You have been a most worthy adversary, but in every game, there are winners and there are losers. And as you know, in this game, losers get robotizicized!

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
Just not have those voice lines? Kinda easy fix since they have to be re-recorded anyway

Yeah with the special interaction lines you generally get like one of them per game if you're lucky. It reminds me of how people thought Aatrox's taunting was too much even though you barely ever get to hear any of them because of how special interactions work.

Most of what you'll hear from the character is her interacting with the buff monsters out of that video and those were kinda cute. Angry tomato. :3:

I'd much rather have cheerful fun characters like Zoe and Neeko (and Lulu and Gnar, to use older examples) than another Grim Fightman.

I think stuff like Kayn works out as Grim Fightman only because Rhaast endlessly mocks how ridiculous he is. Rhaast/Tahm Kench are great for being both serious but kinda funny at the same time.

That being said, stuff like Swain being a Grim Fightman but is really excellently voiced. I guess it kinda depends on how old the champ's VA is?

(also a lightning rod)

Neeko's numbers seem way too high to not be busted, or to have her slow in as a support. 500 +170 + 220 + 650+3.2*AP.

Also the fact that rank 1 Q is doing 160 AOE to monsters seems like it will do just fine to help her jungle - although she definitely seems more like a roaming mid.

There should be a patch that does nothing but add like 15 more minutes of dialog minimum for each champion in the game.

It'd be like when they added a bunch of domination lines for TF2

and you're going to hear those lines way more often than the once-per-game of 'haha she thinks ezreal looks like a girl' or 'taliyah was going to be trans and they backed out of it at the last second presumably because they didn't want to get banned from russia' (or they decided having their least conventionally attractive female character be trans would be easily misinterpreted, also in a universe with literal magic 'being trans' seems easier to resolve??? who knows)

e: actually now i want them to retcon one of the many 'sexy X' characters to be trans via the use of magic / alchemy / etc, just to watch the fireworks from the usual suspects

I mean sure but queer people can talk about/acknowledge other people in ways other than whether or not they're attracted to them, which the writer of her interactions seems to have an iffy grasp of. Compare to zoe and new ezreal who are both hetero characters who keep their horniness to more realistic levels

Again I like the character and there are waaaaayyy worse ways it could've been handled, but it just feels hamfisted to me

I've never heard of this, and there don't appear to be any unused voice lines on LoLWiki. He's actually got the opposite: one of his lines is him flirting with Diana.

it just copies appearance and some base stuff like movespeed and autoattacks so she can pretend to lane as another laner, she retains her own spells and casting them breaks the disguise, other than W which will make a leblanc clone of whatever champ she's copying instead of herself

Neeko's W is the ultimate counter to hook/bind champs, you can just toss your clone right at the hook as it comes out and it will never hit you. That combined with her W 3 hit dmg+movespeed passive makes me think she will actually be a phenomenal on hit adc.

more like really good as support because you can block thresh hooks for your adc. the other thing is if you go from a bush and use w to “walk into” another bush you get to face check with zero risk

Yeah but I'm assuming that's when it hits the third target, so a bit conditional. Then again, you can probably just throw it at the row of caster minions and that's your first two targets.

I'm gonna be picking her up on release I reckon and go support. Or actually I'll pay 7k+ and not be able to play her at all cos she will be permabanned
