@IronStylus, Atlantean Syndra's Texture

So to start off, I realize PBE is beta and subject to change. Historically, when skins are shipped to PBE, if there are major issues or flaws with the skin, there is not enough time to pull them to make adjustments. Looking at the texture on this skin it looks incredibly unfinished. It seems way too dark, and the particles already seem to be suffering a little bit from being too difficult to notice. (I'm thinking how some people have issues with Steel Legion Lux's Lucent Singularity) Additionally, the Orbs left by her Q in the river could be incredibly difficult to differentiate on a quick glance.

So there is some feedback. Here is a question. Is it possible to make these adjustments before the skin actually ships? I remember recently in a thread about the recent Lunar Revel Diana skin we were able to give you feedback on some issues with the skin, but not a lot came of that feedback.

I realize you were working with a tighter deadline considering the skin was coming out with the other Lunar Revel skins and couldn't be delayed, but I hope that this skin gets delayed until it can be polished enough to be released. As it stands now, this is VERY unfinished to the casual observer such as myself.

Thoughts?

My feedback is that the effects are pretty but Syndra herself looks too dark and dull, there's little detail and she just looks boring and monotone. I'd like to see something closer to Atlantean Fizz. I get Syndra is 'evil' but that doesn't mean she always has to look that way in every skin especially when 'evil' means 'mostly black/dark'.

Another negative is that atm the sound effects are VERY underwhelming. That usual satisfying boom from dropping a Q? Now it's just a barely audible splash. Most of her sound effects are like this, lacking the punch of her base skin.

For a suggestion have you guys thought about changing Syndra's voice filter to be more watery or aquatic if you know what I mean. Fizz is getting some of that voice filter treatment so why not Syndra? :)

Also once again I need to say there needs to be somewhere for people not on the PBE to give feedback/ask questions/etc. I can't even get PBE access given my main is on OCE. So frustrating all these questions that will go unanswered.

IronStylus doesn't make skins. He's on the relaunch team
