Sejuani frost armor makes a lot of her skins look bad

Wish Rito made more customization for each skin Poro Rider, Beast Hunter, Dawn Chaser, Sabretusk all look silly...

My favourite Sejuani skin Bear Calvary also looks bad, the orange ice looks pretty lame... The explosion from ultimate doesn't look much like an explosion but just orange ice

I'm just parroting a lot of Sejuani players... Seeing the final skins ruined my day.

Edit: Looking at Bear Calvary even more, they just gave a orange overlay to all her abilities :T

They make her skins look utterly horrible, and the worst part is that there was plenty of room to improve them. Make the Tusks of the Sabretusk beast be covered in frost and just some little carving instead of a giant ice blob. Make Dawnchasers saddle a nice golden color, or alternatively make it so the mane goes gold instead. Make the Poro's eyes light up blue and make the scarf change color instead of a giant blue blob. Make beast hunter a nice sea foam green color.

On top of it all, they gave maokai ENTIRELY new VFX for close to everyone of his skins, and Sejuani got nothing. Legitimately feels like the biggest cop out. (I'd like to note that I'm not too miffed that she didn't get new VFX, just that they made her skins look worse, and didn't even try to compensate it with some new VFX on skins like Sabretusk or Dark Rider.)

They should allow people to refund their skins if this goes through. Its a complete downgrade.

TBH the entire rework, from the visuals to the gameplay and even the theme feels massively rushed. I really doubt that it will be received positively at all and I wouldn't be surprised if she ends up in the same boat as Malz. Hopefully Riot does end up reverting this whole rework so that both the visuals and gameplay aren't issues anymore.

I think the new passive looks ok on her default and thats about it. It looks terrible on beast hunter and traditional sej. I don't play her but I can see how people are upset.

Yeah, not sure why I haven't seen a single red response to this. Seems like a legit concern to me. I wish they would at least address it. Since she has it up so much of the time, I feel it's pretty important in game.

Brothers and sisters you are not alone, just go ahead and check "https://youtu.be/zqCldN4RGbA" READ THE COMMENTS, I assure you 100% negative feedback.

OMG what have you done Riot, the spirit of General Stalin will not forgive this, Why downgrade an 1350rp Epic skin and turn it into a recolor chroma pack ? I WANT ANSWERS NOW !!!

I can list at least 3 stuffs they removed from the skin

1.) The glorious Siren SFX when you activate your "W" ability (your whiplash also flashes red during countdown ).

2,) The iconic passive indicator on enemies , when you apply permafrost on enemies telling you that you can slow them down with your "E" ability.

3.) The coil of chains, the previous Sejuani skin used coil of chains to wrap up enemies instead of Orange Ice.

PLS Riot at least listen to our feedback for the third time and get it right, BRING BACK OUR COMRADE BEAR CALVARY SEJUANI OR WE WANT OUR REFUND !!!

I'm devastated over this... Sejuani has always been my absolute favorite jungler and I bought all of her skins save the dinosaur one ): Now I feel like I have all these skins but they're all made super gross looking.... I would hope Riot would put some effort into the visual effects so they don't destroy the champions aesthetic everytime they change up a kit.

Some changes I thought of:

First thing: The icon which hovers over Sej is more than enough for clarity imo so I think the vfx on Bristle can and should be removed.

Second thing are her two oldest skins. (Sabretusk and Darkrider) Both cost 975 and don't change much while at the same time there are 2 750 skins (Beast Hunter and Dankelf (forgot its name lol)) which actually change more (they both have unique R missiles) How can this be? I have some improvements which could make those 2 skins have a better quality.

Sabretusk: Try mud vfx instead of snow and ice. Just change the colour and that's it. Mud can become pretty hard so the ice would also not be a problem.

Darkrider: I always imagined this skin to be a by dark ice corrupted Sejuani, just like Blackfrost Anivia. So why not make her ice abilities to dark ice? Again, just a colour change.

Third thing is her Bear Cavalry skin. I rly like the commie star as passive icon over her. My problem are her SFX though. Her best sfx are just missing. (her old W windup and her old E proc)

I have some ideas where to put them: put the windup sound from her old W on the slow area of her R. Cuz the storm is kinda charging up anyways.

And the E proc could remain on her E, more specifically on her Icebreaker passive. So if the ice is broken by Sejuani it plays her old E proc sfx and instead of this weird orange ice you could use her old E vfx but bigger or brighter.
