So are Riot employees all going to be sporting the same Icon in this? Seems like a huge lose of identity. IronStylus not being a parrot anymore would actively make me sad. I tend to remember the pictures better than I do the name, so it will make things much more difficult to keep track of.
Fear not. Rioter custom avatars are coming. How soon we're not sure yet, but Iron Stylus shall have his parrot.
Well, ok not his original parrot, I ate that one (tastes like chicken), but I promised him I'd get him a new parrot that looks exactly like his old one.
Would be nice indeed but it's not something I would view as "high priority".
I'd much prefer see new features be added first.
I still think there should be exclusive icons for members of the community whom Riot deems worthy of them. Be it for creating bro fist worthy LoL related art, LoL related stories, etc.etc.. Something that the more creative side of the community would be have to show that what they do is appreciated. Whether the icons are available in game, or on the forums only is something Riot decides on, but it would still be nice to be able to identify those community members that do provide awesome content by looking at their icon..
And possibly making Honor icons visible on the forums also..
