Has Riot stopped doing animated Login Screens?

Yuumi never received a quality login screen, if she even got one. Mordekaiser seems like he won't be getting one either. (Yes I know it's a champion theme.) It just feels kind of half-assed especially for Yuumi players. I just hope i'm overthinking this.

Nothing but LCS here

Oh nononoon no... Login screens were such a cool thing and are a thing since league of legends itself. NO no no no way they just gave up on login screens.

Personally I miss when they used to remix the original League theme for champion themes on their logins.

I think it was overshadowed by the LCS log in screen

Yuumi barely fucking moves in hers, it's kinda disappointing, especially with her ''magical cat'' title.

I'm fine with that, it's a waste of resources for me, maybe an unpopular opinion

If they add an in client way of changing the login screen i'd care more about them.

Yuumi kind of came out in the middle of a double event. They had both MSI login screens and Battle Academia (which Yuumi was technically a part of), so I think it was just a matter of coming out at the wrong time. No word on Mordekaiser yet, sometimes login screens don't hit PBE until late in the cycle, so there's still time. Its worth noting that both Morde and Yuumi have musical themes even if they never have login screens. Mordekaiser's played in the background of his behind-the-scenes reveal video and Yuumi's played during her reveal trailer, and is also on League's YouTube page here:

I feel like at this rate we'll actually get our first deleted champion soon.

I think they're actually just not allocating time for the champion ones, which are being made, in favor of the esports ones. the BA skinline got one, Yuumi got one, but there's been a lot going on lately so they just haven't had proper representation. I wish we could choose from a selection. Maybe like the last 5 logins, since it seems like too much to ask for all of them lol

I mean no they aren't. The Battle Academia got an animated Login Screen, same with the Zed legendary. I honestly don't know why Yuumi didn't get one.

The theory that the Battle Academia replaced it doesn't make sense either since the Kayle & Morgana rework had an animated one, and the Cats and Dog event came with them that also got an animated Login.

So Mordekaiser will probably get one, but it might just be put on hold because the new Dark Star Jhin skin might get an animated one as well. Both will probably be uploaded to the official channel though.
