Skin Updates

Skin Updates

As usual, today's update includes a few changes to the new skins currently testing on the PBE.

Corsair Quinn

[ IT HAS AN EYE PATCH]

Assets for Corsair Quinn's unique Valor model have been added but unfortunately it isn't hooked up all the way on each ability just yet. You will only see him when using Q or when he swoops down to mark Quinn's passive at the moment. Expect a fix soon!

Sea Hunter Aatrox

Sea Hunter Aatrox's colors have been changed significantly and his blade has been flipped.

GANK & I KS Summoner's Rift Banners

Two new Summoner's Rift banner textures were added in today's patch:

"Gangsters Against Nice Kids" (GANK) & "International Kraken Society" (I KS)

Miscellaneous

[BUGS] The HUD update is still bugged at the moment and not properly displaying the ability rank dots underneath the ability icons - team is aware and working on them. Bugs with Ally and enemy score have been fixed and display again on the scoreboard.

Balance Changes

* Remember *: The PBE is a testing grounds for new, tentative, and sometimes radical changes. The changes you see below may be lacking context or other accompanying changes that didn't make it in - don't freak out! These are not official notes.
