If it's ultimate (or legendary, whichever is better?) I'll pee my pants and shell out immediately.

If it's a legendary, given what i have seen, i don't think it will be worth the price.

EDIT: No more solo queue confirmed, and Riot are trying to shittly defend a shitty system.

(1) There's no if about it; (2) the only leaked gameplay footage is of the recall animation, so I'm not sure how you could have an opinion on the appropriateness of the price at this point, and (3) you don't play Thresh, do you? Deep Terror, Championship, and Blood Moon are his only commonly-available skins and all are 975-tier (SSW being limited).

He's never even had a 1350-tier skin, so he's way overdue for a Legendary or Ultimate skin to fill the void. Many were hoping it would either be Void-themed or something similar to this fan concept for an "Arclight Thresh" which, similarly to Justicar Aatrox, turns his classic lore on its head and presents him as a "savior" of souls, rather than a warden. I was excited about something like that, but I'm sure this Void-esque Thresh and any other Dark Star-line skins will be well worth the price.

This, basically i can't see any reason why it would be able to top the other 3 skins he has to the point where you can justify the extra cost, all 3 are really well done skins.

i personally like pool party rek'sai, though i can see why people wouldn't, and eternum is fairly bad.

My problem is putting a legendary on a champion with what is arguably some of the better low tier skins.

So reading the patch notes right now, is the Zed change actually a nerf?

Now he just pokes through minions harder, for the most minimal damage loss, this to me is a massive buff to poking people down (something zed already does) and the fall off is slightly less all in damage (which he will still one shot you if he hits his stuff.)

EDIT: Nvm i was reading it wrong and attributing it to the Q fall off through minions, when it's the multiple shuriken hits that is making the change

EDIT 2: "Your shop" seems like it is actually personalized this time, i pulled Ekko, Zac, Kindred, Nidalee, Kog'maw and Elise skins, and all of these are either strong champions of mine, or ones that i have played recently (Zac is one i have picked up recently.) and bought 3 of the 6.

It's with the patch i assume, so it might not be up for anyone else (OCE gets patches first now.)

1) Pool Party Rek'Sai is amazing, what are you on.
2) If you're going to mention old champions, you have to realize that lot of those champions have
really bad skeletons
. Like, really bad. Safecracker Eve is the best she can POSSIBLY get until she gets a VU. Dragonslayer Pantheon was pushed to the extreme limit of what his model will allow, and many of the old champions also don't have lots of flashy abilities to emphasise with particles (like Xin Zhao and Rammus).

It's because he's one of those champions that either have really amazing games, or really terrible games if he gets shut out/the enemy team get fed enough to ignore his ult.

Mind you i still don't think i've seen a good Fiddlesticks, i've seen average ones that all they had was his ult, since the rework i haven't seen any of those early ganking ones that shut out a lane so damn hard.
