You aren't wrong at all. It's like the Apple situation right now, like Necrit mentioned on his video.

Y’know I just started scrolling into the comments when he brought you up in this video. Nice seeing ya here man! And yeah, that certainly seems to be the case with Riot atm, although my opinions are somewhat easily swayed since I’m mostly an outsider to LoL, playtime-wise.

@@inigo137 I'm out of the loop, what is happening with apple?

@@Justin73791 Necrit in his vid cited something from Steve Jobs and basically, you have Idea Guys and Marketers. Idea Guys flesh out this really cool thing people will like because of its execution or uniqueness and Marketers actually make it KNOWN so there is an audience to actually pay for or enjoy it. But marketers are what actually bring in money, so you'll hire more and more of them to help better finance. Eventually leads to a situation with a lot more marketers than Idea Guys, so they can sell or make profits...but they're not actually selling or capitalizing off of GOOD or FUN PRODUCTS and will rehash whatever few new creative things they still make. And some Idea Guysay leave when they realize how much of a backseat they've become.

@@Justin73791 basically think like raid shadow legends. You have a shit ton of people marketing it which is where all the money goes (sponsors, ads etc.) and then you look at the actual game and it’s a pile of flaming shit because they haven’t put any money towards the game.

The notion of ‘’Monster champion’’ is also really large and allows for a lot of creative themes. I’ve just got back into LoL and I decided to learn Kindred because their design, lore and voice lines are just amazing. It would be difficult to do something like them with human-looking characters.

I’m very anti meta. I hate seeing the same picks every game. While I don’t play some of the harder champions in a way, I’m never gonna play a guy like yone or yasuo because I get annoyed so much by seeing them in game all the time. I gravitate to ones more like Kayle, Nocturne, Tristana, Vi, Diana, Nasus, and Garen cause they all are super fun to play while not being overplayed. If I see a champ appear more often in my game, that makes me less likely to want to pick them up. I’m probably gonna pick up Reksai next just because she’s in that same category of fun champ

@Moonlight he already prove the point man people like what they like (the point is) how Rito games don’t really give a shit about unique and cool ass design when they just selling skin and release way more clusterfuck of sexy anime dudes and babes to get hand to many people as possible (even tho league nowadays didn’t attract new fans anymore because their new design is bland af).

As pessimistic as it is going to sound, the only way we will ever get back to a time where monster champions/characters were a thing... the gaming market will need to crash. I don't want the industry that I grew up with as a kid to go through another market crash that nearly destroyed the medium. However, it will need to go through one in order to weed out the investors, stockholders, and marketers who pretty much have the gaming industry by the balls. Only then can we ever go back to a simpler time where people could create whatever they want without the mighty dollar telling them how it should be made.

I so much agree!! My favourite champion was velkoz 🤩 why don't people like them?? Humans are already boring enough, we play games to dreams a little bit...

Lucien just felt more like a ruler then viego

@@zileantimekeeper7464 Thanks for reminding me to replay Fable for the tenth time

As someone who absolutely despises Viego's design and won't ever shut up about it, I agree with you. The reason I hate Viego so much is bcz I know that Riot didn't make him look like that to break stereotypes. They did it to sell a fuckboy.

I expected him to look more like a Dark Souls boss. But he looks like the main vocalist of an emo band(which is hilarious since his next skin is Pentakill where he's the lead singer in a band)

I mean, I’m pretty sure it wasn’t meant to be a subversion of expectations in any way, just another way to mess up the lore just for the sake of putting hot anime boy once again. Probably if Viego was out in 2014-2017, he’d look a lot more like Kalista or Ledros in LoR, like a ghoul, because in the whole LoR cards, there is no ghoul/wraith that is really human, either it’s a ghost, either a monstrosity

I gotta ask you though, why didn't you question that claim?

@@ebilveryebil3091 Because they're right to an extent, and not only right, the logic follows. There's a reason why girls (using girls intentionally instead of women) are memed to only play supports, and not only supports, only enchanter supports. And my personal experience supports it, all the women I met in league played enchanters or if delegated to mid, it's always Ahri, Lux, Kata, all those champs have vastly different playstyles but one key similarity, they're all female. Now, I'm not gonna go on a tirade about how women literally can't relate to anything non female (yes, even rek'sai) but I will say this, what you main MATTERS, and it matters a LOT. Sure, it doesn't apply for 100%, but there are CLEAR guidelines about psychology of people depending on what they main. Now, I will talk only about high elo for couple of reasons. 1. Low elo players don't really ''stick to a champion'' and just move around, rarely truly OTPing a champ. 2. Only way you can stay with a champ for long enough to get to high elo is perserverance and that requires you to both love their design AND gameplay, so it's up to game developer to sell lore/theme of the champ together with gameplay, and they're always praised when they succeed in combining it properly! I've met 3 high elo Rengar OTPs so far, and they're all fucking psychos both in game and IRL. I've met 7(including me) high elo Thresh OTPs and they're all fucking sexual degenerates IRL. I've met 2 Braum and Ornn mains in high elo, and what a surprise, they are wholesome guys. Oh look at that, a female in Diamond 2-1? Of course, it's Soraka main. Exceptions are there, even mentioned in this video, in the ''niche'' argument, but there are certain champs that attract certain types of people, you can't escape that reality. But it's NOT something that affects real life TOO much... for a player... But when you're in charge of biggest game in the world, and you're purely financially driven... you're going to find out that even 3% decrease in champion play rate (and play rate converts into buy skin rate) will make you simply not release monster champs, cause even 3% is giant pile of cash for them (and I can't say for sure since I can't access Riot's stats overall, but my personal feel is that monster champs have about 15-20% less play rate from the start, compared to average good looking 20 something years old, 6 abs, double Ds tits champions).

@@washada ​ Absolutely not sadly, I've only applied my psychology background combined with personal experience playing the game. Sadly, no one would ever even let me do such a research because sadly, getting results such as ''Female gender has far less capability of identifying with a character unless it is a female too'' will never ever be published as result in the West, no matter how thorough the testing is. Just trust me, no matter how much we meme women for being soraka/lulu otps, if she ain't enchanter and/or ahri,lux main on mid, that IS a red flag. Sadly, not all champions have such strong community like Rengar, Thresh, Riven, etc, and since I only apply any data from people who main them, aka over 1000 or 1000s of games on certain champ, obviously people who are ready to invest that much time in a certain champion in a certain game have high possibility, or at least increased possibility of not being mentally adjusted, so I might be only looking at skewed ''who's wrong how'' based on mains and totally ignoring people who, for example, main GP but only play 5 games a month on him. But that's okay for me, rarely I've been interested in ''normies'' (although using that term unironically is cringe).

Weeell, to be perfectly fair, League of Legends HAS had anime influence right from the beginning, we've got dudes like - Yi (proto Yasuo) - Ezreal (who on release had weird 'whiskers' on his cheeks like Naruto for no reason) - the Kinkou ninjas - Sona (essentially Hatsune Miku ported into the game) - Lux (created by Riot Shurelia, a huge fan of Touhou who made Lux as a reference to Kirisame Marisa of that game) Admittedly they were in the minority at the time, but there was never any doubt that League did, in some degree, pander to weebs - and, in moderation, that's perfectly fine. What I can't stand is how Riot has completely lost any sense of perspective on what made their character design great to chase that weeb/K-pop stan dollar. Anime is not the enemy, the profit incentive is.

@@HOVNA Mate, I'm not talking about "sex sells", that's basic marketing a child can understand. I'm talking about the trend of taking existing properties (characters, franchises, etc.) and changing them into something "more acceptable" by giving them a "modern take"... It's not just a question of censorship and marketing; it's because a lot of the up and coming designers in entertainment as a whole are both impatient and creatively bankrupt, so they hijack someone else's work to use as a platform for what they want instead of building up their own work.

@@Thescott16 Eeeeh that's what has been happening since the beginning of time. Nothing is "original". Q

@@HOVNA Again, there's a difference between the overgeneralizing of ideas it takes to make that statement true (2nd guy who used a sword in fiction was "unoriginal"... sure, whatever) and literally taking an existing piece of work and changing it to suit themselves while pretending that it's still the unaltered original version.

@@Thescott16 But this is their intellectual property .. they are allowed to do that. It's just done by the marketing team not the designers. That's my point. You don't get to do what YOU want as artist in a huge company. You are there to do what sells. That's the problem. Not some weird "this generation" boomer shit

I hope nickyboi could see this comment and hopefully pin it

Was about to write something similar, check this comment y'all. Its all about the censorship. Same thing happened to Mobile Legends a few years ago.

Is there really similar censorship in Japan? Plenty of Japanese video games and anime are full of undead stuff, skulls, and blood, and I've never heard of Western games/movies being censored. Look at Jojo-- the only censorship in Jojo is in the West (censoring Jotaro smoking for whatever reason, most of the really gory stuff, and Stroheim's Nazi salute). Hell, Jojo actually pokes fun at East Asian superstitions with Mista, who's deathly fear of the number four is played as comedy.

@@bengrz13 Checked again. Apparently this censorship does not applie to the Japanese server. I'll edit the comment.

@@bengrz13 I'll comment on this as well. Although I'm not actually Japanese (yes, so all of this could be wrong. But some of them makes sense to me so I'll write here anyways). I actually looked a lot into Japan in the past in 2016 when I still watched anime to see the reason why anime plots and writings are just so trash that it hurts, much like the sentinels event writing. Basically the Japanese government gave up on anime, manga. They just don't care 1 bit about those stuff, bc most Japanese actually don't like animes/mangas. Don't get me wrong, some of them do watch anime but the anime that Japanese watch are mostly actually kid shows like aggretsuko and anime is actually despised among the people due to them ruining the image of Japanese tradition and rules. For example: There's an anime called wataten, which is the most vile thing ever, a grown woman actually lusting for a fcking child. No matter it is funny or not (which I don't see as funny, it's just gross) it is actually bizzare how this come to be since in Japan, u can't even come in contact or even near the child if you are not their family relatives and the action in the anime is immediately get caught by the police since in Asia in general, there are lots of police stations with many police swarming the streets. And many other traditions like workplace in Japan, education in Japan is just different than anime. And bc now Japan is mostly known through anime, at least online. Many people despised them and the government just don't care about it and let it go however it wants to go. That's why in the anime industry, massive underwage employees and trying to lick the West's boots writers goes rampant made anime what it is (a bunch of nonsense, elementary writing bs) with a few exceptions of actually good animes like Jojo and some others that I forgot the names of I am from Vietnam so more or less, at least in the same Asian part like Japan so at least I can confirm that with the etiquette of being serious about education and morals and stuff like that. Anime is just so plainly wrong that sometimes it is just stupid to think that anime is from Japan, it would make more sense if it's from the West Edit: Forgot conclusion, so the reason why most Japanese video games and anime bs are full of gory stuff is bc Japan mostly stopped caring about them as long as they are shipped outside of Japan, but not "In" Japan. In Japan, those things are actually restricted as most of the bloody games are definitely not really popular and only on PC which is fortunate for the government since most Japanese people don't play PC games anyways, iphones and consoles are the number 1 choices. And there is a superstition of all Japanese like cute stuff, I've actually heard about it too. I don't know if it's true or not, but at least I can confirm that the cute is 'absolutely not cute anime girls" , but more like cute animals like hello kitty and aggretsuko merch Second edit: Sorry for the essay, I'm actually Vietnamese so my English might be bad which is yes in Asia and close in traditions to Japan, China, Korea, Malaysia, etc

It's fine to make champions attractive, especially champs whose purpose is seducing enemies (evelynn, ahri). But champs who are literal monsters (except evelynn) that are supposed to be scary?

I really like the way they made his new skin, they swapped the blue and red- tho I'm not entirely sure, it'd be very interesting if they made rhaast the lightbringer and kayn the nightbringer, the reason i think of this is because of the silhouettes of both forms despite swapping colors- the blue dawnbringer form having horns fits the standard "red rhaast" silhouette, the red form for nightbringer on the other hand has long hair which is a characteristic of default blue kayn... I could be wrong here but it'd be so cool if they made it this way Also with kayn's undressed nature I think a semi-fit "chinese esque" clothes with a tear on the arm where rhaast resides is fitting since japanese clothes doesn't really fit him with him wielding a scythe, maybe a some armor to finish it off (?) I'm envisioning a look similar to a general from the "romance of the 3 kingdoms"... I'm so not used to imagining kayn with clothes on my head

​@@yuhan4469 that could work. The cut sleeve, btw, is a euphemism for gayness based on a tale were the emperor cut off his sleeve so his basically boyfriend could nap undisturbed. not saying they could use it to imply Kayn is gay, but just thought of that anecdote and felt like sharing

as a Kayn main, i'm still confused why he doesn't wanna wear a fucking shirt. Odyssey Kayn, for me, is the best appearance of Kayn.

@@RuzYT don't know if that's still canon but his bio says he hate wearing Armor because he thinks it slows him down but yeah it's a lame excuses for to why he's walking around shirt less ,he could have worn a Ionian robe or dress like the rest of his comrades , Idk remember that any of the order of shadows go around shirt less, but my real complain is that he doesn't have the shadow tattoos on his body like zed does , all of the order students are supposed to carve this tattoos to get their shadow powers and kayn 's supposed to have zed's level of shadow mastery so why doesn't he has them on his body that's another problem with riots design philosophy not only do they make their champions dress as less as possible but they all have flawless skin without scars or at least cool tattoos like with sivir, sylas,irellia ,kai'sa , Riven , Ashe , Olaf I mean pantheon is also shirt less but the giant scar on his chest is a awesome visual story telling same with viego's hole in his chest (though I get sometimes confused as to why it's a triangle) , kalista' s Spears stuck in her back and Samira and akali and ryze has their tattoos and it's cool as well so I idk understand why riot thinks that just being shirtless without a scratch is appiling it's boring and does a poor job telling the characters story

Check out wild rift ....there it is his base skin.

wild rift was really made for china and they have strict censorship laws there so they had choose between adding a skin as default in wildrift or not adding him at all

@@jamesthesmart2971 Cope.

@@theimmortaleye7511 Good thing I don’t play that.

@@catzor4795 I don’t like unbound thresh either but the dudes right. In China skulls in games are illegal and threshes face was just that. And he’s right about it being focused for China too. As Nickyboy said the main league audience is in Asia. Mobile gaming is just insanely big there compared to here.

I really want like Zac's brother, a giant Muk tanky and clunky AF

that's his Canon look now not Skin, just as a Skin in Game, and don't even think they make him use the Skull Form even Again.

I like humans champ but not like this it's so boring seeing a mens abs every day i hate it and seeing women's full of suit. So this is how riot gives us a champ that we don't like i hate this so much

Just reksai in a schoolgirl uniform and a red wig

@@JhuanVSales *I won't put a wig but actual hair, yeah the uniform is the generic sailor like uniform BUTT, I have a lot of references 'n inspirations from famous horror authors and OCs to make her more void like then just any generic H doujin monster girl with gore tag, my idea is to keep her as Rek'Sai butt give her this japanese horror like style*

My idea is something like a "Pageant Queen Rek'sai" where it's just Rek'sai wearing a glamorous gown with glitter all over her skin and a tiara, maybe put in some cutesy blush over there. Maybe her splash art is her being presented by a scepter and tiara for winning a Beauty Pageant with other sexy and cute girl characters (prolly Lux and Qiyana) looking at her in shock and disgust respectively, like they are surprised that this monster won the crown over them.

I want lady rek'sai Basicly rek'sai in a dress and sunhat.

@@chaotik900 *I want to sexualize her but keep her monster form*

Riot is just fucking stupid but when it comes to the reasoning behind their actions. It's always correlation and not causation with them. "this champ has a high win rate so let's nerf them." or "this gamemode isn't popular enough so we're removing it". They never EVER stop and think WHY these things are the way they are.

@@bevvvy1374 If you ever played Legends of Runeterra, do you remember this spring when almost the entire community was raving mad with the Irelia release because of her absolutely bullsht synergy with Azir? Remember how Riot handed over minimal nerfs to cards that were not even win conditions for the deck and tried to shove down our throats that the deck was good, even to the point they explicitly claimed that they liked its play pattern? Or in League of Legends when they "killed" Samira after months of her terrorizing botlane and they just said that "while the champion is balanced, some may find parts of her kit frustrating on lower ELOs" which was basically a nice way of saying "the champ is fine and you guys are bad, we'll still nerf her but shame on you for asking us to nerf her". Or the entire reason behind the existence of the 200 years meme?

@@tehrik0020 Not sure what your point is my guy

@@bevvvy1374 Simple, my point is that it's known for Riot to actually ignore community feedback and just do improper number crunching when it comes to issues.

The new Karthus pentakill skin doesn't remotely ressemble the previous skin. Every new skin he looks younger and alive like Thresh/Viego. I don't know what to expect from Udyr now, I also think about other characters like Shaco, if he ever gets updated I think they'll make him look like a anime boy harley quinn without a mask and the hat is going to be his dyed hair.

Well he is squishy af in wildrift

@@Traesto good, he deserves to be since he has the unbound thresh skin...

@@tenritniehtnoyugmodnar5661 ye exactly

I think unbound thresh looks ugly because it just is. i like human champions i think they are versatile and relatable but this one is just ugly

Then there is sett...

Aatrox is litterly the first champion that riot has completely deleted from the game sadly (1st champ i ever played gone forever but never forgotten)

@@junipang8028 Sion...

I feel your pain. The only character that i really knew how to play and really had the care to buy all skins and chromas is gone forever.

Bard is not only my favorite design but hes also the most fun I ever had in the game

They did the same thing to Vel'Koz. When he released, he was a perfectly balanced champion. He didn't do well against assassins but had a good pairing against other mages and did well at farming lane safely (His one advantage against dive assassins.) He had weaknesses, he had strengths, and for the most part was relatively easy to pick up and play (outside of maybe his Q.) Then came the nerf bat to his AP scaling on his W, mana regen, and they made him over-rely on his passive/ult. That effectively killed the champion outright and made him unplayable. Even after they fixed some of his scaling problems, he is still hardly touched because of the bad PR that he had over the years from that nerf. Had Riot just done the old "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" then characters like Vel'Koz and A-Sol would have been staples for mid-lane mages.
