All the World Breakers have some new particle except Nasus, is there anyway to change this?

There all the same cost yet Hecarim has 3 new particles (I think his W even has a new animation but dont hold me to it). Nasus however has 0 new particles or animations. I get its 750 but it'd be nice if even the symbol his E created was changed.

its mostly because these skins are 750-skins,while these usually don't get new ability effects the other 3 worldbreaker skins are simply exceptions for the following reasons: Trundle gets a new pillar,because new models for 750-skins aren't uncommon(even ability-related models),look at Bard bards new meeps for example

Nautilus gets a new W,because the old one would be extremely unfitting(they did the same with warden nautilus) and obviously he throws his new anchor,because that is part of his new model

Hecarim has his new spectral riders,because his base model looks different,so it wouldn't make sense for him to get his old spectral riders. Though he also seems to have gotten a recolored W(what bugs me is that when his halberd glows from his Q,you can clearly see that it is the old effect,but I guess this might get changed),which seems unneeded and more like a small bonus.

So they all got either model-related ability-updates(Nauts Q,trundles pillar,Hecas riders) or changes to abilites that clashed too hard with the skin itself(Nauts shield). Not sure about why they changed Hecarims W,though it is likely to match his new color scheme a bit more(so it would be in the same category as Nauts W)

In the case of Nasus however he doesn't really have any of these problems,his skills fit in terms of color(actually more than they fit his regular ingame model) nad he doesn't have new models in his kit.

The Hecarim Skin got something (maybe just glowyness) new for his Q. And then his W too got the new stuff, im not sure if the animation is new but I dont remember it on Hecarim.

I get your case about models, but it'd be nice if this skin had something. For example, Archduke Nasus' coat changes during his ult. World breaker just adds the purple particles which blend in with the skin's colors and make him bigger. If they made his Q different, or made his E symbol different, or just recolored a part of him during his ult it would be a very nice thing.

The animation on Hecas W is definetly the same as the regular one,its just a bit more blue.

Not sure what glowiness you are referring to,the glow of his halberd when he swings it?(which isn't really different it is exactly the same) Or the one after he gains his rampage stacks?Because that one isn't new either(if you look closely you can even see that the glow has the exact same shape as his regular weapon).

Also the colors of Nasus do change a bit when he ults,its just that they aren't replaced by entirely new colors and just become a lot more pale compared to his regular colors.

Hecarim's Q has some new particles for sure.

Nasus's World Breaker ult blends in with his ults particles so much it looks like he has some dark purple around his hands and just got bigger. He has so little going on besides growth it'd be nice if he had any thing new.

I compared Hecarims Q effects side by side and both have the same swing-color and the same flame effects.

The only thing that might make it look different is the fact that he uses a completely different shaped halberd

His Q has more green particles.

His Q always had a more green tone http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gC5VeGAdtFc/UahfbgglGnI/AAAAAAAAA6w/E1GYMQrY77Q/s1600/hecarim+rampage.png Its just that he now uses a green axe to do it,which is why it looks even more green.

Ah! I still feel Nasus deserves some love. Something small even.
