Honestly, I can just imagine a corporate money man standing over the artist's shoulder with events unfolding as such

Money Man: "Yeah, can we make it sexier? Like, I need to see some curves." Artist: "Kayle has always been fully armoured, it's why a lot of people like -" Money Man: "Yeah I get that, but with the success of our recent popstars skin, fans clearly want HOT champions." Artist: "I mean, sure, but that's an entirely different -" Money Man: "I'm glad we're in agreement! Give me some hot lady concept art when you've got it ready." leaves Artist: sigh "Maybe I can at least keep her fully clothed..."

It would be incredibly disheartening to find out that whoever was in charge of redesigning Kayle legitimately thought that this visual representation of the character was loyal to what she was and what fans were hoping to see. It's an incredibly tone deaf decision that I pray came from the marketing department, not the creative team.

I don't like Kayle's armor either, but to be fair it was more like

Yeah? Imagine liking a champion that isn't sexualized Warwick Zac MonkeyKing and having your tiny community ask for the smallest tweaks on a fan favorite skin only to be ignored or told it wouldnt be worth the effort.

Rip Feral Warwick Chains.

Rip Radiant Wukong Cartoon Clouds.

Rip Zacs damn Suit.

Even reddit will not change anything at this point.

Are you supposed to be honest? I hate Miss Fortune cleavage, she reminds me of a playboy pirate, but does it matter - no. I'm not a big fan of her "armour" as well, but I feel that "update" looks a bit better. And also people are more likely to spend real money on that Ahri skin than for a 450 BS champion.

It's their design, they don't have to "fix" anything. Ahri was different as it was a full texture adjustment, what people want on Kayle is a redesign cause they don't think she's wearing armor, and that's not happening.

Plus, "fixing" anything visually is subjective as Riot Stellari said over on Twitter. So it's not going to happen with certain things.
