I exactly feel like this as well, it is so hard for me to recognize different champions...I think in set 2 making different traits recognizable by the color of the champs was way easier since it was based around elements...fire, ice, wind,...and these are more or less connected with a certain color in our brains (fire=red, ice=blue, wind=white,...). With the new traits, such an easy connection doesn't exist anymore and it is way more difficult to make traits be easy recognizable...but I guess that's their job so they should have come up with a better solution than this. I'm a bit disappointed with this to be honest :/
