You can only copy and paste the same body type into different colored variations of the same suit and slap on star-glitter vfx so many times.

meh. The choice of champions is not that great and the skins don't look colorful enough.

This. I couldn't word it properly, but it's this.

I wouldnt be surprised if they make their non corrupted forms a ruby chroma for each of them [slayer-jinx-unamused]

Wayward Fish3 votes

It's confirmed on twitter that there is no toggle or "star guardian" form, because they're both 1820 skins and the voice lines don't support that.

Neeko hugs the frog from her release trailer in her recall. I don't see how your wallet could possibly be safe from that level of cuteness.

Jesus christ Rakan is so good, he becomes an eldritch horror!

Also Zoe has Splatoon SFX on her E. As if Cyberpop wasn't enough of a reference haha

I can’t believe that they still haven’t given Taliyah one of these...

They don't even look like star guardians except for Neeko. Disappointing.

I always disliked the dark star skins and these are no different. I'll wait for them to get ACTUAL star guardian skins.

No Taliyah, no Urgot, no Ornn.

Well

As someone who has steadily adored Star Guardians since Lux, I feel these are both unfitting and very meh, even if they are well-made animations. Very sad to say, as I've waited 2 years for them

The only one I really like so far is Neeko. The other ones aren't colorful and pastel enough...Riot, that's_ the whole point_ of the SG line...

no Sona? v.v

I mean, while I love the whole "Star Guardian Xayah is corrupted into being a dark star" and vice versa with Rakan, that's still not what I want to see, with how devoted I am to the Star Guardian universe. Make a VS event, if you must.

A lot of people don't seem to be understanding the concept and lore behind these skins. They're corrupted and supposedly Ahri's lost teammates. Arhi's w and her little sprite have 3 stars that go around them, one green, one blue and one yellow, these are the new skins/champions in this video. I personally actually like that League has thought about their lore and story for these skins, rather than just bringing out what everyone would want. Who knows, there may even be Chroma's later on like the Reckoning ones which shows their true forms. Would be pretty cool.

Kinky Taliyah5 votes

Alright, I think waiting 2 years for these has been an awful waste of time. I do think the lore will be worth waiting for however. I'm not mad because of Taliyah not getting a skin, us Tali mains learned how to get over the depression of her not getting a skin, nor am I made about Zoe getting another skin. My problem is how they somehow turned the most beautiful and colorful skin set into light Dark Stars. Even somehow having the little Dark Star flare on Xayah and Rakan. Yes, they obviously did this for the lore. Yes, the little recall scene between Xayah and Rakan is cute as hell. But even so, could we have not just had the Star Guardian skins turn into corrupted skins in the recall? That makes so much more sense. I get that it's something different, but changing the whole tone of the skin line and making it almost identical to another isn't how you should do that.

Also, Neeko being there is purely for money. I highly doubt that Neeko was in Ahri's team and not Zoe. We know that the team is either Ahri, MF, Xayah, Rakan and most likely Zoe. Those 3 being corrupted by Syndra. They took the concept of having 3 corrupted Star Guardians and turned it into a four champion skin set and gave the prestige to Neeko who wasn't in the original team, dictated by her not being corrupted. Now we have 3 teams, and just Neeko chillin'. I don't know how they'll write her into the lore.

RoseNova2 votes

Yes I agree!! I heavily dislike that they will be dark 90% of the time. I really wanted bright SG skins for them. The lore is great but I think the corrupted recall is a great idea and solution.

Sukishoo4 votes

Called it, I knew one of them was gonna be Zoe.

And really, Xayan and Rakan? Pshh. I think they are suited for it as much as I felt Neeko was. Disappointment.

On the other hand though, they are like wayyyyyyy dark vs the original 2 sets. Though that teaser did show the "before her darkness burns you away" moment. So something must have been corrupting them. Either that or maybe they used Chromas like they did on the Elderwood Ahri preview?

Tin Obliterates4 votes

So are these (except for Neeko I guess) supposed to be partially corrupted or something?

Sukishoo2 votes

Seems like it, since the teaser did go back to the 2017 video and show the Ahri moment about saving them before "her darkness burns you all away."

Zoe: Doesn't look like a Star Guardian. The "Dark" Guardian is Syndra and trying to go for a colour pattern darker than hers ruined the skin

Rakan: A Star Guardian tempted by the Darkstar's and turning into one in his backing animation. Interesting Idea.

Xayah: The complete opposite of Rakan. A Darkstar finding the light in the Star Guardians and becoming one in her backing animation.

Intersting contrast to her and Rakan's love, both become the other's ally to become friendlies but end up BOTH switching sides which in turn preserves their alleigance as enemies.

Neeko: A proper star Guardian, she seems to have bright orange patterns bleachy enough to differencialize her from MF. But another colour pattern entirely should have been considered.

Rakan actually gives up his "soul gem" I guess? To Xayah which transforms her back into a Star Guardian, as seen in the recalls. So it's not really Rakan trying to become a darkstar, but more so saving Xayah.

...... Worst Star Guardian skins ever. Clearly bad choices, only one that looks good is Neeko. Otherwise these are very disappointing.

MissWulfy2 votes

The whole point is that Zoe, Xayah and Rakan aren’t supposed to look entirely like Star Guardians because they’re corrupted, don’t be dull.

tbh i think these are the best Star Guardian skins so far. quality is good (for once xayah and rakan have a skin thats worth buying )so i guess its just subjective.

Yea I don't have any issues with the skins besides how Zoe looks when you zoom in.

Xayah and Rakan looking fresh tho https://i.redd.it/a7uaydpl2ui31.png

i love the Xayah and Rakan skins

purplexbutterfly3 votes

Nobody seems to be getting the point here. If you watch the Ahri trailer from 2017 she is holding 3 gems from fallen Star Guardians. These Star Guardians are Zoe, Xayah and Rakan. If you watch the Xayah and Rakan voice interactions video, you will know that Zoe is the corrupt Star Guardian who corrupts Xayah and Rakan. She is their leader, but they also despise her. These skins are based on the lore, not who would look pretty in an SG skin. I am a Sona main and would have loved for a SG Sona skin for her. But the lore will go onto explain how the 3 fallen SG's fell when the skins release which I am excited for. Xayah and Rakan have a lot of beef with Ahri and MF if you listen to the voice interactions.

Bishamoth1 votes

The thing is, Ahri held Blue Green and Yellow. Xayah is not part of Ahri's team because Xayah is PINK, not blue, not green and not yellow. This doesn't add up at all.

xXFeathersFlyXx1 votes

Lmaooooo Xayah stone was destory By zoe Zoe stone is the blue but Rakan Gave this Stone up for xayah that Why She has green and is so mixed in colors! Xayah rakan Sarah Aka MF ahri And Neeko Were a team... Janna Syndra Were Once On zoe Team! Soraka Bless To the stars For new Guardian Which Brought Lulu Ahri Lux And Jinx

purplexbutterfly2 votes

This!!! You have to forgive me for having a brain fart as I've been very unwell recently but if I remember rightly both Xayah and Rakan have green stones. Can't remember if I saw it in the reveal video or the voice interactions one. Now I come to think of it, I think it was the voice interactions video.

I have read more and more and Neeko managed to fight corruption, which you can see in both recalls for both skins. Allegedly she has been in hiding to come across Xayah and Rakan to uncorrupt them.

Bad choice of champions and huge disapointememt.Taric was made for Star Guardian skin line but hey... Better give Zoe Rakan and Xayah another skin.... Fuck you Riot.

I see a new trend riot stated this year with returning skins like they did with PROJECT. The new PROJECT skins doesn't look like old PROJECT skins (bleached hair, a single main glowing color) and it's happening the same to star guardian. What was wrong with the old formula? I like that they are colorful and clean, If I wanted the opposite I'll just buy a Dark star skin.

THANK GOD

Zoe did NOT get the prestige edition skin for this line. I'm still in the clear to dodge these scummy prestige edition cash grabs.

Sukishoo2 votes

It was known for like EVER that was was going to be Neeko.

Carteeeer1 votes

IMO I really wish riot would work on other skin lines or give urgot his star guardian skin.

I personally don't really like star guardian anyways but it would just be incredible if urgot got that skin :(

Chembaron Yamada5 votes

It would totally ruin the skin line for all its fans and there are ALOT of Star Guardian fans out there. Star Guardian Urgot should never happen and people should finally let the meme die.

Akeminka1 votes

All I want is Star Guardian Xayah to have a blue outfit and Neeko to have a yellow one to actually match the three gems Ahri had in New Horizon video...

Here, I made an edit: https://i.ibb.co/4K9ZSnY/sgxayahblue.jpg
