It's weird because they've been nailing splashes yet in game models just don't seem to work for me these days. Arclight Yorick is the epitome of this.

The splash artists don't work on in-game models.

I'm sure they could make good in-game models but they are limited by poly-counts and vfx contraints because they want low end machines to be able run the game. The dev-blog on development of the ultimate Lux skin was all about this. They had to find a low performance cost method of loading 10 skins for one champ.

I was fully agaisn't ARchlight yorick, i demand better quality for the eventual urgot skin. I won't settle for some spammy shit like project urgo or arcade. Fuck that genetic crap, give me start guardian, spider monster, baron urgot, Something new or something that has decent consideration worked on.

Won't accept 'spammy' skins like project or arcade Urgot but would take Star Guardian lol no wonder why Riot doesn't take its players seriously

RainbowIcee1 votes

it's only because starguardian urgot would be special not like the genetic others, you but giving you a point riot will just make him edgy so yea maybe not start guardian urgot either unless it's gloriously colorful.

This splash has en epic vibe sure, but I'm sad about the fact that we can't see a god damn thing about his armor

Everything is hidden by the cape, and the (weird sized) demon arm is like popping out of his chest, the perspective is a bit flat, accentuated by Swain's posture

The dragon part of the skin is good, but the overall armor design is a bit dull

Also, the perspective of the crown is kinda fucked up, the horn in the back should be way more back and since the head is always the center of attention, it ruins it for me x(

Cool, the dragon on the top of Swain looks a bit similar to Ebonmaw and the old Dragon of Summoners Rift

Isn't Ebonmaw the old dragon? Or you mean the second one (before elemental ones)?
Edit: oooh nevermind, I just saw Ebonmaw was in TT :/

I'm having difficulties making sense of his headpiece in this splash. Is it supposed to be asymmetrical or does it have perspective issues? To me, it looks like the closer horn is towards the back of his head while the further horn is towards the front. Dragons are cool though.

Splash is nice, too bad the ingame model doesn't do the splash any justice.

Yoinked Your Ult1 votes

If only the model and animations did justice to this godly splash, in game dragon master Swain is the most underwhelming thing ever.
