Star Guardian Poppy complaint.

Sexy Jack Rabbit··1 votes·1,622 views

In regards to the Star Guardian skins revealed, I don't know if I'm the only one really disappointed with Poppys? As much as her Color is meant to be Blue, the abilities lack it entirely, and let's not forget the fact she still retains a lot of her classic assets. Lulu's E is full blown covered in stars and new details, and yet Poppy's Shield (The actual shield, not the buckler) is basically the classic with glitter. The Q indicator (The circle around the star) is just her classic.

She has a lot of particles to work with in regards to other Melee champs. Basically, the Poppy skin is nowhere near worth 1350 right now, and for the current skin standard It's pretty disappointing.

Poppy's new character is meant to revolve around the Hammer, but to be honest, everyone is more interested in the Yordle holding it. So it would be appreciated if she could get a little more love.

I mean even Lulu and Janna, who's thematic focuses a lot on themselves, got a lot of work done on their Pix and Zephyr respectively. Whereas Poppy received basically nothing, perhaps a new Taunt animation? With Poppy having full facial rigging, anything is possible.

My other suggestions. Q AOE and anti-Dash zone could be a lot more blue to match the color scheme. The E trail needs to be a dark blue, being she is the only champion currently in the SGU with a dash, I feel like it's a really good opportunity to make her E resemble a shooting star. The ultimate needs adjustments, It just feels like another re-texture.

as a poppy main i will be getting this skin regardless but i can't help agreeing that it did feel lackluster after the initial joy of getting the skin

That's exactly how I feel about it. "Oh cool Poppy is finally getting a new skin!" And it was pretty disappointing. But like we have a choice, not really that I main her, or play her much. Just that her skin is very lackluster/

I felt the same way about Sion's new skin.

Honestly it's hard to live up to hype.

As much as it is about living up to hype, it's not like they hyped these skins up at all (Minus the leak). It's just about meeting average expectations.

Poppy's skin didn't even have any hype behind it, and they still failed.

I consider the fanart hype because of how a Rioter reacted and because I was desperate for that skin to happen.

As much as Fan-art can be hype, it's not quite official. We recieved Teasers for the Sion Skins, whereas the Star Guardian Teaser could have been any champion.
