Pickpocket Twitch, Still shoots arrows?..

FizzicallyNothin··59 votes·7,485 views

I like the whole skin concept, love it actually. Especially its reference to Sly Cooper (My favorite game in the entire world <33333). But in the love of League Gods (Riot) Why does he still shoot arrows out of his revolver? That's the first thing I notice and it broke my heart. Can you PLEASE do something about that? :\

There's no excuse they should have for that. Gangster Twitch fires bullets, so why can't Pickpocket twitch fire bullets?

I swear to christ, they better not pull more "technical issues that we need to wait on a fix in order to use this idea" again.

The excuse is that it's only a 750rp skin if you'd like it to cost 975rp instead the arrows would have been changed

Because apparently it costs the equivalent of 225 RP to change how a champion's basic attack looks.

I would also go out hunting for examples where that would also be wrong, but, to be honest, I don't really feel like it :/

Trundle out of that set was the only one to have particles changed which in his case was an absolute must because a large chunk of terrain is a little more noticeable than a small projectile, just pretend it's a Flachette Round.

Keep in mind the bullet art/sfx/code already exists. They literally just need to change "twitch_projectile_arrow" to "twitch_projectile_bullet".

Yeah most all of the 750 skins just change the costume and maybe a sfx here and there... but the VFX are usually the base effects.

Meanwhile Leprechaum Veigar(520 RP). Oh and Zed has new projectiles, 750 RP skin.

There are a ton of other examples too.

They're hextech. They expand after being fired.

NO! IT'S NOT A DART GUN! How the hell do those big arrows fit in that little chamber? xD.

They probably just didn't notice it. I hope it gets a fix asap :.

I don't want to break your heart, but after such a long time I doubt they would change it.

His joke animation doesnt make any sense either

They could have made all these skins quite a bit better actually.

For starts, Twitch's joke is the exact same as his base, which just looks downright weird (even moreso than his other gun skins). Second, the bullet issue (they already have the particles)

Second:

Trundle could have had a whistle sound added to his ult, and police tape added to his W. (would have been awesome to hear a constable whistle with his ult)

Volibear could have had a whistle sound added to his rolling thunder.

I have no experience with eve's skin, and haven't seen it.

I think as far a trundle's constable skin goes, I really really wanted him to have a a gruff, British accent. It would have made the skin so much better, and it's already a pretty cool skin.

revoice takes 1820 RP saddly since they need to call in a voice actor to record new lines. Particle changes are usually 975 (some exceptions apply like Leprechaun Veigar & some seasonal skins), and animation changes, voice filters and huge ability effect overhauls are 1350. These prices are proportional to the work they need to put into the skins and the resources that they must invest. I don't like it and I wish that Pickpoket Twitch and Gangster Twitch had a proper joke (both play their guns like violins, but gangster twitch has no arrows to use as a bow and it just looks dumb on pickpocket since he shouldn't have arrows & its a giant gun for the love of pete!)

I would have paid for that voice over and everything. I know Riot has an agenda and stuff, but I won't mind skins taking a bit longer and costing a tad more for a small bump in quality.

Also hope they decide to fix the stuff on Twitch's new skin. >.> I make a point of buying all his skins.

Eve skin I can see being 750, they should have made Twitch skin 975 and changed some of the effects.

Well he also holds that revolver as machine gun...

the arrows are like p3n!$3$. They grow erect after fired from the barrel. Also Draven because Draven just for good measure. Draven Draven Draven Draven Draven Draven Draven Draven Draven Draven Draven Draven Draven Draven Draven

The thing that really boggles my mind is if you taunt with Gangster twitch, it plays a violin, like his normal skin but fires bullets. Meanwhile, his pickpocket skin makes a revolver flipping sound yet fires arrows. It makes zero sense.

Nicktoons1 votes

If you look at Twitch's right hand as he's flipping the revolver, you can see that all they did was remove the Arrow he holds in his hand to play the weapon like a violin.

This is actually the problem I had with it, this was the first skin i ever bought and after like five minutes within buying it I immediatly regretted buying it because the arrows came out of the revolver. It just makes the top left portion of my head just burn and it gives me a migraine how the revolver makes the same sound as the crossbow.

Yeah twitch is my favorite champion and to see them literally ignore something so simple as a tiny particle change really bothered me. I mean I still bought the skin anyways but I feel like I shouldn't have...

Bump because I still care about this.
