Cosmic Blade Master Yi Skin Feedback

Just wanted to provide some feedback to hopefully see some change in the future. Other than that, it looks great and I can't wait for it.

  • Q (Alpha Strike) -- looks stiff, forced, slow and unsatisfying. Could definitely be A LOT better.

  • W (Meditate) -- sounds very similar to Bard 's sounds, and I don't like it that much. If it were to have him humming with the voice altered, that would be better in my opinion.

  • E (Wuju Style) -- looks great and I have no complaints.

  • ** R** (Highlander) -- looks amazing and no complaints at all.

  • His laugh sounds** a lot like the classic yi laugh**, if it were to be pitched a little more, that'd be fine.

That's all I have to say, have a great day :).

(this video came out before the skin spotlights one, and being a yi main I was too hyped so I immediately had to write something :D)

Hello, hello!

I appreciate the feedback! We're already in the process of looking at potential solves for Alpha Strike both in terms of SFX and VFX. I can sync up with the pod about the other SFX feedback you've brought up, too! :)

As someone who mains Master Yi, using different skins, and having spent many hours playing this champion, I believe that I can provide some useful insight to the further development for this skin. So here's my analysis.

Negatives

  • This skin's E may not be noticeable enough. The other yi skins have a very clear color change when his E is active whereas this skin's is much less impactful.
  • The sounds when using his Q don't sound impactful enough. It sounds more like metal is hitting metal when it should sound epic as if Master yi is creating a constellation. Perhaps the sound should increase in pitch after every hit to signify that Master yi has jumped to the next target (slightly).
  • The sounds for this skin's W is horribly similar to sounds bard would make. There should be a bigger difference or more distinction to set this skin apart in this regard unless this is what you're going for of course which is fine.
  • When comparing these colors with Cosmic Raver Kassadin's, you can clearly see some differences even though the colors should be more consistent across the cosmic skins.
  • On the "cape" for this skin, the cosmic elements should be more noticeable. Cosmic Reaver Kassadin's cape has this effect much more pronounce.
  • When getting a kill in "ultimate form" the blue color indicating that you got a kill is kinda lost within the ultimate's blur.
  • Master Yi's ultimate sounds too much like Sion's ult sound.

Positives

  • The animations are near perfect. I love the W, Q and R animations as well as the hit splashes
  • I love the extra attention to detail regarding the voice changes.
  • The recall animation is pretty awesome although it's lacking the constellations in the background like Cosmic Raver Kass.
  • The overall build/artwork of the skin is nice and isn't too chaotic. (There may be an excess of holes on this skin though. Cosmic Reaver Kassadin only has one I believe on the chest whereas this skin has a lot more but that's more of a design decision).
  • The color choices regarding the clothes is excellent along with the star for an eye.
  • I hope the sound for Master Yi's ultimate is global (everyone in the game can hear it if they're close enough).

Overall, I think it's a great skin but it has more potential than this. I keep bringing up Cosmic Reaver Kassadin because I believe the inspiration for this skin should be taken from that one. I mean just look at this skin. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1m8-_sxYc0 It's so much more high quality than Cosmic Blade Master Yi's is atm and is the same price 1350RP. It doesn't really feel fully like a Cosmic master Yi in it's current state. I know it's only a teaser but I hope they greatly improve this skin for release.

Thanks for taking our feedback! I hope mine helped as well!

So why isn't this skin out yet? I really like the skin on the pbe but I can't buy it because it's still unavailable.
