Great, now Seju's traditional skin looks even worse ingame

I really, really want to use that skin because of the updated splashart, but ingame the skin is just horrible. It generally was not her best skin, back then when they gave her her VGU it felt like the skin was done like some sort of "chore" by the team working on her. The colors are weird, the armor and everything not fitting to the actual version of Seju, and back then the lore team had absolutely no vision for a "younger Seju" which can also be seen when observing the design.

They just made a traditional skin because, well, at the time it was common to make one to make those eternal complainers in the community shut up. (That specific crowd that always complains about SJWs (altho those might not have had that lable yet at that time) and whatever when it comes to reducing misplaced fanservice. "IT'S FANTASY HAVING ALL (female) CHARACTERS REGARDLESS OF CULTURE AND PERSONALITY WEAR SKIMPY OUTFITS IS TOTALLY LEGIT!". Yeah they were a pretty embarassing crowd to look at, that's for sure.)

Seju's original design comes from a time when Riot created champions that had little worth to preserve than an archetype with some random stuff tacked on - and even trying to maintain that within a traditional skin at the current level of design (which has vastly improved over the years) is a quest doomed to fail.

And the worst part: THE PIG ARMOR MAKES BRISTLE LOOK LIKE HE'S WEARING A METAL DIAPER. It's just so weird and unaesthetic to look at.

Also, currently her effects are not the best to look at either, and her gameplay will need some follow-up changes. She is now strong but FEELS completly unimpactful, power budget has gone into the weirdest places, and so on and so on.... but the bad looking stuff on normal and other skins just strikes harder on her skin that ALREADY needed an overhaul since day one.

So please give her skins a proper texture and vfx overhaul. Now you have all these pretty splashes but that makes the bad parts ingame look even worse...
