You can feel it’s not far, but it’s been six years that Aurelion Sol landed League of Legends. Promised and anticipated by Riot Games over the years, the dragon was named after the famous and canceled Ao Shin and became Star Forger. A character who can even obey his will, which is beyond human knowledge. It’s the strongest creature according to Lore and is still considered one of Riot Games’ biggest failures when it comes to character creation.
The champion that the people have been waiting for for years
If you look at this dragon’s stats, the truth is that he’s never been a bad champion when it comes to performance. However, he has a flat electrocardiogram for players’ interest. He took the top spots on each of the lists we compiled to review the least popular champions, and he celebrated his birthday like never before. From all sides, Only selected in 0.5% of games.. The skarner chosen for recycling is the least popular and the difference is 0.04%.
The numbers would be insignificant for any champion, but especially for the outgoing champion at a time when League of Legends was governed by more modern design rules and there was no biweekly pressure to release characters. They are also unacceptable for the most anticipated champion in video game history. Ao Shin may have nothing to say to new players in the Riot Games title, but he was a true legend for second or second starters in the game Season 3 and I’ve been hearing about it for years.
Why didn’t Aurelion work?
Riot Games often points out that heinous champions garner less interest in the community than people in humanoid form. But the failure of Aurelion Sol cannot be explained by this design. We all want to embody an intergalactic dragon capable of summoning the stars. However, A few gameplay issues seem to identify the character’s major flaws It was too strong for its own good, and its mechanics felt too awkward for many players.
When Aurelion Sol came out, he was able to do a lot. Even without means of defense (it was his biggest flaw)He could extend his lane with uncanny simplicity, allowing him to instantly move across the map. And that creates a numerical advantage against him that forces him to stay under his turret all the time. Players quickly realized the potential of a champion, which led to a plethora of alternate strategies. It was very attractive for players playing in teams (and therefore organized) and gave enough time to explore all the opportunities.
However, this situation drove the first nail in his coffin. Aurelion Sol’s great power quickly caused a nerd storm, which made him laugh until Riot Games gave him the final blow to permanently disable the W (celestial expansion).. It’s because of the hyperactivity that drains her power and makes her uncomfortable with champions like Talia or twisted fate.
This resulted in a distinctive model of the game that players didn’t like.. The character had no mobility, but had to keep his distance to inflict damage that was very difficult to control and significantly lower than that of other mages. Something caused it to fade into oblivion – even though Riot Games stopped its tension a long time ago. He was forgotten even in the middle of the competition where he had fun: he did not appear once halfway through last season.
As his sixth birthday approaches, rumors are surfacing of a possible remake that will change some of his abilities and make him the champion he was meant to be. However, this seems to be one of the toughest projects League of Legends has ever faced if it decides to go ahead with it. Overcoming failure on this scale is no easy task, but we want nothing more than a little fairness to become one of the most exciting champions in the game.
