I mean, we have plenty of cleavage bearing champs already, so I suppose I'd like to see a new female champion whose design isn't so breast-bearing, but that's just my opinion.

Mermaids are supposed to be seductive, luring sailors and seducing them. They are similar to Sirens in Greek Mythology who lured sailors to their deaths mostly.

In fact, traditionally a mermaid wouldn't have anything on top. So an entire armored mermaid wouldn't make sense, she'd just be a fish with arms and a head.

With the new jungle change I am wondering if an aggressive support will become outdated because ganks will be coming later.

so is it just her offensive kit that is skill shot oriented or is her support abilities too like say lux's shield.

First Elise, then the Nidalee visual update and now our new support is a watermage named Nami?

It's as if all my League-related prayers are being answered.

I'm aware, Ahri being based on a Korean Gumiho is in the same boat (haha fish puns), but the fact still remains that female characters that show off their breasts are a really tiring and unoriginal design.
