Quoting Pyre:

Did you know the skins share nothing with a Blood moon other than the stupied name and everyones 'Its a blood moon make it red'' Statement is false. They are actually based off Kabuki witch is a traditional form of Japanese theater.

Oh and the masks can come in other colors .... including PINK. So riot can you please revert it back to pink.

Quoting Vicciv:

This. And we already have so many red skins.. I think the majority of us players would have loved to have this fresh pink and blue-ish colour scheme. I can't believe how a simple change could make such a difference. Just because it's called "Blood Moon" does it mean it has to be red? We can't think that simple, can we? Please revert this change like it never happened.

Considering that skins with the same name share a theme, I'm glad they changed it. Akali, Shen, Kalista, Thresh all blood moon skins are red. Like blood. lmao and then Elise was pink? hell no, it didn't vibe visually at all. Now there's some cohesiveness. If you want pink, I suggest Order of the Lotus Karma. Fantastic skin, very pink. I'm especially pumped about this because the group I usually play with, we have a great thresh, a good shen, a good elise, and a good kalista, as well as me, Akali. So I'm excited to go full skins team, and VERY glad that Elise now actually matches up with the other 4. My opinion, but to each their own. I just feel like if a skin is part of a "set" (ie battlecast, mecha, arcade, blood moon, Hopefully PROJECT) that they should match with each other well

I like the red better, it's more cohesive with the other blood moon skins. Glad they changed it.

I like red better than pink, the pink version just looked bad to me but red looks much better

"Blood moon is red"... Jinx does not agree. Pink version was astounding, and when you have something that good, you should not care whether blood is red or not.

A couple things. 1: Blood is red. The skins are red. I'd say that's a connection. Not the only connection, but there is one. 2: We all have our opinions, and I respect that. To ME, red looks better. To you, pink. Nothing wrong with that. 3: I'm a dude. lol Rose is a flower, not a color. I see pink when I look at her skin, not rose. lol

I like the red better and was seriously hoping this would happen. Honestly though, the human form still doesnt cut it for me and I don't really care for it. I wanted an elise skin SO BAD, but i don't want what is in my opinion the worst skin in the bloodmoon theme. Still hoping for killer splash art, that might be a saving grace.

I really like the pink one when I saw it I was like instabuy. When I saw it It felt like she represented a different side of blood moon more of a twilight inviting feeling then leads to mysterious death. The mysterious twilight sakura blood moon vibe close to her thematically in my opinion since the bright red is kinda like in your face murder muahahaha while the pink just matches her luring trapping and killing motto and playstyle.

Other than that two other reasons the old particles match the old pink one more versus the red since it was intentionally made for the pink now its like a smorgasbord of colors with the particles (blue, pink,purple,red white, gold). Plus from my standpoint as a skin buyer who purchases skins by how they look it honestly really makes me wanna just wait for another different colored skin. Like seriously if you compare the buying patterns of people who pay for looks vs by theme, It doesn't take statistics to know their is barely anybody out there who have all the blood moon skins vs people who pick on the individuality of the skin.

I saw someone commenting that pink human and red spider and red spiderlings that would be cool too. since her human form is more like the strategic form for trapping and luring that coincides with pink and the red spider form is the in your face murder kinda feel. Think about it calming pink/blue inviting twilight lady luring you mysteriously outside then at the full moon BOOM TRANSFORM TO BLOOD RED MURDEROUS SPIDER FRENZY. The particles would not be so out of place therefore no need of changing since the human for still has the intended pink particles and red spider well with red spider babies.

Pink looks good on Elise, but red looks better for Blood Moon Elise.

I personally would prefer a skin to be made immediately that utilizes this pink palette for Elise that isn't Blood Moon.

And the source material (Kabuki) can have a multitude of colors, but all other Blood Moon skins are red. Themed skins are themed consistently, and I doubt that is a pattern they will change just because you looked on google about Kabuki.
