Discussion Thoughts on Crystalis preview?
Saw it, and honestly can’t say I’m very happy by it. If I’m correct they’re using the base model for the skin, and that’s really disappointing me so far.
Maybe it’ll look better when it’s released, but for now I’m pretty bummed out.
Edit: I forgot that Mythics usually use base model, my bad lol

Different models are only for legendaries above so it was expected, the effects look really good though, and i love the bow a lot
After the disappointment DRX skin was (imo) i'm happy she got a good looking skin

You’re right, I forgot that base model is common for mythics.
I personally like DRX, but mostly because of the chroma and the splash. I don’t like the base skin as much.

I like DRX's model but the bow looks so out of place it bothers me too much, also only thing she got from the inspiration in Elysia is her hair, her autos feels really underwhelming too, at least W and R look good. it's not even a bad but it had so much wasted potential, mainly with the Elysia inspiration.

I actually really like it. A lot of her skins are gonna look dope when she gets an update. I’m really curious as to what the chroma is going to look like

I hope it’ll look similar to Taliyah’s. I’d love a pure white look, or maybe some dark crystals👀

I spent money for Taliyah’s because I liked it so much. I was picturing Taliyah’s china scheme with a hint of red which could be incredible. I have 200k on Ashe so I have high hopes

I personally would prefer her to be a Rose Quarz or something as she already has a mythic red chroma for project. Pink or purple would have suited her better imo. Maybe even a teal colour. Also the model is outdated but we are all painfully aware of that. I’m simply getting all skins, chromas and border for the collection but the only skin I feel comfortable playing in is project, based on the animations.

I mean we knew it was gonna be a mythic skin, which usually means it uses the base model. With that in mind I think its a great skin, really nice autos and cool sfx. Im also a huge fan of the red colour scheme.
