You did an awesome job and I absolutely love this set.

I am not easy to please and usually very critical about new skins (e.g. "not another sword", "a kill-counter only for the ongoing match?!", "why no magepunk vandal/phantom", "where is my butterfly knife with effects", "not another greenscreen skin" etc).

But this bundle is literally what I wanted.

A super clean melee preferably a smaller one like a dagger, butterfly knife or karambit with a nice pullout/inspect (crazy spins, check). It also shouldn't be too basic, so maybe some effects (champions aura, check).

As I prefer using the vandal over the phantom, I thought I was set with having the prime and reaver vandal. But oh boy, this will actually replace them both.

I always thought I need a different shooting sound and some fancy reload animations, but no. This is so much better. A super clean, premium "default vandal", that has a nice kill sound and the best finisher in the game hand...

This was a really sweet message, thank you. You definitely understand what we were going for in terms of the esports Champions brand. I LOVE the super saiyan comparison! Never thought to compare it to that, but it works!

I’m always happy when we satisfy players who say they’re normally really critical. Your complaints above were too real haha! We hold ourselves to a really high standard. I’m also a fan of Reaver and this skin is what got me to swap off it (and my Ruination sword).

I honestly don't get all the negative comments this time around. Being able to do the Brim finisher every time would make it less special. Having the aura all the time is basically the same thing. The way it is rn you get a boost in confidence if you see your gun glow.

It's a nicer default vandal that rewards you for being good. Which is a refreshing and fitting theme for the champions bundle.

You get it! We very much went with this skin having features that celebrate greatness and aspirational play, much like being a champion. That’s why so much is tied to frags.

Also, this knife has been highly anticipated by players. It's good to not have music so the knife can appeal to the greater audience of the game. Some players might not have liked the music and wouldn't have bought it as a result.

We debated this a lot and you both get it!

Little bit unrelated but how does the Champion Aura effect work? Does it only glow if youre the topfragger of the game?

Correct! Top frag in the entire game (no ties).

Y’all killed this skin. You’ll see a lot negativity because that’s the nature of this sub, but as a lurker and appreciator of effort in skins this is the sickest thing y’all have done yet. You shouldn’t be able to see the Easter egg every time you get a finisher because that’s not the nature of the game. Well done in my book I hope I have time to buy it between family business tomorrow

Thanks for the kind words! And happy thanksgiving!!!

We thought about this in development because this Finisher is so different. Basically, we didn’t want this to interfere with someone trying to pick up a gun skin or defuse the bomb. So we made the “box” it triggers in pretty small and also added a 1-2 second delay so you need to be standing still and looking for it to happen (vs it happening accidentally). It would be confusing if you ran thru it accidentally to defuse or when trying pick up a gun and then bam! you were taken into this red world.

Think it was in a post on the competitive Val sub about this skin but the brim daddy in the sky was meant to be an Easter egg and not something you but the skin for. Think like killing someone early when going to defuse the spike. With that intent it's unlikely they'll change things but it would be cool for them to so it's something we can see more often

Correct - it's an easter egg. The Finisher on its own is actually pretty cool, but seems like everyone is running into the other world so they're not looking at it. :D

In the normal Finisher, the person killed turns to stone and crumbles. The lightning syncs with the music. If you inspect, the lightning goes crazy. And the music is cool.

why is brim in the sky? whats the lore behind it?

It's inspired by the Champions anthem/music video, "Die for You."

hey im wondering if daddy brim only appears for the person who has the skin. im also wondering if you walk out of the sphere thingy will brim go away?

  1. Brim Daddy appears for anyone who goes into the spot. But it's small enough that usually only 1 person can fit.
  2. Yes, Brim Daddy goes away, but he reappears if you step back in.

riot peeti said they want to make it as easter egg but yeah i want it like spectrum while it instant turn into brimstone when i inspect too

Spectrum also has an "easter egg" Finisher when the bomb is planted. The Finisher music lasts longer and goes into a different, "chill" part of the song. You only have enough time for that part of the song to play if the spike is planted.

Also, the Spectrum music is slightly different if you're the killer vs. the person getting killed.

Thank you! I'll TELL the team!

Also, you think they added mental pay2win aimbot to this one?

Edited because Sean made fun of me. :(

That finisher looks so sick, but i need to be honest, you get 5 seconds to do the whole thing, its kinda bad.

It seems that it will be only working if you finish someone really close to the body, so you enter the circle and inspect the gun.

Because if you finish from a far you really need to run to see inside of the finish

It's an easter egg, so we don't expect it to happen often. We still think the Finisher and music is pretty cool without it.
