Honest opinion, where do you prefer wings on champions? (Poll)

Since Star Guardian Soraka (dating back with memory) Riot has been doing this thing where they've been putting wings on champions lower backs instead of there upper backs. Many people joke around about it looking like butt wings, but from the over-top perspective League has, it practically does look like butt wings and is primarily one of the main reasons I still don't own SG Soraka, the only Raka skin (and its counter part) I don't own.

Long story short, the Morg visual updates hit and I can't help but to feel like not only do the wings look overall worse being lower back, but in a lot of skins the wings directly lost a lot of detail and design. Specifically Ghost Bride and Lunar Wraith's wings took a major hit. So I was just curious on what others thought; what are your wing preferences?

Well when Angels have more then one pair of wings they need them on the shoulders or closer to the butt so the wings can do their purpose - to cover a part of the angel's body (6-winged angels don't fly just bcs they need all 3 pairs to cover some part of the body). The lower wings hide the legs of the 6-winged angels. If these wings were all the way on the shoulder blades they would have to be much longer to reach all the way to the bottom of the feet. So to stay true to a 6-winged angels visulas they had to put the lower pair closer to the butt. As I am a sucker for demons and angel mythology I like it that way.
