That's not a breastplate in the conventional sense. What she's wearing is the Aegis (which as it turns out is actually supposed to be armor), which is more of a scale mail thorax piece rather than a plate mail slab. It's also what Alexander the Great is often depicted wearing (the more you know).

Uh, that IS a breastplate. It covers her torso.

As for Aegis, I honestly have no clue why it's sometimes only covering her neck and why sometimes it covers her whole chest.

But the POINT is, whenever we see Athena fighting, not talking or standing over a peaceful time, she's armored, and not with a boob plate, but an actual breastplate.

As for the actual discussion of the kit, what is there to discuss? The general consensus is that it's actually original. People are iffy on the numbers, whether she has much burst or not, if her mobility would be insane, etc. But honestly, there's not much else to say. You have a knockup that only does so from behind, a skill that puts you behind someone, a reverse knockup ultimate, and a mobility boost plus game closer. Kit's simple.

Playstyle's also simple. We all know that she'll be wombo-combo like every other god, we know that fights will depend on who hits with their CC faster, like every other god, and we know that she's going to build the same as every other assassin, too. The only real different thing is slightly bigger autoattack range and hitting them before the CC, but that's not much different from Loki's playstyle, either. Or Bakasura's. Etc.

Sexualisation debates go nowhere so stahpit. Either way, I really like her kit. I think it;s a LITTLE strong with summon suku potentially having no cooldown but other than that I love how she has to get in close to do anything which actually makes her high risk, high reward in every sense of the world unlike certain other assassins (Ao and Serqet, I'm looking at you even though I love Ao).

I want to scream at that statement.

What do you MEAN, what is there to discuss? You know, besides roles, itemization, comps, combos, counters, you know, all that stuff. Unimportant stuff like, you know, her in the actual ******** game.

People were pretty whiny about her panther's time limit in Drybear's video... but I haven't played her to give an accurate opinion.

That's the problem for them, there ISN'T a time limit.

Roles? Jungle assassin, DUH.

Itemization? Same as every other assassin, same boots, crits, The Executioner, etc.

Comps? She'll fit against those with leaps, DUH. And she'll fit into every team comp like every other viable assassin, just like how Mercury and Serqet fit into any team comp.

Combos? Ahahaha. You mount up, get behind them, knock them up, pull. Simple as that; you faceroll your keyboard like every other assassin does. If you mean team combos, obviously Sylvanus and other knockup heavy champions just wombo combo LIKE EVERY OTHER TEAM COMP. Seriously, team killing wombo combos are very, very old, dating back to Alpha, and it hasn't changed at all.

Counters? Ahahahaha no. There is no counter to Awilix besides not having a leap, just like how Mercury has no counters, or Serqet has no counters. In this game, counterpicking isn't a significant thing, because everyone can do everything.

Like I said earlier, there's nothing to discuss.

As for the time limit, it's obvious that they're trying to do something similar to HOTS mount system, which is pretty interesting. Placing a time limit would just make it feel clunky and stupid - imagine being forced to dismount right before a gank, or dismounting while being chased. Or fighting someone on the thing and then dismounting in the middle of aiming your ability. Time limits aren't a good idea.
