Star Guardian Jinx is wonderful....out of combat

So I love everything about Jinx's new legendary skin - the VO, the colors, the emotes and movement animations - except for when she's actually in combat. It's cool that the creatures around her turn into her guns but the animation for firing them is pretty much just the boring classic animation and the guns themselves are lacking magic; they look more like something a cosplayer would make than genuine magical weapons. The projectiles themselves also just look like slightly star-ified versions of her classic bullets and rockets.

I know Star Guardian Jinx isn't going to be completely redone or anything, but some tuning on the particle effects to look more different from her normal effects and adding some pizzazz to the weapons and animation of firing them would be much appreciated. I worry that this skin will be underwhelming like Dark Star Thresh which felt more like Grape Thresh than an entirely new concept.

Actually there are differences in the attack animations. Mainly the minigun. The way she moves with the recoil of the gun is most notable
