Last year we got the base Victorious skin: a white, black and green-ish version of the skin as well Base victorious for gold in any queue + associating chroma (flex, solo, 3v3)
Why does Orianna only get red and green? I assume are flex and 3v3 accordingly.
Are there any plans to introduce a chroma for solo/duo or is that just it?
side note: her neck is WAY to long in that splash art.
I imagine the chromas she's getting will be the only two she's getting, and I can kind of understand why - as well as why people'd be frustrated about it.
So, for why it makes sense for them to do it like this (Gold+ in one queue for the skin, then a bonus Chroma for each other queue you reach Gold+ in) is that, for one, giving Chromas for unique queues was pretty experimental (as was a number of things - like Bonus Honor Rewards and tying Ranked rewards to Honor.), so it makes some sense that they'd try to ideate on it further than just "Get a Chroma per queue".
I think that the reason they chose to test this route was to make it feel more like getting the Chromas was an actual reward for effort to prove yourself in all of the available queues, over just pick-and-choosing which queues you want the color for.
And, I can also understand why people would get frustrated over it. Hell, even I'm kinda frustrated over it. When they added Chromas to the Ranked rewards for 2017, they set a pretty noteworthy precedent, and changing the formula (however unrefined it may have been) breaks that precedent, and doubtless makes some people feel worse about their Ranked climb.
I can also probably see it as being pretty irritating to Orianna mains in particular, since their main got shafted one Chroma while Graves mains can tout three to their Champion.
I think it may be a little too late to get a third Chroma for Victorious Orianna, but, this is definitely the time where feedback is gonna ring out the loudest, so if people want Chromas per individual queue, this'd be the time they'd tell it.
They changed it. Insted of being given for specific queue, it's based on amount of queues. Gold+ in one Base Skin, Gold+ in two queues Chroma B, Gold+ in all three queues Chroma C. So it seemed they had no need for additional Chroma.
Also there is no Victorious Ward. Generally they put all resources into cash-milking KD/A and the Event Pass and seemingly didn't care too much about Haloween (look at Kled's skin's Q and you can see the lack fo resources in creative process plus no game mode at all) or end-of-season rewards. Even Honor wards seem to be the same.
I believe there is one for solo, the rewards page says that you get the skin and chroma. Then it says "Two bonus chromas"
Even tho I love Orianna and Hate Graves in gameplay , I don't wanna complain about something like that
3v3 flex is cancer [zombie-nunu-tears]
This feels very trivial
NO ONE CARES ABOUT ORIANNA ANYWAYS!!!
Graves' chromas let you show off which queue you played to earn him, but you can only show off the one queue at a time.
You get the Orianna skin for having Gold in one queue, one chroma for Gold in two queues, and two chromas for Gold in all three. They aren't tied to specific queues like Graves. They let you show off that you finished two or all three, which Graves couldn't do since you could only show off one chroma at a time. Orianna is one of my favorite champions, so I get it, but in general I think they're gorgeous; much more so than Graves' were. So I don't feel too bad personally. I'm sorry
Honestly. It's pretty infuriating. I felt like the way they did graves was really nice it showed off "Hey I play this gamemode in ranked" Now it just feels like I'm forced to play gamemodes I might not like (I hate 5v5 flex queue, I just hate it.)
