I think the biggest problem with this is that Rhaast is a (Mostly) perma transformation, while things like Gnar and Mega Gnar and Eggnivia are only there for a set time period Also, in every case, they are easily identifyable by their name even when they have their new name Ex: Eggnivia - You can tell the nivia part is there, implying it's just Anivia Mega Gnar - Has Gnar's name in it, so you know it's still gnar
Meanwhile Rhaast - Wait... What the fuck is a Rhaast. We never had anyone that sounds like that on our team? I suppose the community would learn soon enough what the difference is, but I can completely understand Riot's reasoning for doing this, especially considering that his allies don't directly hear about rhaast unless they read into him.
I won't stand for this Rhaast erasure. Rito pls.
At the very least, I think they should change it on the scoreboard so you can see if Kayn went SA or Tank. Where his skin switches the main colors (i.e. Shadow Assassin is Orange/Red and Rhaast is Green/Blue) it would be nice to be able to actually figure out which version you are playing against so you can try to have some counterplay.
It would also be nice to see if the game was ended Shadow Assassin Kayn or as Rhaast instead of me just looking at a bunch of games played that tells me nothing as to what side was chosen, that is technically always wrong since Kayn players will 99% of the time transform during the game if they're not trolling/feeding their butts off.
EDIT: wording
The difference between Lulu's stuff, Mega-gnar, Egg-nivia and other similar cases, is that the change isn't permanent, temporary due to a timer. Kayn's transformations are, so it's a different case than all examples listed, and shouldn't be regarded the same way.
too confusing for new players to see name switch mid game
Eggnivia approves
They also do that for Anivia when she is in egg form. She is called Eggnivia.
For the people saying that it's confusing, they should add a global line of Rhaast announcement of Kayn's body, and Kayn's expellation of Rhaast.
i mean we got eggnivia, the lulu poly critters, and also mega gnar so i dont see why not
you're still playing kayn though
ive seen this suggestion before... i think it was either here or reddit
wouldnt changing kayn's name in game to rhaast be confusing to people who dont give a shit about lore and too confusing for new players? yes i know confusing for new players is an outdated hearthstone meme and was kinda stupid tbh but i can imagine a player seeing kayn, then rhaast and being confused
do "shadow assassin kayn" as well for blue kayn kayn-> hasnt chosen rhaast-> chose red kayn shadow assassin kayn-> chose blue kayn
You know, anivia's name in chat is eggnivia when she's in passive form
