Janna | New Champion - Legends of Runeterra

[@BoyDugo02]

And I thought Wild Rift rocked with her redesign. This look not only makes her feel like she really belongs in her region but it also fits her lore of being a spirit that helps the deprived citizens of Zaun.

[@BowserisOK]

Her design looks so freakin' good, but I feel like she should become an Origin champion rather than staying a Piltover/Zaun champion. Her design doesn't really scream Piltoverian or Zaunite. Almost mistook her faction emblem for Shurima.

[@somanith8372]

​@@BowserisOKPnZ used to be a part of Shurima + she has somewhat of a Shuriman origin, but almost ceased to exist when Azir ordered people to stop believing in her

[@BoyDugo02]

@@BowserisOK Geographically, Zaun is connected to Shurima since there is a Shuriman tomb at the bottom of Zaun. Ezreal used to explore it. So her design here makes sense even if she is PnZ in her gameplay.

[@dieptrieu6564]

@@BowserisOKExactly, she feel more like shurima at first glance

[@SilencePandaa]

@@dieptrieu6564 Tbf Zaun and Shurima are next to each other so Janna's design makes sense. There's also some lore behind Janna and Azir iirc

[@caiosilveira8392]

For those that are confused with “Shuriman design”. Janna IS from Shurima! Her original name is Jan'ahrem and she’s an actual Shuriman Goddess… But with the ascension of Azir and his subordinates Janna and her faith was banned from Shurima as he didn’t want to “share” adoration. While Azir and other “new gods” of Shurima had divine powers they’re not truly divine as their ascension is artificial. Janna actually is a god, and losing her faithful caused her to lose her powers, but she found a new purpose with the sailors as they needed protection from the dangerous seas. Her new home was then at a costal city in shurima that would in the future be Zaun/Piltover.

[@madpostman]

I'm pretty sure LoR and LoL share the same creative dev team (being at the the same company), so the updated visual design that Janna is getting in LoR should match the one Janna would get in League (eventually ^_^). This looks to be the case with the upcoming Jax visual update in League.

[@dizzyheads]

​@@madpostman That's if she gets an update

[@jawz9455]

Janna Lvl 1 being her mortal form and Lvl 2 being her god form is so 👌! I love it!

[@zerlichr426]

I think it's more lvl 2 is her normal form when lvl 1 is form friendly to people. Aka her peace and combat form. This kinda fits as more friendly demigod. Also like her W bird

[@kianbrusselbach6106]

Hmm with what we know about how spirits work I offer this explanation. Her level 1 form is how she looks currently, only having few people believe in her so she is in a weakened form, her level 2 is her at her height of power as many people prayed to her for good wind

[@zerlichr426]

The Greek Goddess aesthetic mixed up with the Piltovian/Zaun look is one of a kind with her here!

[@mv7860]

I love almost everything about her. I think the design is strong and she feels more like a goddess. Only point of critique is her voice for me. Like yes her voicelines were a bit meh and unrelated in LoL but i liked her breathier voice more. Now she had a deep strong voice but lacks the gentle and breathy voice. I know its a small point but it made me rlly love Janna in league.

[@SlowChemicalXV]

My thoughts too, her voice doesn't *feel* like Janna at all... I was expecting a more mysterious, quiet goddess, not Kayle. Still, great redesign other than that complaint from my perspective

[@itsgonnabeokay9341]

wdym Kayle? I didn't hear her say anything about justice@@SlowChemicalXV

[@theshorttyler]

I love the voice change because it showcases who she is. She’s a GOD. Her voice should BOOM in your ears. When she saves you, you should feel her comfort and confidence in all aspects, even her voice. She shouldn’t sound like she’s a little girl being overtaken by the wind. She COMMANDS the wind.

[@quizzlybear]

I love her voice. Her voice in LoL is very immature and childlike while her voice here befits a god of her status. She's giving grown woman not little girl.

[@JunDageki]

@@theshorttylerthat’s like 70% of the female characters tho, also she was more about being a supporting ally than someone who is a powerful god, back then she was like she would be glad to be there for you while new Janna feels like you have to kneel and beg to receive her help, her old gentle and breathy voice felt more fitting to her wind and support theme, I agree with op, great rework but old va nailed it more.

[@jackanasaurus5905]

I'm literally happy crying, her voice is just so majestic

[@gexianhen]

she now sound like a motherly caring person. that fit much more her lore of being a ancient but bening spirit that want to help humans

Having your champion card announcing that you have the out is probably the most badass thing you can do in any card game.

[@lopezcontrerasabrahamemili794]

what?

[@Digidude0]

Are you referring to when Janna does her Voice Line after Nilah is drawn? If so, she probably doesnt say it when Nilah is drawn, but rather when she's summoned. The only reason we hear it here is for the ambience/cinematic effect

[@swisschese1323]

Oh ye nevermind I have just turned on sub for the first time, her voice line was "I cast *thee* out", still funny tho

​​@@minichips5128then she looks like she should look like since she is from Shurima but left the region

[@madpostman]

Since Janna's original design didn't include green, I believe her new design incorporates green in order to better show that she's from Zaun (as green is Zaun's primary color). That's super cool! Her wearing gold could represent Piltover as well (gold being one of Piltover's primary colors), though the gold is likely more tied to her Shuriman roots (Zaun formerly being a Shurima seaport, Osha Va'Zaun).

[@3takoyakis]

It's mostly shurima If based on just green and gold Then most ppl from zaun and piltover lol

@@lunahri4173 I'm fine with recalls if they are used proactively (kinda like lee sin but without nexus damage), and i think other regions (like noxus or bandle city) kinda deserve it too. Because if you think about it, recalling enemies has a similar theme to Overwhelm (you get thrown so hard you end up out of the board or dealing colateral damage) so i was hoping this will eventually end up in someone like Blitzcrank (resembling his E in League) or even Alistar, just not some "i won't move the entire game and recall/stun all your board" Karma thing.
