Archlight Vel'Koz Visual Bug

i guess since the update allowing vel to grab onto thresh's lantern was made, it somehow messed with vel's arclight skin. the skin was fine before the patch. After a few games on TT (not tested on SR, but worth looking in to), the skin works as normal. After the first death, once i respawn, vel's tentacles are no longer visible for the rest of the game. dying does not reset it. my teammates can also see that the tentacles are not visually represented. i used classic and battlecast velkoz to test the same thing. those textures work fine. it appears the bug is specific to the arclight skin.
