Neo Pax Sivir

Is this really a finished piece? You plan to give this skin out at Pax this year. PAX Sivir, Jax and TF have been some of the most sought after skins in LoL due to their rarity. I've always found PAX Sivir the best of the bundle, but this skin remake feels lazy. The work here covers less depth than a 520RP skin available, yet you plan on selling it for 10 Gemstones to any who don't go to the event??? Where do I start on discrepancies of this skin...

  • The AA animation doesn't look at all like the PAX symbol, instead a blur only passable to have 4 prongs when paused. It looks far closer to Warden Sivir's boomerang than the PAX symbol.
  • Q boomerang is black colour, based off the original skin (rather than the blue of the Neo-skins base colour).
  • W Autos look how the normal AA should be. Again they're black instead of blue (something that should be rectified), but with the speed of these projectiles it's harder to notice/less important to change. On all other skins there's no distinguishing between the W on/off before the first bounce other than sound. Why isn't this the case here?
  • E Shield is the same for practicality/clarity issues, I have no problems or questions with this. As a premium skin I'd have hoped for a different particle effect when breaking, or something else of the likes such that clarity is not changed but satisfaction is given to the owners.
  • R trail is the same as all other skins. It seems to be a marginally longer blue trail than the Victorious or SKT Sivir skns, but barely so. There's no choice for ranging neon-colours, nor any PAX label under her feet as she ults.

In truth this is the weakest Sivir skin I've seen to date. Sivir was my first main and I've always looked at the original skin with awe. PAX Sivir is more of an embarrassment than it is satisfying to look at. I wish I could tell myself this skin would be worth the price. As it currently stands this skin is not justifiable, even with the gemstones sat around waiting for a skin of value. I sincerely hope this isn't the final state of her, that some more work is going on to improve/modify it into a real skin. There are Chromas with more investment than this.

They literally took the Pax skin, and gave it colors.

I don't know what more you want.
