As someone who enjoys playing kayle I have to vent my frustration with her new skin. It has been a while since she's gotten a new skin and some elements of it are nice. Where I find a problem is that her skin is basically just an accessory to the morde rework as can be seen by the ground sigil on her new skill graphic. While this may be the direction that pentakill is going, the pentakill skill line is easily one of the least popular and least widely appealing skill lines. Kayle getting a skin in it especially with the recent morde rework announcement shouldn't preclude her from getting a new skin in a more widely appealing line or a solo skin in the near future. It's not fair to people who actually like Kayle for kayle (instead of as a morde accessory) to have to potentially wait years for a real skin to come her way.

With that being said, I do like the black outfit/wings and the hairstyle and the sword looks nice in game. The deep orange color of skill graphics looks nice especially contrasted with the black in her model but the pentakill/morde sigil and the pentakill elements of her splash such as the microphone really detract from an otherwise nice skin.

TLDR: pentakill was a dead skin line for a reason, dont waste a kayle skin on it just bc morde is getting reworked.

I have all of the Pentakill skins and I often think they are the best skins for the champions they are on.

Yorick, Kathus, Mord, and Olaf do not have a skin, in my opinion, that is better than their Pentakill.

I hope that Sona gets a VU to bring Pentakill up to the standards Arcade is at, new effects and sounds would be amazing on Pentakill Sona.

Pentakill Kayle looks dank i dont know why you are complaining about it. And the symbol isnt Morde. Its the symbol for the Pentakill Band. And the skin release isnt for the morde announcement. Its for the New pentakill Album announcement

Pentakill is a dead skinline? It's one of my favorites, and getting me even more hyped with the second album.

Whoa whoa whoa, what? When was Morde confirmed for a rework? I know he's on the waiting list, but last I heard it was Swain who was receiving the next VGU.
