@Riot, Lancer Stratus Wukong didn't hit the quality bar, therefore should be cancelled!

You've done it before with the Sewn Chaos Amumu and Blitzcrank skins , and Carlos explained why.

If you check the YouTube preview of the skin, you can clearly see there's a lot of negative feedback https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jPIA7LF59IY

Although Wukong needs a new skin, he doesn't deserve a skin of such low quality and nothing mind blowing compared to his previously released skins which bring more thematically, and gameplay wise, not to mention the splash art as well.

Why didn't you give us the ability to choose 1 of 3 skin concepts like you did with ? It would have been fun and more fair since the majority will be the deciding factor of the chosen skin!

But do you know what frustrates me the MOST? Is that you actually dared to take Radiant Wukong's special voice line "If you don't fight, you can't make friends." and put it in the Lancer stratus wukong skin. And if you listen carefully, you'll hear the Radiant Wukong's voice but with some Mecha (or I don't know what to call it) echo being added to it. This really tells much about the effort and work that was put into creating this skin which if you asked any Wu main will tell you it's absolutely not worth the money.

If you want to create a low quality skin, go ahead, release it, I'm not spending my money on that thing, but do me a favor and keep the special voice line movement quote "If you don't fight, you can't make friends" for Radiant Wukong ONLY.

Really not seeing how the skin constitutes as "low quality". You gave no reasoning of any kind in your post.

And as BVG said, the comments seem to be largely positive, with some saying how it's not the best thematic fit for him.

Lastly, how is THIS:

a bad splash art?

The video has a bunch of thumbs up, new particles, looks polished, I mean its anecdotal but I like it too... I don't see why it would be pulled?

Just.. Get over it...

I understand, This isn't going to be your favorite skin...

But just face that it's going to happen.

looks fine to me only complaints I see in the comment sections are that it "doesn't fit him"

I think it's ugly too, but I cried over SG Ezreal cause I didn't like it, thought the theme was bad for him, hated the look, and it still got released so I'll never completely own all his skins cause I don't want that one. Riot sometimes releases skins we hate for our champs. It happens.

This one looks, to me, at least like a more finished product than the Sewn Chaos skins. It's a bizarre, weird looking skin imo and I would never get it, but I don't think that's gonna get it pulled. It has particles and the whole design holds up.

I still think underworld is superior. If this is a gemstone skin then hell no not interested.

That was a completely different circumstance. She hadn't seen a skin for over two years... and that was since her RELEASE. Wukong hasn't seen a skin in 2 years but has had 5 of them previously. So the two cases don't go together. Plus, a lot of people didn't like the turn out for that, so that will really make them rethink how they approach it next time should they do that.

I actually think the skin has decent quality to it, you can clearly see new HQ effects, sfxs, ect. It isn't on the low level that the Sewn Chaos skins were at, they won't cancel this.

Skin looks cool. I'd gladly use it if I got it over Infernape, Jade, and Underworld. Not always, but sometimes.

"The skin isn't the one I specifically wanted, so nobody should have it! Fuck the weeks or months of paid work that went into it's creation, it needs to be scrapped entirely because some other people and I don't like it at all!!1!1"
