6:23 I think the reason why the cloak is more apparent in the concept is because it's a darker colour than the rest of the body. With the model, the wings are the same colour as his back, so it blends more than intended.

Yeah, pretty sure they already had the new artwork in the works. There's always the possibility of 'intentional publicity stunt with uncanny valley face', but doesn't seem that likely. I think the idea of conflicting art direction is much more likely.. and the other side already had concept artwork done and shown for a less human look. At least enough that they could make some very rapid fixes. 24 hour turnaround is fast, even for just a few assets. Someone likely pulled an all-nighter, if I had to bet.

"I don't know why I like this concept more than the one we got" as an art dude, I got your back. It's CONTRAST! His wings just look like everything else about him, just another scaled part of his body, in the concept art, his wings have a drastically different color, and it sells the personality of the "cape" look. Put simply; Smolder needs a contrasting accent color that spreads throughout his whole wingback to sell that "princely cloak" vibe.

@@mrchung I don't understand why they want to break fundamental rules that honestly shouldn't be broken. Imagine something like making a champion able to hit other structures before the outer turrets have been destroyed. And they think that's a good idea just because the idea is new, they ignore the fact that you shouldn't just rewrite the rules of the game completely. Same with yuumi, you shouldn't be able to sit invincible on someone while healing, shielding and dealing damage, since there is no counterplay. Kayn Is obnoxious because he can just sit in walls and you are unable to hit him, he also gets faster when in those walls which makes no sense. Bel veth has so many dashes so if perhaps you decide to play a skillshot champ it's just gg. All this creates this dynamic that newer champs have no counterplay, especially if you play older champs, which forces riot to buff the stats of older champs, which doesn't fix the underlying problem in the first place...

So humans, an ape, can be taught speech as a kid, but chimpanzees who've lived their entire life with humans in zoos cannot speak. Great lore, reality.

@@Skullbushi Chimpanzees are also sapient, sapience has literally nothing to do with the ability to communicate with human words. Of the few dragons that can talk, they're either a celestial being or a dragon heavily influenced by humans early in their life. You're complaining that not all dragons can talk, but why would they? Most probably don't have the ability at all, and the few that could haven't been taught how to do it.

the concept art face is actually expressing proudness and royalty (plus it feels more like a monster than the smolder we got, which is a middle ground between the ugly sonic and this one), the wings being a cape is way more clear in the concept art as the wings had a different color than the body (which is not the case for the final smolder, so you cannot notice that detail as easily and doesn t strike the eye that much) and his head actually looks like he has a crown (completely missing from smolder). The smolder we got is good, but the concept art is just better at tackling the proud dragon, although it is less cute (i will still take the concep art)

Necrit, you should 100% look at Vainglory’s characters. It’s an olde frame but it’s me of the games that got me into MOBAs and into league. They have a dragon there named Skaarf who is adorable and has a lot of personality with sounds he makes but doesn’t talk. The game isn’t live anymore he is it would be interesting to see some of the characters there because yes they have some generic themed characters, their gameplay is pretty unique compared to other Moba’s. One example would be Vox who much like Sivir’s W can bounce attacks to other enemies but Vox could be played as an AD or an AP. It was pretty cool seeing your sound based attacks kill enemies over simply attacking them. You could also scout with him as he could detect enemies hiding either in stealth or bushes with his resonance ability that gave a little visual q.

Still feel like he could use a real snout and dragon-like eyes instead of a few extra scales and disney cute eyes but it's better than nothing. I just hope he's not considered a "monster champ" by Riot because he's clearly not one.

Gameplay wise ill agree with you but design wise. No way. I think his story is fairly basic and his visual design is nothing special Imo. I am stoked to play it though

Remember those years where Lane Swapping was meta and we would see games in pro play where one top laner would go against the adc and support? I miss those kinds of strategies

I love complex skill, it gives you more of an activity with your character, but man Riot releasing a champion with a classic skills and abilities that doesn't have an essay in it is so refreshing to see, it feels like something that we've never seen before even though we have it 15 years ago.

I think someone prepared the more dragon smolder ahead of time, because they already knew it would be a shitshow.

2:05 I kind of like this version better but, in the skill preview he looked cool still. I think the color scheme could be better but, he'll have a bunch of cool looking skins later on, I'm sure.

Dragons have long been seen as a sort of hybrid between Feline and Reptilian tendencies, so I can see why so many of the initial concepts leaned feline.

Wanting to give bot lane a “cutesy” champion because “a lot of the ADCs are too serious” is a pretty weak reason. Tristana, Ezreal, Draven, Jinx, Zeri, and Twitch are all ADCs who aren’t serious. And a lot of the serious ones still have charm, like Miss Fortune or Lucian or Jhin.

Already calling it now. smolder is prolly THE best candidate for now for a ultimate skin already with the "evolving" "learning" "growing in power" and "royal dragon" thematic. but with stacks and lvl. slowly he becomes more mature and in his lvl 3 ult with max stacks and lvl 18 instead of calling his mother he summons a fire avatar of himself that has a model that flies over in his ult instead. we need more evolving ultimate skins.. only reason udyr and lux and ezreal did so well. a skin that changes during the game or gameplay or how u play that certain game.

I'm probably the only one here who wanted this. I kinda wanted Smolder to be a progression champion. Like each time you level up his ultimate he gets older and looks like an Elder Dragon at stage 3 of his ultimate.

after the design changes I really started to like him i think only things that was off was his face and the ability to talk(for me) as a reptile enthusiast dragon designs are really important for me. Smolder's skull is built like an hatchling reptile's one(including dinosaurs and birds in here too) so thats cool but im not a fan of dragon facial muscles but every iteration of dragons seem to have them so i cant complain about it. Im not a fan of the talking as i said before but it has a lore reason so i accept it, maybe as he grows and his snout gets longer he will have diffuculties while talking human languages(coping). I wish we could see the mother because then i could analyze the model even further but it seems solid for a couple decades old hatchling especially for a "cute" champion. Plus them using lots of animal sounds to creat the moms sound is cool just like jurassic park and all the other documentaries.
