I was tensed up and a little foul tempered when I opened up the client.

I completely forgot there was a patch yesterday, haven't played since last week.

I saw this beautiful login screen and my tension literally melted away.

Thank you Riot, for making this login screen, and for working so hard to make our experience better.

From the Universe tab answering our lore questions to Graves finally getting his cigar, you guys rock.

Were you part of the team that did the animation for Elementalist Lux's login?

Hey! myself and AdamKadamon (the sexy one) were the artists who did animation on this thing. And HugeHugeSword (https://www.artstation.com/artist/sukeart) did the art for it. LilPeanutBrotha is our brother from another mother, doing login screens on the champion side. He is responsible for the dopeness that is Tahm Kench, Assassins, Ivern, Kled, and many others.

@OP Thank you very much for your kind words. This sort of feedback keeps us hungry to create awesome stuff for you guys.

While he doesn't have his Red Name on at the moment, I can confirm speaks the truth!

Don't mean to be intrusive, but why does he lack the much-respected Red Banner?

Ran out of paint. Nobody respects me.

But more likely I need to contact the admins of the boards D:

I think a whole lot of people think bums aren't that cool. They need to learn a lesson.

Awesome, and thank you for replying. The animations are very nice and it's always a pleasure looking for all the little details put into motion.

Hey, do you have an HD version of that art? It looks amazing, I would love to use it as my wallpaper.

BumsAreCool3 votes

Hey, so the artist just told me we haven't released these images officially. Awesome, I just took part in my first Riot leak!

I just had to pull the images I posted here, but you betcha I'll come back and update everything when the skin goes live. Terribly sorry.

TyrekGoldenspear1 votes

That's beautiful!

Even the last one. X)

Mind if I change the linked image in my OP with this one?

BumsAreCool1 votes

Yee go ahead!

TyrekGoldenspear1 votes

Dang dude. If you had to pull the images does this mean I have to change the image I linked in my OP?

Ichiibaru1 votes

I can't wait then. These splashes are some of the greatest pieces of artwork ever put in LoL*[slayer-jinx-wink]*

That is what Janna should have looked like..instead of this naive retard without a personality..pff.

Clearly you don't like Lux. Got sniped by too many lasers?

TyrekGoldenspear1 votes

Bitterness is more like it.

You see he mains Janna, and is practically consumed with the notion that Janna is oversexualized by Riot. (I mean looking at her base skin it's not too hard to see where hes coming ffrom) For some reason he despises SG Janna for this same reason, and I suspect Elementalist Lux's splash is the same kind of classes beauty he wanted in Janna, so now he's salty.

rtbf2256182411 votes

Pretty much but it's a pretty good reason.

rtbf2256182412 votes

Thinking i base my disgust for a champion based on their gameplay is pretty immature. I'd be fine if Riven or Yasuo got skins cuz they actually fit well into almost any theme. Lux does not and she already got a high quality skin that is the SG one. No fucking need for another one.

BladeSingularity4 votes

I was making a joke ... Fine.

But anyway, yes, Lux has a high quality skin. But that's her ONLY high quality skin. Steel Legion is decent, but then she has SEVERAL model-change only skins. Whereas Riven and Yasuo (your examples) have multiple at least good quality, and some high quality (in my opinion) skins.

rtbf2256182411 votes

Knowing how cynical the League community is, taking something as a joke is kind of a lottery.

Anyway,

I was taking a random example. I could use idk, Mundo and Caitlyn as an example aswell. The thing is that Lux's SG skin is a very recent one. Yes 1 year doesn't seem that recent but you must know that Ultimate skins are normally developed for 1 year before they get released. So they basically gave her 2 skins at the same time, 1 of which is an Ultimate. I mean did they not have faith in the SG skin's quality?

Meanwhile, to throw the obvious bias in, Janna's Forecast skin is pretty good but i feel like that's the only Janna skin you can actually call a skin since the others are ridiciulously low quality. Especially Tempest since it makes her appear even more naked and that's a Legacy skin. Pff.

WHY DONT I HAVE IT I'M CRYING

I think they updated the login screen to have the Assassin update login. :(

You know that one week the client swapped between Star Guardians and Ivern? I think this is happening again lol.

I need this skin so bad it's everything I've been waiting for

#Lux main since level 6

TyrekGoldenspear2 votes

I feel you. I've played Lux around the same amount of time.

I've moved on to other midlaners since, but she's always had a special place in my heart.

BladeSingularity1 votes

I literally sacrificed my wallet (ok, maybe not literally) to get RP for this skin ... crossing my fingers that it's out tomorrow.

Oh god ... what if they release it on Thanksgiving ... then clearly Riot has a sense of humor.
