I think I know why Ekko dislikes people from Piltover so much: they all seem to have a jerkass angle

Camille's haughtiness makes her a total bitch, Caitlyn's whole "toss her overboard, I don't care" thing in Progress Day makes her a bit less likable (even if she just caught a Noxian spy), etc. I get the feeling that Piltover's roster (besides Vi and Jinx) is going to be full of jerkass characters.

Intended? Or is Progress Day an incomplete depiction of Caitlyn's personality?

Considering what Noxus does, I can't say I really disagree with how Caitlyn acted. If anything she was merciful by letting her leave Piltover alive.

She had all the evidence she needed to justify an execution. But she didn't. She instead sent what she believed was a warning to Noxus.

"I will find you, but I won't kill you. I'll let you return in shame with the knowledge that you failed hanging around your neck."

Except in reality, the Noxians didn't fail. Poor Caitlyn.

And let's not speak about the fact that --and it was obvious-- the noxian girl can draw the plans again from memory. I wouldn't have let her go, in Cait's place.

Well I mean Progress Day doesn't give us Caitlyn's perspective, so yeah I'd say it's incomplete. She comes off more as calculating and uncaring than a jerkass to me from that depiction, but hopefully her bio and short story will give further insight.

On a slightly related note I'm DYING to see what Orianna's short story looks like. I hope they put Jellbug on her.

Have you read his new story blurb in his bio?

He's an arrogant, self-absorbed pissant. Just like he is in game!

Wait what. I could swear he was shy af 1 month ago O-o

Edit: Can you please provide the link to said story? Can't seem to find it :/

Edit Edit: Found it; tbh, I feel like he's joking around and having some fun. Remember, he seems to be very seasoned in-terms of expeditions and death-traps, which gets him a bit cocky (Again, i'm pretty sure he's gonna go back to the shy thing he once was the moment he steps-foot to turn in his discovery). It can simply be thrown down to him having a bit of fun.

Of course Vi and Jinx are the only exceptions, they're from Zaun :P

Oriana is probably not a jerkass but she might not act very human like

I feel the same way. It was different before, when the characters were just enthusiastic about their positions. But Piltover seems to be a land of snobs and pretentious assholes.

Here's hoping they keep Jayce a bright, forward thinking-type with a positive attitude and not another cold, dick-like, everyone-else-is-stupid-but-me attitude.

Jayce is kind of a dick though isnt he? Didnt he steal from Viktor?

Voidac1 votes

Wow no. Completely the opposite?

Voidac1 votes

BEHOLD. THEY MADE JAYCE AN ASSHOLE.

Voidac1 votes

WELL DIDN'T I HIT THE NAIL ON THE FUCKING HEAD WITH THIS ONE. THEY MADE JAYCE A MASSIVE JERK.

Seriously, though. I say that coming from miles away. Had to use the "brilliant but pretentious" cliche. Christ.

We haven't seen much of Caitlyn to downright decide whether she is an uptight snob. She just seems to be very strict, and unlike Camille, she acts like she has a stick up her ass because she has to. She's a female in a position of power, and a sheriff at that. Nobody would respect her if she was nice and sweet to everyone. She needs to be Strict and sure about herself, or else she'll be destroyed as a result.
