LOL: The controversial decision of Riot with the new Skins that has enraged the community

The latest Skins of League of Legends are being particularly controversial. Although in general terms, the community is more than satisfied with the launch of new aspects and the improvement of generalized quality, Riot Games has tried to carry out a few cuts that have not liked the players. It happened with Ekko Firelight, which arrived without new sound effects and had to be postponed, repeating in this case with Xayah and Rakan . The difference, in this case, is that it does not seem that the community will come out winning again.

Riot Games cuts with new skins

The problem with respect to the next arcana skins that will receive Xayah and Rakan on the next 12.7 patch are related to your animation back based on base. When one of the champions returns alone, he will have his own animation with special effects related to the Skin. However, when the two are joined to return there will be no special effect . Simply, both champions will execute the default animation corresponding to its basic appearance. A decision that Riot Games would have taken during the early stages of its development and supposes a step back even with respect to its cheaper aspects .

The truth is that players have a very reasonable argument to criticize the developer's decision, since only the Individual Aspects Xayah and the launching Skin of both characters did not count on this type of animations . In this way and although aspects themselves are spectacular, players do not want to fall into the dangerous precedent of seeing the benefits and continue paying the same price as always. A crossroads for the consumers of League of Legends to which, at the moment (there are still a few days of PBE) Riot Games has responded with a refusal since "No can not create a joint animation with such a short time until its release".

In recent times, Riot Games has generated more controversial than ever with respect to its cosmetics. The company came to plan the launch of hidden Skins under a payment wall of more than 18,000 Riot Points and already introduced aspects only obtainable through the Loot Boxes of HEXTECH crafts (in this case in TFT). Although it is easy to understand that a company wants greater profit margin, there are much more interesting practices such as the rumored new category of aspects to keep the demanding community of League of Legends.
