Dragon Slayer Braum, Dragon Slayer Pantheon, and Blade Queen Lissandra on the PBE!

Exciting new skin's from Riot's visual design department have dropped onto the PBE this week. The skin's revealed "Dragon Slayer Braum" for our new champion, "Dragon Slayer Pantheon" who severely needed some love in the terms of out dated skin options, and finally "Blade Queen Lissandra" who needed a new skin since her other one in my opinion is just a recolor. In terms of spell visuals I believe it's fair to say they will all cost 975rp except Pantheon's who I believe will be 1350 due to the extensive work they did on his spells such as his ultimate in which when Pantheon leaps to the sky he grows fiery dragon wings. While these lot of skins in my opinion are the best Riot has released in awhile, there will always be controversy in how the skins are developed. In this case many fans are irked at how the splash art of Dragon Slayer Pantheon depicts him as almost having dark gun metal grey armor with dark brown trim while in game it's a very light grey with tannish gold trim. Riot has replied to the concerns of the players saying " We've discussed this during skin reviews. We know there's a huge disconnect from the splash.Panth simply needs a model update. Also the splash art is very dark to bring nice contrast from the fire. While it's badass it does create a higher expectation than we can deliver with the current panth model." In addition to these new coming skins, Night Hunter Rengar has made a return to the PBE with the ability to pull his hood over his head when he taunts. Here are the videos and two splash arts revealed of these skins courtesy of surrenderat20.net. So until next time, good luck in the Fields of Justice!
