LoL: Visual goodies + Items tab

So I linked this in my Lissandra thread and said I'd talk about skins and shit so here I am and here's your link again http://www.reignofgaming.net/news/23809-unofficial-pbe-patch-notes-for-4-4-2013
So I'm not gonna bother pasting the videos in here, you all know how to work a link, I'm just gonna start from the bottom of the skins upwards and talk about what I think about them and if I like it

Runeguard Volibear

I don't really like it tbh, I know that it has seen some people that do like it from comment sections in forums and whatnot, but personally it's not my taste, which is a shame, because volibear is mental strong atm and that doesn't look like changing, but I just don't like any of his skins, at all. I was hoping for that to change with this one, but ti simply does not look like it has :/

Ice Drake Shyvana

Now this skin isn't exactly a skin I don't like, but it's more a skin I just think isn't her best. I won't be getting this skin simply because I have ironscale shyv and this simply doesn't beat it for me, although I can see why people like it

Worth noting I think both of these skins will be 975 RP although to my knowledge no prices have yet been released (INB4 THEY HAVE AND I HAVEN'T NOTICED BUT HEY HO)

BlackFrost Anivia

This shit looks awesome and I especially love that ult, may have me playing anivia again when I can fucking get mid seems as it certainly beats the bird of prey skin I currently have, the thing with it is, it has so many features that I can't help but feel that it's gonna be legendary, especially with the MASSIVE lore ties that it has. For those interested in lore this skin is basically the version of Anivia where Lissandra wins the war in freljord allowing her dark ice to penetrate into her very being cause her to have all this dark ice stuff. However we all know that's not gonna happen because dat Ashe is gonna win the war, but y'know, POSSIBILITIES, either way this skin is imo gonna be costing more than your average 975 and legendary would not surprise me, though nothing has been confirmed yet on this either.

Now for something EVEN LESS CONFIRMED: http://www.surrenderat20.net/2013/03/ironstylus-on-sivirs-vu-and.html#more

So Ironstylus talked to us all about visual reworks in general and specifically the sivir one, meaning she will of course be getting a visual rework, and that's pretty much all that was confirmed, there are no pictures or dates or themes or anything released yet that I have found personally, but it was a rework that was seen coming, mainly from mine and Jordo's so far accurate "Big feet syndrome" in which every character that has abnormally shaped feet, gets a rework!! But I'm generally pleased this is happening, she does look a bit outdated, but I hope the reowrk is only visual as I like her kit quite a lot

Finally, we have the items tab, which I would put in a different thread if I had more to say other than GREAT: http://www.surrenderat20.net/2013/04/41-pbe-update.html#more

So yeah, as I said, I like the idea, finally got rid of that useless achievements tab. From what I am aware of you can get a program unassociated with riot that does this anyway, but it's nice to have an official one for when the recommended items are just shit, would have had it's own thread but that's pretty much all I have to say about it.

So as always let me know what you think below, I'll bring you more when I get other stuff on the webssss, possibly the next patch notes.

ALSO as an add on for this already full thread, let me know if you want me to review anything else you have found, or if you want to see shit like the skin sales and champ sales or the price recutions, if you REALLY wanted I could maybe try and do videos of LoL news. Would be similar to catrific's league out loud, and dodger's gaming newz in terms of delivery, but would be more boring and less attractive, because it would be meeeeeeeee. but yeah let me know

Blackfrost Anivia = Instabuy np
As for the other skins i like the Shyvana skin but don't like the volibear skin, i just don't play either of them much at all

About time for a sivir visual upgrade. I've been waiting for a Sivir VU for a long time

Give this man his LoL subforum already

I love the Anivia skin, its ridiculously good. Everytime im firing up my ult, im gonna get wet in my pants. Im yet to see a good Voli skin. I dont think theyve been very creative when it comes to that.

The thunder lord is the best skin for Voli. I am not liking the new one though looks to basic like his other skins.

The Anivia skin looks like legendary skin, just with the new VO and the new particles/animations.

To be honest the new suggested items have been generally good for most champions, but with champions with multiple build paths e.g. Nidalee. As the suggested items are for her AP playstyle, while she can be played AD bruiser. Another example will be Karma (suggested items are support) but can also AP mid.

You'd be surprised how many of them are just terrible though. You get the odd ones which are obvious, such as not everybody that is viable in the jungle gets recommended machete, which is fair enough. You also get a lot of top laners that can build pretty much anything, so you don't always see what you look for, which is fair enough. But absoluetly nothing has a full ruby sightstone recommended, there are several supports with it missing, and thresh has about half the items in the game recommended to him ;p
So I think it's gonna be pretty helpful, it also helps me take my supports mid lane and not be recommended pooloads of wards
