I never post on these boards, but after seeing many troll post about the skin i have decided to make a post, Your complains are all useless, you are bashing a skin because of its BEST FEATURES, the level 11 and level 16 transformations are epic and i wish she had more similar look at levels 1-6! and i will buy the skin for sure and many of my friends will too, drastically changing the appearance of later levels will remove the uniqueness and epicness the skin has to offer.

I repeat, the skin is perfect, the only thing i was disappointed with was the level 1-6 look with the old aether kayle look, i didnt wait for a rework over 5 years to get same kayle skin that i stopped playing before. The NEW KAYLE ROCKS and the aether wing kayle ROCKS even harder, i cannot describe the euphoria i am gaining for seeing a only legendary skin become so epic, which hasnt been the case in many reworks. Thank you riot, thank you.

EDIT: Reasoning behind using the troll word:

I understand the concern about using ''troll'' word, the reason why im using that is they are trying to voice their opinion to reduce epicness and uniqueness the skin has to offer without having or offering any ideas to improve the said unique and epic parts of the skin, to me that isnt voicing a opinion, to me that is straight forward trolling. Everyone can have respectively their own voice and vocal opinion, but if its about making a skin less epic and unique and more of an returning it to pre-rework state which was clearly the primary reason why she is being reworked and changed - is just plain out trolling.

Criticism is not trolling. Just because people have different opinions than you, doesn't mean that they are bashing this because of spite.

And Kayle is dead, but we all know that already.

I expected more from the Aetherwing Kayle. I dislike it and would like the wings to have a fuller shape for the "feather" appearance from the, uh lasers. I really dislike the recall. What I hate most of all is the loss of the glowing sword of blue white fire. I find the upgrades to be lacking as well when compared to better skins like Battleborn and Silver. Granted I am not a Kayle main. I played her a fair bit when I first started in season 4 and have a few skins for her thanks to early mystery gifting abuse. I think her rework looks fantastic and look forward to picking her up as one of my main flex picks. But when I play her I won't be using Aetherwing. I'd really like to swap it out for literally any of her other skins that I do not own. Even pentakill looks better. Sadly Riot has a track record of turning the "best" skin for a champ into the "worst" on champion updates.

Riot reduced the quality of the skin by a wide margin. Please do not buy that trash pile until they put more effort into skins. Its a LEGENDARY skin and it has the base animations! No one is trying to reduce the aspects of the skin, just get Riot to raise the bar on quality. Thats the entire point of VGUs and they cant even be bothered to put new animations into a $20 skin.

Aether Wing is garbage. Every Kayle skin that isnt Silver is garbage.

Many of the posts criticizing kayle isnt criticism, its simply trolling, they are trying to make a kayle different fantasy, and we do not want that as a majority, the aether wing reworked version fulfills extremely satisfying fantasy with the only exception in the early levels where she has the same old look as her pre-rework self which is tad bit weird for me, imagine Reworked Galio using the ugly colours of its older version, Thats what many that i happened to call ''trolls'' seems to desire on the aether wing skin.

I think you misunderstand what the community is trying to voice. If she has to be so different why not make a new skin altogether. Theres no point in deleting an old skin idea (Aether Wing) and replace it with something completely different (Gundam). Please understand that what we want is not the removal of Gundam Kayle. On the contrary, it is something I highly support, it looks awesome! But make it as a new skin, not by replacing a skinline so many people loved.

It seems to me that you didn't even read the posts about which you say it is "trolling". Everyone has their own opinion and everyone has the right to express it. I bought this skin, I really liked it for its refinement and the transfer of the spirit of this visual solution. I already wrote - I don't want to play for the Disteptikon. I don't like its 3-4 evolution. She is NOT Aether Wing. I feel that I got spoiled thing for what I paid. And this is not trolling. This is outrage! People are outraged not by the fact that they made a bad skin, but by the fact that it does not fit what we bought. And this is ADEQUATE! I hope that Riot will hear it. Because you can't do this with the legendary way. Yes, yes, there is also Irelia, Swain and others. But there were not so critical changes. I compared Irelia before and after - yes, her appearance became softer, but she did not move away from the line of skins to which she belongs. Isn't that clear? Thay attach Kayle to Steel series. Okay, but it's not Aether Wing.
