Riot, I believe that Zyra needs a Texture upgrade on her Wild Fire Skin

This is her Current model now, I've circled the areas in white on the problem of her in game model, as you can see the color is not exactly how it should be compared to her Splash art.

look at her chest and helm, they're black colored but her actual model is orange/red, it looks TOO colorful and idk if anyone realizes this too.

this is a cosplayer, as you can see, her top and helm is black and not orange/red, she followed the splash art instead of the in game model.

why is it that you made Zyra too colorful in her upper area compared to the lower area? She's supposed to have a black top and black helm mixed with lavaish line of fire.

In my personal estimation Zyra needs a texture or even an MTU for all her models, especially her classic. Not that she's anything close to someone like Tristana, Zilean, or Taric. But it'd be nice to see her updated.

This is the only thing keeping me from buying Wild Fire Zyra. I love that molten rock armour. Can't stand the pasty ketchup.

The only thing i want Riot to change from her is her godly huge thigh gap:/

I logged in to say this.

This needs to happen! Zyra (and Syndra) all have their colors messed up and blended and it looks nothing like the splash art. Looking at zyra's splash arts, I see a ferocious woman using the power of nature to her disposal. But in game, she just looks like a woman with a bunch of vines strapped around her. It doesn't look as ferocious or menacing as she's supposed to be.

Also her abilities cause lag, especially her E on her Wildfire skin.

And since we brought this up, I think it would be in the best interest to give her a sort of "Maokai" sort of thing, giving her new ability visuals (or at least making them look better such as her Q, Plants and her Ultimate that looks like noodles) and a new TU.

I was surprised when she wasn't on the list to get a new splash art (such as Diana, Syndra, Nami, and Leona, but Renter managed to get one) and more shocked when she didn't get a TU (Syndra needs one as well.)

Overall, I love her as the champion, but with her ugliness (compared to what's supposed to be, a devastating plant trying to become human to have a new way at life, but is still dangerous in her own right) and her rig messing up and bugging, and the plants being unsightly creatures, I think it would be best to give her a "Maokai" sort of TU.

That is all.

Sincerest regards, Zyra

She need new VFX (for this skin only) for her abilities. All her abilities cause mass lag and FPS Drop, and im not the only one to get those. So if Riot could make her VFX "normal" like her other skin, a lot of players could buy this skin.

YES PLEASE. Her face needs a serious update imo. Wonder if she will get some nice TUs soon? That'd be nice ^^ Also I noticed something since I play zyra a ton, in her original art, she has 4 fingers on each hand, and in all of her others she has 5! Just something interesting :p

I heard her rigging is terrible, which makes skins harder to make for her.
