Especially items with visible effects. For instance, something that could change the color of the ravenous hydra proc, sunfire cape aoe, the ghost from frost queens, etc. I think this is a market they should try.
ModWulf Helhammer1 votesThose things are a particular effect for a reason.

Colgate Gator1 votesIt'd become much harder to track the visual cues of the items, affecting the clarity, I suppose it's the same reason they don't make skins change the Champions' portraits in the scoreboard and so on.
I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you.
IAintDarius1 votesChampion skins already have things like this in effect. Arclight velkoz is on a different wavelength of color than the base skin. How would someone be stupid enough not to know what a hydra proc is just because it's a different color?
Fondling Gems1 votesIt is still a clarity issue. It is easy to tell what champ is which even with skins, it is harder to tell if that was a talismans or righteous glory proc when a bunch of purple shines around the enemy team.
IAintDarius1 votesRigheous glory doesn't affect the team and talisman doesnt have a cloaking effect. These two items have two different visuals and shouldnt in any way mash together, no matter what. I don't want to change the visual indication. Just how it looks.
Fondling Gems1 votesBut if you see someone running towards you glowing a random colour it can be confusing. It is a clarity issue. Plus it would influence people to buy dumb items because they have skins for them.

You're just talking in circles. If a player is smart enough to understand what a champions ability is despite the skin they use, an item isn't different.
Plus it would influence people to buy dumb items because they have skins for them.
That's irrelevent. People do dumb things all the time in this game. That's no ones fault but their own.
Fondling Gems1 votesW/E We both clearly have differing opinions on this and this discussion is pretty much meaningless anyways. Since this isn't going anywhere for either of us I am going to leave and try to find an interesting conversation elsewhere.
IAintDarius1 votesMy goal is to get as many people to view this thread as possible. Getting it bumped helps me.
Fondling Gems2 votesWelp I will bump it up to 0 for you then.
CYA
GreenLore1 votesThe thing with skins like arclight vel'koz is that the shape of the champ remains pretty much the same.
Also the champion is something that you'll clearly know is in the enemy team from the beginning of the game til the end,while items come later into the game and be sold back.

Hydra's ability is unique to itself. You are not going to find a single item in the game that is like it.

So...?
No seriously, I don't understand how this correlates with clarity. Are you saying someone who sells items to buy a different one confuses people? Could this logic not apply to the current game?
GreenLore1 votesYou know that the enemy has this skin before the game even starts.
You won't know that the enemy has the item skin until he buys the respective item.
Also in general there is the problem that items can be removed entirely from the game.

So?
