bar none, THE most widely accepted depiction of Athena again?

It's true that she isn't wearing boob-armour. But that is only because she isn't wearing any armour, period. Is it impractical in a real battle? Probably...but the whole, being a divine being thing probably had a lot to do with it.

Wait, when was she destroyed? It couldn't have been during Loire or Saint Pierre. Was it during Compiègne?

Compiègne was a minor loss for the French, both politically and militarily. Her capture was the only thing notable about it, because she was one of best commanders France had to offer at the time. Hell, she had been making preparations for that since March but wasn't given the authority over any substantial force.

Was it during her (illegal) trial where she repeatedly humiliated the prosecution?

Why is she even being brought up to begin with? She was a fairly successful female military commander who never wore a titty plate. She's a counter to every point you have been trying to make.

Please tell that to your history teacher, preferably in front of an entire classroom. Report the results later. If you can, try to record your teacher laughing at you and inviting the entire classroom to join in.

Alternatively, you can check out Wikipedia entries and thus save yourself from further embarrassments.

P.S. Having decorative breasts literally bolted onto the front of your armor the way Kayle's new splash has it is a death sentence. The shape and hollow space created by the metal would make arrowheads ricochet into the inside and ensure that they would lodge deep into her internal organs regardless of how harmless the shot would have been otherwise.

New art is 1000x better than the old one. The old one has way more issues and looks like some crap sketch of armor overtop a nice painted background (wings incl in the back)

Some people's kids... complaining about the realism & practicality of "boob armor" when there's vomit spewing void monsters and some guy throwing cards to take down other champs and towers. Go rage about how unrealistic those are then come back to bitch out armor design

Her boobs/armor/whatever are definitely larger in the new splash. This is easier to see if you look at the size of the boob plates compared to the diamond in the middle of them. Also her pose does make her chest a bigger focus of attention. I do like the new pose though; she's descending while also looking down as if she's superior to you.

People are mad because Kayle was the Samus of LoL. You'd think she's a man until you heard her voiceover. Now... she's obviously a woman, from her splash.
