OH BOY

I believe the skins are for Orianna (not sure) and Kha'Zix Which would mean that the leak is totally legit.

Yes on Kha, no on Sol. Sol was specifically mentioned as not getting a Dark Star skin for the same reason Thresh won't get a Reaper skin and Malzahar won't get a Void skin - a theme too similar to their base skins.

How would Dark Star A.Sol be too close to his base skin? Dark Star is pretty much his antithesis...

Dark Star Game Mode seems fun. ~~Incoming Tahm Kench/Anivia Wall/allykilling troll players~~

From the video it might just be Thresh

The skin textures on Ori look really off in the teaser. Hopefully it's an early iteration.

Otherwise I'm super hype.

LoL as a game is not that pretty if you start zooming in that far, because we usually view the game quite zoomed out, so the Model's are quite low poly, since we're not likely to notice anyway

Texture's tend to be higher quality regardless. This Orianna one just comes across as messy to me.

Riot's textures aren't consistently low poly, in fact they're often quite detailed.

Yeah true, the textures are usually pretty nice, I was just pointing out that the low poly model might make this look a bit worse because of how zoomed in it is :P

Maybe because it's a close view. If you pay attention, many textures don't have a good definition (especially champions, skins and monsters), we don't notice it because we see the game from a high POV

I'm aware of the Point of View aspect of the game. Many of the textures in the game do actually have pretty nice definition. Star Guardian Lux is a nice example of that. Taliyah is another. Zoom in close or even look at their texture sheets and they still look nice/

The Ori one just looks muddy.
