I like the Ziggs one a lot, but I wish that these didn't all look so similar. Arcade skins in the past have always looked quite unique from each other with different color schemes. This year they are all purple, which is weird cause it doesn't even match up with the colors of Battle Boss Blitzcrank. I do like the particles quite a bit, but I think the skins themselves could use some work.
yea i really wasnt excpeting the battle boss skins to be so... pink
as opposed to blitz
maybe they could change it to red for brand
dark muted purple for malz
and keep ziggs as is
Battle Boss /= Final Boss. Final Boss > Battle Boss.
Brand's classic and a few of his skins are already red. It's good to have different color schemes in a champion's skins.
okay he has a couple that area "default" coloured because those are just 750 priced skins
im talking new particle effects and what not
this is the third blue particle skin for brand

My only issue with that is they don't even look like the match with the other Battle Boss Blitzcrank skin though. Plus idk, I just kind of like the fun of everyone having different color schemes. :(
Blitz is tier 1 Battle Boss. They are all tier 2.
That's my head canon.

maybe theyll be released with chromas
These skins look amazing, but I'm low-key salty that Brand and Ziggs are getting more good skins when we still got Yorick, Illaoi, Kled, Taliyah, A.Sol, etc. all without more skins.
and viktor
might be a ninja, but we can't forget about him.
Shen actually has quite a few skins, he doesn't really need many more at the moment. I could list them off if you want? Or you could just look them up.
I am fully aware of his skins. He still lacks a GOOD skin of a higher price tier.
This Brand skins looks awesome.
Only problem I have is that it's blue color scheme will compete with Spirit Fire Brand when I want to play a blue Brand.
Really? I thought the Brand was was kinda bad. Honestly I thought it was Ezreal for a moment due to the Q.
Eh, I've wanted a cyborg Brand skin that isn't cyrocore so it fits my needs.
I like the skin ideas a lot, but jeez do those ones come with a lot of visual clutter on their abilities. Ziggs ult might as well be ulting my computer for all that I can make out until the particle effects fade away.
I love the bomberman reference on Ziggs and those particles on Malzahar make it a close second to Snow Day Malz.
But holy hell Brand looks really freaking happy.
He got into Teemo's stash and now he feels like he's on fire.
He's got the YAAAAAS face.
Why, good lord, why.
Brand really reminds me of this: https://static.comicvine.com/uploads/scale_small/6/64684/1309623-tourchman.exe.jpg
He is already fairly close, but the colors and effect need some changes.
firemannnnn
no its Torchman unless fireman is his japanese name
Kinda sad that there is no Battleboss Urgot where he flies in an Ufo and looks like Robotnik.
But then again we can still hope for Star guardian Urgot :p
It won't happen, unless they turn the star guardian skin line into an april fools joke.
I was just considering buying spirit fire Brand. I guess i'll wait until this skin comes out. I LOVE arcade skins!
The new Brand skin is bad. The abilities look puny. Unless they fix them it's better to buy spirit fire. (and i'm speaking as somebody who loves to play brand)
Yeah, I just rewatched it and the abillities could be a little bit more spectacular. I hope they do fix it, because I love the arcade skin line.
So I guess the star guardian skins have been delayed indefinitely......
well nothing has said when the SG skins could be here
So I guess the star guardian skins have been delayed indefinitely......
No, they are probably just coming next patch after this one. Last year the Star Guardian skins came out in the middle of August as well if I'm remembering correctly. Now Pool Party skins on the other hand... pretty sure those are not happening at this point (I'm still hoping PROJECT hasn't been dropped as a theme for this year either).
nope. SG skins came out in sep in the pbe then it came live in oct last year.
I want that Malz skin pretty bad
I really wish they had different color schemes. The purple on blue is not nice at all. I'm hoping for chromas at least
Am I the only one who noticed arcade/joystick turrets?
Arcade game mode? Arcade SR? Oh we might have some new stuff next patch. :>
It's just a temporary map upgrade. It'll also have an option to disable in options. So unfortunately no new mode.
Damn Malz is my go to mid laner but these skins don't really cut it for me. Arcade definitely isn't my favorite skin line either.
I'm real surprised Yorick, Viktor, and Nasus were left out for this. I thought at least one of those would have made it. Ziggs makes sense, thats neat and Arcade Ziggs was a skin I've wanted for a while. Malzahar was a good choice but Brand? I love that Brand's getting a new skin but I don't like this one. The particles don't look like the other arcade skin particles. They just look like pixelated version of his normal spells with a blue filter. And his passive is really freaking hard to see because now its just a single blue ring with no particles of fire flying everwhere. AND his ult just looks like a bigger Q.
Compared to Malzahar and Ziggs, the spells have a shit ton more character.
Well these little teaser things sometimes don't quite have everything in them yet so I imagine the brand skin will get some tweaks on PBE
Yup!
I also plan to write some feedback once they do pop up on PBE.
There's been a fair bit of negative feedback along those lines through other outlets. So anything you can add for ideas to improve it will certainly be helpful.
Brand one looks like a weird OC
I don't see the problem so many people have with these skins. Brand and Malz's are really fucking solid. Ziggs is the only one I don't like because Viktor would have been a way better pick.
Been playing a ton of Malz recently and really like the skin. Do wish his colors matched his sweet red voidlings though for a bit stronger differentiation from the base.
Love the arcade-ish skins! They are labeled "Battle Boss" instead of "Final Boss" so does this mean there is only one more skin left, or are they apart of a separate line?

The Blitz Riven Splash is not a limit on how many skins there are gonna be we already have way more arcade skins than the Selector shows, it was just for the feel of the classic pick your character screen
You are probably right about no limitations. Although there are 10 Slots and we only have 9 so far which is why I was wondering if "Battle" is part of a different line. Speaking of the pick your hero screen... https://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/b/b2/Arcade_Select_pixel_1.gif/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/300?cb=20160826130527
