STAR GUARDIAN ZOE, XAYAH, RAKAN, NEEKO & Prestige Neeko
So, what's your favorite?
So, what's your favorite?
None, all are shit. Specially Neeko
None. Except Neeko,rest didnt deserve a skin SPECIALLY NOT RAKAN AND XAYAH.
Neeko by far... And naturally, that's the one they give Prestige. The other three look terrible. Zoe was a super letdown. They could've gone so many other ways with that skin. Xayah and Rakan's skins are just repeats of their Cosmic skins. Other people would've been better choices -- like Taliyah (besides, she hasn't technically gotten a skin since release (team skin doesn't count)), Nami, etc.
Now I'm not going to lie, upon first look at this group I was disappointed by the dark-star vibes - but as I've looked closer I'm rather fond of Xayah and Rakans. Rakan has an okay-ish look to him, not quite classic star guardian since he's dark, but the recall is what gets me. He gives up his power / everything, he lets his star guardian thing go..... and if you look to Xayah's recall, you see why. He gives it up to save her. He . Uses. It. To . Save. Xayah. And that shit makes me weak. That is A++ . I really wish they kept to making Rakan's skins more vibrant (Sweetheart was incredibly washed out) to go with his nature, but alas I will accept this. The animations are neat. I wish the animations went more with him being a starguardian before corruption to match that detailing though.
Also its a nice touch that it is Syndra's little ball that comes and slaps him to corrupt him. Keeping in some of the lore is always good.
Xayah - I understand it being dark and turning into the pastel-princess we know Starguardians to be is also a nice touch, which reflects why her animations are also dark (COUGH MAKE RAKANS NOT DARK). And I also get that they can't overuse the thematic without adding something new to keep it from getting monotonous so this was a pretty good route to take (especially if that IS the lore above I mentioned), but, Rakan should still be bright until he's corrupt and thats a rock I'll die on
Zoe - I don't have any nice opinions on this and Zoe isn't my favourite champ so I'll abstain from saying anything further
Neeko - Sweet summer baby this is what a star guardian skin is. I like her base, I like mr. froggo. ITs cute, its lively, it matches Neekos character and makes her fit fairly well with the thematic. Not entirely sure what I think of the Prestige skin, but alas I am not fond of yellow so thats a personal preference.
I hope the SG Rakan and Xayah have voice lines to reflect the lore I'm anticipating.. cuz.. I'm weak.
I dislike all of these champions except for rakan unfortunatly. Xayah feels like the illaoi of botlane, zoe feels like the illaoi of midlane, i dont have too strong a feeling about neeko but she feels extremely unfun to play against.
I mean I guess its ok that xayah and rakan get a skin, but it feels kinda wierd to be giving neeko and zoe a skin, and only 4 skins really? I feel like quinn has such a good setup for an sg skin.
None cuz I liked star guardians to be cute not edgy. I mean I hate dar stars skinline
