Ok then, why does Varius look like Vegeta? And why is he so generic?

When did you become an Associate Game Designer at Riot? Also, what other games have you worked on before coming to Riot Games?

and lastly, did you take any inspiration from the DotA hero "Axe" when you thought up Darius?

Bugs? What kind of bugs? Any funny ones we should know about?

I grew up in Dallas, and have lived in Washington DC, San Francisco, Richmond Virginia, and Los Angeles (in that order)

I am 32

Morello looks like a normal guy, but laughs like an evil madman.

Best one was that his ult was resetting his allies ultimate cooldowns. Triple Vlad ult was the best one we saw (each boosting the damage of the last).

I started here part time in December while I wrapped up my previous job. This is my first gig in the video game industry.

Shockingly, no one here made the Axe connection until after the reveal. I see what people are saying, but honestly a military dude with a giant axe will invariably resemble other military dudes with giant axes in some respects.

Quote:
What was your biggest inspiration for Darius?
Statikk, one of our live designers, actually submitted Darius' concept art and story line over a year ago. He was backlogged until I expressed interest in making a mid-difficulty fighter with genuine weaknesses and some crazy strengths in exchange.

Quote:
Do you feel that Darius has a boring model, being a generic human male knight in armor? It seems to be a concern.
I fought to make him an eagle, and his ult involved picking enemies up and drop them on other enemies. Unfortunately our 3d modelers couldn't make his axe fit in the eagle's talons.

Quote:
Do you have a beard?
Not quite, but I haven't shaved in 3 days.


Quote:
Also what are you wearing?
Do you have any kids?
What's my favorite colour?
What was the name of the first woman you made love to?
a purple button down shirt, jeans, fleece, flip flops, headphones.
No kids, but I do think about it.
Green?
Sarah.

FeralPony might do our 100th champions voice over. Does that count as a hint?

Thanks for the reply.

I mainly asked if there was any inspiration from Axe because of his ultimate's animation.
