Hey Preeti,

Thanks for all of your hard work! I absolutely LOVE the skins y'all come out with. (I might have a bit of a problem when it comes to buying skins ahaha :) )

Your team is incredible! I LOVE (again with the caps lol) the general aesthetic and I think you've done an incredible job of one-upping yourself every time. As someone who loves art + fashion, I'd be super excited to see what your team would create if you collaborated with interesting artists, fashion designers and industrial designers.

I would pay through my nose for a bundle that's a Valorant x James Jean collab. Or, Anna Sui. Maybe Alexandre Vauthier. Or, heck, I think Valorant has a deep enough cultural impact that you could probably get Jony Ive. If he's running around designing christmas trees, then why not a skin line?

(OMG, can you imagine Jony Ive sitting crossed legg...

I love the passion in your comment so much! Thank you! <3

if you genuinely work for riot and have any way of communicating with the skins team, please send them my thanks for making xenohunter x protocol + kuronami right click. Basically my favourite features from all skins combined.

I do. I will tell them! We definitely wanted to make the Xenohunter animations that everyone loves even more exciting for a scifi + lunar new year dragon theme!

If you look at these previews and especially all the recent ones then you will find that there will be no crosshair lmao or it's just a tiny dot. I believe that they have a version of the game where you have aimbot added to the code and also the cross hair always on the head level and they must have made it in such a way.

Or I must be so wrong and as op said,, they are goated. No crosshair and 100% accurate?? That's damn impressive.

No, they're just goated and those are bots.

Disappointed that we still have to wait for a proper Outlaw skin

I think I said this on a stream, but it takes a while (several months, or even 1-2 years for a full set) to make a new high tier skin with animation, effects, audio, etc. We didn't want to delay the release of the Outlaw just for top tier skins, so we released Outlaw before high tier skins were ready. And as others have said on this sub, this was also a good approach (not delaying Outlaw just for skins) because it gave players time to learn the gun silhouette (in 1st and 3rd person), sounds (in 1st person), and animations (in 1st person).

The biggest factor that I see when I buy a skin is the kill sound. If it’s good only then I buy it. Araxys had the GOATED kill sound which was an insta cop. Champs 2023 on the other hand had good visuals but I didn’t like the kill sound at all. So, as long as I get eargasms from kill sounds, I’ll buy any skin they bring in.

I think the kill sound is good. Let me know when you try it!

It does!

This might irritate some people but I think the knife is pretty cool

I like the knife too. The right click is really satisfying (I spam right click a lot) and I'm into the variants.

Sounds a lot like the Araxys skins, no? Only draw I see in this this bundle, is that the knife has the xenohunter animation

The sound reminds me of Araxys, which is why I'm so into it. Let me know what you think when you see it in game.

This doesn't matter to the enemy team though. They always hear the same thing. Every player can count to two. Riot just made an excuse.

We want to make sure a player who picks up a skin knows what they've picked up (and looking at the ground, they know what they're picking up). So it's not just sound we're wanting you all to get used to but also the shape of the gun, the default animations, and the sound.

Riot_Preeti: Turn their corpse into an aim trainer bubble like Iso's skill.

I didn't even realize it's like his skill. That's amazing. :D

You or anyone else on your team can pop the Finisher bubble (and you can also pop it by walking into it), so it's gonna be fun to see who can get to it first.

Glad you like it! Might finally swap out my white Reaver karambit.

As someone who plays with vandal champions 2021 and phantom champions 2022, this bug happens on both guns. It has been going on for about a month or two I would say? I thought it was changed too, looking forward a fix :)

This should fix it for both. Tell us if it doesn’t!

Will do!! Thanks for all the team and your hard work! Community really appreciates it :)

Np! Thanks for reporting bugs like this! We don’t always know when something breaks because there are so many skins. So appreciate it when you all report stuff so we can go back and fix it and figure out what we did wrong.

Yeah it’s my favorite knife but I haven’t been able to use it because it just wrecks my ears 💀

It should be fixed next patch! Let us know if it’s still an issue after that!
