2 Aesthetic Suggestion: For Sheen. Make it different from Nunu's W and make it play crit animation

Riot, you're all about your "Readability" and no tricking newbies for trivial stuff and all that. So tell me...........how after ALL THIS LONG TIME does Nunu's W still look just like item 3057's buff?!

So here's my suggestion........

1) Either change Nunu's W or item 3057's effect so that they are no longer the same thing

And while we're on item 3057................. . . .

Anyone notice how BADASS some of the AP champion's critical animations are?! Even though there is literally no reason to build critical strike in MOST mages?

I feel that badass animation is wasted, therefore what if..........

2. Sheen/Lichbane/Frozen Fist's proc-attack will play the critical hit animation of the champion

Put that sweet ass crit animation on champions that will never ever build critical % to work! If anyone doesn't believe me, go look at some AP mages in the model viewer and see their critical hit animations.

Will people stupidly mistake a Sheen proc for a crit? Course not! (unless you're blind) Because critical strikes also have a flashy number that comes with the animation.

Fully supported. Alot of the critical animations are so awesome, and its all wasted, because not everyone is an ADC.

Ironically, ADC's also have some of the most bland crit animations unless you're Draven.

Yes that is true now that I go through in my head of the critical animations for ADCs. 8)

Or does he... no he doesn't

I have built it before. It is VERY situational, but Lich Bane can help if are fighting a team that excels at reaching Vel'Koz.

Wait, you haven't been building IE first on zel'koz? The BT rush isn't as good, because you can get 2ish crits with a single e. That's a lot of damage!

AP Sona would be pleased if the crit-animation on spellblade carried over to lich bane.

The most hilarious thing is the best crit animations are on champions that NEVER BUILD CRIT...............................the sole exception being Draven

it is so weird, most adc's have horrible crit animations while people that will NEVER build any ad ( hello Velkoz ) have some incredible animations. RITO PLS DO IT!!!

Iceborn Gauntlet...

Chilly Mittens...

My favorite is, of course,

The Frozen Fists of Fury!

Like the Galactic Hyper-Barrier! and the Fiery Heart of the Yordle Inferno! etc

TTGL was so great I am disappointed in myself for not being really able to play Rumble.

I would love this, I play Skarner a lot and his crit animation looks so..... dangerous looking (he actually uses his stinger for something other than dragging people, he stabs'em). If sheen proc used the crit animation I would probably find myself playing him even more just cause it'd look awesome.

Laughing Fish1 votes

I agree with you 100%. I use Velkoz quite often, and he has one of the best Critical animations of any champion imo. However, I NEVER see it in game, because why the hell would I build critical on Vel'Koz? If Sheen (and the items it builds into) would spark the crit animation, I would be a happy man indeed.

I love this idea. Orianna's crit animation is so funny to watch but she never uses it. Would love to have it even if she rarely builds sheen.

and if u think im kidding i have a rune page dedicated to crit chance named velkoz the crit god (its not finished but shut up you dont know me)

Or rather...lets make Nunu's not a bizarre, abstract red blob.

I wonder if Viktor's empowered autoattack has a different animation for critting...

This has been suggested a lot lately....

LuckyReden1 votes

Lol, that would help a lot, given that I just now realized that was sheen and not Phage. I thought it was phage always. LOL pls change that.

Can we please make sure that Warwick's W on allies gets changed too? Other than that, though, yes, please.
