She feels pretty underwhelming as a Support compared to other common picks. To me, she feels like Lulu lite.

Very surprised riot hasn't changed that skin still.....But the real question is how did that go through testing....Are they blind or something?

We assume that riot knows its a problem from them banning the skin from the lcs but there isn't an indicator past that for them changing it. .

This quote was from the thread about this on Reddit:
This is for spectator readability concerns only, and has nothing to do with balance

how can skins make it harder for spectators to read whats going on, but have no effect on players?

nami is good in AoE comps

my friends and i ran top malphite, jungle fiddle, mid karthus, and varus/nami bot. once we all hit level 6... wow. anyone on our team could initiate

she's not a good laner (mana costs on the heal are dirty, and bubble is unreliable) and she needs help to set up her stuff, so i don't think she's very good in solo q

Decision was made with casual or first time viewers in mind. Players play LoL every day for hours on end, so skins don't impact them as much.

Other skins, especially new ones that provide a different set of particles from the original skin, might be confusing to some of the newer viewers. Take it with a grain of salt. It's just Riot trying to be courteous to viewers.
Albeit, banning skins like Steel Legion Lux is also a no-brainer.

Players own the skins and or played with them?

If I am CRS Awesomedrunkguy I've played enough league to know what everyone looks like and what champions they happen to be. However if I am Johnnynewguy tuning into LCS because some friend said 'hey league is cool go watch it' it's doubtful he's going to have any idea who that chick with robotic wings is.

Or something like that..

have you actually laned against it or just look at the videos? I though it was fine until i actually played vs it, and its fucking awful
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

It's just me or is playing ad carry really frustrating right now?

Feels like every game i'm giving a nice auto attack massage to a front line of immortal bruisers before they catch me and two shot me.

But i can pick Kayle mid with no practice at all and go legendary or pick Olaf and become an unkillable split push machine with little skill involved.


ADC have seemed to be much more binary recently, at least in my experience.

They either kill everything or nothing, with absolutely no middle ground. Either they get 6 items and shred or they have 3 and get rolled.

And that's just against the non-maxed bruisers. 2-3 items seems to be enough to prevent being killed by all but the strongest ADC.


Wow your post really summed up exactly what I thought. I main ADC, hate playing every other role, and it feels so strange now. I either go 13 - 1, or 1 - 6. I think the closest I've had to a middle ground was a 17 - 7 game. Either you get fed in lane, and can kill bruisers, or you go even in lane, and bruisers kill you.

Edit: @sobek I haven't laned against it, but my friend owns the skin, and I've played against it fairly often. I can't dodge classic Lux at all, but on this new skin everything just stands out, and it feels so easy to dodge.

I would like it if all skins were banned in tournaments.

I was trying to teach a friend how to watch LoL just this week and had to explain to her three different times that two different Blitzcrank skins were the same champion.

I don't think they officially released a list, but I wouldn't be surprised of Piltover Customs Blitz was one of the banned skins. I would assume it's anything that is a drastic change.
