I won't talk about the kit as it does seem solid and I personally never played old Swain that much.

What I dislike personally is that they took out a lot of things that were iconic to him, which is to say his limping, Beatrice (I know there are ravens following you around the map, but Beatrice wasn't just "one raven", she was special) and his complete trasformation, replacing the first with a far more generic demon arm and the latter with an even more generic simple pair of wings, and I don't see why they decided to take any of those things out. They even said that the trasformation was still there in Tyrant Swain's skin but I watched the spotlight and to be honest that's a lie, two wings and an head pale in comparison to what his ult should turn him into.

To make things worse, I think he doesn't fit aesthetically with the game. When I look at new Swain I think I'm looking at a character from Starcraft, and I can't help but thinkg "What is this guy doing in this game?". He seems to be out of a sci-fi, really.

I've only listened to his special interactions rather than his full VO but I don't have much to say about that, if anything I was hoping for some interaction with Sona as he at least used to appreciate his music.
