SKT T1 Nami/Jhin Skin Suggestions @Riot

Shirvallah·Jun 19, 2017·2 votes·4,560 views

As for Nami, I think adding some of that gold glitter to her Q and R was a step in the right direction. However, the water beneath Nami looks out of place to me. Is there any way some of that gold glittery effects could be incorporated to that, as well?

These are the current changes for those that need a reference:

As for Jhin, the flowers on his E don't really feel all that glamorous to me. Is there any way they could get some of the Nami treatment? Maybe outline the flowers with a glittery gold? And maybe add some purple hues to the inner parts or the veins of the flower? They feel boring and dull as this current flat tan-ish color with a random red crystal in the center. It doesn't flow too well for me.

Video of the current flowers (they can be found at 1:14):

I have a HUGE problem with the splash face or lack thereof - seriously zoom in on that

Honestly, I agree with you. Nami's face looks awkward as fuck in the splash art. It's the first thing I saw when I viewed the splash as a whole — not because I immediately searched for Nami. I instantly thought the nose looked a bit wonky, but mainly...I wondered where the hell the mouth was! Haha. It took me a few minutes of staring at the fish to realize her mouth was awkwardly gaping open.

I think this is another Conqueror Karma splash case. The face needs to be redone.

Hey Wrathina -

I appreciate you taking the time to leave feedback! At this point, what's on PBE is final, and additional changes won't be made. In the future, I'd highly encourage you to leave feedback as soon as possible, so we have time to discuss and iterate on your suggestions/feedback in general. I realize that some feedback would come later than others, based on changes mid patch, but as a general rule of thumb, ASAP is the best track for any PBE content!

For context, the changes to Nami specifically were based on feedback given to us early last week, and changes were implemented on Friday evening, and shipped to PBE Monday morning.

That's a shame. She looks unfinished. I know plenty of Nami players that would have liked that. :( I actually saw some people voice the same opinion early on last week. I guess you guys didn't see it, though, which I totally get, since y'all are so busy.

I do comb through a lot of feedback, but unfortunately, we aren't able to cater to every suggestion made. :c

I just wanna know why these are 1350 skins that don't have new SFX?

Since according to your Tier Guide all 1350s come with new SFX.

https://support.riotgames.com/hc/en-us/articles/201752874-Guide-to-Skin-Price-Tiers

Features: new model, new texture, new splash image, new animations, new visual effects,** new sounds**. Sometimes includes: processed voice overs.

I understand how that goes. If everyone could have a say in everything, we'd all be running around with pool noodles smacking each other like mad trying to have our say be applied first. Not to mention, the changes would look odd half the time, I'm sure. For instance, I saw someone recolor Nami's wave to like a Fanta orange. Looked like a huge wave of soda was rushing down the rift. That............would have been interesting to see in game......to say the least. o_O

Regardless, thank you for looking at my post and taking the time to respond, even though I was too late. Didn't know I was too late. Nami's my favorite champion for literally every reason — her kit, her lore, her personality, her art. Can't blame me for wanting her to be the best she can be. c:

Haha, exactly! Art's subjective, so there's a lot of different directions any skin can go in. At the end of the day, we want to make something awesome that aligns with the goals we set for the skin/thematic overall.

I saw feedback about making the ult entirely yellow, and I was like, 'hey, so...that's going to look like pee. D:'

Yeah, of course, you're welcome! If you aren't super familiar with the PBE cycles, it can be hard to know when it's a good time to leave feedback. :c PBE is generally every two weeks, on a Tuesday/Wednesday. So, next week, there will be a new PBE patch. New skins content shows up on the first day, and that week (Tuesday - Friday) is the optimal window for any larger suggestions, i.e. part of the model looks weird/holy shit there's a bug. The following week is also a good time to give feedback (sometimes on the next iteration of changes), but also smaller suggestions; i.e. a color tweak on something. Any and all feedback is accepted! :)

Nami's also my bae, so I feel you! If I had my way, she'd have ten legendary skins by now. Luckily for everyone else, I don't make those calls. :P
