All these years and the idea of making a legendary Anivia skin a fire phoenix hasn’t occurred to riot.

[@someoneinsomewhere8079]

All these years and people still don't understand they are absolutely unwilling to waste any resources into a champion they're not sure will sell well.

[@Oscar97o]

An ice phoenix, without the ice.

[@GenusMusic]

While the idea seems like a "adoy" it is already kinda exactly what she is. I don't see this being a better legendary than her Blackfrost which is lore related. Anivia being an ice phoenix is already an inversion of the classic fire Phoenix, so removing that difference would make Anivia less interesting imo.

[@fhitsu8909]

@@Oscar97o This joke loses all its merit when you think about the fact that a "legendary" skin would also have changed voice lines. That's the whole point of a Legendary skin. To change the theme of the character altogether Just like Blackfrost Anivia isin't about peaceful harmony anymore And I don't see anyone complaining about Papercraft Anivia still being ice-themed, except for some model and vfx changes. If Riot tried to make an epic or lower tier skin of that sort, without changing the voice lines, just like they've done with the Infernal skinline - save for Nasus, obviously - then ye, that'd make no sense either

[@fhitsu8909]

@@GenusMusic I see your point, but I'd still argue that it'd be interesting to see a Legendary tier conversion of Anivia to a "regular" phoenix, for anyone who misses the original concept of the mythological creature, or simply would like to see her executed as such, to which group I personally belong Whether it'd sell or not is a whole other issue

[@danieljakistam9409]

I prefer this instead of 10 "asian" type of skins. Also it's classic swap skin which I like the most.

[@poisson7937]

this is like the Ruination skin line, but instead of Shadow Isles aesthetic we have Brand aesthetic. Brand is the ruined king of the infernal skins

[@autisonm]

Damn that Ashe skin is really sad because they could have easily done something slightly more inspired like having an obsidian theme to work off of. You know, obsidian, the glass-like volcanic rock thats really sharp and was often used for arrowheads?

[@bulletcola7890]

Make Ashes E rain actual ash, kind of like a pun?

[@whichhunter7087]

Imagine if she was mostly obsidian and as her q starts to accelerate she starts glowing and then is set on fire with full AS

[@justmazen3168]

[@trishamayacielo657]

For some reason i forgot Ashe had a bow and i though when did Varus get boobs

[@darkbestpro3089]

Ashe is still alright cuz she gets so many skins so everybody will just forget this one, but what about olaf? He gets like 1 skin every 2 years and olaf mains just got a cheap knockoff XD

[@loup1262]

that's the 1:1 result of firing so many people in so many teams to have external contractors do the work the fired employee did.

[@Lalyyee]

They should use AI, it'd turn out better 💀

[@Pringol02]

the only thing we hate more than this skin is the new fucking champ mastery

[@jamiesadf5829]

i straight up cant even tell what im looking at with the new champ mastery thing. its just such a generic mobile game kind of thing that i literally cannot tell what mastery the person who is flashing it has

[@vel306]

that pisses me off more because no one was asking for that, there is so much players want updated and changed but they decide that cheapening the look of the champion mastery is what they want to do

[@anubis7457]

@@vel306I assume the Chinese playerbase complained.

[@moonlitspider2827]

And the lack of being able to see my mastery points on the loading screen. I could deal with the champ mastery icon, but that royally pissed me off.

[@turtwig2grottle]

What gets me is the fact that I was motivated to play champs to get those S tokens and become Lv 7, both as a way to show some sign of mastery and because that blue was gorgeous. But now I have no care to play anything but Arena. I would purposefully play different champs to collect mastery on them all and become better at many different playstyles. Now, there’s no reason to play anything other than 2-3 if I just want to win

[@sacarymoviesamu]

They could have release INFERNAL URGOT LEGENDARY. He uses ult, he goes from RED FIRE TO BLUE FIRE AND WHITE COLORES ABILITIES, BECAUSE WHITE IS THE HOTTEST COLOR OF FIRES. HE IS SO BEAUTIFUL I LOVE YOU URGOT

[@locopsychodude]

This guy gets it

[@chaotik900]

No , please no, I rather have urgot into lazy ass Mecha skin that's just a chorma of battcast than have shitty infernal. I want demon urgot where his stomach is mouth that's eats people. Fright is one of his best , crabgod is hard to top.

[@trishamayacielo657]

They fired only people who arent important like Quality assurance and the vfx department to save money But the budget is still the same oh yeah the executives gave themselves a raise after all the money they saved by firing them

[@MrIljuha2000]

Reusing assets for karma but in orange: YES! raaiooooot

[@Metallix37]

I understand why Skyen hates these skins so much, like occasionally there are good ones but as a whole, you can tell Riot actively avoids putting effort into them, which is a shame because the skinline could be so good with just the smallest effort

[@MrIljuha2000]

Yeah, you can either go Ashen Lord Asol route, or Infernal Nasus one. They chose Akali instead...

[@Loliston]

It's really tedious how infernal for them apparently means "character on fire" when even them already explored the concept with more creativity with Teemo, Fizz and Nasus

[@Snarflez]

@@Loliston Devil Teemo and Fizz is a different skinline 🙄

[@Loliston]

@@Snarflez Well, they convey the theme "infernal" far better Feels like how Fright Night is miles ahead of bewitching regarding Halloween for me, at least the ideias feel new, interesting and creative

[@ndt7379]

This isn't the first time either. Riot has had a looooong history of trying to churn out cheap skins and refusing to make proper changes based on feedback. Remember MF's ultimate? The main reason why they never reworked it before release is because the splash art, live 2D animations (login screen), animated trailer, and everything else was already finished before they even put it up on PBE. They had decided the skin was finished before ever letting the community judge it, so we just had to accept it. Then there's the Mordekaiser rework, where they outright refused to put budget into his skins getting proper VFX, even those within the tier that REQUIRED it having that. Imagine the community telling a game company that they can't just rework skins they purchased to have less than what they originally did, and still refuse to fix them. It took one Riot employee to create the effects on his own time for them to just say "okay, sure. Add them into the game". There's a laundry list of them just being lazy, scummy, or out of touch and refusing to go back on mistakes. Like Necrit said, the only Infernal skins that were ever liked were Infernal Nasus, Zyra, and Diana's. The last two only being praised due to them being better than those around them at the time.

[@Plight_]

I'm still mourning the death of mastery emotes

[@ruruisu]

I want to point out for Necrit that Riot doesn't really make 975RP skins anymore, 1350 is the new baseline and it shouldn't be seen as premium. These skins are proof of that.

[@igorporfiirio4915]

Makes sense, but also makes sense that people don't like when prices go up.

[@goblinslayer5404]

yeh, these "basic" skins in a moba are €11 🗿

[@user-yi6no6ov1p]

Inflation 🥲

[@Relevart9169]

Yeaa no, u can't sell products of VERY different quality for the same price and expect ppl to accept it. How can a skin for 10$ have a different home guard, different effects and animations but then another skin for 10$ is a recolor of base?

[@nicoach1817]

they made the arcane skins

[@Relevart9169]

40 east asian skins, 3 project skins, gas station puddles and now infernal? Holy sh* this year is smth else

[@nomoretwitterhandles]

To be fair... I kinda like the gas station puddles 😂 And the Eastern skins are pretty at least. But some of these newer skins are so utterly boring. The new infernal line should have stayed in the past. I wish they'd bring back the more unique skins, like the "Definitely Not" line, or the band skins (minus the weird tweets).

[@Seroxm13]

​@@nomoretwitterhandlesthe Infernal skin line has always been boring. Nothing new. I have Infernal Amumu and Diana and they are trash.

[@viktoriaschmied6627]

​@@Seroxm13Amumu is not that bad. Diana is just old, the skin got released when most were about the level of a recolour. And she did not have the extra Vfx like Zyra's plants to do something more. So for it's age and what it's constraints were, it's really okay. But it is indeed a skinline that did not age well, they have so much more tools and freedom these days. Either they redo the whole base concept of infernal, or they'll just put it to rest

[@Seroxm13]

@@viktoriaschmied6627 Amumu's head should be flamey, just looks so weird and bad like this. His ult and abilities VFX are so subtle. Diana is a little better, but still not a good skin. I used them all the time cause it's the only skins I have with them.

Look's like, more Volcanic Skin than a "infernal"

[@petty2579]

the color is more cheeto dust and crumbs tbh - like the skins are lackluster as heck but whats worse is they couldnt even translate the splashart into the game models. Ashe doesnt have fiery hair it's just normal hair for example. And none of it looks like fire on their bodies it's just orange

[@Demoninst]

Best fucking reply

[@gameslacker2711]

tbh, in a fantasy game like this, when someone says "Infernal" the first thing that comes to my mind is Hell and demons, not fire and volcanic

[@IzanamisBurden]

All of their funding and effort went into the Empyrean skins

[@johnenego2498]

the crazy part is diana’s skin was linked to an in-game ice vs fire event that decided which element skin she got… like i don’t think it was intended to go this far😭 and infernal akali wasn’t even a skin it was the updated crimson akali :s

[@ButterGolemASBFan69420]

Infernal Diana was released in S6

[@ventrue7]

I main zyra since s3 and it still looked terrible back then. The quality difference between wildfire and haunted, her next skin was huge.

[@whitediamond8507]

Love the high noon recall on the infernal skin for Ashe. Took me a second to realize, but looking at them side by side they're almost identical.

[@kevinthedot]

It's funny how something like "Infernal Bel'Veth" would have actually gone over better. At least she doesn't have many skins to compare to.

[@Solobuddy]

How about infernal Milio

[@JCTheToonist]

Infernal Brand. Just Brand but with 1% extra fire. The only reason why that skin hasn’t been released yet is because he’s THAT good.

[@Seroxm13]

But then people would be pissed that she finally got a skin, but for 1 of the most boring and generic skin lines... Let skin lines like this be fillers for champions who already have a lot of skins.

[@EC___]

It's hated because everything comes in a soulless industrial cash-grab packs just for the sake of a schedule. In the legacy days, skins were unique and tied to champions identity... Now they release it in generic packs (because of money), instead of taking a careful look at individual champions and releasing it dynamically. To paint a picture of the problem: For example, you know the skin Sultan Tryndamere? Imagine now 100+ champions having the same skin line/theme, *regardless of champion identity, uniqueness or if it even looks good.* The reason the skin Draven Draven is good, is not because of the quality but because it's unique and it fits perfectly, many such cases.

Theres so many wasy avenues for infernal skins aside from the demon route You have volcanoes, spiritflames (like the one-off brand skin) and even some hearthblood could be cool

[@ags8507]

ashe skin splash art: fiery flame hair ashe skin model: play-doh hair

[@Digbigbombig]

That history lesson at the start was like watching a tiktok on aliens and ancient giants

[@Dantesama_25]

Hw many fire themed skins are they going to make before they run out of champions

[@LordCrimson78]

You’re my ASMR …. Love your vids! Never go away!

[@seryivera2322]

i'm sure the ashe skin has the particles of another skin recolored, looks like hearts from the heartseeker come from her pasive

[@Bakizel]

12:05 The people who were originally tackling that are no longer involved (fired, quit, promoted, moved to another team, etc.). Riot also has no continuity and they probably did forget about that article.

[@TeronGore]

Still waiting the ashe visual update so any skin other than project and high noon is playable

[@JonborgVA]

Oof that last pun did indeed burn

[@mrprongles9510]

Was the missiong outline of the "one" in "1350" intended? :D

[@jacobhagelqvist7037]

A flaming elk skull on infernal ashe would just feel like high noon

[@darkumineru1681]

1:28 i dont know what champion but its ok if its morgana or karma? dont know if its for them but maybe? cant tell what the ones before where olaf? trundle? darius? ashe? vayne? 3:00 ok its shit...

[@lucastinevez8171]

You should check out what the Varus mains are saying about the recent “legendary” skin.

[@ItzWan]

Been watching you for 7 years now. Would love to create shorts for your videos to get more exposure!

[@vladutmihai1705]

The joke at the end... I'm fucking crying of laughter 🤣🤣🤣

[@Gerivassius_II]

Ngl, when I saw Olaf's skin I thought it was a meme on the bug where glacial Olaf would just be forever orange after ulting 😂

[@johanstenfelt1206]

Huh, i wonder what was happening behind the scenes for this one?

[@oniadapt]

I can't decide if I get back on League to get Victorious Sona or not 😭

[@123FireSnake]

this is much more entertaining since it turned into a spectator sport with the vanguard roll out for me :D

[@abayal5814]

THAT BURN CAME OUTTA NOWHERE LIKE A LEFT HOOK GOOD SHOW!

[@Awesome1914]

Infernal Varus recall still bugged after all these years? The backing animation sound is like 10x louder than any other.

[@gasaiv578]

I always just assume these types of skins are to get newer employees comfortable with the in-house style/process. I wanna know which artists worked on them

[@Sonoflear]

You said the Karma recall was different and didn't have the rocks..... look again but slower.. they show up at the end lol

[@anipie4854]

"Highnoon Ashe but burnt" got me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@TapuL]

5:38 remember that China has a fairly strict policy on skulls and corpses, though maybe they could have done something similar

[@jelleluyten5017]

I would grab the Ashe skin if i roll it in the gacha, it looks pretty neat and i definitely enjoy it more than the high noon theme

[@sandved5135]

My biggest surprise is that I thought Empyrean was the skin line that replaced inferal for some reason

[@maniacletsplays2230]

I really liked the Ashe-Skin.. And when you mentioned the High Noon I knew why.. Ive got the High Noon Skin and the Infernal just looks like an cheaper Version of that.

[@omgodification]

The neverending story i guess Can't wait for infernal brand
