@ Riot. Regarding Fiora.

The Whamboozler··6 votes·1,145 views

I gave it til release. I played a few games with her. I tried all my skins. And all it showed me what that not only do I hate the art and VU you gave her, but I hate the way she plays now. This is not the champion I bought. I would never have spent real money on those skins. I wouldn't have bought ANY Fiora skins, let alone every Fiora skin in the game if I'd known you were going to do this to her. I want my RP back.

The Fiora rework and the complaints about it got buried under a pile of complaints about the new HUD, the new patch changes to "juggernauts" and the like, but I didn't forget. I made a post saying I would demand my RP back if the release was as bad as it looked, and it is. I'm done with Fiora riot. Thank you. I accept that her old ult was poorly designed. I was fine with it changing. But what you did was take a LOT of other things that weren't broken and ruin them. I no longer enjoy this character. In fact, remembering how much I USED TO enjoy her makes me really angry now. You took her away, buried her under a pile of shit that no one asked for and then washed your hands of it. This is NOT the first time you've taken an underplayed, niche or unpopular champion and gutted them into some sort of hellish monstrosity that that champions fans actively disliked. Her winrate wasn't even good for fuck's sake.

I want my RP back riot. For all of my Fiora skins. I would never have bought them looking like they do. I don't like playing her. I don't like looking at her. I bought a product and you CHANGED that product against the will of a lot of Fiora players for no real reason. If I buy any other kind of art... and the artist decides that he dislikes his old style... he does NOT get to come into my home and re-draw the poster I have on my wall! You didn't even include a "traditional" skin for her like you did for several other champs. This just proves to me how little you really give a crap about the players of these niche champions. You ruined Cassiopeia for me. You ruined Skarner for me twice. I'm done. Give me my RP back for the three Fiora skins I own. I would never have bought skins for a champ I dislike playing so much... especially ones I find so aesthetically unappealing. I want a refund riot. Or an abandon to her VU, but I know THAT isn't gonna happen... so just give me my RP back.

I actually love the new Fiora. I actually play her as a support tank. Not what she was suppose to be, but with her new kit, she is more than a full aggro fencer.

Good for you. I still want a refund. I'd never have paid for those skins looking the way they do.

What about all of the people who didn't like the Trundle relaunch, should they also get refunded for all of the skins they bought? And what about Sion, Gangplank, Sivir, Sej, Cass, Trist? And what about Poppy? Should I complain and ask for money if the Poppy update is something I don't like?

You forgot Karma. Sun Godess Karma looks like shit now...

The Whamboozler1 votes

Karma ALSO has a classic skin for people who disliked the direction of her rework... apparently Fiora didn't deserve that privilage. But HELL YES if you dislike the Sun Goddess skin after her VU you should demand a refund for it! It's not what you bought! It's not something dumb like refunding a champ who was OP in the meta you bought them because they got nerfed. It's wanting money back that you spent on ART because the it's no longer the art that you paid for.

PLEASE ask for a refund on Sun Goddess! If enough people did things like this, they might be less flippant about these unpopular VU's.

A: Trundle and Sej got a classic skin. B: Yes, I hate the Cass rework as well and I'd say people who played her pre-change would be plenty justified in asking for a refund. C: Not many people dislike the Sion and Sivir relaunches... I mean, those old models were hideous. But if you DO, then sure. You should get a refund. I mean... I'm asking for a refund for the SKINS, not the champ, but w/e. D: I like Poppy. I fear deeply for Poppy. Yes, if they turn her into something awful you will probably get another of these threads.

In fact, I fully support EVERY player being able to refund skins if those skins are changed due to a VU. You paid for that skin because of how it looked. If it no longer LOOKS that way, you should be able to send it back. I'm not saying you should get refunds if your champ stops being OP (not that many people thought Fiora was OP). I'm not asking for a refund for Fiora the champ. But I bought all three of her skins with RP. That's about 15 bucks spent on art, basically. I no longer like the art. Not because my tastes changed, but because the "artists" came in and said "we like her better this way now". I don't. I wouldn't have paid for that.

If I buy music, the artists don't get to come in and change it if they decide they prefer the trombone over the guitar these days. That isn't the same song and it's not the one I paid for. Fiora ISN'T the same champion and those skins aren't the ones I paid for. I don't want those skins anymore. I'd have never bought those skins if you had showed me the current models for them. Why do people seem to think that I'm being unfair here? You can't change a product you sold after it's been paid for and expect the people you sold it to to not have issue if they dislike the new version of the product.

Maybe Riot should just stop with VU and Reworks. Because no matter what champion gets done there is gonna be someone who's gonna cry over it. But then people will cry when a champion doesn't get a VU or Rework. Riot gets screwed either way

This isn't about her mechanics. It's not about her kit. It's not even about her base skin and splash art (although I DO think it's awful compared to her old one). It's about skins. Something you buy for NO OTHER REASON than you like how they look. I want to refund my skins because riot changed them into something that I no longer like looking at. I'm not asking for nerfs, buffs, a kit change... anything. I just want my RP back for an entirely cosmetic change that they made to her skins. I own all three of Fiora's skins because I liked how they look. I would never have bought them looking like they do now.

Give her two charges on her lunge and I think she'll be fine tbh. Still disagree with how her ult works but w/e

The Whamboozler1 votes

I don't care about her mechanics. I mean, I do... but that's not what this is about. This is that I dislike how her skins look with the new model. Since there is NO REASON to own skins other than that you enjoy how they look, I no longer want these skins. Since riot changed what I bought, it only seems fair for them to refund me.... or ANYONE else who dislikes a VU updated skin... the RP they spent so I can spend it on other skins that I think look GOOD.

Why am I the only one who thinks this is reasonable?

New fiora is pretty garbage and jungle sustain is awful. I have no idea why riot would do this.

The Whamboozler1 votes

The issue in my case is not about her kit. I dislike her new kit a lot... but that is not what the refund is about. It is about the 15 dollars worth of digital art that I purchased to wear in game. Her skins. They are no longer what I paid for. I would not have paid for them in the state they are in now. I want my RP back for them. How does NO ONE get this? It's not about her freakin' abilities.
