Helmet Toggle Needed for Kayle

Why doesn't Kayle have a helmet toggle?

One of the defining things about Kai'Sa is the ability to change the helmet, and it looks pretty legit on her too (I swap multiple times a game)

It's pretty unfortunate she doesn't have one. Her helmet was a huge part of her theme, telling us that justice has no face, it is simply justice. It gave the same feeling as Samus or Master Chief or Judge Dredd, their identity is their actions, trying to add too much personality to that by giving them a face would take away from that identity. This is exactly what I feel happened to Kayle

Because, whether we like it or not, Kayle's appearance is linked towards her passive's power stage she's in. It's the same reason why Kha'zix looks different when he evolves, and why Syndra's abilities start to look different when she maxes them. By adding in a toggle, whether you think the wings is enough of a distinguishing factor or not, you've just added two new appearances that could or could not appear in a game.

Kai'sas helmet, is not indicative of her current upgrades for her abilities, nor is Rengar's hood. If it was purely cosmetic, and Kayle had just one form she had the entire game, I would be fully on board. But sadly, that's just how Kayle be now.

Helmer can be toggled through the use of the "Unmaked kayle" skin

Doesn't she have an "unmasked" legacy skin?
