subconsciously do cute skins (pug maw) have less human aggro as opposed to badazz skins like omega squad teemo or is it a just a skin and nothing more that effects judgment on enemy and/or ally behavior.

teemo would get global taunt regardless of what skin he uses

I mean I don't show any preference to skins beyond telling the player when the game first starts that they have a cool one or something like that. Though I do admit... if it's a teemo, I will totally flash into the entire enemy team 1v5 to kill that rat. It's this compulsion. Must. Kill. The. Teemo.

Seems like the cute skins draw more aggro.

It's an interesting question. I would guess probably. In games that feature a red team and blue team (i.e. Halo), with all other things being equal, the red team wins slightly more often.

By the same logic, a less aggressively-minded skin design would lead to less aggressive play. Of course, the magnitude of the impact is probably tiny.

I am not conscious of the skins used by players in team fights. I am merely aware of the champions and what each one can and cannot do for or to me.

I'm personally a fan of cute skins, but I don't think I have a specific preference to them with regard to other players.

That being said, I occasionally try my best to be OBNOXIOUSLY ADORABLE to keep my team happy and playing well. [sg-kiko]

Maybe it's twofold?

Depends on the person, graphic settings, and of course how fed they are.

Probably for tilted players, if any. Usually it's your role/damage/score that determine if you're focused or not.

Some people might question you for why you would have a teemo skin

I feel like Ahri naturally lores people into chasing after her and actually end up dieing.

So champ like Ahri is probably focused so much more than most other champ i think.
