The in-game model for Victorious Graves is utterly disapointing

Hadfield·10/24/2017, 9:24:26 PM·295 votes·11,948 views

Alright so the teaser image Graves has:

http://media.comicbook.com/2017/10/league-of-legends-victorious-graves-1033072-1280x0.jpg

  • Slick hair with some classy curls at the end
  • Greasy mustache, fit for a thick cigar
  • Badass wolf elements on his metalwork, you need strong muscles to carry that much metal
  • Lee van Cleef nose, sharp as a spearhead

However, the in-game model Graves has

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DM7dXH-WkAE5Iks.jpg:large

  • Actual Justin Bieber haircut, he looks like he does FIFA pack openings on Youtube
  • Super metro beard, this guy only vapes
  • A leg brace, he probably broke his leg when he fell out of meta
  • Dull, plastic looking wolf elements on his gun and shoulder (Yeah he was nerfed, but that doesn't mean he has to use an actual Nerf gun)

What happened?

I don't think the colors that were used for this skin, the pink/purple look that great.

God this is awful looking. The gun needs to be completely redone and all the colors on the model need to be darkened alot. I agree the shoulder piece looks fake and needs to be replaced by a larger metallic piece. At least he doesnt have a man bun and hipster glasses.

the dull colors aren't helping it. It needs a lot more metallic looking on the gold accents to contrast the marble.

also for some reason the splash is mirrored ???

Guess they saw the complains on Death Sworn in game models and were like. Can we actually disappoint them even more ? Yup. Challenge accepted.

the ugliest victorious skin by far

DianaIsMyWife10/24/2017, 10:48:32 PM5 votes

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELL............

Quess what the skin is garbage but

Does RIOT give a shit about you opinion or any players opinion for that matter?

NO. they just do their own thing and we just have to accept it

Same thing happened with BM DIANA ( Amazing but i mean Amazing Splash art but horrible in game skin overall )

It looks like a chroma for the classic skin tbh.

He looks like a power ranger and a matador had an angry plastic love child.

Automatis10/24/2017, 11:31:04 PM3 votes

its a free skin that nobody wants, I doubt they put that much effort in.

QuitQuitting10/25/2017, 2:08:12 PM3 votes

I was just about to create a discussion about it. I think this is the worst victorious skin ever made like. Its disapointing i expected something way more good. Too bad. I really hope that riot will consider more before they release i think there is a hope that this skin gets a better before the release I hope item 3151

So I spent my 4 days of fall break off school instead of doing something fun with my friends, I spent it ranking up from silver 2 to gold 5 and this is what I get? Instant regret I want my silver 2 rank back with my 4 days off school back pls.

Fegone10/26/2017, 2:17:32 PM3 votes

I'm debating to int a few ranked games to get demoted back to Silver, because the ingame skin model seriously looks that bad...

rojo410/26/2017, 7:35:48 PM3 votes

Agreed. I don't even feel bad about completely neglecting ranked now.

Gelato10/26/2017, 8:58:28 PM3 votes

This skin is a fat disappointment. It is super hideous and a slap in the face for players who actually put in the work to get to gold. SMH Riot.

VelvetCrotch10/26/2017, 9:29:00 PM2 votes

wanted to get gold 5 till season ends to get this skin, cause the teaser hyped me.

but now i dont want to get gold, cause this skin looks sh*t.

imo the biggest problems are:

  • his colors: too bright, the metal/gold should be darker
  • the wolfshoulder is a tad too big
  • the haircut doesnt fit

thought he would look more like this:

https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/theorder1886/images/5/54/Grayson_Portrait_-2.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20150311060505

and why different variation for 3v3, flex etc? (imo the green one looks the "best" - if u can call it that way...)

Well they have shown they listen to the community (the skt t1 sivir incident) so hopefully they will listen. this skin makes him look like a shitty character from lego knights kingdom

This skin is actually horrible, the bullets don't look that good the moves basically only have a recolor and no effects, and all the models look discusting, the fizz chroma looks better than this.

PaladinNO10/26/2017, 7:01:45 PM2 votes

Which side of him is the wolf ornament on the shoulder even on?

I know winter is coming (and already has here), but daymn!

People get a free skin, so they complain about it.
