Unlock the Elementalist border while you can

Riot··4 votes·29,064 views

The time to pick up the Elemental Origin border and Elementalist Icon is almost up. From now until December 13, 2016 at 23:59 PT, buying Elementalist Lux or her Master Elementalist Edition unlocks the Elementalist Icon and Elemental Origin border. After that, the border will no longer be available (unless you draw it directly onto your screen, but we don’t recommend that).

Check it out below.

No offense, but you can barely see the border.

Lol it's clearly there and I have no idea how you think it's barely visible..

The border fits the skin splash so well, that it's actually hard to notice. It's beautiful regardless, but from a designers perspective the lack of contrast makes it hard for everyone to notice and enjoy how awesome the border is.

It fits her skin theme because you can barely see the particles as well [slayer-jinx-wink]

Probably the most annoying thing about this skin is that nearly every ability of hers are clear. This is in fact one of the only skins I've seen riot make that gives a clear advantage over not having it.

That's probably for the best. They just wanted to show people who originally got the skin with a slight extra touch to the splash without detracting from the actual art itself.

Feels kind of like a bunch of 750 skins strapped together, to be perfectly honest.

More like a bunch of 1820s... its 10 new sets of skins, particle effects, and voice lines.

REALLY wish it was 16 though... they messed up an opportunity with that.

EDIT: I would have paid another 1000 rp for it, easily.

The boarder is really beautiful but I do have to agree with people in the comments that it is a little hard to notice.

Some people are complaining about the border because its not very noticeable and doesn't contrast with the background. However I actually really love the border blending into the splash art because its more cohesive and doesn't look like a poster stamp. Great job riot!

I love the new skin Lux

"I can barely see the border" like wtf. Not all borders need to be a strong contrast. Plus, a border shouldn't be the only thing you see. This border is perfect because it complements and enhances the splash art, not overtake it.

Will the border just show up around me? I haven't been looking for it on the loading screen

Knight Sky2 votes

no because it cant pop out your computer screen and pop up around you. however if you're talking about when you que up as lux in the loading screen then yes it does lol

midnight oil244 votes

Alright, I worded that poorly. So as long as I bought the skin I don't have to do anything special? It'll just be there?

CithriaC4 votes

Yes, it will be around you elem. lux skin loading screen cut forever. No games needed to be played.

Knight Sky1 votes

Yup itll be there

midnight oil241 votes

Is this given to people that already purchased the skin/bundle?

XayahTheRebel3 votes

Yeah if you go to the original page for the announcement of the skin it says "PURCHASING ELEMENTALIST LUX INDIVIDUALLY OR IN THE MASTER ELEMENTALIST EDITION BEFORE DECEMBER 13, 2016 AT 23:59 PT GRANTS THE ELEMENTALIST ICON AND THE ELEMENTAL ORIGIN BORDER."

I bought the skin right when it came out so will I still get the border?

Riot when will you implement custom games versus bots? I'm dying for some cs and skillshot practice on these new champs, but the only time I can play them is when I get my role. What the HECK?? It's been three weeks without it!

Nnnes2 votes

You can still play custom games vs. bots if you launch the legacy client (from the login page)

Romtheguy1 votes

Let me point you towards this post made only 6 days ago: http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/news/game-updates/features/client-open-beta-update-1

Enough said. For now, you can take Nnnes's idea and go to the legacy client for ALL of your bot needs.[slayer-jinx-wink]

The border will probably be more noticeable when we see the skin without it... I can clearly see it though.

Donut Kakyoin2 votes

But... If you bought the skin before that date. will you still get it? :( if not; its unfair. (;;=-=)

Skaiserus1 votes

Well, you will. It says 'before', so you will get it.
