I'm not sure how I feel about the new splash tbh. It does make it clear that he's from Shurima now, just from the background; I have no qualms about that.
Rammus himself? Maybe the pose? The nostalgia factor? Something about him just doesn't feel 'okay' to me...
But never mind me! What do you guys think of the new splash?
It's...
...ok.
I like it.
It's simple, fun and straight to the point, just like Rammus.
In comparison to all the other splashes we've gotten in the past few days?
It's ok
I kinda get what you're saying. I was expecting if they'd do a Rammus splash, he'd be in kind of a goofy yet chill kinda pose. But I think they did a good job with the colors though. Usually the colors get kinda shifted from old, simpler splash to a new one. This one nailed it
Rammus really isn't the champion to fit into the whole "everyone needs an action pose" thing Riot has been doing. Honestly he'd probably look better with the same pose as the live client version, just a different background. The desert looks good, but...it's not the same when he's not just standing there being "ok."
sandshrew used sand attack.... its not very fucking effective is it?
Honestly it reminds me a bit of 
's current splash. It's simple, does a good job portraying his personality, is an improvement over the old splash and unlike the original version of Wukong's splash, it looks like they are right on the money with his appearance (and even gave him what appears to be a nice gold trim on his shell :p). Either way, It's about time they gave poor old an updated splash, that one has been bothering me for a while.
I don't like it. It departs too much from his placid personality that this current splash evokes. The chin is too large, and the style is too cartoonish. A good reference for the style it should evoke would be the Guardian of the Sands splash (and the current base splash too, which I personally thought have been perfect)
Also, where is his giant codpiece in the splash?
Maybe that's the joke. You see his splash art and think "Wow! He looks insane and cool! Bet he's awesome!", then you get into the game and "Ok. Yeah. Alright."
It makes him look Malicious or evil. Which doesn't seem to match his character nor story. Though out dated I believe his story is about him looking for others like him. Not violently attacking things.
Also he is one of the most relaxed champions. Yet clearly he is shown as very intense and emotional there.
BUT WHAT IS THAT CREEPY SMILE
Something else that I have just noticed about it, is that the golden-colored portions of his shell are (once you enlarge it) obviously non-organic metal. His current model textures make those portions look like natural transitions in the plate material, but still organic and something that is part of Rammus. With the borders of the plates now being crafted metal, it gives the impression that, although the spikes on the suit are clearly organic, perhaps the entire shell is actually a piece of crafted armor made from the harvested hide of some other being... and I don't like that implication at all. It is Rammus' shell, he is an armordillo, not an armor-wearing-dillo. Yes, he wears crafted armor, but that only covers his soft spots, it isn't his entire set.
Perhaps the metalwork is just crafted embellishments applied to his natural shell, but it definitely doesn't read that way to me.
I think the artist did an amazing job, the detail and texturing of his skin and spikes is amazing, my only concerns are with the theme-ing of the piece, rather than its execution.
What is he doing?
He doesn't use his arms to attack, that's the problem. It's always with his head or rolling in somehow.
I like his design. What I don't get is what is he doing, is he breaking some (small?) stones, is he throwing some stones, he is doing a battle pose?
I can't be the only one who's getting a Bowser vibe from specific hues of green, gold, and orange they used, right? ...This is a plus BTW
It's okay.
... shut up I'm serious. It's fine, it's satisfactory, run of the mill, adequate, fair, decent, average, DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?
He looks so cute now though :3
the art style seems weird to me
I really wish they used the pose from his taunt, just hanging out with his hands out, not caring about anything. That being said this one isn't bad, just feels a bit too violent for Rammus, granted he can sort of cause localized earthquakes on command so you can't complain too much.
Looks like a pokemon
Didn't feel like reading the 4 pages so if this is a copy of another comment I apologize. I feel like the thing that's wrong is his arms. His entire style is around his shell and in this splash he's using his arm to attack. That's not the rammus we know and love

Need for speed.
Seems good to me, not sure how else they could have done it
wait rammus has a mouth.... ive been playing the game for 3 years and i thought it was a ninja hood mouth cover.,....... i need to sit down for a while
i don't play rammus so my opinion doesn't matter that much, but i think i looks good. he looks really similar to his in game model. i'm not sure what you were expecting though. you want him just standing there like in his old/other splash?
... How big is Rammus?
I hate it.
I love the colors. The color guy was awesome, but I hate how pokemon Rammus looks. Give him some identity. Give him some definition. He's been around forever. This just feels so boring and what is going on the left side of the screen? Please give him a face. Armadillos have faces. So do turtles. I happen to have a beautiful turtle face. Get on it Riot.
