Bump "Cards" Line to 975 Tier, Worth the Delay

At least Ezreal & Syndra must become 975.

Both need particle work, I think Ezreal also needs further improvement imo.

I can't speak much for Morde & Shaco as they look visually OK by me, but please voice your opinions & if you feel they should become 975 as well!

I could see Morde upped for the sake of it (been forever since he got a skin, relegating it to 750 even despite the fact he needs a complete VU is sucky) & I could envision pretty great updated particles for him.

And I agree that TF's Card Skin deserves placement in the new splash, I know it's extra work but it would be ridiculous not to put him in there... he doesn't have to be insanely prominent, but the artist creating the splash needs to honor his existence in the line imo.

I'm in no hurry for yet another Ez Skin (seriously, Riot...?) or rush for another Syndra skin, though I know Morde players have waited a VERY LONG TIME & deserve better I think (even if it meant waiting another month or two, what's a month or two at this point anyway...).

I REALLY wish Riot would give in on this. Its such a great concept for a line of skins....But Syndra and Ez in particular are just so bland. I really, really want to see some nice effects on the new Syndra. Please Riot, I will pay anything. :(

I think adding anything to the ezreal skin isn't worth the effort, he's gotten a lot of skins recently. Syndra only has skins at 975 I think, so a cheaper option isn't necessarily a bad thing.

I agree entirely that twisted fate should have his skin in that splash... The line seems to be based off of him. Not to mention that his skin actually works with his theme while these skins really don't go with their themes as well (all take a bit of a stretch).

I'd rather see these be pumped out and move on to some champions that haven't had a skin in a long time - there are a good number of Champions without any great looking or theme-fitting skin options that could be focused on instead of spending more time on yet another ezreal skin. Feel bad for morde mains though as he hasn't seen love in a long time and having a cheapie come out after all that time seems lackluster.

I like that they're making cheaper skins but the problem will always boil down to people doing something like OMG RITO Y SKINS SO EXPENSIVE: -queue argument about how all skins have to be 975 and never 750. If they keep it at 750 people will still make threads with the obvious: Y NO DETAIL MDAGAKDOG. Sure must suck knowing that you can't please everybody
