Legendary skins are now an expensive Voice Over change with barely new animations.

Mythmaker Jhin, Dark Star Sylas, Arcane Savior Viktor, Chosen of the Wolf Ambessa and now Battle Academia Xayah are just skins with recycled animations and a new voice.

They added a random tech to Battle Academia Xayah's wings and said "ah yes, now its worth 1820RP"

Even Gacha Mordekaiser had no new animations but at least they said they're going to fix him.

I feel like that they're limiting themselves to maintain the champion silhouette, which sucks because you can enhance the fantasy of a champion by giving them fluid animations and still maintain the essence.

The last good legendary is probably Arcane Survivor Jayce, imo. They changed how he walks and yet people still knows that he's Jayce.

I feel like that the champions picked for a legendary are also an important factor on this, because it's not the same giving a legendary to Ambessa that was literally released 4 months ago than to Orianna or Malzahar that could really make use of new animations.

What happened to making legendary skins like Winterblessed Diana, Spirit Blossom Ahri, Dark Star Jhin, High Noon Leona, Space Groove Blitzcrank, etc.

I hope we could see improvements in the future for legendary skins, it's sad to see how they're being released nowadays.
