[GAMEPLAY] Graphical Bug: Irelia's W active reverts her skin texture to her old textures (Patch 5.9)

Hi Riot Team,

I just want to report that the graphical bug with all Irelia skins on her W active has returned in patch 5.9

To reproduce: pick Irelia, activate Hiten Style, watch her beautiful new texture revert to the old textures for the duration of the active.

This issue was once fixed a few patches ago but has returned with patch 5.9.

Images can be found on the initial bug report ~4months ago i.e. http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/bug-report/5i4phy88-gameplay-irelia-reverting-to-old-textures-during-her-w

Edit: Upon further tests and a client repair, this issue seems to be exclusive to Aviator Irelia. The only Other skins I could test where base and Nightblade, which did not exhibit the texture revert after repair.

Hey Third Reign,

It looks like this issue was resolved in March. I just loaded her up, and I didn't see the texture changing.

If you're still seeing this on your end, I might suggested repairing your client.

Thanks for the quick reply KateyKhaos,

I know it was fixed previously, and all was fine for the previous patches, i just noticed that it occurs again with patch 5.9.

If its only on my end, I'll give the client repair a try and leave a note if the textures stay or not.

Edit: So I repaired the client and can confirm that Irelia's W changes to the old textures on activation. Something must have happened in patch 5.9 as I'm very sure this issue did not occur on 5.8. The skin I used was Aviator, as the brown blades are the most pronounced change in the texture rebalances.

Hopefully someone else can confirm this bug reoccurring on 5.9.

Edit2: Nightblade Irelia and Base Skin do not exhibit the texture revert, so it seems to only be an Aviator Irelia problem.

Picture with Champion Mastery for proof:
