#Do not forget previous sci-fi skins with patch 5.17!

The 5.17 sci-fi theme. Currently there's no update on previous sci-fi themed skins (and I can think of reasons why). Still, you cannot forget about Mecha and Battlecast skins!

Mecha Aatrox Champion skins are receiving more content recently. Mecha Aatrox (and maybe Malphite & Kha'Zix) cannot compete!

  • Add new set of words and sentences for Mecha Aatrox.
  • Update voice processing to a Mecha theme. (currently is same as Project skins?)
  • Add new animations to everything. e.g. The wings ought to be changed.
  • Blade-swinging is kept fluent if not extra robotic.
  • Add Blood Well revive animation; Mecha wings act as the shield.
  • Add special lighting effect like Skarner's skin?
  • Update the Blue colors. It spoils him somehow.
  • Remove Massacre [R] all-Red colors. Replace with incremental red-glowing between cavities. His 'core' should also exhaust a glow).

Mecha Skins Let's not forget about their likeness to the Project skins.

These minions pop up when using PROJECT skins in-game - using two PROJECT skins will spawn Caster & Melee minions and using three PROJECT skins will spawn Cannon & Super minions. As far as we know, these are only planned for 5.17

Riot. You must include Mecha and Battlecast into this list!!!

  1. Will all sci-fi skins be on sale?
  • Mecha skins?
  • Project skins?
  • Battlecast skins?
  • Bundled sci-fi skins?
  • Individual sci-fi skins?

Hiya Shénzhì!

While PROJECT:, Mecha and Battlecast reference technology/robots, we consider them three different thematics. For that reason, we're not allowing Battlecast or Mecha skins to trigger the PROJECT: minions.

Champion skins are receiving more content recently.

It depends on the thematic, and what we feel is needed to really fulfill it.

In Mecha Aatrox's case, we felt that he needed a lot - sounds particles, voice processing, etc. We don't have plans to change his VO, or make any additional updates at this time. New VO is generally reserved for Legendary/Ultimate tier skins.

As for skin sales, we have a list of the skins available on sale in September. Here's August, since we still have a few days left in the month. Any additional skin sales aren't announced in advance, which would mean any news on PROJECT: skins/bundles, etc. wouldn't be announced until the release of the skins.

Are the PROJECT skins in the same universe as the Battlecast and Mecha skins? Are they all part of some apocalyptic future or something?

-Battlecast is a world where Viktor has begun his glorious revolution and recruited an army (The Matrix) -Mecha are robots/jaegers that fight an as-of-yet unknown enemy (maybe the battlecasts or something more deadly?) (Japanese giant robots/Pacific Rim) -PROJECT involves select people being chosen and taken under PROJECT where they are augumented and enhanced with cybernetics for an unkown purpose (Metal Gear)
