Omega squad veigar's W (colorblind people unite!)

Riven Cant Cook·5/24/2018, 8:22:53 PM·67 votes·16,643 views

Hello dear Riot, I'm creating this post with no hope that any rioter will see it anyway but it's a very important change to be made. I'm colorblind, my overall league experience is great, but... Today for the first time I faced an enemy Veigar that had Omega Squad skin. The game was very painful for me because I couldn't dodge his W at all because it was invisible for my sight (this W is a thin line of red particles or a red shadow on a green floor of SR map, it is murdering me I can't see it at all). I had been trying to dodge it by hearing but still I had no idea where it was going to land. Please riot make it more visible or more colorblind people friendly. For example you could change its color on colorblind mode to blue. [sg-janna]

One year ago I created similar post about Taliyah's "worked ground" but nobody saw it because colorblind people are like 4.5% of earth's population and imagine how much of them are checking the boards or even playing League of Legends... My posts never get enough attention.

I'm not even colourblind (I think) and I have a hard time seeing it

Logged in just to upvote this, it would be nice to see Riot giving attention to such threads and trying to alleviate such problems.

This was brought up quite a few time if I remember when it was release back in July.

...It still hasn't been fixed

Good luck trying to get them to change anything. Years ago, I'd made a thread asking to change Headhunter's Nidalee spear for similar problems: https://boards.euw.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/champions-gameplay-en/7NrEZLXE-headhunter-nidalees-spear-is-hard-to-spot-especially-as-a-colorblind-person

Being colorblind myself, I do relate with the veigar. I got my ass handed to me a few games ago since I ate every single W of his. It's not a problem on any skin besides Omega Squad.

But again, I have my doubts about whether anything will change.

A rioter should see it. everyone should be able to play without any unfair conditions. Let's upvote this post so that it grabs their attention.

Veigars W is blind in all skins for everyone...they should make it easier to see with a circle or something

veigar's W in general is difficult to see, something really should be done about it, maybe have it show a circle similar to cho`gaths Q

omega squad is one of the pay to win skins, like iron legion lux with her lazerbeam ult that you didnt notice till it was about to go off.
there are a few pay to win skins out there, just gotta find em.
