Players are disappointed that Riot did not use this meme to create Renata’s dance. One of the fans fixed it

League of Legends

The community noticed that there was a meme that would fit perfectly as the dance of the newest League of Legends heroine.


In the last few days, the LoL community mainly discusses the newest character, which will soon appear on Summoner’s Rift. It is about Renata, a support, who was described to be a “darker champion”. The creators wanted the new support to stand out from others who often appear to be nice and cute.

Renata quickly aroused the interest of the fans. Today, many people admire her appearance, skills, and the skin that will appear during the premiere.

There are also those who have focused on a different aspect of the heroine, namely her dance. What is it about?

Lost opportunity for a perfect dance for Renata?

The details about Renata have only been known for a few days. Riot just managed to announce her skills and an official presentation.

In the videos you can see, among others, the heroine’s dance, which looks like this:

For most people, this is nothing special. It can be considered that the animation is just correct – neither particularly surprising nor bad.

Some fans, however, have stated that Riot missed the perfect opportunity to take advantage of an old meme that became popular in 2015.

As generally known, League of Legends heroes often have a lot of easter eggs. Often, in their dialogue lines, you can find references to famous movies, series, games or just memes. It is no different with dances. Both the base version of the champions and their skins have animations drawn from famous memes. A good example is the newest Ezreal. This is a reference to a very famous meme.

Coming back to Renata, what would be the perfect dance for this character? According to the community, this would be the “Freestyle Dance Teacher”. Why? The woman in the video is Renata Bliss, a fitness instructor.

Today the meme has over 12 million views on YouTube.

I think LeagueOfLegends missed an opportunity when doing Renata’s recall, so I did it myself: Renata Glasc, Freestyle Dance Teacher.
You’re welcome.
