In what world is this Lux?

PBE PREVIEW So about a week ago or more we got this picture on the PBE and people were mostly sure it was Lissandra and if not her then Syndra since they are the only one who have their faces covered. To be frank it is a Lissandra thing and a lot of people recognize her for that but no other champion really beside her has that feature. So today the new skins were revealed and turns out, the picture below is lux.......................................................

EDIT: Still unsure who the artist is but whichever artist did this tho, the person did a horrendous job with this. I will not try to name them despite artists being named when their are is impeccable, they should also be named when there is harsh criticism.

  • Champions have distinct features which should pretty much help the player immediately recognize who it is. This was is just botched.
  • The right side was theorized to be either Evelynn or Kaisa or even Elise.

As we praise the wonderful art of League of Legends we must also show our criticism when the standard has not been reached.

Comparisons Here are some comparisons to other skin icons where we can for the most part tell which champion is represented. https://i.imgur.com/9yPf2qc.jpg[] https://i.imgur.com/r2o4JNq.png[]

That was just a really dirty thing for them to do. When lux uses her R you barely notice that he mask was pulled down. I actually had to look closer to be able to notice it. I was actually excited at the idea of just a regular cosmic or dark star skin of Lissandra. But this was just a slap in the face. Lissandra is literally known for having her eyes covered at that extent. Her lips are even blue like her base! This just made no sense to me and ruined my hype. I just hope this means Lissandra could get a skin for a better theme at some point in the future.

Yeah, I don't see it at all.

Looks more like Lissandra or Syndra to me. If you look at the individual sides, it kind of looks more like Cosmic Queen Ashe and Dark Star Orianna. Don't know how anyone would get Lux from that icon.

Much like the teaser with the giant floating sword somehow being Janna.

New emotes also don't feel like lux to me.

Almost look more like Ezreal...

Of all the champs to give dual skins to, they chose Lux? I'm just going to stick to my 10 form Elementalist skin. If I feel like being dark/blue/purple, that still has me covered.

Velzard of Koz3/3/2020, 6:35:58 PM8 votes

Not to mentoin that her splash is so far from these that this seems like a plain troll

Salvor Hardın3/3/2020, 7:23:25 PM7 votes

This could be an amazing Lissandra vs Elise skins...... instead we got 2 LUX skins?

MrCoWorker3/3/2020, 9:47:47 PM5 votes

fuck you riot this could've been dark star fiddlesticks you fuckers Fiddlesticks

Raiyza3/4/2020, 3:29:05 AM5 votes

Lux has enough skins...

GreenKnight3/3/2020, 7:03:11 PM4 votes

Seems to be a trend with recent skins.

Iron Phantom3/3/2020, 6:40:56 PM4 votes

I honestly thought it was Lissandra and Oriana.

Wordson1x3/3/2020, 11:34:30 PM3 votes

Even worse, the skins aren't even that good. Also RIP Nova Star Lux. That would of been cool

Arcade Lulu3/3/2020, 6:48:05 PM3 votes

Talked to my friend about it, and he said that the icons are Lux after she ults Re-watched the video, and yeah i can kinda see it

I just don't understand why, because she stays in that ult for for such a shot amount of time, Why do we need icons for that?

Sukishoo3/3/2020, 6:54:23 PM3 votes

Just saw it was Lux and it's like WTF are they on? How do you even get lux in that artwork? I get that it's when she ults it changes but still how the hell was anyone supposed to tell that was lux? I literally see Lissandra on the left side, there is no one..NO ONE that looks like that other than her.

ModPeriscope3/3/2020, 6:31:00 PM3 votes

It'll make sense on the TFT galaxies board. (I'm guessing).

Yordle Xayah3/3/2020, 11:38:28 PM3 votes

What I can't believe is that Riot continues to say that they have no favorites. I actually wouldn't mind as much if they just stopped lying and said "Yeah ok. We like Lux, Ahri, Akali and Ezreal for skins more. Deal with it."

LatetotheRace3/4/2020, 12:02:42 AM3 votes

The world in which riot loves cash, and fuckers keep buying lux skins.

Haruchie3/4/2020, 12:09:44 AM3 votes

i have zero clue why that'd be lux when they portray the icon like that, it's literally lissandra. riot trolling us.

VelvetCrotch3/4/2020, 11:24:03 AM3 votes

Would upvote this a thousand times

Kaelramus3/3/2020, 11:46:31 PM2 votes

taking the discussion back to the first icon we saw, lux also pulls her visor(?) down during her dance emotes.

TheCherryPi3/3/2020, 10:31:39 PM2 votes

No mask kindred No mask kindred

C Moon3/4/2020, 8:42:50 AM2 votes

It's supposed to be their mask during ult animation. Riot just baited everyone...

JaxMoonStealer3/3/2020, 11:11:15 PM2 votes

I am not quite sure which individual at Riot made this but I will know later in the day and update you all.

What exactly are you trying to accomplish with this?

Tin Obliterates3/3/2020, 7:17:52 PM2 votes

Apparently it's her ult form.

General Esdeath 3/4/2020, 12:29:45 AM2 votes

For the icon I imagine it's some "dark evil form" where their face is blank, which is their true face.

Terozu3/3/2020, 7:16:00 PM2 votes

I mean, plenty of people identified it as Lux. The structure of her Jaw is a dead giveaway.

ModRowanstar3/4/2020, 4:27:47 AM2 votes

I didn't have an issue with her having one skin but her having two and freaking ROBBING Morde of his legendary is just absolute trash on Rito's part. Screw that fool decision. Ugh I am SICK of Lux. Just stop milking her damn it!

Big Tiddy Fox GF3/4/2020, 5:28:24 AM2 votes

Lux: 12 skins (counting legacy and limited edition skins) Liss: 4 skins Elise: 5 skins (counting Victorious Elise)

And on that icon (judging that this might be an icon), I also thought that'd be a skin for Lissandra and Elise (or Evelynn, but she had a skin already back in december)

In what world would we need yet another two skins for Lux? Elise didn't have a skin since 2017 and Liss since the end of 2018, and here is two skins for a character that already has 12 skins.

But oh well, I guess that's 200 years of experience that we don't understand.

Bevdog1013/4/2020, 10:05:39 AM1 votes

This feels like same thing with Ezreal, shit load of skins, has his own ultimate but Riot thought it wasn't fair that he didn't have a legendary skin.

Sukishoo3/7/2020, 2:47:06 AM1 votes

Unlocked it today, after playing almost a full day of Lux.... And I still don't see it as Lux though.

Pombagira3/4/2020, 6:41:28 AM1 votes

CAN PEOPLE PLEASE STOP BUYING LUX SKINS?? I am so sick of seeing this nasty ass looking bitch getting a new skin every other fucking week. Lissandra or Syndra getting skins would've been perfect! But nooOoOOoo... instead.... motherfucking LUX GETS IT
