I understand that this skin would have worked a lot better with other champs, and that Ezreal doesn't need any more skins but I like how they changed Ezreal's usual blonde and blue palette into this lighter pink pastel one. I also think the costume looks really good on him along with the facial adornments

      @therealkenny6 Рік тому +8

      I think they didn’t make it in BECAUSE they are already whimsical creatures. It’s difficult to make a faerie court Lillia skin innovative because Lillia’s base skin already looks like it could be a faerie court skin; same can be said of Neeko. Trying to do so anyways runs the risk of another Spirit Blossom Lillia situation; the skin was largely considered to be boring because it was basically just Lillia again. Nothing new or creative done with its design.
      It’s kind of like how Senna and Lucian were not given Sentinel skins during the SOL event because their base designs are already Sentinel skins. Or how Infernal Brand would never happen because Brand is already infernal by default.

    I know that its dumb, but Ezreal's pastel color pallet (depending on what what reference site you use) is indeed a summer. I think specifically in makeup and clothes, bolder colors are spring while pastels are considered summer. When talking in reference to artistic color theory this is not the case, which as an artist always trips me up, but when people do things like "color matching" for your appearance, what color belongs where is not as intuitive as you would think.

      @@ludekmaly3900 Hi, like I said in my comment, the way colors are seasonally categorized changes based on the source and for what you’re using it for. For example, in more traditional artistic color theory, those examples you have are absolutely correct. And they feel more intuitive in my opinion as well. However, in other practices, like color matching based on appearance, pastels are considered more summery and bolder pinks, purples, yellows, ect. are considered spring colors. I'm not saying that the coloration is good, I personally think its dumb, but there is at least different categorization of colors than feels intuitive.

    @peteartieda58 Рік тому +11

    Personally I think the lore of this skin line is interesting and definitely has potential for expansion. Karma isn't actually supposed to be crowned queen but some unnamed character/s put her on the throne for their own reasons (it's giving Leblanc). While the actual queen to be crowned Fiora was sidelined. Then you have the aspect of the 4 season kingdoms. I think the winter kingdom is shunned by everyone so they have their own queen mentioned in Karma's lines to Katarina, the unseelie queen.
    As for the colors I think there's some way to rationalize the choices they made. Summer is all the bright pinks/violets, light blues some greens. It's all of the other season's colors. Spring only has 1 represention but I think they'll be more shades of blue and purple with green. Like they represent the clear skies of spring. Autumn is darker oranges and red with deep violets. While Winter is white with minimal accents of blue or green, mimicking a tundra biome.

    when this skinline first got announced, while I was happy Kalista was getting something really nice looking, I wasn't expecting to care for this line at all. I was expecting it to be basically exactly what you'd expect from a skinline about fairies, bright colours, sparkles, your typical happy go lucky champs (besides Kalista). I was really surprised when pbe went up and the skinline was not that, that I wound up liking it a lot more than I thought I would. I do think fans have fixated too heavily on who should have been in this skinline based on aesthetics, and completely neglected the political drama aspect of it, where champs like Katarina do indeed fit in. One of the writers for the line, Riot Ten Paces I think? even said it could be described as magical Game of Thrones with faeries kinda validated me in my frustration that people only focused on who fit into the bright and bubbly aspect of the line. But I digress, I'm pleasantly surprised with Faerie Court, moreso than I expected to be

    as a folklore fan (and dnd nerd) the seasonal courts weren't something riot just made up, the fae organise in many courts often underneath the labels of seelie (based in light and contracts, generally good with their wrath needing to be provoked) and unseelie (scheming tricksters associated with darkness and mistrust)
    they are also traditionally divided into presiding over the four seasons, with the summer court often being merged with the seelie court/the winter court with the unseelie in fictional adaptations, although the idea of seasonal courts appear to have more contemporary origins compared to the classifications of seelie and unseelie which stem from various ancient gaelic folktales and beliefs

Fairy suits this skinline more since Fae-rie tend to be a bit more dark and mischievous and fairy are your typical lighthearted cutesy winged creatures, I still like the technical spelling more

    It might have been too deep a cut, but it'd be fun to have a few redcaps. Mundo's the go-to crazy guy but a bolder choice would be to completely rethink an existing hunter, like Rengar or Rek'sai, or give it to someone whose silly movement fits the faerie theme, like Zac or Zeri.
    I legit love the idea of a Redcap Rek'sai.

    As someone who's a big nut for fae stuff these skins are kinda meh and a bit basic. Fae has some mystical and fantastical stuff but as Nicky pointed out there's also some pretty grim and horrifying stuff; for every pixie, fairy, and nymph we have stuff like dulahan, hags, and spriggans. These skins feel like a very walmart definition of fae stuff, things you'd see on a grade schoolers poster.

  • @Stolanis
    @Stolanis Рік тому +1

    It's fine, faerie is basically the ancestor word of fairy. If they really wanted to ramp up the oldworldiness of this skin line they would've called it the FAE Court to really distinguish it, but I guess they didn't wanna scare off people who only know about the cutesy kind of fairies so they chose an innocuous middle-ground.
    In fact this whole skin-line reeks of that, since traditionally the Fae were... not nice. Typically the Winter Court is thought of as the 'bad guys', but the simple fact is that ALL of the Lords and Ladies kinda looked down on humanity as lesser beings: a Fae being nice to a human is either them taking pity on you or luring you in with shiny things so they can do something horrible to you later.
    The legends that come to mind when I think of Fae are cradle-snatchers who stole human babies (and operated similarly to vampire rules vis a vis being allowed into a human's house, hence why you should NEVER leave a baby near a window) and that you should NEVER eat or drink anything while in Fae lands or they *OWN YOUR SOUL.* Or something like that.
    Ultimately, the Fae are supposed to represent the caprice of Nature: at times kind, at times cruel, but always mercurial and unable to be understood with human logic. In some ways they're similar to the monsters and gods of the Cthulhu Mythos: they do what they want according to their own alien values; while you can potentially gain great power and knowledge from consorting with them, the only real winning move is not to play.

    • @DuskEalain

    I think this skins are inspired by the Dresden files. They too have a Faerie court with the courts being separated in Winter and Summer (not all 4 seasons) with a powerful faerie queen. They too have also all the other pixies and redcaps and whatever. Karma as a few voice lines that talk about things to books talk about too, like the Unseelie. Either that or they take inspiration from the general folklore that the Dresden Files take from too.

      The point of skins is to change the theme of the champion. If the champion itself would mostly fit in the skin line with their base skin, then I would argue that they are NOT in fact a good fit. Like, should we get an Infernal Brand ?

    This skinline isn't for everyone, which is fair. I'm sure when Resistance/Battlecast skins come out, the Faerie Court crowd probably won't be interested much. Everyone has their own tastes and not all skinlines will resonate with anyone.
    As for the mixed coloring, we have preexisting ideas of what colors mean which season but art is subjective and colors have a wide range of symbolism. Fiora's cooler colors may not make sense for spring, but perhaps she represents the rainy days of spring. These deviations make you think critically about the art, which is always fun.
    Normally I'd agree about Ezreal not needing another skin (Porcelain is probably his least necessary one) but I'm biased as hell. I love Ezreal, and this is the type of skin I've been waiting for him to get since I started playing 9 years ago. I hope Varus gets a pretty skin this year too.
