High Noon Yone (Legendary + Scam Chroma), Evelynn (Prestige), Gragas, and Rell

Wanted: Dead, alive, or somewhere in between.

I’m biased because I have a fat crush on Yone and I hate Dawnbringer.

But yeah obviously Rell probably deserved it more.

I think the gun/sword thing is really cool though and if Katarina had gotten the last legendary they could’ve done something similar with her q maybe. Though clarity-wise, it’d probably be difficult.

Anyways, any skinline with angel/demon or good/evil themes is going to fit well with Yone.

Also his main lore translates well into him being a bounty hunter.

the hat, the mask, wowza

I think it’s hilarious that he’s still shirtless

Rell’s hair looks incredible.

Evelynn 😻😻

Porcelain Protector Aurelion Sol (Legendary), Porcelain Morgana, Miss Fortune, Darius, Graves, Irelia, and Kindred (Prestige)

I have a lot of thoughts about Irelia

simply based on irelia’s caption on twitter being “dainty by design”, i’m assuming it was an intentional design decision to make her appear more delicate, especially since it’s the porcelain skinline

even though toughness and ruggedness are more emphasized in darius’s and graves’s descriptions and “delicate” and “dainty” are one of the last words I would ever use to describe irelia

regardless, i do find her proportions a bit weird and her face and some featured are much sharper than normal

i actually really like her shorter hair and i believe they compensated for that shape with the sort-of slitted cape thing she wears, though i personally think her bangs on the model look a bit goofy

i think the ram horns are very cute

the original point i wanted to make is that i associated rams a bit more with aggressiveness compared to sheep (i just found out rams are male sheep), so i think giving irelia those curved horns—regardless of it having that softer shape language—to me, presents her as more assertive and more like default irelia

her upper half especially is so thin and i think that’s what really makes her look like a genshin character

my partner said she looks like “drx anime princess ashe”

anyways fluffy kindred good 👍

i think it’s interesting to see how they adapt the new prestige concept to non-human champions

i remember warwick’s being very well received and i do think kindred’s falls a bit short of that

Riot Layoffs

Below is a list of Rioters (especially creatives) affected by the recent layoffs. Some seem to point to the generous severance package as reason for why Riot is a “good company” but I think it’s the least they could do considering that many received no warning of their termination and had to find out at the same time as the players while others were left to wonder if they still have a job.

Small edit based on some of the responses I’ve been seeing on Twitter: League of Legends is as successful as it is because of the passionate people behind it. Your favorite skin concepts and music groups and even Arcane only exist because of their creativity and determination, not because Riot, the company itself, created them.

I will try to keep updating this list.

Given the Riot layoffs, I do want to acknowledge some of the talented people who were affected in a more dedicated post. That being said, I was very surprised to see that Julia Shi was let go considering the amazing work she did on the Heartsteel project.

Heartsteel Early Explorations by Julia Shi

i kinda like the red form concept. very reminiscent of k/da akali but i love love love the final product with the mask.

also kayn literally being a dog on a leash lol

yone 👉👈

the first sketch is kinda cool but pls do not ever make yone blond

Season 2024 Look Ahead

A very quick summary of the dev video posted an hour ago. This summary is mostly skin/champion-related with very little regarding gameplay.

Skarner VGU is very close to being released

An Arcane character will be receiving a VGU early next year -> this was specifically called an "Arcane-inspired VGU", aiming to bring "their Arcane version to the rift" featuring updated visuals, voice lines, and gameplay, which leads me to believe that this character is Viktor though Singed and maybe even Heimerdinger also seem possible.

Shyvana VGU will be released in 2025 after the Arcane character VGU -> her VGU will focus more on visuals and expanding her lore rather than overhauling it. from the concept art, they appear to be working on making her buffer, which was, from what I saw, a common grievance about her Immortal Journey splash art.

Dragon ADC Smolder has been revealed. His abilities can be found in a video posted by SkinSpotlights.

Mel's mother, Ambessa Medarda, will be released as a champion and "won't be for the faint of heart in game".

Arcane S2 will bring new gameplay and new skins -> based on the trailer, both Singed and Warwick appear to be contenders for receiving an Arcane skin. Viktor, especially as a fan-favorite, also seems likely, though I'm not sure how that might work if it is released before his supposed VGU.

The following champions will be receiving a prestige skin in the first half of 2024: Rakan, Ezreal, Kindred, Evelynn, Kayle. Rakan's has already been revealed to be Prestige Dragonmancer Rakan. Ezreal's prestige will be for this year's Lunar New Year skinline, Heavenscale, which will focus more on an ancient thematic similar to Lunar Revel.

Other champions receiving a Heavenscale skin include Lee Sin, Kai'Sa, Master Yi, Diana, Janna, and Smolder. -> this makes Kai'Sa's second Lunar New Year skin when counting Wild Rift's Lunar Fairy Kai'Sa (third if you also include her Special Edition/Prestige), Ezreal's second (third, again, if you count his prestige), and Diana's third without any variants (bc she's the moon get it).

New Primal Ambush skinline revolves around tiger thematics and draws heavy inspiration from Southeast Asian cultures. Champions receiving a Primal Ambush skin include Vi, Talon, Sivir, and Riven, each with icons.

Porcelain, Faerie Court, PROJECT, and Blood Moon will be returning in the first half of the year -> this was not included in the video but was posted by BBB: the champions receiving a Porcelain skin include Kindred (prestige), Graves, Darius, Miss Fortune, Morgana, Irelia, and Aurelion Sol.

Old legendary skins will be revisited to receive loading screen borders.

Rammus and Olaf will probably be receiving skins this year.
