@Riot KateyKhaos- Ace of Spades Ezreal hair color

DwarvenGiant·5/10/2015, 6:09:52 PM·3 votes·5,958 views

So with the upcoming cards-themed skins (which I really like), there's Ace of Spades Ezreal, and he went to the barber shop so many times, that his hair color in the splash doesn't really match the model anymore. :P Will this be fixed before released? Maybe even in a later patch? Are you planning to fix this at all? I mean, I don't even mind if you'll change his hair back to brown (I liked all versions, basically), I just really want the splash's hair color to match the model's. And before you say it's lighting... Well, it's just too dark to be the lighting (in the splash of course). :P

Thanks for taking time to read my post. :)

I'm not a fan of the super saiyin hair, honestly, and the striped shoulders were good detail.

Dear KateyKhaos and Giant,

I too share concerns over the current hair color of the in-game model vs. the splash-art. It is my personal opinion that the "earlier version" model's hair color looks the closet ( it looks like the same hair color hidden in shadow ) and I find that shade of brown to be a nice change from all the blonde/white-haired Ezreal skins we are used to seeing. More important to me though than this particular skin is the fact that Giant's point seems to be applicable to multiple champions released recently; one example being Sweetheart Annie who has an in-game model with hair so white I can't look at it while her splash art has her hair as light blonde. I'm sure this wasn't nearly as frequent as it used to be ( I'm aware of Woad Ashe's splash art having a dagger the game model lacks ) and can't think of many older examples that have such obvious differences but I'm hoping the teams who are responsible for the in-game and splash art begin coordinating more.

Thanks for taking the time to read my post, fowus2happy.

Hey DwarvenGiant!

We don't have plans to make any more adjustments to Ace of Spades Ezreal's hair.

Please keep in mind that the in game model will differ slightly from the splash art. In both instances, Ezreal does have blonde hair, and lighting is a factor in the splash art, as compared to the lighting in game.

The hair colour matches the splash art, it's just the shadow...

Just look at his shoulder pads, it's the same colour of the hair.

In my opinion, the blonde hair sticks out more and would be a lot better addition to the skin. This is because it goes with the trim of the clothes and it is his natural blonde hair. Cuz isn't Ezreal a blonde?

I preferred the first colour palette, where it was dark blue/blackish and darker overall.

With the changes, I'm no longer interested in purchasing it.
