oh yeah, i almost never see him played anymore so i guess i forgot he was in that theme {{sticker:zombie-brand-mindblown}}

plz dont bring politics into this fantasy world. Idc who's in office, they definitely would lie about at least half the shit they promised and leave a new and/or bigger mess then the last for the next president after that to use as a platform for them to lie about how their gonna do better.

Your just making him a perma ban for draft, he's already very scary the way he is now. If he had all that other stuff your talking about he'd be nerfed back to where he is. Don't need a yasuo jr runnin around, ruining perfectly competitive games.

oh like the anivia skins. Man... I gotta watch Team America World Police again now {{sticker:slayer-pantheon-popcorn}}

Im a casual gamer and I approve this idea. Plus i wanna tell my friends when we fight an evelynn w/ that skin "Beware the tree w/ titties, it grabs ya when ya least expect it and ya finish early" {{sticker:zombie-nunu-hearts}}

If you even know what that is you probably do too {{sticker:slayer-pantheon-popcorn}}

I never thought ashe fit into project skins. Hers was good all the same but literally every other champ in the project skins is either a mobile assassin/carry or duelist. Irelia would definitely have a home in project considering her theme fits the skin line like a glove.

I always like to see poolparty skins and viktor has been ignored in the skin department for some time now.

lol next april fools maybe. Like the idea though

I suppose but shaco's already played out the scary clown in so many different genres as skins already. For a clown he doesn't have an actual joke skin yet, save maybe nutcracker.

Janna does need a bit of love, the only good ones she has imo is the news one and sacred sword.

The Xayah and rakan skins would have to be in the same line, project skins are sleek cyborgs and program skins are full on bots. They'd work great for either but they need to be in the same line together. Really liked the jax and yorick skin ideas, jax hittin stuff w/ a broom or pool net and yorick summoning a big mom as his ult and kids as mistwalkers. I also keep reposting my idea for Surprise Party Bard and Dark Star Tahm Kench. **Surprise Party Bard** would be a party clown and the chimes he collects would be party whistles, cupcakes w/ a candle, or balloons. For his Q he'd throw a bundle of streamers. His W would be a cake with candles that get added as it charges. The E gates would look like bounce house doorways and you'd turn into a present while your traveling. Finally, his R would put party hats on everyone and streamer whistles in their mouths and the ground would be littered with presents. **Dark Star Tahm Kench** would be made up of purple and black asteroid debris that floats together in his body shape w/ light from the dark star shining through the cracks, while the star is located where his throat should be. The passive stacks would be in the shape of a vortex and they'd be purplish black as you fill them in. Q would release a slimy tentacle from the dark star. The W would look the same for the most part accept his stomach would shine more since the star sucked something up. When his E is used Tahm would be surrounded by the outline of a black hole for its duration. His R would open his mouth like it already does and expose the dark star and he'd go shooting into the sky when it was triggered, then the ground where he lands would turn dark purple and cracked as he crashes there and spits out anyone he might have w/ him.

Like the Darius Idea {{sticker:slayer-pantheon-thumbs}}

looks ok, still won't pay for an emote w/ rp though.

you know what I'm talking about just think about what they'd look like

lol you got a point. wu shoulda been the dark star skin for sure and j4 shoulda had this one, just fits better that way.

what do you expect, most of em last little more then a second and stackin em is the easiest way to single out someone and punish them for their mistake.

Is Zoe's sleep considered a new effect or a stun?

Void Champs have 2 things in common: *They all have an ability that augments basic attacks *How their names are written/pronounced ex: Kha'Zix, Kai'Sa, Vel'Coz, Cho'Gath, etc.

what does a battletoad look like? I mean not much to consider here, at least link a pick or a description. {{sticker:zombie-brand-facepalm}}

Thanks for the review, it gave me a lot of good ideas for editing and filling in things I was drawing a blank for (like the secondary bar)

A lot of this is moderately inolace in other game modes. Honestly i dont want much changed for it because when it gets late the games in my experience are a lot more competitive.

Uh... this probably wont get attention in concepts and creations. You prolly need to repost this under a more relevent forum

I love it, always love the dark star theme

Omg i dont need to read anything i can already see it YES!! It can be a halloween or xmas skin.{{sticker:slayer-pantheon-thumbs}}

Ahri's popstar skin could become a theme

I'll have to keep an eye out for that, I might have seen a few examples of it already, even for as little as i pay attention to the game these days.

IDC if riot tries to make money off their work when possible but if they intended for emote prices to land on a free currency earned for playing then why would they start it off as pay real $ for it? Doesn't this feel like a drug dealer testing the waters to see if their customers will deal with a "convenience fee"?

Games like overwatch are sold to players in the classic way that you have to purchase the actual game before playing, completely fair. Their EXTRA content (emphasis on extra) is also earned for playing or by paying, also fair. A game like hearthstone is based on the concepts of trading card games, which has always been about pay as you play on. This is nothing new, I've spent more then a pretty penny on magic the gathering cards and felt no regret for it. I don't blame game development companies for trying to make money on extra content and I especially don't blame blizz for where they took hearthstone. Its a logical conclusion for where that games standing right now based on where i saw other strategy card games from the past go. That's why I stayed clear of it, despite friends and other blizz games offering free prizes for trying hearthstone out. Just as I said in my original post, I still haven't paid a cent towards those overpriced bits of art and its up to other players to decide for themselves as well were to draw the line for a financial investment into a game. If you think something is absurd with a game don't buy into it. The obsessive need to complete a collection in a video game is easily prayed upon by the owners of said games. This entire thread, to me, has just been about putting my foot down about things i consider stupid as a player and to point out how easy it is for video games to cater to addictive personality traits. Which to me comes back to that whole obesity argument and restaurants' responsibility for it. The answer, to me, being they have no responsibility for their customers choices, they're simply selling a product/service. Its in the customers hands to decide moderation and whats fair and by continuing to buy into what their angry about continues to make it fine. The same applies to video game content as far as I'm concerned with this article. If you don't like what a game like hearthstone has become then tell some people if you feel like it and leave it behind, I've done the same to WoW when i stopped feeling the same community presence and how horribly it started pandering to a lazy player base (in my opinion).

Yes they're a part of a pay system in the games your talking about but there's also opportunities to earn that very same loot for free as you play in most cases. Riot used to allow people to pay for runes with EITHER rp or ip. If they included an ip option to purchase these emotes this post would have never happened.

Ya and most of their games are better supported because of that extra cost. That's never been in question with them, it was the original business model for any games made when most of their games got off the ground. Extra shit I can understand having a price tag but emotes aren't something that should be considered extra, they're a method of communication. In an online game where teamwork is implied methods of communication shouldn't cost extra. I read from someone else that they planned on switching the pricing to IP's replacement essence as well. I was not aware of this when I made the post. More or less i was outraged when i discovered riot was trying to make bank off something that I've seen universally free from other games I've played. Also I'm not sure if anyone else noticed these tactics riot just tried with emotes to essentially make money off of players with addictive personalities. Everything about their setup when I started playing some years ago were just fine. Then these money grabbing tactics started popping up here or there. Anyone remember when you could easily spectate a random game or most anything in the client? That got done away with when it was decided that it was a possible threat to their paid streaming. I know I pitched a fit in the forums when that happened because I used to love spectating games in the client as i was eating or doing something else. Then when they've become an established brand for a few years they pull this crap with emotes. From what I'm seeing this was blatantly done to appeal to addictive weaknesses. Having a game as play for free and make money off the gameplay from those who are truely interested is fine and a fair trade but to try and drop a real price tag on something as simple as emotes (which is normally offered for free with chat methods) just makes it feel like their now just attempting to squeeze as much as they can out of the players. I get riot needs to make ends meet and expand but this game has been slowly funneling to a heavier price tag, all the while attracting players with the enticement of free to play and making it easier for players to be reminded of things they can spend real money on. For those in charge of riot at this point its not about a fun game and a healthy community. Its about how much more they can make off it. That much has become plainly obvious with these overpriced emotes.

fair enough, never underestimate the new riots greed i guess. Sad to say i think its worse then blizz now

Ok then, thanks for clearing that up guys, that shit just pisses me off then. I mean if they're just trying to differentiate between how certain passives can't stack it would make a lot more sense for riot to simply disable players from having multiples of the exact same finished item. It would of also cleared up my confusion on their wacky concept of "unique" and "unique with a name" and i don't think anyone stacks the same exact items anymore.

If they put one parry on his passive shield that'd be cool, he already deals w/melee pretty well

idk if they'll figure out how to make this work. making it appear for sol to have a bigger body then he really does was sort of a problem for his basic design.

omg! ok! everyone pull up a chair and get your snacks ready! someones gonna be sued! :D

idk if theyll bother w/ nocturne for a while. he got cursed revenant nocturne a decent while ago compared to some other champs. They're prolly gonna do something with aurelian sol seeing as he only has one other skin.

i feel like yasuo is based on this art
