Lancer Rogue and Paragon Blitzcrank

I thought i'd make a post just voicing my issues with the Lancer Rogue skin (i only have this one out of the two but i would assume they are exactly the same just different colours)

Now, it's been a while since i've been genuinely excited about a skin. Even after viewing the skin spotlight and adoring the look of these skins. I thought "finally, a decent looking badass skin for blitz". I will not fault how these skins look, they're visually nice and cool concepts for a skin series.

My issue with these skins are the seemingly lack of effort put into the animations of the skins. When i fire the hook, it seems to clip through the enemy and not actually 'work'. I believe this is due to the drill bit being slightly longer than the end of the animation which is slightly frustrating. Additionally, the 'walk' animation... for Hot Rod blitzcrank RIOT took out the wobbly as F*** walk animation because he was on wheels... why couldn't they do the same for this skin considering he FLOATS. The emotes are all the same which i can deal with but some originality for the skin would have been good. All they've done is add a filter to his voice to make it deeper. Some of the skins in a similar price range are MUCH MUCH better for what you pay, Example.. The star guardian skins are in the same price range and they're stunning skins with great particle effects and voice lines to match.

I am in no way asking for a refund.. Just a simple reevaluation of the skin to make it more worth the money i spent on it.

If anyone has any thoughts on the skin please feel free to post them below

They already stated they wont change his walk because of "clarity issues" that testers said he was no longer recognizable due to his lack of wobbly walk.

I was going to do the 2 skins for 1850 deal but if they're too lazy to change the walk even though they were tons of requests, complaints and threads made about it so I'm not buying either of those skins now.

Riot is a company and they need to earn the money they get by putting out high quality products. In my opinion they didn't earn my money with the blitz skins.
