I would really appreciate if a dev would actually answer. ; w; item 3070 item 3070 item 3070 item 3070

I've made around two threads on this subject, but only because Syndra is my favourite champion in the game and I had been waiting for this skin. Using this thread, I actually want an answer from Riot for why they wasted the legendry skin on Ahri and why they keep ignoring the fact that the huge part of the community requests a new VO for her skin. Of course, I do realize that when it comes to popularity, Ahri beats Syndra by far, and a skin for popular champion would make more money than one for a less popular champion. BUT. The skin really seems half-assed. When it comes to a solution, there might be 4 options:

  1. Ignore the community and keep the skin as it is, at its current price (1350 RP)

  2. Make the skin cheaper (975 RP)

  3. Make the skin legendary (though that would take some time)

  4. Give her a new VO for the skin and keep her at the price of 1350 RP (e.g. Freljord Taliyah)

I made a poll so you could vote on which option sounds better. I hope this thread would help improve the skin (which also has a lot of potential) Have a nice day, everyone! :3 http://www.strawpoll.me/13707238 Syndra UPDATE: I also have a poll on my first thread, you could vote there if you want~ https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/general-discussion/dPAiZtMT-star-guardian-syndra

UPDATE 2: After looking at all the 2017 SG skins, I've noticed some things:

  1. SG Ezreal has a new idle animation, and a new animation when he uses his R (I think)
  2. SG Soraka has a new ultimate animation
  3. SG Miss Fortune has a new idle animation and a new animation whenever she uses her R

Syndra didn't get anything to make her feel special. The other ones got idle animations, new ability animations, but all that Syndra got was a weird movement with her arms after she laughs (might as well be a bug).

UPDATE 3: Someone made a SG Syndra VO that you can download and use it in game, check it out!

So if someone who doesn't have a budget as big as Riot can do it, then Riot can too~

UPDATE 4: There's a popular thread on reddit about this skin, if you want to read it, here it is! https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/6svnt6/star_guardian_syndra_feedbacksuggestions/?st=j6f1q0cs&sh=1f7ae40c

Also, Riot has closed the bugs & feedback thread for SG Syndra, yet they haven't answered any question regarding her VO. https://boards.pbe.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/general-pbe-feedback/IeXlV3Iq-pbe-bugs-feedback-thread-star-guardian-syndra

The next update will contain comments from SG Syndra's skin spotlights, stay tuned!

UPDATE 5: Hello everyone! As promised, this update will contain comments from SG Syndra's Skin Spotlights!

**They should just completely change the voiceline and make this a legendary skin... The original lines just doesn't work right.**

**No unique VO :( Just doesn't seem right at all, not buying.**

**I'm happy that syndra is getting a star guardian skin, but did Riot seriously give her any new voice overs? I dont know if the state of this skin justifies the price point.**

**I feel like THIS is the skin that needed to be a legendary, not Ahri's. The voiceovers dont match but it's a really nice looking skin.**

SQUPO's video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSaA89JxzpY

**Kinda ok, but hey those voice effects dont really fit with Star Guardian dont they ? She still sounds evil while she's supposed to be on the good camp here**

No. Just no. Doesn't fit her at all + a skin with the purple theme? like her classic one? Excuse me but these new 'Star Guardian' skins are so stupid it's kind of pissing me off. The only one that made sense - at least to me - was Soraka. Maybe even Ezreal, with eyes closed. But SYNDRA? LOL. Might as well just shout out how big of a cash grab this is.

**the only thing good about this skin is the particles, she doesn't feel star guardiany, she looks like they stick a lot of polygons on her outfit and now looks like a charcter straight from a lego movie. I was sooo hyped. still no good skin for her up until now.**

UPDATE 6: The final update for the Star Guardian skins has taken place. There was no change for Syndra, and not any answer for why they didn't change her voice or remove the filter on her VO. Riot just ignored everyone that asked about that skin, what a surprise...

UPDATE 7: The skin spotlight for SG Syndra has just appeared, but so did the comments regarding her VO. Skin Spotlight: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jx_uhTNWDis&t=94s

Comments:

**They should have removed the voice effects from her voice so we get a normal girl voice that fits perfectly this skin**

**For censored sake, give her different lines and take way here filter!!! Nobody asked for ahri, give syndra special dialog**

the voice destroys this wonderful skin. wish they could just remove the voice filter

**The skin is really good but Syndras voice doesn't fit at all**

So once again, before this skin goes on the live servers. If any rioter is seeing this, please at least remove the voice filter or add some new quotes. You always talk about how you listen to the community if a large amount of people have the same issue, so please, do something to this skin, don't ruin it just because of a small thing such as a VO. item 3070

yea tbh the voice lines do not work with her.

KuroCaliber8/14/2017, 10:30:45 PM5 votes

Just remove her voice processor and she suddenly fits the aesthetic. Her quotes aren't perfect, but they do not counter what her fantasy is.

Riot has been extremely lazy on those SG skins. Obviously a quick and easy cash grab, don't expect them to lift a finger to fix anything anymore, fixing Ahri's hair was already too much work for them. lol.

The thing I personally find funny about their stance on Star Guardian Syndra is, why'd they go through such great lengths to pound it into our heads that, hey, she's different from the other four, if they weren't going to make her's special in any way?

Her in game model's outfit is extremely different from any other star guardian, she's got an eyepatch that's supposed to have some sort of backstory, the species that makes up her orbs have their own lore, they've hinted that there's more than meets the eye with her character in the star guardian universe, hell, they've even physically made her stand the opposite way apart from the other four in her splash art AND gave her the most individual looking special border icon. So again, I ask, if they tried THAT HARD to make her the stand-out character of the five, WHY IN HALF-FROZEN HELL DIDN'T THEY JUST MAKE HER SKIN THE LEGENDARY?!?

I have no idea why they just didn't give her a final boss skin over the star guardian.

Anyway when is star guardian taric coming?
