Some time ago I made disscusion about Arcade Sona x Arcade Miss Fortune. (I believe that disscusion was a bit spicy)
I'd like to bring this up again. I am just simply concerned about early arcade skins (Sona and Hecarim) in comparison to latter ones (Miss fortune and Veigar?) .
There is big difference between skills visuals though skills visuals where the point of buying Sona and Hecarim. But now I cannot help feeling that those skins are in dark shadow of the new ones.
SirTezla2 votesI like the quality of the old arcade skins as well as the new ones. The new ones don't need that much of an update. The Sona skin is my favorite skin in the game because of the colors and indicators of buffs and debuffs.
Decrit1 votesIt seems pretty reasonable to me, after all those are later skins done with later tech and, if i am right, with different pricing?
Probably they will all get a rehaul like the Pentakill skins did, but if i am right Arcade sona got new sounds effects and model so it' s not that old, while Hecarim will always be a unpassable fabolousness
"I am fabolous incarnated!"
Wullf1 votesmy point is, that quality of arcade skins is not consistent.
Lumus Avatar1 votesis the price of the skin consistent? I haven't looked and I got arcade hecarim for free when I went to Pax last year, so I've never thought about the quality.
One thing I have noticed - low cost skins are just the skin of the champ. Medium cost skins will add particle effects, change skill colors. High cost skins will add a new back animation, add lines or change the VO completely (ala Arcade Veigar, PROJECT Yasuo).
In general, that is to say.
Wullf1 votesI checked and it is as you say. Arcade Sona 975RP and Arcade Miss Fortune 1350RP. (Final Boss Veigar 1820RP)
Still it does not make me less sad about it.
Lumus Avatar1 votesSorry, mate.
Tesla Effect1 votesLook at Pentakill, Full Metal, Battlecast and more, its clear that the most resent skins of that line will be more on par with the theme.
Wullf1 votesWell as matter of fact I am quite satisfied with how arcade Sona looks (cannot say that about Hecarim though), but main problem is the visuals of skills.
Vegiar and Miss do have awsome skills visuals and that makes me sad when I compare it with Sona's and Hecarim's
