Question @Riot FIDDLESTICKS rework team: re: skin reworks

I noticed Spectral Fiddle was on sale for 260RP and just wanted to see if perhaps any members on the rework team could leak a couple of screenshots (whether or not they're early beta -- or perhaps even concept art) of the new skin.

Urgot's Giant Enemy Crab and Swain's Pirate skins both turned out to be gorgeous, absolute steals for 520rp tier.

If any Rioters who have any info on this would like to share, I would appreciate it. I currently have dark candy and surprise fiddle, but if the new spectral skin is a major overhaul (rather than just a light blue translucent recolour), I'd love to pick it up.

Riot doesn't do recolors anymore. Whatever the skin turns out to be, it will not be just a recolor of the base skin, it will be it's own thing. It might not be of a similar caliber as Bilgewater Swain (which in my opinion, was his best skin pre-Hextech), but it would be safe to assume that it would be a steal at the current price.

Just go ahead & buy it. It's only 260 RP. For all we know, it could become one of Fiddle's best skin.

You know Riot isn't going to purpose leak you things about the rework.

Pretty big yikes that even a moderator came to join the naysayer brigade. Imagine downvoting someone asking if riot would give more information.

Interesting point. A rioter did give me information last time when I asked about a swain skin. But I'm glad you guys know better.

Also, I asked for any info on the skin. Of course the full skin is likely still being developed.

They cannot leak skins or any kind of work they do for Riot as it is all under NDA (non disclosure agreements and can cause serious issues if broken).

As for the skin, they won't go all out anymore like they did in a few of the reworks as they said they want to still keep tiers to their own standards and not confuse people (like seeing Infernal Akali is basically a 1350 for 520, so they won't be going that far anymore unless the skin really demands it). I think his spectral skin will be decent since it is still an early skin for him and they have at least brought them up to decent standards.
