Empyrean Malzahar's voidlings look SO DUMB oh my god |

[@TakumiTheFAUSTScientist]

NGL Those Voidlings looked like a rejected low class Power Rangers/Tokusatsu monsters and that's saying A LOT

[@ShinigamiKristak]

More like rejected Unversed designs from Kingdom Hearts

[@kashtrey]

Every time I see tokusatsu I always read it as tonkatsu and get hungry. Lol

The spell effects enveloping him really give "I baked a horrible cake, but I'll drown it in sprinkles until it looks good".

As a major fan of Malzahar, all I want is a model update.

Now that i think about it, Malzahar would make a really solid alien parasite skin. Where the voidlings are literally helmets with bug legs sticking out of the head

[@philiphunt-bull5817]

This is the only skin in the line that actually looks as colorful as the splash art suggests, so I propose that it deserves an honorary A for "not being a lie"

[@LabRatz-Ivor]

Malzahar skins should always be centered on the voidlings, as should his gameplay

[@lillyie]

its sad that he kinda suffers from shen syndrome where his ult is so strong his basic abilities have to be weaker to compensate

[@the_last_ballad]

​@@lillyie The thing is, Malz cannot kill in a 1v1 without the voidlings, they _are_ a ton of his damage. And yet they are so ridiculously frail.

[@nick-playercharacter8583]

The voidlings look like Corrin's dragon head doing an impression of that one scene in The Thing, and not in a good way.

[@bendonatier]

I take umbrage with "Gundam head" being used as short hand for big robot head, if only because the one identifying feature of a Gundam tends to be the very prominent V shaped fin on all the proper Gundams.

[@IsaacIsaacIsaacson]

they've literally got a weird V going on

[@bendonatier]

​@@IsaacIsaacIsaacson yeah but it's the wrong kind of V

[@skniezee7448]

[@timothymclean]

@@IsaacIsaacIsaacson That's not a V, that's two diagonal lines with a gap in the middle where the face goes. It's not a Gundam head, it's a legally-distinct-from-Gundam head.

Those voidlings look like the basic flood unversed from kingdom hearts

[@katherineperrin4817]

those were my thoughts EXACTLY

[@xenrusxenomorph2268]

They basically are. That's wild cause you could do a little with the unversed.. that they are skittish and wild with chaotic energy. Honestly this makes me think of an unversed skin line for the universe and how it could give life to the champions.

[@rafaelfigfigueiredo2988]

Always funny when the grade of a skin is getting better with each passing word but one gimmick made bad makes skyen ragequit and the grade drops to the Earth's magma

[@pastelguts6182]

Okay but that splash art.... the subtle pop art shading...... god i love it

[@tpon651]

The voidlings kinda look like unversed from kingdom hearts

[@samandcheese_1225]

they look so stupid and goofy... and I kinda love them because they look so stupid they're cute like axolotls or a puppy trying to be intimidating.

[@18Krieger]

The Minions make the skin far better because they are so bad. Absolute Meme potential. Like a bunch of Minimegatrons attacking with head butts.

[@Sploberrie]

These voidlings give me the same ick as looking at a real bug moving up-close

[@redaether9671]

The description of the voidlings sent me to the afterlife 😂

Those voidlings look like they should be unversed enemies you fight in Kingdom Hearts birth by sleep tbh

[@YuzuClem]

They could make the voidling as a floating colors, but naaaaaah, apparently super sentai mook is more interesting

[@EvanFarshadow]

The voidlings look like rejected Unversed from Kingdom Hearts 😂

[@drowknight7521]

Honestly whenever Malzahar gets a visual update of some kind I hope they replace his Voidlings with those Void Fish from the Lavender Sea to connect him more to Bel'veth as he is her herald, plus the ocean creature theming is something I think Malzahar, Kassadin, and Kai'sa and maybe even Kog'maw could all benefit from as it would be symbolic of how out of place the Void is in the deserts of Shurima

[@northernalpine4350]

Imagine if they made the minions look like the Mimics from prey with empyrean Aesthetics, would've been absolutely perfect

[@mas8705]

I wonder how forgettable he is when it feels like he needs as much of an update as anyone, but his name doesn’t seem to pop up. It is hard to say what his defining trait in his skins are, and while I’d like to not suggest it is the minions he can summon, that is kind of his thing: to summon the voidlings. But when they look this goofy, it kind of undermines whatever they were trying to go for with the skin in general. Overall, this poor guy needs some love (like a good chunk of the cast that has flown under the radar for a considerable sum of time now).

[@WildKamuran]

i wish they update champs that have gotten love elsewhere (zilien/nidalee/rumble in Legends of runeterra) or looks better in wild rift faster. (i hope they QOL Teemo Move quick from Wild rift into his current w when they finally update him)

[@darkAwesome100]

Excuse me, these are my emotional support voidlings They just look kinda cute here, i love them

[@oicmorez4129]

I wish the voidlings were slimes, but that's too much work for a skin of this rarity... This skinline looks like your car leaked some fuel onto the road, they should lean into that a bit more

[@YondaMoegi]

I like the aura around him, finally some colour in lower body in these skins

[@angelicgamer131]

The voidlings look like kingdom hearts birth by sleep unversed

[@daddypudding9074]

Reject Empyrean, embrace Snowday

[@ambion19]

They should dona reverse Mal, where you control a giant voidling that summons loads of tiny Mals

[@andylopez4075]

Okay, those are DEFINITELY some unversed or dream eaters ass designs from KH

I personally like his head design, I really like the twisty look to it.

His snow winter skin with the poro voidlings is his best skin.

[@SuperZeve]

Saw the title, was the model and thought how bad could they be... they don't even have anything, it's like someone took the old ones and painted them with block colours. It's sad really

[@Mikey-ve6wd]

Mal should summon baby reksais, velkozes cho'gaths, kha'zixes, and kogmaws. The smallest voidlings of their kinds. Bonus points if they have unique passive effects.

[@markman11111]

They look like the bloodborne hat

[@TheSuperboy139]

I love your ramble over stuff it is wuite interesting ♨️ i hope this counts as water theme xD

[@foolofdaggers7555]

I don’t play League but I think it would have been better if they gave the voidlings a dual-tailed scorpion motif maybe? Might work better with the animation, so it’s the tails making contact instead of the headbutt.

[@quivertheprotogen7905]

The voiding are almost certainly modeled after the Ing from Metroid Prime 2: Echoes and they thought slapping the Empyrean stylish armor on them would be a good idea. For some reason.

[@MarissaFloro]

I do hope he gets a Star Nemesis skin in the future after seeing this skin

[@Skroopy]

Hey, another gundam mention! Gundam design analysis when?👀

[@Weiin]

I kinda want to see a skin that redesigns malz ult like instead of his face, why not a hand of energy that summons mini voidlings knawing at the target or summoning a bladed void tentacle like the new baron, constricting and ripping the target

[@KennedySmith-k2e]

Cant wait for you to rate the new Fizz and Milio skin

[@ags8507]

im still amazed how company like riot takes a whole year to modernize a single champion, at this rate it will take decades before they finish giving modern models and kits to their older champs

[@tomato6138]

Still thinking this was a missed opportunity to make it a Legendary.

[@the_last_ballad]

My favorite Malz skin. But the voidlings would be 200% better if they were blobs of the Empyrean fire on top of the little skuttle legs they have.

[@A.C_B.]

NO! the voidlings look cute, and that's a positive! You will not shame me out of enjoying a goofy element in an otherwise serious aesthetic. That shit is my favourite.

[@wonderpoof7743]

I gave up Malzahar when they turned his strong minions into glorified gold generators that die instantly if you look at them. They used to be really strong and ad urf malzahar was absolutely hilarious. Now they die to the slightest breeze. They need to give the voidlings their strength back.

you know a champ that would have a MUCH better empyrean skin than malzahar? Vel'koz. He would look so good

[@Wormy_fren]

I get those criticisms. But luke They look so adorable. They're like a worse dragoon (dragoon is peak cuteness in my eyes). And it's hard to not love them slightly just because of how dumb they look. Like there is not a singlular thought behind their eyes. God those voidlings are adorable. But I'll assume that you cant equip them to another skin which is unfortunate.

[@ajking1017]

I’m sorry but the shitty quality voidlings against the nice design of malzahar looks hilariously bad. Like this is enough to enter “so bad it’s good” territory. It’s almost like they’re breaking the 3rd wall by making the voidlings have a shittier design while malazahar himself has such a striking, charming design. I still wouldn’t buy this skin but if I was gifted it, I would absolutely use this skin.

[@UnluckyGambler]

idk, i kinda like em.

[@Destroyer2150]

Empyrean will always be the worst skin design in the game.
