All of these do an excellent job of capturing Twitch's manic personality in one way or another, and it's great to see.

Also that Gangster Twitch face is so hilarious! I love it!

Virgin RayNov 1, 20164 votes

He's smiling in every splash art, just like Ziggs

JerulEonOct 31, 201615 votes

Medieval looks the most badass out of all of them. I feel like Gangster Twitch looks a bit too creepy for my tastes but 10/10 overall. SO excited for these!

GoronMuncherVNov 1, 20162 votes

At least Gangster retains Twitch's crazy character, unlike a certain current splash art... ;)

blackfootedfoxOct 31, 20168 votes

I love them all, I want them all, I WANT MEDIEVAL TWITCH MORE THEN EVER NOW

ArakadiaOct 31, 20163 votes

SAME! Medieval Twitch is awsome.

blackfootedfoxNov 1, 20161 votes

honestly my favorite parts of the vandal splash are the lollipop, stuffed bear, and molotov cocktail

Hey Reav,

I don't know if you're the right Rioter to be talking to, but will we see any Twitch skins that change Twitch's particle effects? Looking at green bolts and rat skulls gets a bit boring after a while... 8 skins but no changes other than the machine gun noise on Gangster. Riot pls give us Twitch mains a skin to show off.

blackfootedfoxNov 1, 20161 votes

we can always hope

DwarvenGiantOct 31, 20167 votes

These are so incredibly beautiful and amazing. Really makes me wanna main Twitch once again. <3

Anyways, love the styles. I wonder who did Gangster Twitch's splash. :o

RiotReav3Nov 1, 201619 votes

Our outsourcing partner Izzy Medrano worked on Gangster Twitch and HUGEnFAST finished it up. Izzy was also the artist on Hextexh Sion.

I'll pay you 10000000000000000000000000000000000000 Rabadon's Deathcaps if you can please tell me that Karma will be soon.

RiotReav3Nov 1, 201618 votes

Sadly I wouldn't expect Karmas anytime soon. We are all hands on deck for Warwicks massive skin catalog now. We likely won't start Karma until after that.

On the RPG splash arts: Why is Sejuani getting the sub-par treatment again? Given her character and role, she should have been in the front and the focus of this splash art, as the other two are characters that hide behind/are protected by her. Instead, it looks the other way around. She doesn't even get her own portion of the splash art, having to literally share half of it with Jayce, while the other get their own portions, devoid of anyone else, and get to be the focus of it. I wouldn't even be able to tell Sejuani was the focus of her own portion if you didn't blue out Jayce - and consequently blur literally 3/4's of her in the process. She's also of very obvious lower quality; just look at the loading screen slice. It's bland, blurry, and her face just looks awkward and flat. She should have some more emotion there.

Come on, Reav3. Once (Beast Hunter) was bad, but twice in a row now? Anyway you guys can try and fix that?

RiotReav3Nov 1, 20163 votes

Sorry you will have to talk to someone on skins team. I don't really have enough knowlege on skins team splash art to give insight into this. I personally think that splash is pretty awesome though.

CorriandrNov 1, 20162 votes

My mistake about your job then, sorry. Sadly, the skin team is keeping silent and now showing themselves on the boards. Still, while the Splash Art is objectively of decent quality, the fact that you can't see the problem of a repeated issue occurring twice to the same character - shoved to the background, placed in a role opposite of what they do in the game, blurred out, and being of a lower quality than the others (probably because they were regulated to the background)- bodes poorly.

WyrmbladeNov 1, 20169 votes

I think the reason she's in the background of so many splashes is that she always has a big ass mount that will obscure the other champions if she's in the foreground.

It's the same reason tall people stand in the back in group shots.

EeyoreNov 1, 20162 votes

Agreed.

Her whole splash art looks blurry to the extent that I thought Surrender@20 had accidentally uploaded the centered splash version that's used in the Updated Client, rather than the store version of the artwork. Even Bristle is blurred out! Like, I can live with her being in the background due to how big she is - but at least make Bristle focused! (Although given the use of layers, I'm not sure why Jayce's layers weren't just hidden in her splash art).

DecritNov 1, 20162 votes

I think that herself and the mount are well represented.

But yeah, she gets covered a bit too much. While in the full splash art might be ok for her, in the loading screen they could clean her up a bit.

AlbertoplusNov 1, 20161 votes

Do you think it will still be possible to release him before the end of year?

RiotReav3Nov 1, 201611 votes

He should be out sometime after the next new champion.

Jeddy017Nov 1, 20161 votes

So I assume that's a no on being released before the year end.

WarWorkNov 1, 20165 votes

i think there is still a small chance though but it would have to be December. Following usual patch cycles, we can assume that the new champ will be next PBE patch (2 weeks from now) the earliest and then maybe Warwick the following two weeks.

It might be even more delayed if we dont get any teasers for the new champ in the upcoming week or so.

TNHA BaritoneNov 1, 20162 votes

You were honest so I give you all of the deathcaps

SpecterVonBarenNov 1, 20161 votes

Does he have a tumblr/deviantart/facebook/ect. page we could go to to see more of his work?

RiotReav3Nov 1, 20164 votes

Sure does. You should be able to find his work by looking up his name, Izzy Medrano, or under CannibalCandy.

DwarvenGiantNov 1, 20162 votes

Ohhhh, I see now! Izzy has a really unique style!

HUGEnFAST's got an amazing style as well. His work and style have always been very inspiring (and intriguing) to me. ;D

BigTNov 2, 20161 votes

His work looks awesome and I can't wait to see you guys finish work on past visual updated champs splashes. Ones I can think of off the top of my head are Alistar Gangplank Garen Karma MasterYi Nasus MissFortune TwistedFate Singed Sivir Sona Soraka

Keep up the good work!

the weeabooOct 31, 20165 votes

I AM A TWITCH MAIN BUT MY WALLET CANNOT AFFORD TO BUY THE BUNDLE WHEN IT COMES OUT PLEASE HELP

Nos If only we could get some skin that actually changed some particles...

GoronMuncherVNov 1, 20162 votes

I dream every day of a Twitch skin with particle changes :(

GrReaper96Nov 1, 20164 votes

My inner furry is screaming......

FritterzOct 31, 20163 votes

BUT WHERE HAS THE GANGSTER TWITCH NOSE GONE!?

CookyPrinceNov 1, 20163 votes

Shame how a majority of twitch skins are just bad in game

WeatheredOct 31, 20162 votes

I'm pretty sad that Whistler Village Twitch is different. I really liked the old splash, even if it was ugly.

MyNameAintNickOct 31, 20166 votes

The splash for that skin didn't properly represent the ingame model.

In the splash he has a golden crossbow and propeller hat, but not in game.

Kinda disappointed me after getting the skin, and seeing the model be different from the splash.

At least it's accurate now.

GoronMuncherVNov 1, 20162 votes

So good. Now my gangster Twitch will actually look like Twitch again ;D

IceKingChernobogNov 1, 20162 votes

Oh yes, these splash arts for my main rat man. I wonder if Medieval twitch will come in the bundle when this is released?

Chembaron YamadaNov 1, 20162 votes

I need to know too.... I hate that I missed the opportunity to get this skin, even more after seeing this awesome splash. Give us some information pls. :<

RiotReav3Nov 1, 20167 votes

All but medieval will be in the bundle.

ABlueQuakerNov 1, 20164 votes

Any news on whether there will be a new system that allows players to get Medieval Twitch? I heard Riot was gonna change the way players could get it after they reworked the referral system.

WulfyNov 1, 20164 votes

Boo.. no That'd be like Victorious Jarvan coming back. Or UFO Corki.

JunkοNov 1, 20162 votes

IMO it should stay as an old player exclusive. it an Grey Warwick are the only keepsakes I have outside of Summoner icons, would be sad if they got released again.

ABlueQuakerNov 2, 20161 votes

No. Most of the players that got it either used bots to level accounts, or bought it off rare skin websites (who got it from players who used bots to level accounts). Fact of the matter is that by the time most of us joined the game, it was because the game was already huge - word of mouth wasn't necessary to attract players. I started in Season 2 and by the time I found out the referral system existed, all of my friends were already playing that game.

JunkοNov 2, 20161 votes

So? UFO Corki, King Rammus, etc were all given for literally free and they are unavailable now. So why should Medieval Twitch come back?

ABlueQuakerNov 3, 20161 votes

Because Riot never intended for it to be hard to get, and it was never meant to be for the original LoL players - that's what UFO Corki and King Rammus were for.

ArnoldSchwarzensNov 1, 20162 votes

Medieval looks like a Skaven from Warhammer.

Excuse me, Age of Sigmar ofc.

PlacentaNov 2, 20161 votes

@Reav3, On the PBE, the new Medieval Twitch splash art doesn't use the legacy border. It currently uses the old Medieval splash art with the legacy border. I just thought I should let you know. Other than that I love the new splashes, especially Gangster!
