No League of Legends champion has received as much hate as Seraphine. Although Riot Games placed great enthusiasm in the character and even hoped that she would be one of the community’s most beloved designs, their massive marketing campaign and decision to give her so much prominence backfired. against the company. Since then, the heroine has been the subject of all kinds of mockery and even aberrant creations that try to ridicule her appearance and her lore. However, one fan managed to create a parody version which is actually better than the original.
Fuuuu… Zion! Ha!
The artistic concept behind the project is very simple. The author gave the budding star Samira’s weapons, along with some of her animations. The original video therefore shows a Seraphine much more pissed off than the nice version present in the Summoner’s Rift. The problem is that if the Dreaming Singer (Snowboarder ascendant) suddenly seems much more impressive, this is largely due to Samira’s implanted elements. Seraphine clearly lacks a clear source of power.
In League of Legends kings, emperors and other monstrosities come out of Nothing, oppose fantastic creatures, gods and demi-gods, as well as from time to time, the creator of the universe. Inevitably with just a microphone, Seraphine looks a little pale among the other champions. This is not the first time that a problem of this kind has arisen, and finally Seraphine looks a lot like a Sona 2.0. Already at the time, the developers felt that Sona was a bit “failed” from this point of view, with the impression that the champion was missing something to really get into the hearts of players. Sona at this level is a bit of the champion that everyone likes, but that no one (or almost) will ever think of inviting to parties. The two champions seem out of place in the game, unequipped to deal with the threats they face.
Lazy star?
According to the mod’s creator, Seraphine’s main problem is her disc allowing her to move. VSmeant to represent the stage on which the singer finds herself, it gives her, on the contrary, a rather soft image. If we combine the fact that she never really moves on her own, with her look that is out of step with the game world, we end up with a champion who seems more a spectator than an actor in the Rift. Certainly it can be pleasant for a few games, after all it is often pleasant to play characters completely out of step with the universe in which they are supposed to evolve, but this can put players off to invest in the character and make it their own. hand.
The other issue is the lack of power feel. In the game as in the lore, it is very difficult to understand where Seraphine draws her power from, and in what way the latter is impressive. Obviously the nature of his skill kit is not necessarily conducive to a surge of power, but Riot Games has still managed to achieve a better rendering with other champions with a fairly similar concept, such as Karma. Today Seraphine is only chosen in 2.5% of games, despite the fact that new players can get her for free. Certainly this statistic is not as catastrophic as for other characters, but compared to the media campaign around the champion, this low popularity remains a small failure.
esport-lol
It’s called being in the sauce. After numerous complaints from players, Riot finally recognized that there were problems connecting to the League of Legends MSI. For this reason, a team has been favored… And its matches will have to be replayed. What a story !
