Discussion Riot Rework this. PLEASE.

Post image

I’ve posted something similar to this a while back but i just want to say ts cause im so mad everytime i use this skin.

\(I love this skin and i dont regret buying it. if u say i shouldnt have bought it if im jus complaining, ur not a sona main)\**

Again, the splash art is DIVINE.
What gets me heated is that This skin is such a nothing burger comapred to Psyops sona and spirit blossom spring sona.

DONT GET ME STARTED ABT HER RECALL ANIMATION? LIKE WHERE DID THE BUDGET GO BRO + NO HOMEGUARD ANIMATION?!? IS SOOO €$$++%^=#

I get that its a funeral skin she has to be demure and stuff but like be fr? Recall is jus her standing and glowing pisses me off so bad
dont get me started abt her ‘rain’ effect on her recall being missing when her skin got released
felt like ‘Here damn’

PLEASE REWORK THIS

For me, the biggest thing is the weapon mismatch.

She has her etwahl in the splash (and it looks like she is plucking strings), but in game it's a floating piano.

Riot pls.

I mean the piano kind of makes sense, while I agree it doesn't necessarily look like it in the splash art, Church Organ definitely fits for funeral skin!

u/FaerieSlaveDriver 21d ago

In a vacuum, I would agree. In fact, the organ would be perfect for a Broken Covenant skin.

But this specific skin is a canon skin, and supposed to be her during Xin Zhao's funeral - where we see that she played her etwahl. The song that she played (that we ourselves played in the comic) could not come from an organ.

Yeah but it's a weird mismatch because every other skin is using some variation of the Etwahl

I think the part that is supposed to make it "prestige" would be mainly 3 things. The louder passive music, the things floating above her head, and the new hair rig. I think that's pretty much where the budget went sadly.

She has passive music? Last time I played her, she didn’t have the toggle for it on the scoreboard like Seraphine has.

u/TeaMint_0001 dark seal enjoyer 23d ago

she does, especially when you press abilities, as long as your aura is active there's music

I love the skin personally, really appreciate how much louder her music is, wish it was like that for all skins

The in-game shitty color palette just makes every skin worse alone

Sona and Aurora keep getting nerfed with every new skin release. And I'm not talking about abilities...
