Another thing to note about SG Orianna is that she has a unique walking and idle animation, that alone makes her an 8/10 in my book, the skin looking really nice bumps it to a 9.2/10
I also like how her orb weapon became her Star guardian companion that is a clockwork bird. It’s a nice touch instead of have a weapon and a pet following Orianna
Unique run animation too !
3:11 I believe Riot has said in the past that they have lost some of the original voices of older champions (i.e. without voice filters), like Orianna and Syndra. That's why their more "human" skins keep the filter, like pool party Syndra
Would be a good time to update those voices innit?
@@DandeDingusyes, but the money is send back to skin production. Cant let that part go down
Am'I a bad person for forgetting that pool party Syndra existed? 😓
@@mikonyx7712 the key is remembering Syndra exists anyway
You know what that means
*slams table
*NEW VOICEOVER PLS FOR GOD'S SAKE RIOT*
5:02 "Naafiri has been revealed, my plates are about to be full"
Completely understandable, the design looks fabulous
I get the joke it's cuz dogs are yummy and can be served on a plate, and naafiri is bigger than a plate so it would fill it.
Dude it's just a dog in which place it's fabulous
@@metalllich3493 the place that is not human/humanoid
My tinfoil hat theory as to why Senna was split up from the group is: Riot wanted to put them all together, but Senna was taking a little bit too long. They could have put them all together in next patch, but they didn't wanna distract from Soul Fighter, and + they didn't have much for the Elderwood Patch. So since Senna was taking a bit too long, instead of the delaying the batch of skins until after the Soul Fighter event (and risk the Sera stans unleashing their wrath), they had to just delay Senna by one patch to make it work.
Or Riot just hates Senna lol
yeah i think its that, plus it gives us something while we wait for soul fighter so im not complaining :D
riot hating senna? she's one of their favorites, 8 skins in 3 years including a legendary and 2 prestige
@@joaorodrigues7993 Not to China.
riot doesn't hate senna. she has 2 prestiges, and a legendary. she's favourite if anything at all.
I don't think every WR skin needs to be ported but I don't think there's any harm in it either. Orianna having new animations attached to it gave me so much envy that I'm extremely happy that it's here on pc
Tbh i really don't like any wr special skins maybe except shan hai scrolls but other than that they are pretty mid for me
@@SmirvingCrystal rose? (Well.. most of them). Soul fighter Nilah? The new lunar skins ? No? 😅
To play devil's advocate just a little bit on Elderwood, I think it's really good that they just periodically do a couple of skins here and there. So far I feel like it's kept consistency up when compared to bigger reruns like High Noon, Project, Cosmic, etc. This most recent two for Karthus and Wukong didnt feel like a quota building out skins for the patch, it felt like they had really good ideas for skins worked on them and just dropped them when they were ready. For my money as well they are easily the best skins for both Wukong and Karthus.
got here bc of nicky's cellphone alarm what's good
Star Guardian was on PC first and foremost keeping skins from people who actually invested all their money on PC, is a bad decision in the first place. Hell I'm addicted to league never once I have bought anything on Wildrift nor play it more than 30 mins per 6 months. Legends of Runeterra on the other hand, I spent too much money on. Lor better than Wildrift.
honestly sg seraphine is so unpolished and full of problems that aren't ignoreable (the stage on the homeguard, no second familiar on homeguard, no particle effects on the E when they could just get her indie kda one that's the same thing but better, some animation transition errors, etc)
really set a bad precedent for the next wr ports.
honestly surprised she got that high of a score, her W does kinda carry the whole skin tho.
The hand on the staff is supposed to represent how greed got karthus to get infected by the decaying power of the covenant. Its symbolism for him trying to grasp for powers he should have never had!
Honestly i dont think either should get exclusives let everyone have the same stuff. Nilah hasnt gotten a skin sense her release and its WR exlusive. I think everyone should be able to enjoy the sake stuff.
then port every skin on pc to wildrift then so none got exclusive skin in that sense
@AnggrekBiru I mean yeah no exclusives would imply that yes
@@Robosapion it would take a lot of time, and people will still whining "whats the point on playing A/B version, its just the same"
Love the edit Ocanha, great job
:)
As an Orianna main I'm glad Seraphine stans exist because thank to them I'm getting the Orianna skin that I really wanted and redemeed Rakan which is also insanely cool. Thanks Sera stans, be annoying, do crime!
fr i hate their guts on a personal level but I'm a Rakan main so even though it pains me I have to thank them...
annoying to the point theyre sending death threats to riot?
They are not being "annoying". They were literally awful.
I don't wanna praise Seraphine stans. In their sub-reddit they had address of Riots and threaten to attack them and dox them if they didn't put SG seraphine.Seraphine stans and Queensofleague are the gutter of league of legends. So if you praise them then you are the one enabling that behavior
This does not justify their shitty behaviour
They may manage to get the other SG, but they still are an awful bunch of pitiful beings and sometimes i wish kda never existed so that the stan culture wouldn't ever mashed with league of legends
I think if Wild Rift wants more exclusive content/skins they should keep up with creating Wild Rift exclusive skin lines.
Star Guardian started out on PC first, so I think it’s justified to be upset that some SG skins didn’t make it to PC (I’m not defending harassment or threats that the devs received, that is wrong and no one should ever send death threats over a video game cosmetics)
But I think skin lines like Stargazers, Psychic Detectives, and Superheroes should stay on Wild Rift. Because these skins themes are unique to Wild Rift. But thats just my hot take.
I’ve got two things to say:
-Thank you for the JoJo reference. A friend recently convinced me to watch it and after a month I’ve finished 3 parts and going on to the forth. I appreciate it.
-The stab at the Lego Ninjago movie is absolutely valid. That thing insults me almost as much as the Percy Jackson movies.
especially the Percy Jackson movies, they could've had the next Harry Potter if they didn't decide the "reimagine" the story.
I always wonder if there's ever a small amount of creatives working at riot regretting ever creating seraphine in the first place with all of the drama it's brought everyone on the community
as a seraphine main i was suprised you gave it 8/10 the skin is very disappointing and her e is a worst version of kda rising star i think the skin is like 5 or 6 out of 10
I do think WR should have exclusivity, but only in their skin lines, not skins themselves. LoR's SG Gwen escaped this issue due to her being, for the most part, a splash art, but because we see the WR skins in action, it really stings even more to not have them on PC, when the latter was the version of the game to give birth to this line in the first place (it also didn't help that the WR skins had a much more appealing storyline with cute animations, while PC got that mediocre visual novel). In Star Guardian's case, it felt even more like a slap to the face because of the skin choices, I'm not even gonna talk about Seraphine, because her stans did enough harm, but Redeemed Rakan and Xayah were requested literally since the corrupted versions were announced, hell, WR itself wasn't announced yet, but PC ended up not getting those skins.
What about the new skinlines that split the champ selection into two? Like the Mythmakers (5vs5) or the Soul Fighters (10vs5)
LMAO U took a pic from the county of Kinda in Sweden. I LOVE IT KEKW
Rapid-Fire Skin Review for the Recall Tree when?
Is that Cadence of Hyrule music I hear? Nickyboi truly is a man of culture
as a karthus enjoyer i really like this new skin. another one where the skittles are easier to see than base but that’s to be expected atp. really like the hand staff too, dfg vibes like you said.
…phantom is still his best skin tho
I'm really glad someone else feels the same way abt wr excludive skins. wr players deserve at least a few skins special to them
I will concede that WR deserves stuff, just not from established skinlines, WR has shown they can make fantastic skinlines all their own and I'm fine with never getting those, but SG has a large fanbase and I don't know why Riot didn't see the backlash coming a mile away.
Bruh, if the LoR corrupted ascendend skins come to league it would be INSANE
I really disagree with the wild rift exclusives take, it's not like Wild Rift is a fully different game like TFT, Legends of Runeterra, or Valorant. It's phone league of legends. Having exclusives in the same skinline is just weird to me. I guess though Im not really bothered when it's an entirely new skinline, it just feels weird that your favorite champ could get selected for a skinline that exists in pc but their version is just not in the game.
Unfortunately, Ori will always have a robotic voice because Riot lost the original sound file without the filter. Same goes for Syndra and Kalista. Not sure why they don't just bring her va back
Back in the day Riot was really, really bad at crediting the original voice actors. They probably never made a note of it. Insane, I know.
SO MUCH NICKYBOI CONTENT HELL YEAH
As a Gwen main, having my favourite character be the only SG champion to not have her skin in LoL or even wild rift kinda sucks. Maybe the sera fans weren’t wrong, drown… I mean, persuading the Riot team is the good solution. I’m kidding 😊
(I am kidding but : Stop treating Gwen like a champion with a non-existing player base please.)
i mean, instead of riot having to release exlusive skins for each game how about they like... idk.. finish wild rift before releasing it? Idk just a thought.
Ah yes that would just be over a thousand skins.
And by the time they get all those skins out there would be several hundred more new skins in PC.
Wild Rift is NEVER gonna catch up to PC at the end of the day. It might literally be physically impossible unless they stop making PC skins altogether.
the corrupt skins would be so good oh man. I want them so bad. Also why not; uncorrupted skins for the darkin would also be sick.
I'm gonna have to disagree with you on "them having their own exclusive skins". Imo, I think both should be, as Riot employees stated before, "exclusive... for a time and then shared". I believe this should go for BOTH versions of the game, IE skins should be exclusive on either platform for a while and then are eventually shared across the other platforms. That way you can have your cake and eat it too. You can have exclusives BUT also share them between different platforms and in a way, from a financial stand point, make more money overall.
While yes the battle academia wukong skin does suck in game, I see why people might like it as as it recontextulizes the champion from being monkey man to being an anime boy. Similar to arcana Xerath I like it when they do this as it might get some people more interested in playing the champion who other wise wasnt. I wish they would do the inverse more often however of turning the human champions into monsters as well.
2:30 Apologies for the probably overdone asf comment but, wasn't Karthus' last skin the Pentakill one or am I just that out of the loop
they need to add bewitching vex
As an Avid Ezreal enjoyer (a year ago) the complete dismissal of Battle Academia Ezreal (aka Goku) completely unacceptable please delete
1:44 i don't know is this a meme, or real voting, but if its real, it show that people really like the "cute anime characters", so league will produce more cute skin, and more cute character:(
No more badass or monster skin/champion
Genshin effect are real
Exclusive skins is a stupid thing Riot does because they are too stupid to not have isolated teams working on the same damn game.
Seriously, how does the multibillion dollar company can't pay enough people to work together in the same intellectual property?
Hopefully riot keep making more exclusive skin in wr I play both so I can enjoy both and wr need fresh stuffs too I don't get hyped when old skin from pc come to wr
WR should have exclusive skinlines, but exclusive skins from established skinlines is just annoying, ah yes my favorite champ just got a skin from my favorite skinline but it's on a mobile game, Riot knew what they were doing and shouldn't have been surprised that a champ's community finally went after them.
@@snowpegasi yeah they should focus on new skin line for wr but if it's from an existing skin line then it has to be for both personally I would love of riot make separate skin line for both ( but for existing skinline it's like too much champion from a same skinline can make skin line boring and lame maybe that's why they bring some champion skin from certain skinline to not flood one game with same skin concept ) this happened with highnoon skin line now that skinline doing so bad in pc
I don't think there is a problem with porting the skins, exclusivity is shit, to me it sounds like "mom, only me can have this", I don't think having exclusives is a positive thing
3:29 her familiar was tocker before the little legend was a thing.
I‘m happy to get Orianna on pc, as I loved this skin when it first released, but I will not invest money also in wildrift. I think that every skin should be on every platform, at least between pc and wildrift (Lor is a completely different game, I don‘t hold a grudge for exclusivity there) Now we get the same problem with Soul fighter, where there are exclusive skins everywhere. Wildrift doesn‘t get any of the pc skins, and pc doesn‘t get either of Nilah or Irelia. It feels so much like a „fuck you“ for mains of the respective champs, to split there skin releases into two „different“ games.
On a more positive note, I really love the Karthus and Wukong skins. Wu never really had a great one, and Underworld looks outdated now. Can‘t wait for the treemonkey
The nicky-girl fanarts are getting out of hand...
Nicky when he has to review a seraphine skin: 0:02
They shouldve just done fewer Star Guardian skins and had both games have all of them. I'm glad Oriana finally got a 1350 skin that isn't limited availability and is actually good. (I don't like sfx on Dark Star and the Bee skins trigger me for being a dumb concept, sad that Snow Day is legacy and her only other skin worth buying imo is TPA which is also legacy)
I agree orianna is so sold short w her skins. Apart from star guardain, the only skin that I liked was pool party and it's the only skin I own for her, dark star being my second ok favorite. She just doesn't have any GOOD skins yk? Star guardian has a lot of issues to it due to them using her model and making her human so now her robotic emotes make her looks crazy 😦 ik I'll eventually buy it tho cuz other than that it's beautiful
Imagine defending WR Exclusivity
I wish they did a targon event with Naafiri and the skin line would be the corrupt darkin aspects and reverse darkin with Aatrox/Kayn etc.
Kinda agree with the exclusivity of skins.
god elder wood karthas looks so fucking cool how the hell did they make it work its such a weird skin line for karthus to be in and yet somehow its easily his best one
I dont mind the exclusive skins but i dont like it when its an exclusive for a champ that didnt get a skin in league for over 2 years
I just don't like exclusive skins for established skinlines, WR has shown they can make unique skinlines and I'm fine with never getting any of them, but skinlines from PC have dedicated fanbases that like those skins and that Riot thought that none of those fans would take issue with this practice is insane.
i lowk wish seraphines star guardian skin had more music in her sfx like it sounds really subpar compared to her base skin sound effects; tho maybe thats just me LOL
personally the moment when i get my redemed xayah, i dont care about wild rift exclusives anymore
3:20 Omg not a Ninjago reference 😂Definitely wasn't expecting that one. One of the most traumatic scenes I ever watched as a kid, when he realised he's a nindroid 😭
the fact the wr exclusives are coming into pc (except xayah and rakan) kinda piss me off like sure theyre good skins but the amount of harassment ppl received because of them is crazy, its so annoying seeing ppl complain about wr exclusives like we dont have thousands of skins we can pick from. They complain about wr being a worse version of league but then get mad when wr gets even a pinch of content every 2 months
the Sera fans were toxic as hell but I can understand it for champs that get less skins, like Orianna for example, of all her skins she has gotten from her release date to now only 3 of them are buyable and she usually only gets a skin like every 2 years, or with the bewitching vex situation where at the time before her Empyrean skin was announced she had not received a single skin since her release and for it to finally happen and be a WR exclusive was a kick to the face.
@@snowpegasi this i get but when ppl go to just cry and harass people because they dont get what they want just gives me a ick
I mean, the staff is symbolic of his story...he over reach for power, a grasp of power for his staff is great
Oh, I would love to see the stargazer skins for PC lol. I'm just a sucker for these skins that have an astronomic/astological aesthetic
Seraphine mains really are the most scary mains out of everyone.
When is wildrift coming to consoles like they promised damn
It's also what happened to DC; They cave in, gave Zack Snyder a couple more mils to finish a supposedly finished movie.
And now the "fans" started attacking people; An actor deactivated his socials, because of non stop harassment, all because he was fan casted as Superman.
My crackpot theory is it makes people feel like they're doing something; Because Zack Snyder is friends with James Gunn, went to see the Flash, and making his own shit in Netflix. But his "fans" are still advocating on bringing back the "Snyderverse"; Which mostly consist of terrible to mid movies.
Ninjago’s falling off was literally marked by them giving Zane a robot voice. Like an imprinted time-stamp saying “alright you don’t need to watch anymore.”
Istg the best thing Wild Rift has is the reworked Karma. I know they did that so it is more compatible with the mobile version of the game, but the WR changes to her kit would undoubtedly make her a better champ in league as well, if imported.
My fellow workers
Welcome back to our favorite show Seraphine obtaining her 6th skin in a row that looks exacly the same as the other ones 6/6.6 god bless
Seraphine fans being the Mileena fans of LOL
Oh god the mk11 drama was horrible
Ironic how the character who's whole deal is "Be kind to others, even in the face of adversity" has a fanbase hellbent on gunning for that "Most Toxic Fandom" award. I know it's only a small but vocal minority of Seraphine players but this is worse than usual(the fact that sending death threats to Rioters is the "usual" says alot)
I really don't understand the love for SG Orianna, i mean "Hey, what if the robot girl was... a girl." Okay ???
Ten seconds and I had a seizure, keep up the good work 👍
I like the Elderwood Karthus skin but is it going to be shoehorned into the old god skin line like Nocturne and Ivern?
No, why would it be? They got moved to old god to fix inconsistencies, there's no reason for karthus to be moved
Ivern and Nocturne were always supposed to be the 'old gods' of the Elderwood universe, they just got renamed for the sake of clarity.
2:30 I can't believe this is how I find out Pentakill III: Lost Chapter Karthus doesn't actually exist
Wait what...
There is not Pentakill karthus skin?!?!??!
For being a weird mish-mash of skins, the quality is always top-tier and these are really great. Star Guardian Orianna and Seraphine are definitely my favorite skins out of all the Star Guardian skins, I just really like their designs.
I’m upset they got a Zoe skin I will never have on pc
not sure what skin you're talking about, but if it's for an exclusive skinline then it's not too big a deal but if it's for an established skinline then yeah your feelings are pretty valid
Shaco Rapid-Fire Skin review when?
Man I love the editing on this one. I made me spit my drink 3 times. Well done!
The seraphine stans will not see the pearly gates of heaven
I like how you talk about how skins lines like infernal are generic and then praising the new ori skin despite how lazy, indifferent and unoriginal it is.
100% agree give me the corrupt skins from runeterra
i might be a bit biased since I'm a wr-only player but i much prefer having exclusive content. it's not like we're ever gonna have all of the content on league pc, we dont have a single ultimate skin (just ultimate chromas like jhin's, sold on gacha), we don't have "regular" chromas, there's not half of the skin lines... and it's not realistically possible. we're talking about mobile devices. i remember many people concerned about project mordekaiser possibly exploding their pcs, imagine that on phones. plus wr devs have stated that some skins will never be ported, like coven morgana. some skins get downgraded, like coven evelynn. i like having exclusivity to make up for those limitations.
also, it's a different game, it's a different engine. the models were made from scratch. this is why gragas and malphite look fine on wr and they don't port it to pc, it's a different engine, it's not that simple. so skins for older champions would look like dogshit on pc and people would complain about it.
pc seraphine mains sent literal death threats to devs while wr akali mains were like "oh we're not getting the sg? oh that's sad" and moved on. again, i may be biased, but i think pc players are spoiled and the majority are "core gamers" (ew) who are so loud about wr being "a stupid kids' game" just because it's mobile because GOD FORBID playing mobile games.
My opinion:
Fuck skin porting
Let exclusives be exclusives.
Better yet make it only available for those who have said exclusives.
- Thrash Take Enjoyer.
Poor VFX
What are you talking about Nicky.
Battle Academy has a few good skins. Graves, Kat, Lux ... I guess I can agree with Cait.
two nickyboy videos in one week!Am i dreaming?
I would love Star Guardian Orianna if it wasn't for the robotic voice with the same old lines that they haven't updated yet. I love the aesthetic, I love the dress, I love the familiar, I love everything about the skin EXCEPT that. I can't play it and listen to her same outdated lines with a robotic voice coming out of what is supposed to be a human girl. They should have made it a legendary skin and given her a regular voice that would fit
the little BOOM Familiars are the ONLY good features about SG Seraphine. You cant change my mind.
I really liked the Elderwood Wukong I think he fits the theme pretty well, but, after seeing how cool Soul Fighter is and knowing how Wukong is a trouble maker fighter guy in his lore, damn... That would be pretty cool too
I can't agree with the high note for sg seraphine, it has such a poor vx quality in comparison to her other pc skins. She has no animation when switching from her home guard to a normal stand (her basic one does), also there is only one familiar of hers shown in the home guard and recall (she has two), during the recall her face doesn't move at all, looks like a complete dummy. Hair looks also kinda duh.
I think its cool thats wild rift have exclusive skins , but mannnnnnnnnn there's exclusive hit different and its sad we getting the star guardians , the are skins is good but we already have a lot of them in the PC , for me I would pick project zeri
i disagree with exclusivity, vehemently. as a skin collector, i want all the skins available for everyone! now gimme star guardian gwen in league, please!
PENTAKILL KARTHUS ERASURE IN THE VIDEO 🍅🍅🍅
I will not stand for BA slander! those particles fuckin SLAPS!!
I don't really like exclusives bc if there is something I like and don't have any possibility to get it it makes me seething and malding.
I just want Stargazer Twisted Fate on League PC. His best skin getting wasted on WR :(
Good to see my boi karthus getting an amazing skin
The new karthus skin is the skin I never knew i needed
If they do port more from wildrift... pls port the comic Jhin skin PLS FUCKIN PLS
Oh the supervillain jhin, the best one probably
i doubt they port it as it is a pass skin and i think that the wr exclusive skins lines like stargazer and these comic skins wont come to pc
@@ShunzNish shut up... let me dream atleast.... it cant be the fuckin disco skateboard powered by souls gets her port but our boy doesnt ITS NOT FAIR ;_;
Wild pass skins are exculusive.
My favorita skin is human. Flayed human. I am not a skinwalker.
Idk what Nicky has against battle academia , at least the first batch
Battle Academia Leona was a good skin, just a shame the Eclipse skins just...well eclipse it in every way, seriously the only time Leona players use other skins is if they don't have one of the Eclipse skins.
@@snowpegasi Battle Academia Ezreal is probably Ez's best skin
Seraphine mains are definitely toxic when it comes to skins, and then nothing is ever good enough.
People let's be real , infernal Karthus is still the best Karthus skin ? Right...
I think all wr exclusive skins should be in pc, except wr original skin lines.
I am really confused, xayah and Rakan already have a SG skin, I even have Rakan’s.
Well ocanha every league content is now canon including lor including chip 3:37
How tf did bro forget pentakill 3 karthus?
