Female League of Legends Champion Dons a New Wardrobe

Tristana's default outfit isn't very sexualized; she's fully covered and looks like some sort of armor, and Eve is an assassin-type champ and not a tanky type like Sejuani. Also Trist is a megling, whose design doesn't really have much in the way in the breast department.Fappy said:
EDIT: Nevermind Fappy, saw your post where you meant Katarina not, Trist.
^Basically that.Mouse_Crouse said:
Sejuani was never "bad". She just wasn't "good enough".
Of course, the sheer number of champions available now just means that bans/picks are more player-centric than ever before, and a champ has to be flat out OP or a good counter to be worth a damn competitively.
It happens a lot with big-roster games.
Voicing this as well, although most of the complaints about her inability to do work with a team here are pretty unwarranted. She's a high health high CC tank, that's all there is to it. The rework actually makes her a lot more terrifying because all her abilities apply Frost, which makes permafrosting off of spinning your mace around a lot more "in your face."Atmos Duality said:

OT:
Good. I want to play her more, but than little tidbit about wearing chainmail bikinis throws me off. Still, I've been brushing up on her more recently. She's good times in the top lane.
I saw what a great Sejuani could do even back in the Atmog's meta.Ferisar said:
My friend played her often and he was pretty damn good with her. (the loss of Force of Nature was honestly the worst thing to happen to her...well, that and the timely release of pre-nerfed Nautilus)
Her ability to lock out movement consistently made her very effective for skillshot-based teams with consistent poke.
(Varus, Ezreal, Nidalee)
Though I think she waned in popularity because tanks are all supposed to stun-taunt or initiate with some big ultimate.
Let me just get this OT section out of the way; it's good that they're aware of it and trying to do better with regards to objectification of female characters. I'm a straight male and a lot of the designs irritate me massively. Oversexualisation =/= quality character design. I'm looking at you, Nidalee/Evelynn/Miss Fortune. Having one female character based around being purring, scantily clad sex kitten? Fine. Three is too many, and there's a lot more than the ones I could be bothered to name.
Now, onto Sejuani in the game.
You're all wrong. She's incredibly powerful in the hands of a good player, particularly at mid-ELO play, since people massively underestimate her. The problem is that she requires a completely tailor-made rune and mastery page, and she simultaneously needs gold early to achieve her build options at the right time and is too weak early to secure kills without good cooperation from team mates. She's also vulnerable to counter-jungling.
That said, in the hands of a good player, a mid-late game Sejuani has, bar none, the best CC in the game. Her build options are also pretty flexible, since she doesn't need any help with CC or mobility, thanks to her Q, so you can turn her into a slow-burning damage machine or a tanky powerhouse, as long as you know what you're doing enough to get off the ground in the early. She's really hard to play early, and there are other people who do her job with much less effort, but if you can use her, she's a ridiculously strong jungler.

Not worth an article of coverage. LoL constantly has character redesigns. Anyone here see that Karma Redesign? No?StewShearer said:
Well i guess i approve of this but what i don't approve of is Trundle's redesign. He was a unique champion with his lore of being the rejected savior of his people to now just being king of the trolls.
She's great late game but is absolute shit early and mid game. I don't know who you've been playing against but she's awful in the jungle due to weak clears and poor ganks until level 6. Plus it's extremely easy to counter jungle her since most of the other decent junglers can clear faster than her. Top lane she doesn't have enough sustain or dmg to compete with common top laners. These buffs will probably help her out though for laneing since she'll have a bit more dmg and more tankiness.Frostbite3789 said:
There is really no reason to be beaten by a Sejuani early game. She shines late game because of the health stacking meta (and that's not even as prevalent as it was earlier in season 3).
Don't follow LoL, so I had to go Google the old armor and compare.
... Definitely an improvement, imo.

I didn't think the old armor was a problem, it reflected her culture. But the new one isn't a problem, it doesn't diminish that reflection.
If you bring that up, you're gonna get A LOT of people crying "exploitation of women, etc."Loop Stricken said:I prefer this new armour, but I'd much rather see more Riven skins.
I don't... understand. What?Lovely Mixture said:I didn't think the old armor was a problem, it reflected her culture. But the new one isn't a problem, it doesn't diminish that reflection.

Note, I said skins, not skin. I goddamn hate that ridiculous bunnygirl outfit.
Sorry it was just dry humor. I figure the mere mention of the bunnygirl outfit would send some people into rage.Loop Stricken said:I don't... understand.

I personally don't mind it.
