Arcade Sona auras effects missing?

I bought Arcade Sona on sale on Tuesday and I immediately noticed it was visually bugged. I was wondering why in the skin spotlight the aura range indicators (the circle) have their proper 'arcade' effects (the tiny pixel rectangles that you can see in the autoattacks too) while in the live version no effect is displayed in the aura (the big blue-green-purple circle) around Sona. I'm sure it's a bug. You feel like playing Classic Sona with another model... Which shouldn't be, I guess?

However, if I play with other people, they can see the proper effects. But it's not a problem of my computer because I logged in from a friend's pc, and the problem persists. I play on EUW but I think the problem is general.

Without the pixel rectangles it really feels like something's missing.

I attached three screenshots to display her Q, her W and her E. The ult is fine.

I was wondering if anybody else was experiencing the problem, and if yes, please feel free to post in this thread I created in the bug section, for Sona <3 http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/bug-report/JWbrGEVE-client-arcade-sona-bugged

You're totally right, she is missing the pixels! Thanks for the report! We'll get her fixed up!

I have seen other posts about this so I don't think you're alone. I just picked her up yesterday, so I'll let you know if I experience this or not. - haven't played with her yet.

It's a bug.

The Arcade effect shows on the Q aura but it seems a lot more faint than usual. The aura circle, W and E use classic Sona effects.

I also wish they could add 8 bit sound effects for aura tagging instead of using default sounds.

Thanksthanksthanksthanks! :) I knew that posting in the wrong section would have worked better than in the bug section!

We do check the bug thread frequently, so that's the best place to report something like this! You got lucky this time! :P I also am a huge fan of Arcade Sona! Just goes to show that I've been neglecting her in game for Nami. :c

I did post over there too though, I'm not entirely guilty. :> Do you think the bug will be fixed on every platform? I'm a EUW player but I came to post here because we hardly see red posts on our bug section.
