Something I've Personally Experienced With Skins

I play Wu...a lot. And I own most of his skins. And the thing that I have noticed is that allies respond more quickly and with better success when I play Radiant Wukong.

I theorize that it has something to do with his bright visuals and seemingly larger appearance that makes him more noticeable to allies, enhancing their awareness of where I am and what I am doing.

Does anyone else experience something similar? Do you find yourself winning (edit) OR losing more often with brightly colored and/or illuminated skins?

yes i agree. There was one skin on a adc i used to play that was really really bright, ANd i would die all the time cuz people would focus me and see me clearly in team fights. ive learned sticking with dark colors works better

Interesting. So, for champions that want to shift focus off them may want to stick to inconspicuous skins and champions that want to shift the focus onto them may want to use skins that are vibrant.

Too bad most Star Guardian skins are for squishy champions.

Poppy being an exception, lol.

When I play TPA Ezreal, ~~my team actually tries to win for the first time in days~~ it seems as if my team doesn't want to give up as easily as normal.

Top 4 Reasons People AFK

Real life rears its ugly head and the player has to leave to deal with it.
The player is a troll and delights in ruining the game for others no matter the consequences.
The player is easily tilted and rage quits early after handing two or more kills to the enemy in the span of five minutes.
The player has a bad computer or internet connection, are randomly disconnected, or lose power. Basically technical difficulties outside their control.

It has nothing to do with the skin you use.
