Nature is healing, a monster champion received a Legendary skin... THERE IS HOPE YET.

[@Auditore_2023]

Well, hope dies last) And we wish that it survives

[@tenderandmoist5011]

Better yet, a monster champ that got turned into a human got turned back into a beast Yippee

[@TheCrazierDiamondz]

My question is about this is sense Amumu is a mummy. Is he seen as a monster champion? Just wanted to check about that. Fairly new to the community. But I can already say this. JUSTICE FOR MONSTER CHAMPIONS!

[@butterfreedom5357]

​@@TheCrazierDiamondz I mean mommys are heavily associated with cursed undead unable to go to heaven so it's pretty obvious. Now Amumu the registered character I think the League brand sees him as cute lil emo kid and that's it

"Our first monster champ to get a proper legendary skin since Skarner, nearly a decade ago." Man that was the last love Riot had for my boy, and he'll never get any ever again.

[@Auditore_2023]

Maybe after his VGU. There is still a hope breathing in dust. But still alive)

[@sspectre8217]

There’s hope with the VGU, I think after Asol they finally learned that if you give fun approachable kits to monster champions they can also be popular

[@x-nimator9997]

I hope the VGU will change things.....IF IT EVER COMES OUT. RIOT COME TF ON IT'S BEEN 3 YEARS ALREADY WHAT'S THE HOLD UP

Darius and graves seriously make no sense in this skinline

[@luizotavio44]

ah yes porcelain the fragility does go well with big axe and guns

[@Radical.J]

Darius came out, or was "born" in 2012, the last year of the dragon. But let's give him the tiger zodiac lol

[@gabrielwiroski]

graves is one of the most popular junglers in CHINA and Korean since his rework.... they will make a asiatic theme skin for him some day

[@TigerKirby215]

This entire Lunar New Year felt like they were just dumping out skins for "popular champion XD" with a handful of skins for more obscure characters. Primal Ambush was all popular characters, Heavenscale was all popular characters (and Smolder), and now we have Graves, Darius, Miss Fortune, Irelia, Morgana, and A.Sol (and also Prestige Kindred) where only one of them fit this skinline. (It's A.Sol btw. A.Sol is the only good one... Prestige Kindred is also okay.) Like we couldn't have gotten a skin for Alistar (Ox + "Bull in a China Shop" lol), Olaf (Goat), Twitch (Rat), or Rell (Horse)? Like not all of these are great but certainly we could've had more champions instead of "the ones that sell well in China."

[@ninacochrane569]

omg, Rell is a perfect fit for this line! Why has she not been selected for this line?! A porcelain horse that becomes a chunky *inflexible* armour made of pottery?? I'd actually play Rell for that.

[@jamiesadf5829]

my favorite part is that most of the skins have better versions that appeal more to chinese audiences, so why even bother with most of the choices they went with? It would have been cool if they treated the line like they did the Arcana skinline where each champ is one of the things, but no riot is bad at doing cool stuff now

[@wuj0-themanthemyththelegen856]

Alistar got that exact skin in 2021 xd

[@lili.-.9243]

riot just gotta make a chinese zodiac skinline

[@dieptrieu6564]

@@jamiesadf5829 Because that's not what the chinese people think, lol. Lunar new year is practically the most important holiday there, and porcelain is pretty much a signature of chinese culture, of course these skins gonna sell like hot cake there.

[@CptApplestrudl]

You know what you could have done with this ? Orianna! Just a porcelain doll. Talking about doll, how about Gwen? That would fit. OR Syndra or Mundo porcelain skins? You know just throw and smash everything!

[@scoutscode1122]

now i want to see syndra or mundo with the loudest smashing pots sfx on every ability

[@remitsu9715]

i was rewatching a bunch of the Rapid-Fire-Skin review videos and i'm glad there is a new one uploaded so i have more to watch :D

[@phoenixflamegames1]

I really like most of the (old) porcelain skins. I really like the blue white colour combination and the spell effects. What I DONT like is when they randomly throw in champs and fuck up everything about them (like the kindred mask).

[@sinagwantsanap6598]

in addition to your comment regarding aurelion sol's voicelines being cut completely in half, as someone who mains irelia i was shocked to see how much she lost voicelines-wise in mythmaker. in her default and epic skins, she has lines for grouping/moving as a team, surviving the teamfight, setting up a gank, and so much more. in her non-epic skins, she has a few unique voicelines per skin too. mythmaker irelia has so much less and seeing how other champions are getting the same treatment with their legendaries and how new champions come out with less lines than older champions feels like quite an upset, even more so now after the layoffs of the creatives.

[@TekharthaMondatta]

Theres an artist on reddit who's been mocking up black and white rubberhose cartoon skins and it really makes me want that aesthetic explored in-game

[@667Monarch]

Cheers to the editor, absolutely insane job. Very nicely put together, really funny to watch with subtle memes that blend perfectly with the video rythm and ideas. Thanks for the amazing content !

[@umomo1947]

Since a monster champ gota grain of love this year I hope they do a monster-exclusive line. My idea would be called "cafe cuties?", an April Fools line where the maids are all monsters like rek'sai, cho'gath, fiddlesticks, etc. doing the opposite of what a maid should be.

[@JoeGuyWhosThere]

Artist for the Irelia splash has had to defend herself from a lot of toxicity because of her piece. She posted on her twitter her references and it included the WR irelia base model which might explain a lot cause base leagues irelia model sure is different from WR. Her twt is Aizukie

[@akaii7787]

All the skins this year have felt so samey and as someone who didnt like dragonmancer, going into primal ambush, going into heavenscale, going into porceline its felt like the biggest drought ever for skins

[@necroviolet]

I would have loved to see porcelain Ornn, where instead of a blacksmith he was a pottery maker. Really there's over a dozen champs who could have fit this skin line better than the ones they chose

[@stellasilverr]

not to mention he'd fit the goat zodiac

[@fliphrrr]

I still find odd that people criticized Kindred's original Porcelain skin by showing only closeups and smears of a model that should've look from above. But I'm pleasantly surprised that her prestige version doesn't suck and fits the original skinline. Same face syndrome of female champions aside, I would like if Irelia looked more like the splash art. I think the skin color is too yellow and doesn't blend well with the palette of the overall model.

[@ShenobiYT]

Welcome back editor

[@ocanhaTheEditor]

:)

[@assumptio7595]

I laughing my ass off this editing those "FOUR!!!" just 😂😂😂

[@ankapartizanka6827]

Tbh Aurelion looks nice, but I don't get any "porcelain" feel out of the skin? Like, at all? He is just blue and white, he is flowy, his whiskers are flowy, everything feels very liquid and mobile. There are no porcelain parts to him at all. He doesn't feel breakable, which I could understand in context of him being a mighty being, but I feel that even trying to make him look more like dragons depicted on china bowls (less aetheral and losing the golden hue) would have helped. Maybe I'm the only one, but I honestly expected more. If you told me this skin was Heavenscale, I'd probably believe it.

[@killermkl2222]

So.. we're not saying that Renekton (whom I think it's also a monster champion?) has a legendary skin as well? (PROJECT); or he's not from that category?

[@O_Koshinha]

[@ant_1_ita363]

enzo_spagnulo Soraka's fan art so so fucking good, wow

[@Кожуркаотпомидора]

2:31 Here I think the problem is also that Darius is kinda... TANKY champ. While porcelain is pretty FRAGILE stuff. TANKY champ in thematics pf something FRAGILE. I am surely not the only one, who sees a mismatch.

[@lolneenx]

Personally I love the theme of Porcelain I just wish they chose better champions that can actually fit the skin line vs just popular champions (since the ones who actually fit look great!)

[@wakkawakkagaming3710]

What'll we get first, the next monster legendary or the literal heat death of the universe?

[@Deaconator2000]

Darius looks like a mobile legends game. Morgana splash is legit a hextech one. Irelia is Gwen X Camille

[@multimus133]

Bro EDG Graves was for Flandre who won worlds in 2021 with the skins coming out in early to mid 2022. That’s more than a year ago my guy both DRX and T1 have won worlds since then XD

I haven't been fond of new skins for a long time except the really creative ones like space groove or cafe cuties. Most of the time, I question why they made this skinline and they make a second lineup, or they force every popular champ into it like both heavenscale and porcelain now

[@the_dindon]

as an old Sol main, this skinline is only pain and regret 😢

[@xXEndermanManXx]

Calling graves’ cape his most defining feature is insane. I hardly ever even notice the cape. His shotgun is quite literally his most defining feature

Im confused about the latest project L vid where it was mentioned they got a ton of new staff on board for it right after the layoffs

Oh and a funny face.... Haha....

so true that asol skin is so dog water i can't; even mecha feels more legendary (albeit a bit ugly) with the little squadron joining asol in his W

[@devinjacquet5253]

[@WolfBergMenace]

They shouldve just doubled down on the sound design and put the metal pipe falling on every ability in this skin line Shyvana being left out of the DRAGON themed Zodiac skinline is odd though, imagine if in the year of the Rooster Anivia or Xayah and Rakan would just not be included

[@Estesujeto_en_youtube]

Oh boi i cannot wait fot the next chinese lunar new year where we get 7 kaisa skins. 3 ezreal ones. 4 irelias that don't look like irelia AT ALL (one with an exclusuve splashart for china) and absolute ZERO champs that fit the actual skinline

[@leonard5426]

Here's an idea: A skinline based on Genderswapped Greek Mythology: Illaoi as Hercules, instead of Tentacles she now summons multi-Headed Snakes. Naafiri as Kerberos. Morgana as Icarus. Leona as Perseus.

[@ravindupadmanath2802]

As an irelia main, I'm mixed on the criticism. I agree that the head shape of the Porcelain splash art is super different from irelia and how it can make her look a bit generic. However, skins aren't just "characters in a different suit" To me, I always saw them as characters being reimagined in an entirely different world and how they adapt like Project, Star Guardian, and High Noon. and yes reimagining also means alternating their looks a bit from certain body structures to accessories and sometimes facial features. I mean look at pug'maw and bee'maw. they straight made kog'maw cute compared to how Kog'maw looks and everyone loved it. So I don't think it's fair to a certain degree that a champion needs to look EXACTLY the same when it comes to skins.

[@somo4227]

they re-imagined her into another anime girl when i look at kog'maw i know im looking at pugmaw the only thing that makes champs like irelia not look like riven 3.0 is their weapons

[@bright554]

In my opinion Asol is between epic and legendary because I don't feel like he has different animations or I don't see much difference

[@entothechesnautknight1762]

Nothing will ever really come close to the sheer unbridled *FEAR* that permiated the Kindred Community when we realized that Porcelain Kindred, the actual, unequivocal worst skin in the entire game, was gonna be the prestige. Even the relief that came when they revealed that by "prestige" they meant "entirely new skin please forget the old one we're sorry you were right" wasn't as visceral of a feeling as the gut-dropping fear. ...Although maybe they could have beaten that intensity if they went with sketch #2 for the splash instead to turn the entire community feral.

Why is it just except for amumu and lissandra that its just x champion but blue and white? This could have been so much cooler riot :(

[@MrLittleman606]

I like porcelain but it always kinda irks me that the Chinese inspired skins are rarely champions from Ionia. Morgana and A Sol at least are non human creatures. But MF Graves and Darius make no sense. Orianna and Nidalee would’ve been better buffers if they needed non Ionians. I also kinda wish smolder had been saved for Porcelain. But honestly the champion I’m the most surprised to not be in this skin line is Karma. I feel like her visuals fit this theme so well.
