Atlantean Syndra would be better off looking more like the splash art

After seeing the Atlantean Syndra skin on the PBE, at first I was realy excited, but more and more the skin is starting to become extremely faded, the skin features and the armour are becoming barely noticeable to tell apart.

I think the ballpoint of this skin is really missing the point, after seeing the Atlantean Syndra skin splash art appear on the PBE, it really gives a glimpse of how the skin could be impactful. The deep indigos and royal blues make the art pop, and could really distinguish the skin on the battleground.

What do you think? The colours in my opinion pop a lot more in the splash art, and doesn't exactly reflect the in game model, but I think the model can be tweaked to become a lot more stronger, because it's become rather faded, and dare I say dull.

Hmm...looking at both the splash art and PBE details it does seem to lack something, but its fine atm from what I can see. I'm also excited for this skin.

If I got Syndra, whom I don't own, I'd just get Justicar Syndra. Good skin, much more pop and contrast. Much better IMO.

Well the list of skins where the splash art looks 100x as good as the in game model is pretty massive. I wouldn't get your hopes up, although I do agree with you.

Well they already changed the coloring of the skin once already, I can see them do it again.

I'll eventually buy Syndra when she goes on sale or if I have a surplus of IP, and I'll eventually buy the skin if it goes on sale, but I'm thinking of instabuying both if they make the skin brighter and nicer to look at ingame.

Here's a recolor that was in General Discussion. I personally think (even though it's not looking perfect because it's not done by a professional) that it looks tons better.

The patch has been scheduled for the 22nd. I hope Riot seriously considers changing the color of the model to match that of the splash art. It would be the icing on the cake for such a great skin.
