@riot discussion on new wukong skin
Hello riot. I am an avid wukong player, maining him for a number of seasons. The Lancer Stratus Wukong skin, in general, is nice. However, the skin itself feels TOO general. This doesn't feel like "wukong". With the spear instead of staff, the nondescript face, and the dull colors of the skin, it feels like many of the characteristics of wukong were taken away to make this skin. For this skin, it would've been better with a much more descriptive face (like a samurai mask), the spear being a broad double sided glaive would've been neat, and some of the gold tones of the skin to be brighter in general. Summoners rift is very matte, making the skin itself look quite dull as it is also matte. The particle effects I really do like, especially for the E (who wouldn't like rocket boosters?). I do wish there was a more noticeable Q animation (a color switch would be nice, or a change in the staff size, to indicate increased range, maybe a brighter blue). Another minor quibble is that not many wukong skins do anything with the ult which feels like a large design space that could be added to. The ultimate feels less "wow, amazing!", and more "monkey is spinning". Thank you for reading!
