I saw some of the earlier concept art and her clothes were a lot more modest, which I liked. She was literally vialed, like covering the majority of her face, in one of them.

I still like what they settled on though, I think the other ideas fundamentally wound up looking too Eastern for the Targon/Demacia aesthetics.

i think bluedekaiser is fine in terms of colour, but the chest piece and especially the helmet make him so much less intimidating. it removes his massive presence that the og splash art has, and makes him look like an old cartoon villain.

[@joshuacox5817]

They changed him away from undead because China censors anything death related. Undead censorship is extremely weak minded.

[@ethanstyant9704]

I think in LoR they're leaning much more heavily into the undead overlord aspect of his character which I love but it does sacrifice the undying frontline warrior warlord of the League design

[@ArukiTsukaru]

Honestly, I was relieved that they turned him blue, since a lot of people keep mistaking him for a shadow isles champ bc of that color scheme

[@aR0ttenBANANA]

The colour isnt the issue. It's the ugly-ass helmet@@ArukiTsukaru

[@Whyfoos]

fr I like colour too but he seriously just went from Dark Souls boss to your average villain of the week. I might even say old old mord is more intimidating.

[@Whysoshort]

One miner point. Corsets are not what people think they are, and it would make sense for someone who does physical labor to wear one. Corsets offer a lot of spinal support and support the breasts much like bras do. They also protect your hips if they are carrying a heavyweight. The issue was never corsets themselves it was the practice of tight lacing. But if worn properly corsets are not only comfortable, but incredibly supportive.

[@BandoIim]

I just love what they did to Nidalee, maybe 'cause I'm a abs fan, but her design looking really Vastaya and her looking like a real talented hunter instead of a Playboy costume just makes me love her

One concept I would have been partial to for a Janna redesign is retaining her shuriman clothing, BUT instead having her wind staff be an offering gifted to her by her followers in Zaun. It'd basically be a fractured amalgam of scrap metal and stained glass, but she would love it all the same.

[@Airwinsy9948]

I don't like that, I prefer her staff to be an important element in the use of her powers. I liked what they did, they made the staff part of her. But I think it should have been made of crystal like the original design, as a reference to the rarefied air, and that also made it more unique, no other champion uses a crystal staff, now golden staff...there are thousands

[@anthonymorales9869]

@@Airwinsy9948 I understand her staff being an original part of her, but when referring to a God weakened by years of lacking the power of faith, I felt an imperfect design was in order. The Shurimans were forced to abandon Janna just like how the Zaunites continue to be abandoned by their Piltovan neighbors. She is a part of them, so I thought it fitting they be a part of her.

[@Airwinsy9948]

My biggest issue with the Trundle redesign is his size. All of Trundle's stories make pretty explicit mention of his size, or rather lack of for a Troll and a lot of his stories are about overcoming his smaller stature with intellect in order to take over X or Y tribe in a test of strength. Trundle's quite a little guy by Troll standards but he's huge in LoR and a lot of his followers are really small which makes the 1 defining aspect of Trundle that seperates him from every other fantasy Troll completely lost in the transition. Frost Trolls aren't unique, a troll king with a magic weapon isn't unique, a troll working for someone related to eldritch abomination isn't unique but what seperates Trundle from these other fantasy Troll kings is his size.

[@uiu820]

The thing is trundle is small compared to alot of the trolls even in lor all the not beatsticks are short while all the big beefy Stat stick 1s are like 4× the size of a house the only real issue I saw was that trundle doesn't look to different from the other troll other than his club they could have given him true ice armor or something that makes him stand out from the other troll cards

[@BluePhoenix_]

What they did with Xerath is what we call "verschlimmbessern" in germany, which essentially means, you make something worse, by making it better.

[@ArukiTsukaru]

Another day, another great German expression learned

[@FireDarkNinja]

I think a cool concept with Mordekaiser is that he can canonically have a different armour set and appearance for what he looks like in the death realm and what he looks like in Runeterra as they are different personifications of his armour based on when are where they were made. His armour in the death realm is likely his older armour that he envisaged compared to his new armour in Runeterra.

[@warcriminalyes]

You can differentiate by Blue Kaiser being his ornamental armor, and Mordekaiser Green armor being the war one, the one he fights with.

[@madmank7881]

​@@warcriminalyeswhat you said will be a good idea but I still think the blue one is kind of ugly because it looks like a brick but adding on the Regal attributes is good. Also I'll be fine if they changed his ghost energy into a somewhat dark greyish blue colour.

[@warcriminalyes]

@madmank7881 I think blue makes sense. Green is the corrupted shit that Viego made. Blue? Is his death magic, that way you can differentiate his stuff from shadow isles weaklings.

[@gizmogecko117]

The new mordekaiser just doesn't look as tanky i think theres just to many holes in his armor

[@lerobot6180]

Yeah he's no longer a juggernaut but just some blue spirit possessing an armor. I don't like how many gaps he has as well as the floating head.

[@CrazyLikeUhFox]

He looks like Xerath hit the gym

[@flexchagalaga4477]

I don't fully believe that the thing around Riven's waist is a corset, but is more of a fitness belt type of thing that weightlifters use. This is because if Riven's lore it's explained that the runic weapon she has is an extremely heavy weapon. Even though she can wield the heavy blade, it would still take a toll on her body in how you'd swing a blade, whether it be overhead, side to side, etc. She wears that fitness belt (for lack of a better term) to reduce the stress on her lower back for carrying things in an upright position and prevents back hyperextension for overhead lifts (such as swinging her heavy sword). And later on, when she's in exile, she continues to wear it because she helps with heavy labor on farms for Ionian people, where she'd definitely would want to wear such a piece of equipment. Granted this is just me looking at it from a logical standpoint, some of the designs do look a bit off for it to be a fitness belt like I believe. For example, her base model in LoL does look extremely similar to that of a corset, buttons and all. However, in her LoR splash it looks more like a brace for her lower body. Additionally, in the Awaken cinematic it looks like a wrap placed around her lower body to keep her attached to the stand she was chained to. It doesn't help my case that most if not all of Rivem's skins in LoL have either completely gotten rid of the fitness belt, or replaced it with a small belt that would not even be considered as such. That's just my viewpoint on it and felt like sharing it. Keep up the awesome videos!

[@ArukiTsukaru]

Wait I actually really like that take!

[@marcosbaeza5908]

I think medieval corsets accomplished the things you have listed. The historical ones, not the weird, over the skin and super tight ones that the movies show. People wore stuff for reason, either practical or aesthetical.

[@Ray-wz8sg]

I could see the robe for Kayn working better as a way to show maturity, if Riot were to ever further Kayn's character and take him from a cocky show-off to a Kayn who's a little wiser and has less need to prove himself (but they sadly won't since furthering his lore would mean having to choose between Kayn or Rhaast winning and there would be outrage if Riot killed off a champion that people have grown attached to)

[@jynxed66six54]

kayn will never become mature, and thinking he will shows you really dont know what his character is about. kayn is so self absorbed hes able to resist the take-over of a darkin, something not a single other person has ever been able to do. him becoming shadow assassin takes it even further, his cockiness is proven right and he gets the power to prove it.

[@v.s8212]

Yeah him being more clothed makes him look more important, with him being second to Zed and all that, shirtless is more carefree, which he is not so much. That said the robe is lame, they took out all the details from the belt and replaced him with pijamas.

[@v.s8212]

@@jynxed66six54 I don't think "mature" is the right word here, he is cocky but you overestimate how much, Rhaast references a lot how he has doubts and he has a lot of respect for people like Zed and Shen. I'd argue his arrogance is more a facade than anything, both Kayle and Yi call him a scared child in the inside, to say that he can hold on Rhaast only because he is cocky is a disservice to his character, especially when his color story highlights it was his will to live that set him apart from others. Like every character he is not incapable of change, not when his themes revolve around transformation and clear indications he still suffers from a lot of trauma.

You pointed out 2 good things for Mordekaiser - the red and the leg armour, that show noxus. That's it, nothing else of the redesign was good, all the invincibility, that he practicaly oosed was lost, even his mace lost much of its threatheningness. Everything else from his armour was worsened, his new voicelines do not give the impression the ones in LOL do. Look at the other design options, that they looked at. While there were some worse designs, I have no clue how they got this when there were so many other better versions, that retained the things that made Many of the LOR redesign haters love Mordekaiser. (Sorry for the rant, but I needed to get this off my chest)

[@TheOneStooge]

What's weird is he was like "This sucks. This sucks. This part sucks. But his armor looks like it's from Noxus. A Tier." Like what?

[@endaboi4006]

I agree with all of this except the voice part I think they ABSOLUTELY NAILED IT. Don't get me wrong I LOVE mordekaiser voice lines but in league he sounds more chill and monotone which has its perks but in LOR his voice is BOOMING WITH ANGER AND EMOTION like I love his level up voicelines "FIGHT FLEE IT WILL MAKE NOO DIFFERENCE" UGH chills, its not only angrier but also shows of other emotions like confusion in his reply to volibears "Take heed metal man, you speak to a true death maker" with "Death maker? You have nothing to threaten me with" id personally give his new voice a 13/10 while his old voice was a 10/10. his design on the other hand I agree with it just looks weak af, bro looks like xerath.

[@ZergMeTaSWORM]

Thee voice lines definetly missed the mark hard. In League he sounds calm composed absolutely steadfast in his goals, like he knows his victory is inevitable no matter what. In LOR he sounds angry, impatient and short tempered which goes against his lore of literally faking his death and biding his time to comee back stronger. He has such an indominable spirit you couldnt phase him no matter what you did or say.

It would be amazing! Arcane has proven throughout the whole first season how well they deal with female characters, how they are not there to be sexualized or to be a porn parody, but to be human, to be woman who you can see in the strength of your mother, in the love of your girlfriend, in the admiration from your sister. They are not just sex dolls (looking at you, old Caitlyn version) but ACTUAL workers, ACTUAL fighters, ACTUAL creators. Imagine what they would do to Seraphine character? The debate of “she’s only a girly girl champion with no content!” could finally be finished and LoL could definitely use her development from Arcane to the game

Could also add a parallel with Belveth because they both try to look human for completely different reasons.

[@overthemoon34]

​@@anthonymorales9869It's pretty much shown that despite how she looks fully cloaked, she's still human and cares about people, others seem to just ignore that part of her lore.

[@marvinbange1216]

I actually think the new lor trundle goes against his story. Hes kinda the runt of his tribe and was more reliant on his cunning than the brute strength of the average troll. Therefore the more scrawny look in league fits him better than his buff himbo lor look

[@holydoggo4822]

i think that Kayn design may be less of a direct redesign and more of a story progression. While losing the eye does hinder this theory, the level of corruption and how it can be seen on even his more human arm and how he is clearly far more beastial in his mannerisms and those glowing eyes are 100% inhuman and Darkin inspired surely can make this easy to believe as a lore progression design

[@miguelsanchez825]

About Janna ascended looking like Kayle is a fair criticism, but the problem lies in Kayle not looking as Kayle so much. Ever since her redesign removed her Armor in order to get the more generic suite ever she has lacked identity. It makes sense for them to be somewhat similar deity figures but that is all Kayle's LoL rework is that is a problem of Kayle design itself because we've seen her, Morgana and their mother look very similar yet still have their own identity. I pray for a VU for Kayle in lol to make her look more like her mom when she was just an aspect.

[@Airwinsy9948]

The problem with this design of Janna's transformation is that she uses a lot of gold pieces, yellow colors and few blue details and this is already Kayle's color scheme. This form should have more crystal pieces (like the original Staff), predominant blue (after all, she is the blue bird) and less yellow

[@miguelsanchez825]

@@Airwinsy9948 Kayle used to have red too in her colo scheme. They removed that in her rework. It's an interesting point but I think both can coexist using gold.

[@Francoenter]

New Mordekaiser looks like the villain of a kids cartoon. Like the lego version of Mordekaiser.

[@Airwinsy9948]

An opinion from someone who loves Janna and has been a main for 9 years: They didn't keep anything from the original Janna, it's like they were two different characters, even her VA isn't the same, that's what I really hated. I loved that they put shurima elements on her, but I hated that she is using so many gold pieces, this makes her design less light and ethereal, and this is necessary for a wind concept, the crystal staff helped with this, it gave a feeling of lightness, in addition to being the most characteristic blue element in her design... and well, in the redesign she has very few blue elements, which was necessary because in lore she is called "The Blue Bird" (and Riot didn't add it in her bird form either)

[@SleepyFen]

I am not a fan of Janna's redesign unless it comes with a hefty caveat that Janna is capable of shape-shifting by function of her (it?) not being human. I'll buy that she maybe changes shape based on the people and beliefs around her to be less foreign and frightening to the people she's trying to help. This could explain how she looked a certain way in Piltover and Zaun while now looking differently in a different place. But I don't think there's much sense in rewriting her to be Shuriman and changing her design to be Shuriman, period, if she's not even a human. You could keep both designs canon and validate everyone's impression and experience of her character that way.

Great video and I agree with a lot of your tier list. As someone with more animator/gameplay design background though I have concerns with some of the redesign "concept art" and how much it would have to be changed for the character to both be animated and visually clear in an Esport game. I noticed you briefly brought up these thoughts with asol but in a future list like this I'd like to hear more about your thoughts on which designs would translate easily and which ones would need big concessions/adaptations. For example I had alarm bells going off with how I'd implement that Zilean concept although I may be overcomplicating it.

[@spheredtick8012]

I think it's a pity that they didn't add wukong to LoR since they added Master Yi

[@Relevart9169]

I absolutely love Morgana's redesign, it actually fits her lore and doesn't make her look goofy, its more detailed and targonian, and i personally like that theres a resemblance to Kayle when she's unleashing her divinity Janna on the other hand just kinda looks like a pig? Idk smth about the ears and the nose doesn't seem right, Coven Janna tho, peak

[@00Clank]

I personally would boost Leblanc another tier just for how good her LoR voicelines are. Only downside is although I think how she plays as a card is cool and fine, I do agree it doesn't capture the deceit, guile and trickery angle as well as her League kit. Jax is one of the least humble characters I have seen in any media, I assume you meant to say something like 'frank' or 'earnest', that he doesn't put on airs of behave with any pretentiousness. I remember Quinn is in LoR because she has loads of really funny interactions, especially with Swain.

my issue with bluedekaiser is the god damn rectangle feet, LIKE WHYYYYYYY

[@llamadelreyii3369]

He had pizza feet before the rework, funny

LoR Quinn is great, she actually looks like a stealthy scout. Give it to me!!!!!

Mordekaiser's new look is literally just a rip-off of Xerath.

[@TheDoctorOfThrills]

They took Kaisa's skinsuit and realized that because she has normal human proportions, they could take things away to make her look monstrous but making this separate from her body, she looks more scary

Dude the Jet Set Radio Future playlist is top tier background music

[@satriahadi1893]

the new morde helmet design do remind me of the shape of the immortal bastien with those long parts which i do like

[@megcomb8838]

Lmao the one second clip of Sven Larian Studios

[@blueskyblazingrose]

I just realized the two extra horns on mordekaiser mask are the same from the noxian emblem

[@jaimeruiz7837]

Why are you using new art and then old models? Why not use the old art?

[@user-lu3oo9rd2k]

Great tierlist! exept morde, his league desing is beliavable, an actual suit of armor you could see existing in a fantasy world, New morde has proportions SO EXAGARATED, its goofy - his horns? HUGE, legs? - HUGE KNEE CAPS, etc etc, and its so open, morde is supossed to be a imprisoned soul in a suit of armor, but its so open in this new desing, looks like he is gonna move and his soul is gonna leak out, and altough i like his color changing to dissociate with the shadow isles, i think this is just not the blue that works for him, its close, but its still not quite it. the league version, is almost perfect, and i prefer it 10000x times more then this new lor one. (also the mace looks like CRAAAAAAP)

[@MZZE-my7hz]

25:30 ORKS MENTIONED! WAAAAAAAAGGGH!!!

[@estaveler3288]

I always liked the theory that the reason why mordekaiser looks so different is that runeterra mordekaiser is what he looks like in the gray realm/death realm and the armor we see in league is his living world armor or his amor that he wears when he is on planet

[@gabecohen-nv7nq]

I actually like that they moved Malphite over to Targon. Like yeah, he started as part of Ixtal, but then naturally went towards the mountainous region of Targon and just kind of chills with the earth elementals there and Chip.

[@silverdragonoid]

I knew it would be a bad idea to watch this before going to bed because Yi is on the list and that affects me more than caffeine... Well, here I am, more awake than before👏🏻 (but grateful you kept it brief with him or I would explode)
