"[Splash art] is always based on the in-game model" -Riot Baconhawk

Meanwhile, Riot drastically changes Ravager Nocturne to match the splash (which isn't even the original splash).

I bought the skin a long time ago because I really dug the jack-o-lantern feel, then they changed the splash art and now with the texture update the skin I bought doesn't exist anymore. I'm not here to talk about which splash is better (I like the old one but it wasn't popular); I've only included the splashes to show what I'm talking about.

Only reason I got this skin was because of the black on his blades and his body, but now it just looks lackluster. What sucks is they won't even refund you when they ruin a skin like they did with this one.

I agree, the old Ravager Noc was creepier looking and I actually thought it was a Harrowing skin when I first saw it. I saw someone on youtube comment saying that this new Ravager Noc is better because the old one looked like burnt wood and this new one looks like clean wood, tf does wood have to do with anything?

Ah yes... The pure downgraded Nocturne model...

I mean, the original looks like it's in higher resolution, let alone much better coloring.

I am also disappointed with the "update" to this skin. I bought it when it was on sale before because i really liked it for the symbiote (Spiderman reference: Venom, Carnage) feel. I actually make myself forget about using Nocturne because Ravager is the only skin I have with him, and whenever I think of playing him, I feel disappointed because of the changes.

Bacon Hawkturne?

lol

why not.

I don't really see the sliver reference if you guys are talking MtG, but I do agree that the OG appears to be better

He still looks like a Sliver to me in his new splash art.
