And also heres a meme to thank you for your time

argument: Compare Proj. Pyke to DC Jhin

Jhin has 20 minutes of voicelines while pyke has 10

Jhin gets entirely new animations while Pyke only has some

Jhin gets a new walking animation while Pyke just recycles

Dark Cosmic skin line was released to the Live servers and Qiyana on the PBE at the same patch while Project Reckoning gets released on the live server while Pantheon is at the PBE

If he was getting new animations, they would have been added during production before he was on PBE.

Not all legendary skins have unique animations, and while I agree that Pyke could have used at least a new homeguard animation and idle animation(s), I don't think there's much more they could have done either than that. He is just too distinct due to the way he stands and moves. Like, there's a ton of ways to throw something like Jhin's grenades and traps, so changing those animations is easy. How else are you supposed to show something like Pyke's dash or his ultimate? Those aren't exactly something you can change drastically, because people have to be able to tell whats happening.
