Tristana's voice. It sounds a little too...Poppy-ish? The pitch should be a LITTLE higher

(I made this thread once before, but for some reason it ended up in the Gameplay Balance board...)

While I don't think she should sound like , at the very least I think the pitch should just be a little higher. Not to the extent of , but "smaller" sounding than what we currently have. You know how in many games/films when a character is shrunken down, their voice sounds a little more high pitched (look at SSB for example)? I think there should be a hint of that in her voice. She is still a Yordle afterall. Take her current voice and lines, and run it through a processor or something to make it a little higher.

The voice sounds great for

I feel she sounds fine. poppys voice is deeper than hers and honestly poppy will get a new VO once her rework is finished.

You think that fits Poppy !? You cray. New Trist is higher then the current Poppy, and wouldn't suit her at all. She needs something rougher and tougher since she swings a giant hammer around. Trist is cuter and playful, so the voice goes great with her.

I love the new voice. little bit rougher, a bit less... ear stabbing.

I imagine Poppy's VO will get redone when she gets her rework. Hopefully it'll be soon. I absolutely HATE dealing with a Poppy in late-game since you cannot burst her or even interact with her if she ults one of your teammates.

I don't like the new Tristana voice at all but I do think what would help improve it is giving it a higher pitch, she doesn't really sound like a yordle. Yordles in general sound like they're small, Tristana's new VO not so much.

It's hard to gauge how a Yordle girl should sound. We only have three examples to go by; Poppy, Lulu and Tristana herself. Old Tristana didn't even have that high pitched of a voice. Poppy is probably the most grim serious of all the Yordles and thus has a deeper tone, and Lulu is a child. I think we're going with the misconception that because they're a child-sized race, they should also have a higher voice not unlike a child.

I personally enjoy Trist's new voice.

I think it's fine. Fits her VU model anyways.

Sounds more like Nami and Vi combined.

I don't sound any poppy at all in her new voice... Poppy is completely different.
