Chamber’s Ultimate Line is Odd

Has anyone else here felt that Chamber’s ultimate line sounds a little bit unnatural? If not, let me explain my rationale for thinking this.

There is a noticeable lack of pause between the lines “You want to play?” and “Let’s play.” This kills the dramatic effect that ultimate lines are supposed to have. It doesn’t flow very well, making the line sound underwhelming compared to other ultimates.

Adding a dramatic pause in between these two lines could easily solve this issue, adding a lot of weight behind his dialogue. His tone is already good, but the timing just seems off.

Riot may have done this intentionally to keep the ult line as short as possible, which makes sense for the game. Keep distractions to a minimum. However, it would be nice if they added a little more delay between the two phrases, as it would make the character’s dialogue more impactful. It is an ultimate line after all!

What do you all think? Have you noticed this too? I’m interested in seeing what you guys think!
