Beatrice is still around

She may not be sitting right on Swain's shoulder anymore, but she is still around.

Going on the PBE and messing around in practice shows that she sits on the terrain following Swain around, and more of her appear the more Souls he has collected. It's a bit creepy actually when you have 7 birds just staring at you.

it's actually nice since I am probably going to play Swain top after his released while killing the enemy top laner over & over....Top lane is a bit empty ya know? These ravens will keep me from getting lonely...

Funny you post that, since I play goat top and have a knack for not dying. Unless the enemy jungler wants to camp me all lane. In which case, jokes on them. Soraka is designed to function on no gold and multiple levels behind; their bot lane isn't. XD

After hearing his VO it seems to me like Beatrice is not only around but she/it gave him an energy arm, which most likely also fixed his leg, it's an interesting take, his visual age is the only thing that still bothers me though, specially on the bilgewater skin

im fine with a skin being such a departure in age, but it is weird since they usually dont do that and when they do the skins tend to be ultimate's/ legendary's.

The fact that a thread entitled, "Beatrice is still around" is evidence there is a serious serious issue with the new Swain. Birds/Beatrice were synonymous with Swain, as you felt and saw them every time you pressed Q or R.

It's just that I saw enough people questioning the lack of the all too familiar bird, and no one was giving a full or proper answer to where she had gone. The bird theme still exists with swain as the core part of his passive, that being Beatrice will grab a Soul Fragment from anyone who dies, is affected by the second half of his passive, or is hit by his W, as well as the bird thematic still appearing in his ult, albeit not the full turning into a bird that we currently know.
