Was the width of current Vel'Koz's ult deemed to thick and one of the goals of the VFX to change that? I've never seen any complaints about it previously and I would think "big area effect damage that hurts a lot and slows" is as good a reason as any to have a lot of visual noise for. And especially since the ability is THE HIGH POINT of this champion it should have a big visual effect.

Yeahhhh! That looks a lot better. I really like the burnt grass too.

They're pumping these out pretty frequently that's cool

can you also buff him? giving his Q 50 more speed and 5 more movement speed would fix a lot of his weakness a the moment. I have over 3000 velkoz games and play him since release and this season he feels more shit than ever.

even tho you're just one person, you can't imagine how much i appreciate seeing old champions getting modernized, it feels like we're being starved for content for our old faithful champions from the early seasons but you're like the light at the end of the tunnel. really, thank you.

Looks great! Except for the ult. The actual laser is too thin and I don't like the bright light showing the end of the the laser. Makes it look like a tube. Really the effects that are there JUST to show the hitbox should not be as defined as they are. Show the hitbox with the ability itself, not with a flashing hitbox rectange.

love the q and autos. The w looks a lil underwhelming, looks more like a sidewalk crack than a void rift u know?

Looks really solid, love the new Q! Only thing that is bugging me is the E in his base skin. I feel like it is fading away too fast, especially this part

Everything looks so beautiful now, Im SO satisfied.

Only complaints would be to make his W feel more impactful perhaps, and E in Infernal and Blackfrost to have a bit more visuals? Thats all really!

First of all, I love your work! I've been following your stuff since before your time at riot, when you made the darkstar ori fan VFX. I feel so honoured that you now get to touch my boi <3

I absolutely love the update and the w in particular looks amazing I think. However I have a few nitpicks:

• the e of infernal and blackfrost now look really out of place, with all the other, older skins now having way nicer indicators. The blue circles just don't fit. For reference, arclights e works amazingly!
• the ult honestly looks kinda... flat? Idk what it is but it just looks kinda weird, like it is in a plane on the ground. Maybe it's the ending part? I get that it's for visual clarity but without a massive glowing impact ball of destruction it just doesn't feel as powerful? Is there maybe some way to include that again without it overwhelming the line of the actual ult stop?
• also I am kinda sad that people will now be less likely to underestimate my ...

I'm loving it! However the E projectile animation feels a bit weak. What I mean by that is that I can barely see it (even in the old VFX). I remember the first time I picked up Vel'koz, I was surprised that Yasuo was able to stop my E with his windwall, as I didn't expect nor felt that it is a projectile due to the lack of VFX.

It would be amazing if that could be addressed as it feels like its Brand's W, ie not a projectile at the moment. Thank you for all the work regardless and have a good one!

I'm loving the update, the Q looks so pretty, but I am a little unsure on the W update.

In the current iteration, Velkoz rips a rift into the void, which shows this massive void energy on the ground in said rift, while the update does indeed still keep a rift, on the base and battlecast skin, I'm really missing that massive glowy rift.

for example: https://i.imgur.com/p5CyBlx.png

This is personal ofc but I'd rather just have the old effect and make the colours pop a bit more, but that might be visual clutter in team fights so maybe that was a design goal.

So good!! I love playing Velkoz and this has made me very happy!

Feedback:

• Main issue is that the ult feels too blocky. I think that the actual laser should be thicker to reflect the hitbox instead of focusing on a rectangle underneath it.
• In base Velkoz, the projectile part of the E ability is barely visible compared to other skins.
• The Q hitbox indicator (or whatever you call the light blue thing that appears when you're aiming Q -before using it- ) could be updated to show the hitbox of the ability.
• Also, it was not shown here, but when Velkoz spawns after death, there's a void-y portal thing that looks pretty crusty. Was that updated too?

That's all! Thanks for doing all these VFX updates for older champs <3

Thanks man. I appreciate your reply. Hope you’ve been well! :)

I didn't think Vel'koz needed one. But these are still greatly appreciated
