Asians have a strong aversion for non-human characters. You see the same thing in league of legends where the champ design became a strict binary between shirtless male/attractive anime girl as soon as they took over the majority of the market

Valve games have a vastly different audience than Riot games. Asia doesn't give a fuck about Deadlock but Russia and Europe does, and those two regions prefer monsters and wicked looking dudes just as much as hot bitches.

Riot on the other hand pander almost exclusively to Koreans and Chinese.

After that, you saw the end of Christmas and Halloween skins, the retiring of the Christmas map, and maximum effort was put into monetizing Lunar New Year skins. Monster champions were reeled back. Remember when Riot get grilled because they said "we already made a monster champion this year, Lillia"?

Every female became an anime girl and every male became a bishounen because that's what sells skins for 90% of the playerbase, who exist in China. Where is the game growing? Vietnam and southeast asia where they have the same general tastes as the Chinese fandom. It's impossible for them to cater to American or European players because who cares about 2-3% of all LoL players? It's LITERALLY not for us anymore.
