I think an argument could be made that having a point of vulnerability on her chest could imply a weakness in her heart. I could see her swayed by emotion as the descendants of her sisters confront her. I think it’s good balance having that pale blue there as well to balance out her dark outfit. That being said realistically it doesn’t make sense to have that window there but practicality isn’t always necessary in character design lol.

I like Skyren's thoughts on a redesign where her back is exposed instead. 1. Backless gowns are fancy, fit for an ice queen. 2. It would be ironic how a betrayer has her back exposed. 3. She puts up a covered, impervious front. But once she turns around, its all a facade.

While its true that practicality isn't always necessary in character design, its true because its better to focus on what would enhance the character thematically and direct the consumer to what that design means instead of focusing on what ''wouldn't make sense for them not to have''. Like the big spiky pauldrons are not really practical, they're there for silhouette, composition and to give an even more hostile feel to her. That boob window tho means nothing for Liss' character lol, it doesn't make her more matronly then she already is nor feels like a ''window'' to her humanity. At least to me it feels more like a window to a time where League needed to have at least a little bit of sexy in every lady

BIG CORRECTION HERE: It is never outright stated that the power the watchers granted is the Iceborn power. "Unknown to her sisters, Lissandra struck a deal on their behalf with the god-like entities she had communed with-the Watchers would grant them near-immortality in exchange for preparing Runeterra for the coming of the Void. The three sisters and their most powerful followers were named Iceborn. Those with this ability to withstand the worst of the numbing frost would be spared until the very end." This can be interpreted as the Iceborn being made by the Watchers, but I personally think that is a wrong assumption. It only really tells us that the Iceborn would be spared till the very end, not that the Watchers actually created them in the first place. Necrit spread this interpretation and I still haven't quite forgiven him for it. So yea even if it turns out to be that case, it's safer to just say that the Watchers granted Lissandra and her sisters immortality and promised to spare the Iceborn.
@jimjimson62082 ай бұрын
I think the big distinction is how you interpret 'were named'. I think it is completely valid to read it as them being named Iceborne BY the watchers (which would imply the watchers created them), as opposed to the sentence simply acknowledging that they were already called iceborne. Personally I think the theory that Iceborn were created by the watchers is most likely going to be explicitly confirmed at some point because it is more interesting from a narrative perspective than them kinda just existing. If Iceborne didn't come from the watchers, then riot would have to cook up an entirely new origin in the lore, which seems like a waste when they already have this really cool Faustian bargain set up. TL;DR it isn't 'confirmed' but I think that it is convincing interpretation that makes a lot more narrative sense than the alternative/
@hamdepaf66862 ай бұрын
@@jimjimson6208 I mean Riot does tend to just go with the most popular interpretation by fans, so there is a good chance that this will be made into cannon at some point even if it perhaps wasn't planned from the beginning. My view on it is that Iceborn powers are just a weird power for the Watchers to grant period. Beyond that we really don't need to "cook up" another origin. Iceborn powers seem to be linked with True Ice, that most probably originates from Anivia. Not to mention that the people who are blessed by Ornn and get certain powers from it are called Hearthborn if I remember correctly. (I think there was also one for just "normal" humans that ended with "born" so I may mix things up here, I know I did before) I also remember a Rioter saying that there would be other True Elements like Fire for example, but they may have since scrapped that plan (or just fired the Rioter that had the plan to begin with) Generally Riot tends to keep things vague and unexplained if it's not really needed for a story, as to keep them options when they revisit stuff. That's also why I think that the text didn't intend to explain the origin of Iceborn, because there really isn't much reason to explain it by this point.

I think Lissandra's lore really is sad, though. She's an 'The ends justify the means' character, but in her case its true. The watchers will destroy reality, and the only way to stop them is by keeping them frozen and asleep. She has to maintain the facade that she is helping the watchers in some way, because if she doesn't, the watchers will find out. She walks through dreams, and brings the watchers in their slumber with her, to keep them asleep. If what she was doing was common knowledge, people might dream about it, and then the watchers would know. But the watchers have never been a coherent thing, and it really messes with the lore. They were defeated on the howling abyss, but not really? But also they haven't entered reality yet? But they also clearly have? And they are asleep but also they are so mad because they got woken up before? Are they world ending threats, or something you can beat by throwing them into a big hole? The watchers are the biggest hole in the voids lore. I kind of miss the days before the watchers lore, because the void conceptually was more interesting as more of a force of nature that warped things and spit out monsters. It still does that, but having a 'mastermind' behind it sort of reduces the existential threat of unreality. Its something that can theoretically be beaten. Then you add Asol and space targon lore, sealing up void holes in space, and it sort of really doesn't make any sense.

Being sexy has nothing to do with their characters in fact in cases like kaisa or Cassiopeia actually MOVE THEIR CHARACTERS BACKWARDS story telling through character design is important and it should always be a priority when it comes to design a champion just think if jinx , Taliyah or ilaoi would be as iconic and beloved by the community if they had gigantic boobs and wear bikinis to battle it would make zero sense and contradicts who they are as people

Lissandra is my favorite League of Legends champion, both in appearance and in her bio. She shows by her very appearance that she is a villain, and so does the entire Freljord. She sacrificed her sisters and their army to save all of Runeterra. The entire Freljord considers her a witch who needs to be destroyed, and no one suspects that she wanders through people's dreams every day to keep the Watchers asleep for as long as possible. I really like her redesign in LoR, she looks elegant and menacing at the same time, and I absolutely do not like how she was drawn in WR (clearly done half-heartedly). I really hope that if rito ever makes a series like Arcane, only about the Freljord, they will reveal Lissandra as an anti-hero with a sad fate, which is actually not as terrible as everyone around thinks, and not make her a classic villain like: "I'm evil, and I want to bury the whole world under a thick layer of ice"

I like the boob window, because being masked and being the lider of a cult gives her a dominatrix-esque vibe that I -do- believe fits her, she essentially runs a cult of (seems like) mostly just men, men that are so enthralled by her that have decided to adopt her appearance as iconography, in the form of their helms, in fact, there's not a single artwork with a female Frostguard. She doesn't need leather and whips to drive the point home. She is about dominating the Frelijord and manipulating people while ruling with an iron fist even if is solely for the purpose of stopping the watchers. There is an strange element of worship towards her from her faithful. So to put it simply: Character is essentially about domination and power > to achieve domination she has an organization of what is depicted as only men to do her bidding > domination also comes in the form of manipulation and distraction, tactic which she employs often with the Avarosan and Winter's Claw = These concepts or ideas that can be very close to sexuality. She's a matriarch, with an army of followers that never had an explanation as to how they came to be. She has cleavage not because it's not a fan service element, it's a worshipping element, just like you mentioned "She looks like a statue." just like people are mesmerized by the iconography and beauty of Michellangelo's David, that can be something also present for Lissandra. This is would be a proper explanation as to why the Frostguard wear that horned headress, even if it truly doesn't have any practicality for them as they're not blind, out of loyalty and faithfulness. It's not hard to see why themes of power, domination, matriarchy, ocultism and manipulation give room for a sexual element in her design.

I will argue one point with you: if you read the story about how she feeds herself to the Watchers' dreams to keep them sated, it becomes very clear that she is sacrificing her own wellbeing for her mission. The rest of what you say about her is still true, which makes her such a fantastic conundrum of an antagonist. We can resent her for causing the problem, we can resent her selfishness, arrogance, and callousness, but she is still doing what she says she's doing. How do we beat the "final boss", when winning would lead to our own self-destruction? (She is also capable of kindness. That same story has a scene in which she stays with a dying man in his dream, so he won't die alone.)

It could also just be that's riots baseline so I'm just so used to it, but I kinda have just been filling it in, in my mind I guess. Not something that kills her vibe for me, even after you brought it to my attention. Then again, I kinda do the same thing with Evelynn of all characters, where with her I know she's made for sex appeal but it's her power and dominance that draws me in. I find Eves vibe more sexy than her curves to the point that I just don't think of her as sexually attractive.

Ik im like 2 months late to this and no one would care if i made a comment about this or not But there’s a simple fix to lissandra’s story to make her that much more relatable. All they have to do is instead of having liss caused the arrival of the void be an intentional decision, why not make it an unintentional decision, caused indirectly by either sisters or the watchers themselves, maybe in the beginning she can see the watcher’s powerful telekinesis power being able to bend the vision of future (kinda like malzer’s getting corrupted by belveth), causing her to be fearful and dread them, and then in the light of that panic and fear, the watchers make use of it, not only manipulating liss’s sisters but liss herself as well, sowing doubt and guilt between them and in the end it’s through that doubt and deception (say the watchers manipulated her vision into thinking it’s her sister who would cause the apocalypse), she would then in turn take up the watcher’s offer of both power and “redemption” for her sisters, and it comes in form of the void’s arrival. That way her hero complex makes sense, that way her sacrifices would be just and unjust, cause it’s all a lie, and this entire time she has been paying for the prices she doesnt even know she’s paying, cause all she has been doing is exactly what the watchers has been planning, but they didnt expect her to be that willing to go that far to stop them and halt their arrival. It both shows she’s human at the end, through heart and conviction she tried her best to fix her mistakes, but still just a pawn in a massive plan for an even bigger enemy, it fixes her inhumanity hiccups and builds up the terrifying power of the watchers.

Wasn't Swain made substantially more attractive when he got reworked? He used to be this hobbling old man. Also, Lissandra's lore is bad, like BFA/SL sylvanas bad. "I can do this laundry list of despicable evil acts, because there's actually some even greater generic evil threat!"

To be fair, Lissadra was created a while back, pretty sure she'd not or it be less if she was more modern but remember, she was made back when that was the ideal female characters. And while I will disagree with him with the whole freljordian mages are boring; playstyle-wise, (btw, Nicky there are only two mages in the freljord apart from Aurora... And anivia is only boring if people are into the the 1v9, heal too much, billion dashes, champions...), Lissandra is very interesting lore wise, think about it, she basically is the reason darkin exist too.

You don't understand, the boob window signifies a window unto her heart. That even if she's cold and imposing, she still has a heart within that darkness, a soft spot as you will to the people she cares about.

The thing that bothers me most about Lissandra's kit is that she's a dive-mage but she just fucking dies if you dive in. Like you're intended to go in with your heavily telegraphed E and then root with the W and maybe R but like.... She doesn't have any sustain like swain? Maybe if her W was ranged or her passive left frozen effigies of killed champions and/or siege minions & epic monsters she could sap health from idk

If I could rework Lissandra, I'd go full mage support. Support is the only lane where she gets any value out of her passive, so what if they leaned in to that. Make her ult able to target teamates, maybe even make her E work like a moving thresh lantern that teamates can grab onto. She's already an extremely defensive mage, all she needs is a few extra tools and you've got a fun peel support that isn't just Lulu or Alistair.

If i were trying to make myself the hero of the story, I'd probably use clothing that depicts me in an attractive figure as well. Makes the story more appealing. Alternatively, if im an ancient ice witch living like a bad bitch in the frozen north, Imma dress the part. Full on supervillain fit right there

Her "new" passive is terrible. They took a type of ability that was deemed to be outdated already and decided it was an upgrade. She just just have resets.

Exactly also the "arguments" are: "it doesnt make sense" or "it looks bad" its so subjective like wtf "whats the points of the boobs?" whats the point of no boobs? you literally could say the same to him and both are the same in argumental value is he saying you cant be serious or majestic with boobs? isnt that a you problem? also if it works to interest more people IT DOES HAVE A POINT TO IT LIKE WHAT ARE WE SAYIIIIING we have to remember RIOT is a company they need to SELL and ANYONE KNOWS SEX SELLS but tbh i also agree with need less sexual characters that could match well with their enviroment and behaviour but its so annoying when he says this EVERY VIDEO WITHOUT ACTUAL ARGUEMNTS "i feel like this o like that" or "i think X or Y"

i mean a lot of leagues characters have the issue of being needlessly sexualized with zero point. for chars like eve and ahri, yeah makes sense. for characters like MF having a crop top and that weird splash art it doesn't make sense at all, compared to her outfit in LOR. I think that is what he is more or less talking about. Theres a way to add sexiness to a character while incorporating it into a character's design without going "hmm yess lets add boob window and crop top" when the character realistically wouldn't wear that or it just is not necessary to their design.
