Annie, the Dark Child : Hextech vs. Super Galaxy - the problem.
Is it just me, or does the Super Galaxy Annie skin seem very thematically similar to Hextech Annie? IN MY OPINION, it kind of does... I don't know, just wondering if anyone else is thinking this too? I'm NOT hating! I think it looks amazing, Riot has done a fantastic job on the new skins and Evelynn update, and I know it's too late for them to go back at this point. It just sucks that the insanely hard to get Hextech Annie skin will probably be overshadowed by this thematically similar and higher quality skin.
Maybe it's just me, but why would people pick Hextech Annie, the technology themed skin over the easier to obtain Super Galaxy Annie? Which is also technology themed? (Aside from obvious reasons of rarity, Annie one-trick skin collections, ect.)
Well apparently, it's not just me! Below is a post from a North America player named Vhan8765 -> For a link to his original post, click here

Title: Particle Effects for Super Galaxy Annie look too close to Hextech Annie on Q and W?
Maybe I'm crazy and they're different enough apart there's not really a problem, but for me personally the Q and W of Super Galaxy Annie look way too close to that of Hextech Annie.
I get Super Galaxy Annie is still pre-release right now, so hopefully things will be changed a bit, but as of now the colors are just far too similar as well as the shape doesn't really differ much.
Again, I could easily be crazy and be the only person thinking this, but as a frequent user of Hextech Annie I couldn't help but to feel they looked too close even when only first seeing the teaser for the new Super Galaxy skins. Then the pre-release skin spotlight came out and, now I'm here.
Anyone else think they look to close? Am I just crazy?

Here's my suggestion. Turn the particles into the green and purple we see in Elise's respective skin (Super Galaxy). Not blue. This will introduce a new and cool particle color to Annie's skin line while also differentiating the two skins significantly. Please let me know what you think!
