Make the Invasion Void Beasts into 750 skins

They look sick just do it. You guys already made it now sell it. I know how Rito loves free money. Plus some champs that need some skins like Skarner would now get skins.

For a moment I had thought you were suggesting Riot release 750 skins in one go rather than skins that cost 750 rp.

Reading comprehension aside I also think it would be pretty cool if they were released as complete skins.

I think a rioter on twitter said that they reason they weren't planning on releasing those skins was because while they had the model they didn't have all the abilities made. None of kogmaw's abilities are in Invasion, just his autos and Reksai and Skarner only use one of their 4 abilities. Hopefully they will tho cause the skins look nice and it'd be fun to go against one as a star guardian on the rift.

750 skins imply no particle changes. That means the abilities can stay the same while the model changes.

oh haha you're right! my mistake

But what I believe they mean is that they don't use their full kits. They only use some abilities so they'd have to actually model them using those with the new look.

If they're just retextures, all they'd have to do is copy their textures and replace the base champion's texture.

With the new ability particles, they could probably just change the contrast or tint of the color to have a green look rather than make new particles from scratch with difference shapes and sizes.

No animations or particle changes required.

Let's say there was an Ahri model of the void monsters. She doesn't need a Void-based orb, charm, or fox fires. Her Orb looks the same, her charm, and the fire whisps all look the same. Her base model is different. Think of Ashe 's woad skin.

I think they're suggesting that the current Void models aren't even able to make the motions associated with certain abilities. Like your suggested Ahri wouldn't have a Void Q animation.

Not sure they half assed the models hard enough that this would actually be the case, but I'm pretty sure that's what this person was suggesting.

I understand they didn't make them. I'm explaining what Torm meant. Some skins are retextured models but the abilities aren't changed.

I've worked at game development. He actually gets it, you don't.

SukishooAug 18, 20173 votes

No, if you did then you'd understand very well what Riot said. They said they "had the model but didn't have all the abilities made"

Meaning that the champions aren't fully built in these looks so that's why they weren't releasing skins right now at least. Say they have the animations down for like an E ability but then they don't have one ready for the Q, W or an R, so they would still have to fit the model to those riggings, test them for quality control, make sure they work properly, ect. It's not about the textures, we're not talking about using the base model that was already done (for a champ or skin) where they change the textures and call it a Chroma. These skin like creations, people were saying could be 750s which include brand new models and sometimes ability changes where they fit the themes. However, Riot didn't fully make these as usable skins because it was a quickly made AI model for a Game-Mode.

Gaara of ShurimaAug 17, 20173 votes

I believe the point they're making is that the current models don't do certain motions that are tied to using certain abilities. So say Kog ults, if they don't have the current Void model able to do that animation it would just be missing from the proposed skin. I'm not sure if that's actually how it would work since I don't know if they actually half assed the models that hard, but that's the point attempting to be made here.

Void skarner? but skarner is already void... in his existence

HipercsigaAug 18, 20173 votes

Nope, he is from Runaterra. He lived under the crystal scar.

What are we talking about?

TormentulaAug 17, 20172 votes

Literally the only thing riot would have to do is make splasharts for them, or alternatively just chromas if the models aren't different. Riot doesn't even have a good excuse why they can't make these skins considering we're not even asking for particle changes with them.

I would spam the shit outta that rek'sai and skarner skin tbh.

TheFancySkeletonAug 17, 20172 votes

Does anyone have any pictures of them? I can't find them anywhere.

GreenheathAug 17, 20172 votes

Im also finding no images or info about these skins. Where was this revealed????

UnboundHadesAug 18, 20172 votes

the new mode on pbe has u fighting remodeled versions of kog,vel,skarner,rek,kha,and cho and the op is asking if riot can just release those remodels are cheap skins seeing how they look nice

BIödhgarmSep 9, 20172 votes

not to mention Rek Sai has no skins at all and giving her the void one would be nice to see

Tin ObliteratesAug 17, 20171 votes

Yes pls.

Variks the LoyalAug 17, 20171 votes

Yes please! I'd love to use the Rek'Sai one.

I don't care about updated spell effects, just want them.

Velzard of KozAug 17, 20171 votes

Sewed Chaos Blitz and Amumu looked better than these filter-recolors and they scrapped them coz they weren't quality enough. If they would actually release those "skins" that are filter-recolor chromas, the previous decision would be a joke.

PhoenixOfHeavenAug 17, 20171 votes

Yes please! I saw them and thought these would be awesome, cheap skins. Maybe make a really cheap pack to contain all of em, too. Cho's gained quite a bit of popularity, so a cheap skin on him would be great. And I want that Kog/Reksy ones myself.
