Please fix Dawnbringer Riven.

I know I might be super late on this but there seems to be a box around the skin that when your "cape" thing goes out of it loses its lining. When you stand still the "cape" is mostly inside of it the lines are there but when you move the lines disappear. Literally unplayable.

I know this came up on release. I want to say the reason it's like that is some tech limitation that resulted in massive frame rate drops if they tried to force it to draw lines in a larger box, but I could be thinking of a different bug.

That would make sense, but in that case why not just reduce the "cape" size that way it fits within the box? I understand it may be a design choice or something but I personally feel like it takes away from the skin.

This isn't the only instance of this happening. Several other champions/skins have this problem too.

Oddly enough, new champions are coming out without that lining. I believe the first one that was really noticeable was Kayn.....probably has to do with his passive, I'm not sure.

But, if I'm not mistaken, what you are seeing is the actual outline of the hitbox for that champion. Sometimes, the model for said champion is just slightly bigger than the hitbox in whatever way (for example, the cape on Dawnbringer Riven) that makes it look like that.

As for other examples, I can't think of any right now.

Call me crazy but if they've started to release champion skins without that issue and know how to fix it, why wouldn't they go back to the expensive skins that have those issues and fix them? I understand it would take time but considering how much money people have payed for the skins it would be a worth while fix.
