Whereas, if you were to remove all of that, it could be sold to teens. This means that when a game includes drugs, alcohol, and tobacco, it will be marketed to a higher age group and have a higher age rating. The nature of a game tends to affect its rating. The cigar had caused censorship problems in some countries. Why Did They Steal His Cigar Again?ĭigging through conversations from the past, RiotSilver (a Riot employee) had given a brief answer as to why the cigar was removed in the past (we’re sure this is the same reason today). The League of Legends community was so happy to see this, so when Graves’ popped up without his cigar again, everyone was a bit confused …and since Riot hasn’t made an official announcement, the confusion is still there. When Graves’ got his cigar back, the community wasn’t sure of the reasoning but figured Riot had worked something out or the ratings in other countries may have changed. While the use of tobacco may be acceptable in the United States, the same cannot be said for other parts of the world, and this is something that Riot tries to tend to. Is this something Riot Games snuck past us, or is it just an accident? However, back in July of 2020, players began to notice something different about Graves…once again, he didn’t have his cigar in his splash arts. Three years later, in 2017, Graves’ started his old habits again as Riot handed him his cigar. Was the cigar just a figment of our imaginations, or did Grave have one? That Time Graves Got His Cigar Backĭo you remember that time Graves got his cigar back? After years of having his iconic cigar in the game, as we previously mentioned, it was removed from the game due to age restrictions and censorship in different regions. However, as soon as this cigar was introduced, it seems to have vanished overnight, and Riot never explained it. When this new addition popped up, many thought it was cool because it matched Graves’ character and background. One of those mysteries would be Graves’ cigar. When a change occurs, Riot usually has a logical reason behind them, but then you have some changes that have remained a mystery. From individual champion rewords to the visual update, Riot seems to love making changes. Many were not happy with this decision.įor those of you who have been playing League of Legends long enough, we know you have witnessed a whole lot of changes. During this time, when players learned what they did to Graves’, the League of Legend community spoke out. While Graves’ was known for his cigar use, back in 2014, Riot made him quit cold turkey because the tobacco use laws are different from one region to the next.
