I hope those MF splashes will come out soon (Even Xin's new splash and the second batch Spell Icons)

If there are any rioters out there, can you please tell me if the MF splashes are ready for production and if maybe you can give us an exact date or patch. Thanks.

BTW, can you also give us info about Xin's new classic splash and the other ability icons of some champs ( 2nd batch to be exact )

Another thing, I have a suggestion that there should be 4 groups in doing/reworking splashes ( not teams, and possibly the head of the splash team will group the employees/freelancers on reworking/doing those splashes. Which they can collab or do anything in that specific group ). In each group, they can leave or go to the other groups(depends on the work) after they completed their task. 1 group should consist on reworking splashes(all outdated splashes) of a specific champion. For example, the head will assign them to rework Lux's outdated splashes. After the task is given, they can collab on a single splash of lux or divide their task for themselves. The next group should consist on reworking random outdated splashes (Classic/ Skin splash) to balance the distribution of reworking splashes specially to those champs that only needs to update one of its splash. For example, one group member wants to rework skarner's outdated classic splash, then, he/she can start that immediately while this one member wants to rework silent night sona splash, then he/she can start that too (Your thinking that sona should be group 1's problem and that she should be left out and have a group package considering that she has some outdated splashes to work on by G1 but with the designer wanting to rework that specific splash. Group 1 can have lesser work and it will speed up the process of reworking splashes.) The 3rd group should focus on doing new champ/VGU splashes and the last group should focus on creating upcoming skin splashes and other ability icons in their free time.

This is just a suggestion though and after there's no more outdated splashes, the 2 groups that focus on reworking should focus on reworking ugly ability icons. Whilst, speeding up the process and make the game updated as possible. :)

PS: I want riot to rework all Sivir's splashes already( including classic) because they're so outdated. Specially, her skin splashes looks cartoonish and not Riot level art like a chinese rip off of a mobile game. These needs to be updated already and i hope riot makes this as an exception for its rule because sivir is back to back with MF. Meaning, no back to back female marksman to be updated. Please just 1 exception riot. Other than sivir, Riot should rework skarner's classic splash because its so old and all other classic splash are living up to date and not his.

wow, this is a lot of text to type about something very immaterial and... well... kinda shallow? I don't mean to be insulting here, but what other word is there? this isn't about story, or mechanics... your original post is only about how things look and well....that's....by definition, the opposite of deep.

i got the feeling that maybe the developers and art team are working on something slightly more important.

When did they say there was another set of icons coming?

This spring will be an entire year since they did splash updates. They said it’s because there are so many skins to redraw for all the VGU’s that they’ve been pumping out lately (which makes since). But in all honesty I just don’t think they view it as something that’s valuable anymore. It’s a shame too, cause reworked splashes like Trundle, Twitch, Nid, Shen, and Karma we’re so well done and always exciting to see.... and of course they stop right after saying they’d resplash my two most played adc’s (MF and Siver).

Yea Xin Zhao should have priority since its his main splash art, and they said it would come shortly after his update yet its been 4 months
