About the Dauntless theme's color scheme

Black, Silver, and Pink.

Listen riot, I don't want to sound too picky here. The theme looks okay on Ahri. And by okay I mean it's mostly good, but you can't tell she's got a pony tail from behind because her hair blends in completely with her top. But that's less of case of the colors not working on her and more a case of terrible planning/concept art mixed with some twit in the art department not caring enough check his work to make sure all the key features are properly recognizable before shoving it off to PBE and forgetting about it. This mistake will be compounded by whoever is in charge of PBE not giving a crap about anything that's not a bug and ignoring objective qualitative issues people in the PBE bring up. I'm starting to think riot doesn't care about non-bug feedback on PBE. If this skin goes live as is, that'll pretty much prove it to me. However this is Ahri, so I guess basic professional standards don't apply to her because this legacy skin will sell like hotcakes anyways.

Yay greed! Who cares about quality when limited time screws-ups will still sell? :D

But back to the topic at hand. Pink. I get it we need a new skin line that contrasts with championship/victorious in terms of coloration. However pink is something most male characters (and a few monsters) will not be able to get away with. I mean you can try, but the next male with pink in one of his skins will be made fun of like taric. So I'd like to suggest coming up with a second color scheme for males who might get a dauntless skin or redoing the theme's color so it'd be more gender neutral.

And will somebody in riot please fix dauntless ahri's hair, it looks like someone forgot to finish a paint by numbers because they lost one of the colors that came with it.
