I cannot tell the difference between Star Guardian Xayah and SG Rakan.

Title says it all. I know is pink and one is blue, but it doesn't really matter since they're in negative colors colors and just a few shades away because of the gradient. It basically is responsible for me losing my last game. I can't tell the difference. Really poor choice, Riot. I mean seriously poor choice.

If you're focusing on colors, that's kinda not how you do it though. The silhouettes for them are so vastly different, I really don't think it's the skins fault. Are you sure you just weren't paying attention?

I agree. Skins look great, but I almost took a rakan ult to the face because I was trying to bait xayahs ult out of him >_>

I mean. They look nothing alike.

One's a shirtless buff guy who's dashing around while the other's a petite goth girl throwing knives from a distance. Not to mention voice differences and animation differences.

Riot did a really good job with making all the Project skins look unique! I dont see why they couldn't do the same with the love birds.

I doubt anyone can. They've got all this BUSINESS on them that they look cluttered for no good reason.

I think their other skins are too matchy matchy as well. And rakan is not really much bulkier than Xayah which doesn't help either.

Same, it is becoming huge problem to find out difference between Xayah and Rakan while playing.

Rakan just plain doesn't look good in a Star Guardian skin, either. Xayah looks alright, all things considered. But Rakan is just creeping me out. I keep thinking of my poor sister...

I can see this with their blue and white team skins, but SG? Really? I could see it with some of the chromas where they're kind of just inverted versions of each other but the base SG skins are pretty stark in difference, Rakan is very heavily green and Xayah very heavily pink, including pretty much all of their particle effects.
