A worried Singed player (SSW Skin)

Arkantasa··3 votes·10,730 views

TLDR: On rito's announcement page Singed has a blue poison trail, while on the PBE he has a normal green one.

Is this temporary? will he have the blue poison trail again?

*Will be getting him if the poison trail is blue. 100% won't be buying him if it's the normal green.

Yo!

That preview video was shot with color blind mode enabled, that's why his trail appears to be blue. His trails will be staying green, sorry for the confusion. :<

Change it to blue, it's incredibly fast & easy to do & it's 100000x more awesome.

I know you have layers of particles, but it's really not hard to recolor the layers.

Idc about price models & shish, Marauder Ashe was a huge upset with no recolored particles... please do this one a little justice & just throw them in as a kind bonus to players.

We won't be changing the particles for SSW Singed, unfortunately.

This was an error on our part, but as you've seen, using colorblind mode will still make the appearance of having blue particles. As Galetta said, we're sorry for the confusion this may have caused.

I see how it is. The skin team changes Talon's particles for SSW, but not Singed's. We know who their favorite champion really is.

Of course you won't.

Because recoloring a small handful of particle layers is so "intensive" & because "historically this or that" or "pricing tier."

Why not?

I mean, if the blue colored particle already exists you have absolutely no reason to not implement it. You can't use the 750rp excuse here either because Talon is getting particles.

If Talon can get new particles then so can Singed. There's really no reason not to change it.

so i feel that this may be considered false advertising i bought the skin for the blue trail now im told i must be colorblind to see it i mean its a SSW skin and there colors are blue and white what is the point a green trail it looks so bad and now i cant refund it i feel you should do what a lot of players and make the trail blue its not that hard and that is what was advertised that made people want the skin you cant simply advertise something without letting people know that it was shot in different circumstances that they are expecting. you also point out it is your error so fix it

It's not that you need to be colorblind to see the blue particles, your client will need to be set to colorblind mode for the particles to be blue.

I did point out this was an error on our part, however, it was an error in respect to video capture, not the skin development itself.

We don't have plans to change the particles - they'll be remaining green when in normal view and blue when in colorblind mode.

So, just a quick question. I don't play Singed, and love the Talon skin. But if the team has seen the number of people who just wanted the particle to be blue, to fit the theme of the skins, why won't you consider changing them? Blue in Normal and Colourblind, Doesn't seem like too difficult a change, but then again i'm not experienced in the field at all. Merely a thought/question from the mind of a Web Dev/Designer.

i cri.

Thank you for the reply! Would be nice if you could just recolour it though... It matches the SSW theme so well and everything.

He's meant to only have the base particles, what was seen in the images is the Colorblind mode.

Looper: Singed, 750 RP New character model.

Dandy: Rengar, 750 RP New character model.

Pawn: Talon, 750 RP New character model. New (W) and (R) particles.

Imp: Twitch, 975 RP New character model. New recall animation. He rolls in the grass! :3

Mata: Thresh, 975 RP New character model. All particles color shifted to blue. New recall animation.

Why did they tease him with the blue poison particles then? Talon has new W and R too and he's the same price so I thought that maybe....

Sukishoo1 votes

Cause whoever took the picture had colorblind mode on, and that's why it looked like that. Singed & Rengar skins didn't get anything special for them according to their post.

Arkantasa2 votes

That's disappointing. honestly, truly, outrageously disappointing.

Soon as this skin comes out everyones going to be playing Singed... I like being one of the handful of people that main him unconditionally item 3151

could changing singed's smoke color to blue upset readability or gameplay in any way? I too think blue would look nicer.

Arkantasa1 votes

exactly!

GaleWinUnleashed1 votes

It doesn't upset gameplay. In fact, it's blue if you play in Colorblind Mode, which is supposed to enhance clarity for those that may have vision problems.

Arkantasa1 votes

I honestly don't understand the down votes on some of the comments. People have a valid point and you down vote it? how about arguing against it. There's literally no reason for riot not to change it to blue. If Talon got an update, why can't singed? It's literally a recolour, there aren't even any new particles! It should be way easier to do than what they did with Talon.
