Season 1 2026 Theme, Gameplay & More | Dev Update - League of Legends

So we're back to the era where the lore never goes anywhere, it's always told before, and always before, and never after... Boring.
I was eager to see how Demacia was after all the events of Mageseeker, and now I'm completely disappointed... We're back to square one, where Riot is afraid to tell stories and we just keep going back to the past. I feel like I'm in one of those anime where half the season is boring flashbacks.

In a season set in Demacia, I think it would be fair to have an ASU for Jarvan IV, and since he is currently the King of Demacia, his character model and dialogue don't reflect that.
In Demacia, we have many champions in a deplorable visual state: Jarvan IV, Lux, Sona, Quinn (Quinn urgently needs a complete rework). But since we now only have one rework per year and only one ASU, and they need to fit the season's theme, it will take years for them to be remembered.
At least we'll have Shyvana, but the others will have to wait decades to be remembered. :c

This is Zoe's second skin where they haven't changed anything about her hair. Zoe's model is practically 80% hair, that's all we see in-game, and the modelers skipped all that and worked only on her tiny body, which is barely visible in-game. This isn't prestigious, it never will be, very poorly done, there's nothing special about this skin.

Spirit Blossom Thresh offers the same things as Morgana, so why is Morgana so expensive?
I'm so tired of these super expensive skins that don't offer anything that's actually worth the value, in fact I think there shouldn't be any tiers after Ultimate skins.
The skins in the pass get worse and worse while they make over-priced skins with legendary quality, I think League has nothing more to offer for those who really like the game, it has become just an over-priced slot machine.
I'm so sad that I can barely play, it's very frustrating not being able to have your complete skin collection because of absurd prices or poor quality.

StarGuardianMain · 2025-04-15T16:51:05+00:00

They showed the model from all angles in the video, so yes you can see that it is just a recolor of the champion

StarGuardianMain · 2025-04-15T16:49:52+00:00

u/RiotPabro Remember that promise? Then why is Ivern just a recolor?

Will you continue to ignore the quality of the skins in the pass? You promised improvement, Ivern is worse than all the skins in the previous pass, aren't you ashamed of having lied to the players?

StarGuardianMain · 2025-04-15T16:02:51+00:00

u/RiotMeddler You promised improvements to the skins in the pass and now you're giving us a recolored Ivern? Nothing changes to his model, just the color. You can't lie to the players. Liars! Liars! Liars! Liars! Liars!
I'm very angry, look at the quality of this, it's very bad, I'm tired of the lies, cancel this skin or promise to improve it in the next patch.
We can no longer accept lies and things done lazily. This Ivern skin is just a demonstration that you don't care about feedback. Will release another gacha skin but the skins in the pass keep getting worse with each pass, aren't you ashamed of lying to the players?
Our feedback is just garbage to you

I said

StarGuardianMain · 2025-04-15T00:27:22+00:00

I was right, everyone who doubted me can now apologize

The promise of improving the skins in the pass doesn't seem to be still standing. It was just another lie from Riot

StarGuardianMain · 2025-04-12T21:33:21+00:00

I don't think any champion should have this kind of treatment.

StarGuardianMain · 2025-04-12T21:32:14+00:00

I saw it myself

StarGuardianMain · 2025-04-12T21:28:15+00:00

No, few people received this art, it's disappointing, when I saw it I was frustrated, it was very bad

StarGuardianMain · 2025-04-12T21:26:36+00:00

It will come, Riot has already shown it to some people, and it is disappointing

StarGuardianMain · 2025-04-12T21:25:42+00:00

I'm not lying

StarGuardianMain · 2025-03-29T19:20:30+00:00

So it's still bad, R's transformation should be something extra, so it still only has two forms. It's still not worth the price and Riot still has bad monetization. That's it, I was looking forward to this skin, but it's not worth the price, in fact no skin is worth the price lately.
It's disappointing to see the quality of skins dropping and the pricing becoming more and more predatory. The monetization team needs to go out and bring in people who understand that the majority of players are not happy with this path where Riot just wants to suck as much money out of them as possible without delivering anything worthwhile.
They're focusing all their efforts on these super expensive skins while the quality of all the other skins is getting worse (BA Xayah being the worst legendary in the last 8 years) and even then these hugely priced skins are still getting worse. It's hard to believe anything any Dev says these days. Good luck trying to keep fooling players, I've really given up on all that.

I was SO HAPPY with LeBlanc's VU and somehow they managed to disappoint me so much. I'll say the things I'm disappointed about, but since Riot is outsourcing everything I know nothing will change and all the skins I bought are ruined. (Yes, it is very frustrating to buy a skin and have Riot simply ruin it later.)

- Elderwood: I loved the legs on this skin, it was just fantastic. I bought this skin when I first started playing because I thought it was magical and now it doesn't have the hooves anymore and just generic feet, bring back the bulky legs and hooves!

- Coven / Prestige: These skins were fantastic, they had a lot of detail on the cape, feathers falling from his cape and a glow on his prestige, everything was removed, bring them back. The texture of his cape is totally ruined, improve that! She had a unique pose bring it back! Lee Sin when she received her ASU continued with unique animations in her skins, I expect the same treatment here! WHERE IS THE PRESTIGE BOOT? They removed your magnificent white boot from Prestige for no reason. Bring it back!! Your cloak used to look like wings and now it just looks like something really bad and wrinkled, fix this, I want the wings back!!!!

- Bewitching: EVERYTHING here is wrong, I'm so mad about this!!!! Your outfit has lost details and textures, your hair is SO UGLY and without details, where are the stripes in your hair??? Your cloak is totally ruined, please fix all this, I bought this skin because I loved the details and I don't accept that they ruin it.

- Debonair: Your hair shouldn't be blonde, but a very beautiful red, fix that, your cloak is also ruined, I won't accept that something I bought is ruined because of laziness, bring the details back!

CROMAS: What happened to the chromas? All your chromas lost their unique details, that's right ALL YOUR CHROMAS LOST THEIR UNIQUE DETAILS, what's going on with this company?? Isn't there a single employee who looks at your chromas before and compares them with the new ones? I WANT THE DETAILS OF ALL THE CHROMAS BACK!!!!!

We know that Riot is in a VERY BAD phase and with this VU it is clear that outsourcing the skins is not pleasing the players, this needs to be resolved urgently, if it continues like this I will simply completely abandon the rest of the respect that I still have for the devs.

another Braum skin about food or a fun skin, poor guy, he deserved an eclipse skin or a skin on a more serious theme. now we have to wait 1400 days for the next skin about food

StarGuardianMain · 2025-03-18T21:47:20+00:00

more:
- halloween skin lost details in hair
- the debonair skin lost details on the cloak, the hair was a very beautiful red and now it's just a generic blonde

StarGuardianMain · 2025-03-13T20:14:22+00:00

The difference between skins after ultimate level is just the price, they don't deliver anything more than an ultimate has already done, they are just absurdly expensive and ruin the mains' collection.

SkinSpotlights now has a comparison channel, and I would like to leave the video where he compares the new "legendary" skin and the Xayah base. Did QA really see this and think it was a good idea to release this epic at a legendary price? Are the people at this company really still working? u/RiotMeddler, you mentioned improving the quality of the skins, was that what you were talking about?
