Odyssey Kayn Character Icon and Mastery problems.

Last year, Riot made it so that all skins, rather then just Ultimate ones, change the players character icon on the to the splash art from that skin. This is also the case for Odyssey Kayn, but only for his base form. When you choose to go either Shadow Assassin or Rhaast, your profile turns from Odyssey Kayn's splash art to the basic Shadow Assasisn or Rhaast, rather then the special Odyssey forms. I know that this is also the case for Kayn's Soulhunter skin, but for a legendary skin and the centerpiece of the event, I feel like something special should be done. Also, unlike the soul hunter skin, the forms are present in the splash art. Even just a light polish of the forms from the splash art being shown in the icon would be great. If not, I fully understand, but I think it would be a great addition to the skin.

Also, Kayn can't use his mastery emote when he has ulted an enemy.

I made a post similar to this a while back. If they were to just crop the 2 forms that are already in the splash art into the bubble icons it'd be a very very nice QOL improvement.

They've already addressed that they feel giving Kayn three portraits for every skin would mess with clarity as to what form he is (from the Scoreboard), since not every skin will naturally show as clearly as base where they're just Red/Blue. Not my reasoning, of course.
