Dragon sorceress Zyra?

uhm I'm a bit dissapointed... mainly because it seems like the skins team pushed for a dragon theme Zyra skin when the skin itself looks AWESOME for a void theme... the feel it has as a xenomorph is incredible, yet she summons dragons??? it doesn't really make sense, specially not with he purple palette, imagine it in red/yellow as the other dragonslayer skins and you have a much more coherent skin but in purple it feels dissapointing that it has nothing to do with the void :S

agreed. looks like they just wanted to bruise zyra in a dragon-theme. well her model is "ok", but her abilities look weird af.

yeah everything about her is cool, the animations and all but the thematic is just all over the place... I mean, dragon eggs that you hatch but they have a short lifespan and on top of that only the head protrudes out? I mean, poor dragons :S

just go and read **Riot KateyKhaos ** comments about this (which are many) maybe some of them will enlighten u. (for me she writes very polite and kind, but there are some weird justifications for me. Like, they wanted to go more "fancy fantasy" and in return lose more functionality etc.pp)

they will change a few things, but the eggs seem to stay close to what they are atm. Ult unfortunately too.

uhm I just read it, I was hoping she would pop in this thread but it's k

I do understand why they would push a bit further with the color scheme, my only real concern isn't even the ult or the eggs (I love how the eggs look xD) my concern is that the dragons don't fully protrude from the egg... and it ends up looking like snakes with egg bodies as opposed to dragons :S and snakes with egg bodies is something that you'd expect from the alien part of the IP, the void!

It is a ton of work though to model a fully fledged dragon (even if tiny) and also accommodate it to the shape of Zyra's plants, so it is understandable I guess

They should take away this skin before release, rework it, and bring it back to us as Void Zyra.

imagine it in red/yellow as the other dragonslayer skins

Did someone forget Vayne? She is blue remember.

she is indeed blue, though, visually she has so much more going on as a dragonslayer than just her color though, even if she looks more scantily clad than anything else, Zyra skin for this skin (lol) is purple :S if Kassadin wasn't connected to the void through lore would you say he's a dragon warlock??? I wouldn't O.o
