why does almost every female champion

Kiokami··5 votes·5,019 views

have phatass titties

for example Akali how are you gonna tell me that those phat titz aren't counter-productive to a ninja? Vi is lifting those 50 lb hextech gloves a hundred times a day. those phat tittaes will burn away quick and turn into pecs.

just seems like if you want to be a top tier fighter/warrior/assassin, having big heavy massive titz hurts more than it helps.

last thing ill say is, i've never seen a girl with big tits run fast.MissFortune MissFortune MissFortune MissFortune MissFortune MissFortune

olympic athletes don't have huge tits either.

sure seems like riots going with the whole "sex sells" thing right now.

Jinx is the exception, but to be honest she caters to the "LOL EDGY!1!!!1OFFENSIV!1!!!!21ONE" demographic.

i'm of course referring to the humanoid ADULT ones, so shitposters that say Anivia Poppy RekSaiAnnie just get out

edit: i feel like this is getting downvoted because people think i'm a part of the "stop objectifying women" thing. i'm not.

i just think it makes absolutely no sense that the best female warriors runeterra has to offer all have huge DD tits. big boobs are highly impractical in combat and for movement.

No it's not. But extreme female bodybuilders do lose the natural shape of their breasts as the muscle dominates. (In other words, there is more muscle than the fat and mammary glands, and so their chests look more like slabs of muscle with a faint reminder.)

Note that Vi is not an extreme bodybuilder. Illaoi comes closest, but she's more naturally herculean. (Or divinely herculean? Who knows.)

The last champion that Riot released with a clear female physique was Lissandra, in April 2013. Nearly 3 years ago! All female champions released since then have clearly a different body type Jinx Kalista RekSai Kindred Illaoi Even the last few champions before that Vi Quinn Nami have their bazompers a lot less prevalent then older champions like Sona and MF.

The thing is, this is a fantasy game, and people will try to make characters look, well, fantastic or desireable in many ways. For males this means a lot of nearly unobtainable muscle, social highground or visible hardship and for women smooth skin, spotless face, shiny hair and some overexaggerated female traits, like hips and boobs.

That being said, Riot clearly tries to have a lot more different female body types as of late, and that's nice.

i addressed jinx. the other 3 after jinx i said HUMANOID. kalista is a spirit. rek'sai is a void beast. kindred is the emobidment of death of something? and illaoi is realistic for what a warrior woman would look like muscles/body type wise.

Kalista and kindred are humanoid... You do realize that yordles and Nasus and Ahri are humanoid too, right?

Besides, you missed the point; This is a fantasy game, so some girls just have some unpractically huge bossom. But Riot is making the girls more diverse anyways. Your criticism is over 3 years late.

i guess poppy isn't a YORDLE. you know a completely different species. kindred is the embodiment of death kalista is humanoid, but i mean come on she's a spirit. a spirit with big tits would look ridiculous.

SilverSquid4 votes

Poppy is a yordle, yordles are humanoid. Kindred ARE the embodimend of death, but lamb is humanoid. Kalista is a spirit. A humanoid spirit.

Also, don't you dare judge a spirit based on their cupsize. That's mean.

Humanoid =/= Human

Everything that somewhat resembles a human-esque bodytype is humanoid. That basically means: Walks on 2 legs, has 2 arms and obviously a head.

Overall there are several reasons: -if a person is born with big boobs,then thats that. Yes it would likely be better for akali if she had smaller breasts,but its not like she could choose her breast size.

-Riot focused a lot more on fanservice in the early days,thus we've got many champs with huge racks.

-In the earlier days their tech was more limited,giving female champs big breasts was an easy way to make the champ more feminine,so they were easier to design that way

-It simply fits for certain character types,like seductresses (Ahri Cassiopeia MissFortune) or physical powerful champions (Illaoi Vi,though illaois aren't even that big,her muscles are bigger than her breasts )

with those big tits i doubt she'd be agile enough to even be a ninja. it thematically makes ZERO sense. how the fuck are you supposed to recover from swinging your weapon quickly when your massive slushie tits are flopping around under that thin cloth outfit ninjas wear? you're not. them 20 lb titties are gonna yank at you, and you gon lose your balance.

Look at Akali's model. Those aren't going to be a hindrance any time soon.

You know there was actually a class of female ninjas that fought nude (or with little upper body covering) in order to distract their predominately make opponents?

How come roughly all humanoid male champions look muscular or attractive? Why can't they make more fat, ugly, or malnourished champions to cater to me?? Why is this fantasy video game not like real life????

Urgot and gragas

urgot is a machine monster and gragas is one champion. I demand more fat disgusting ugly humanoid champions to cater to me or I will be offended and make a long lengthy post about how riot is sexist for not pandering to my insecurities

GreenLore1 votes

Urgot is a cyborg though,so he is a human,just a disfigured one. And well muscles make kinda sense,they are pretty much essential for fighting.

And I wouldn't say that Swain Singed Zilean are attractive or muscular.(Jhin might also count,but we don't know what he looks like)

Disgusting ugly champions are both unprofitable and also have a negative visual impact in game, which is in turn also unprofitable.

One word: Money. Riot can't do anything but think about money, can't even be bothered to look at their God damned game. Thing is, sex sells, especially feminine sexuality.

So, of course Riot would make people look like they have balloons under their skin. Even if it doesn't make sense.

SithesisLord3 votes

Ummm, Akali's breasts are pretty small on her current splash art and model. It´s most likely an A cup.

For Vi, well...last i checked Ronda Rousey wasn´t flat chested. Besides, Vi's most likely a woman who eats a lot, but exercises a lot whenever she can to compensate. D cup. Probably bigger.

Leona, Kayle and Diana seem to have big ones, but that´s their armor. I´m pretty sure they all have B cups. C cups, tops.

MF squeezes hers into that top, so that might make her run better.

Jinx is flat chested, but heck she's from Zaun. That´s like, steampunk Chernobyl or something like that.

Olympic athletes seem to not have big boobs. In fact, some have, but much like MF, squeeze them in order to minimize their effect on performance by wrapping a long bandage around them real tight.

CrimsonCobra33 votes

It's simply sex-appeal. I feel like Riot is trying to break away from the necessity and include more variety for their female champions, but games have been this way for a long time due to monetary supplementation. A decent length of time spent on the internet, say in an art forum like DeviantArt or watching Anime will show you that it happens rather regularly in other arenas as well.

what if my(and a lot of other guys) fantasy girl doesn't have massive DD tits? maybe i like a nice C cup or even a B cup.

if i want a nice fantasy that involves big tits and fat asses, ill go to pornhub.

If that's what you want, go look for it elsewhere. You're not one to tell game creators what they can and can't design their characters to look like.

i was just asking why i wasn't saying i was offended or saying what i wanted.

i personally think its incredibly stupid to give a ninja character huge tits and a big ass. that would turn some fuckin' heads, and as a ninja YOU DO NOT WANT THAT.

And I answered: It's fantasy. It's what the creators wanted with the character. If you don't like it, no one really cares, but that's the answer.

the creators wanted the best way to get pre-pubescent little boys to spend money on their game.

I'm actually not sure what you mean by big tits. When I imagine big tits in league, I think of MissFortune.

As for body type not making sense: It's a fantasy game. Fantasy usually avoids certain laws of reality because it looks "cool"

Best example of this would be the big sword phenomenon.

http://img11.deviantart.net/aafb/i/2015/176/a/0/tryndamere_by_jasonchanart-d8yrmyl.jpg

Tryndamere's sword is more of a slab of metal. It would be too heavy to use properly, let alone with one hand. Darius's axe has the same problem and Draven's...weapons are also very unrealistic.

But they are cool.

Now what is cool or interesting is very relative, but some things do seem in common among the general audience. Very large swords are common amongst fantasy fiction (more so in comics and manga rather than literature). And games used (and probably still mainly focus towards) a male audience. So Riot in making characters probably decided, "We need sexy chicks"

Riot has admitted that they used the same model of most of their female characters. This was saving resources as they did not have the technology they have today in their first few years. But now they do and with the introduction of Illaoi I look forward to more female champions with more realistic or variety in their models.

I'd like female champions that have body types like Sion and Gragas (obviously not outright copying). But I don't want them to have those body types for the sake of having those body types. I (and a lot of people) want those body types to make sense for them.

Now a lot of past champions may not follow this desire (Like Shyvana, but I guess that's dragon genetics), but it takes a lot of resources to redo old models. Unless there is a specific reason to update the model (which usually requires new animations, which are only added in VGUs) then they won't update them.

Currently this is the problem that Pantheon and Mordekaiser face. Pizza feet.

You forgot Illaoi and Kalista.

KrugLyfe2 votes

Akali is pretty flat...

DeloricVI2 votes

You forgot Illaoi Tristana and Lulu

wait a minute...

Anyway, the reason these champions look like this is because what riot had planned for them. Is it pandering? Probably. Should you enjoy these champions less because their builds don't make as much sense when you consider their character or fighting style? Probably not. Seriously, who zooms in close enough to notice this shit in the first place? Or is the splash art on the loading screen too harrowing for you to stare at without picking it apart and asking yourself about their... ahem "phatass titties"?

I mean, it's not like Riot hasn't changed silly things in the past... need we revisit Sejuani's bikini armor? Yeah, that would be very effective in the sub-zero temperatures of the freljord. So they fixed it.

At the end of the day, these questions are pointless, because you know why riot did it and you know it's not going to change. Seriously, what is the point of this thread?

I'm honestly confused as to what people think these threads could possibly accomplish.

What about:

Fiora Illaoi Janna Jinx Kalista Karma Kayle (depends on skin) Lissandra (depends on skin) Leona Lux (depends on skin and regular model) Nami Orianna Quinn Riven Shyvana Soraka
