About the new Blitz skins

I hope everyone can tell this isn't just a random spur of the moment thing they decided to do with the Blitz skin while they were developing it, as they said in the new /dev article. This is riot testing the waters for a new way of delivering skins/chromas. The Blitz skins are basically fancy chromas with some model, texture, splash and particle differences and they are putting a 1350rp price tag on both of them. Personally I think this is a bit much considering it takes less work making 2 skins as similar as these compared to making two separate new skins and there should definitely at least be a discount for those owning one of those skins and consider buying the other one. We'll probably see more of this in the future as they indicated in the article.

They've revealed that the bundle for the two will be priced at 1820, so that's a bit of a discount if someone wants both skins (considering a bundle of 2 1350s should be around 2700)

Yeah it is obvious that they are copying a ton of Heroes of the Storm stuff right and this is pretty much the next thing in line. Wait until everyone starts getting loot boxes full of emotes they don't want instead of skins too.
