It looks really cool and should be kept but it raises the question why Dragonslayer braum's dragon skull got turned into an orange ram head. Since you're giving this feature to this new skin might it be possible to change DS braum's back to the cool dragon one? Please?
PsycloneJoker17 votesI looked up what they said about the Dragonslayer passive effect and this is what Riot Wreckz said,
"This is a totally reasonable question.
Braum's passive requires a lot of ally interaction, probably the most of any ability in our game outside of thresh lantern. Braum getting Concussive Blows on an enemy is a call to action for his allies to focus fire that target, as a result the call needs to be very clear. We evaluated these things and made the decision that changing the iconography on his skin was too different from the base for allies to be expected to follow up in the way that we wanted, so instead took an approach to make changes to the base icons color that make it feel at home on the skin while still maintaining a consistent and readable shape language/symbol.
We totally think that the dragon face icon was cool, but pushing towards our game design goal of clarity we felt in this case making the gameplay oriented decision of providing a consistent symbol was the best choice for all players experiences."
I really hope they come in here and go, "Actually we realized that was a silly idea so here is the Dragonslayer symbol back guys."
Also for those unfamiliar with what it used to look like here is a picture: http://i.imgur.com/BLVGT1Z.jpg
Jakethenight5 votesKalista's Sentinel passive just disproved that paragraph; can we have the icon back?
Placentas1 votesEh, I thought the same, but I have played both Kalista and Braum, and Braums passive is a lot more dire in terms of needing to work with your teammate. Yes the extra damage from Kalistas passive/w is lovely, but Braum can cause a stun on multiple enemies if done well and it's really quite easy with adc who has a decent AS.

yes, because it was so hard as braums teammate to count to 4 when it wasen't a rams head filling up. My fragile little mind was unable to comprehend that it was a different graphic counting to 4.

"Dude, why didnt you AA for my passive?"
"Omg, that was your Passive?! It changed into a dragon head? I CAN NOT NOTICE IT IF IT ISNT A GOAT RITO PLZ!!!"
Riot seriously thinks we are mentally handicapped, theres no other explanation.
Blue Moon Wolf1 votesis it bad I can picture someone saying that as an excuse?
DUDE BRO1 votesWhen the champ JUST came out and there's never been interaction like that, yes your fragile little mind would have had problems.
Look at thresh, how many times they changed his lantern to be more visible/clear with indicators and arrows and people STILL don't grab it.
Now that everyone is used to braum it's okay to bring out different passives.
Malicious Metal8 votesI'd like to see the dragon skull instead of the generic one as well.
Kingsgrave5 votesyeah wtf rito
RavenShadowen5 votesI was actually kind of pissed about this when I saw it hit the Beta. I'm really hoping Riot changes the Dragonslayer one too, because it just feels so awkwardly out of place on the skin as a recolored ram.
Catrian4 votesI really hope they change Braum's indicator for Dragonslayer back to the original Dragon one.I'd also rather they kept the uniqueness of the new Tiger one as well instead of scrapping it for the ram again because of the same flawed reasoning as before.
General Keith2 votesI don't play Braum, but I say yes
StuffedTurkey0072 votesPls riot. It's very clear to me that it's the same indicator.
AbodyHUN6662 votesIt's really about time they changed dragon slayer then.
WoodenIncubus2 votesAs stated in another thread like this....
"I don't play Braum, but I do agree with this. Varus has been out for a while and with his Arclight skin, his W stacks look very familiar... 
I'm just saying... some people would enjoy new effects more often on first release skins like that."
