Soulstealer Vayne needs an update

For a while now I've been feeling like soulstealer vayne is one of the worst hextec gemstone skins. I love vayne and i would love the skin, but compared to the other gemstone skins it doesn't compare. Its lacks the amazing particle effect hextec annie has. Its lacks a cool splash art like hextec kogmow. To me the skin just feels like a glorified chroma. Even when compared to other vayne skins it is not the best. Project vayne for one is much much better. Cool motorcycle, cool special effect, and a nice dance. An update would really make the work needed to get the skin worth it. What are everybodies opinions? Are there other legendary or epic skins that could use a slight update to make them worth getting?

Gemstone Skins (Dreadnova Darius, Hextech Annie, Kog'Maw, Alistar, Poppy, Lancer Zero Hecarim, etc.) are all classed as Epic Tier skins - 1350RP, for a better reference point.

Epic Skins (1350RP) can have the following:

Unique model appearance
Unique VFX
Unique SFX
VO filtering
Unique Recall Animation

and, in some cases, even unique Fast-run/Homeguard Animations (example; Star Guardian Skins, or the Sacred Sword skins).

Legendary Skins (1820RP) on the other hand, can have:

New and unique model appearance
Unique VFX
Unique SFX
Unique VO
VO filtering
Unique Animations

And they may have other unique effects, like PROJECT: Vayne's visual overlay during Final Hour.

It is extremely unfair to try and compare an Epic skin with a Legendary skin - and besides, your comparison to other similar skins is all subjective.

Its lacks the amazing particle effect hextec annie has.

Why do you think that? Because it's simple and spectral instead of elaborate and hextech-themed?

Its lacks a cool splash art like hextec kogmow.

Again; why? I personally think her low, agile-looking action-pose is pretty damn neat, especially with the lighting.

Soulstealer isn't even that old of a skin. It's just hard to make a skin for Vayne that changes more than a few things without having to make a legendary like PROJECT, cause her particles are really simple.
