Sion Warmonger

I'm just so happy with this rework and wanted to congrats every one in the relaunch team who worked in Sion's rework.

In general, I really like how he looks now and I LOVE his new skills, specially his R.

If I have something bad to say is that with the new Sion look, his Warmonger skin has recieve too bright colors. I personally bought this one because it was the darker skin but now if fullfilled of bright colors as purple skin (much more warm than pale blue used in base skin) and his black armor is no longer... well... black.

So, I want to propose, and I hope to be read by some Red, to give Warmonger Sion back to his old dark look that made me buy that skin. I REALLY bought that skin just because it looked much more sinister than normal :(

If it's not possible to make that skin darker, it's possible to ask Riot to give back my RP of that skin I bought a year ago? :(

Edit: I have to say that all my opinion is based just in this picture, so maybe they can still fix that error. (Warmonger armour should at least have the color of basic Sion armor)

The two people who actually bought the Warmonger skin will be happy if the proposed changes go through. I'd personally prefer to have his Traditional skin over this, but I'll bump for justice.

We currently have a 3D artist working on moving the texture more towards the original. We'll be looking at that today in a review and we'll see where it's at.

He looks like a dorky medeval Thanos.

I also bought the skin because of the dark look. Really hope they modify its colors to a more obscure palette to make him look like... well a warmonger, rather than a WoW warrior.

rito pls.

I also bought this warmonger skin and am hoping it isn't as flamboyant as it looks above...

Make the Warmonger darker!

He needs a much more subdued color for his skin and his armour needs to be a darker/grittier color palette to really complete that Warmonger theme from his old look. That and his purple skin is way, way too bright. Town that way the heck down and maybe even change it to more of a red skin color instead of purple. Also, might I suggest that the legs become fully covered as in he might need pants or more armour to break up that lower half of his new visual.

The the standard skin is awesome, but the rest...meh. I'd be totally fine with if they took some freedoms on rewprking these very old skins. I was hoping that the barbarian skin would look better after all the Freljord stuff we had.

He looks like he's cosplaying or something... I'd also feel like they ruined the skin for me.

I bought it when it was on sale cause I knew it'd look sick. Turns out its a big mistake if this one is current. Not dark enough and too colorful. Default looks amazing though.

I was extremely displease with this take on warmonger Sion. He looks just as fruity as the others, when he should look like he is ready to murder entire armies by himself while inspiring others to attemt the same. Should look much more sinister much more Noxus, than this little pastel candy soldier. It makes me very displeased with my purchase.

My personal thoughs about this skins are that Warmonger Sion is like a full armored version of sion, at least in his pre-rework version, untill I see what they are doing to redone it all I have to say is that Warmonger should be exactly that, a heavy armored version of base skin.

I have to say I'm pretty hype... I want to see the modified version :D

Yeah. Totally agreed. I hate the new skin, i wish i never bought it now that it changed! Used to like it but thats before the rework, now i feel like i bought something that i didnt want just because he turned out to be purple and much uglier than he used to be. Really liked the first one but now its totally bad. Now i wouldve got the hextech because i think its the only one that looks good. Very irritated by his fancy colours and that weird orange glow is nasty looking, its like coming back to 64bit consoles.
