Her artwork was bad, and an UPDATE was needed, but why did they have to rework her image? She went from matronly to scared child.

to the point: soraka's dryad and divine skins received the same treatment as her base, and now the critical task of picking your favorite begins. :3
Does that mean she doesn't launch with a new skin?

Wow. To the people saying "this is bad" or however you might be saying it, you're heavily in the minority.

Also, she's not Ionian, she's a celestial being (they'll be changing her lore soon to reflect this).

Because her image wasn't good. Like I said, taste is taste, but who actually wants her to look like the old hag she did before?
