Riot, if you ever rework Singed visually and lore wise.

Please don't take away his suave James Bond voice. Something I love about Singed is the dichotomy of how he's a giant hulking man that sniffs fumes, has lost all his hair, has burns on his arms and face and creates horrible chemical weapons, and yet he has this intelligent and suave voice and aside from his laugh he sounds calm and in control of himself.

He's not a jittering drug junkie that keeps trying for a fix, he's exactly like his gameplay, he doesn't give a crap about his enemies and has a goal that looks chaotic and without purpose but he's actually luring you into his trap to slowly die from choking on his fumes. He's the kind of person that, despite his physical scars, would be perfectly capable of holding an intelligent conversation at a high class dinner party but afterwards go back to his lab and work on a new drug to push what people are capable of doing to the human body.

I like this dichotomy, I like that he's not a one note villain and hope he'll stay that way.

"If you chase Singed, Singed is actually chasing you."

My favorite quote.

Debonair singed confirmed?

That would be fucking great, his big potion could be a huge bottle of cologne.

Also his VO's personality is great but it needs a lot more lines.

Cologne? No man, it'd be a big bottle of champagne that froths over when he uses Q and makes a big popping sound when he activates his ult.

Nawww bottle of axe, that shit legit kills people lol.

The single worst experience of my high school career was having to face the Axe-toting morons in the locker room. You could practically huff that stuff from the hallway.

I doubt he'll change visually that much since he did get a small VU already.

In terms of VO I think that his personality is actually in a good spot. His personality is rather unique and gives him this kind of charismatic/intellectual,but cruel vibe(also a bit of troll with his laugh xD)

I think his ult could need some new effects,as it currently just causes him to vomit some stuff. I'd expect him to actually mutate a bit during his ult,like gaining a bit of muscle mass(not mundo level,but less skinny) or something like that.

I can respect and admire charismatic immorality. Riot really should endeavor to retain the unnerving charm of Singed's character; he is essentially the black market dealer of notorious chemical substances that nonetheless presents a chillingly sophisticated demeanor.

Singed will happily mix a concoction that will melt someone's eyes and liquify their lungs all the while humming to Carmen's Habanera.

Name has no relevance to this feeling I assume? :3

Sadly, I really don't think Riot will keep his voice. They'll most likely view it as too silly, like Sion's voice, and make it over the top aggressive and sinister.

Sion's had Arnold impressions... That's too much.

If I remember right, a while back Riot changed it so that Singed automatically laughs whenever he flings someone. I don't think they'd change his voice because it's "too silly," they seem to like him where he is today: maliciously intelligent, dangerously amoral, and delightfully hammy.

I actually like sion currrent voice over the old one, I miss some of his old quotes thou... "The Fist Bone's connected to the Axe Bone's connected to YOUR FACE Bone!" and... "Who is your summoner and what does he do?" and specially "Get on my chopper!"

It's weird, too, some of his lines seem almost friendly, yet sinister. "How about a drink?" "I hear you..." "This may hurt."

Singed, Singed Bonds.

Sad thing is that right now Singed's kit is really showing its age. Adding things like "flinging into mega adhesive turns it into a root" will only help it straggle along for a little while longer. He is literally the first champion ever created in alpha and his gameplay is incredibly shallow, which is sad since his concept could be expanded into something marvelous.

Still, you can't deny how ridiculously unique it is compared to every other champion in the game. It's almost like you're playing a different game when you play Singed.

I would argue that that is actually what shows how dated it is. The fact that he is so distinct because of how archaic his kit is should be a red flag that he needs work. I would love it if they can keep his "don't chase singed" play style in some shape or form, but it should feel unique, not like it belongs in a different game from a different era.

he got a Model Update in 2014 to match the new Summoner's Rift, so i think he's in a good state, visual-wise

Riot ruins every voice they rework.

Well, except maybe Sion. His new voice is all right, but he's always angry.

What comes to your mind? I think of Tristana, Poppy, and Karma.

Gangplanks was the worst, imo, but Poppy's is not such a good jump either.

Of coarse Sion always angry, he wants to kill everyone. Unless they do a tea and crumpets Sion.

I hope, that he will get low scope rework to make his ultimate and passive more interesting.
