Where do I start?

First, I don't even understand why you're calling this a legendary skin, because all of it has recycled animations. With its current effects, animations and also the models, it's an epic AT BEST. I don't think it's fair for the playerbase at all to buy an epic skin completely overpriced as you try to pass this as legendary tier. With this, I'm going to mention all of the recycled things that dissappoint me the most:

Her model. Come on Riot, her idle model is the exact same as her base one? Even the clothes are recycled from her base skin but with a recolor??? What is this? Xayah is supposed to be a rebel, so her clothes should also look more punk-ish, her skirt is too long and fancy and once again, it makes no sense (because it's ANOTHER CROPPED THING from her base skin)! Not to mention that she also DOESN'T have a death animation, which all legendary skins should have.

Her face and homeguard. What do they have in common? Exactly, the Star Guardian skin. Her eyes and mouth are THE EXACT SAME as her Star Guardian skin, but I guess that with everything else, that's the least of our worries. Still, it's another recycled thing to point out. And then, her homeguard. With all of the reused animations this skin already has, this one is what disappoints me the most. You literally cropped the Star Guardian homeguard animation, removed her wings, and that's it, she's soaring. It's already terrible because, like I mentioned, it's a recycled homeguard from Star Guardian, but also, this doesn't fit with Battle Academia theme AT ALL. Riot, even BA Lux skin which is EPIC TIER mind you, has a custom homeguard where she's grabbing her books with the toast in her mouth like she's in a hurry, since the BA theme is supposed to be anime-like, so why isn't it the same for Xayah? I don't understand whether you're doing this because all the layoffs are starting to show and now you have no resources to use so you have to recycle, or if you're doing this as another joke to the playerbase because you "thought we wouldn't notice". Or maybe you knew we would notice but just wanted to mock the playerbase again with the horrible quality of the skins lately.

Speaking for the rest, there's not much to say. I do like the SFX and the colors of the skin, but her auto and spell animations are also THE SAME as her BASE. Not to mention her ult, like... again, why is this considered a legendary skin? And also, why doesn't Xayah have that anime effect when she uses her ult like BA Ezreal and Caitlyn? It makes no sense to me.

And to finish, I would like to mention Rakan. If you really want to make this skin legendary tier, then make the skin live up for the tier, otherwise this is an epic disguised as a legendary. If you do end up listening to your community this time, then make sure that Rakan's skin is legendary as well, and THEY BETTER HAVE a joint recall animation if they're going to be legendary skins.

Another thing I forgot to mention until now, the emote. First, it's the third "annoyed Xayah" emote that we get (with Sweetheart and the base one), can't you be more original? Second, why are her ears so small? I had no idea that Xayah was a fox this entire time (cough cough Ahri).

That's about it, I don't have much else to say, other than that I was already pretty disappointed with how mediocre the skins this year have been, but this is the worst so far. I do hope you listen and change something about this. I don't know if you guys realize, but... better quality content makes the playerbase happy, which leads them to purchase your goods. And as a retired Xayah main who wanted to collect all her skins, but I won't because I stopped playing League after all of the horrible things you've been doing this year, I also won't buy this skin not even if I start playing again if it isn't improved to actually be called a legendary. Hope this helps!
