don't understand why they're giving this to Caitlyn, it doesn't suit her at all

it'd be much better on someone like Vayne or Quinn imo

Quinn already got a skin not too long ago, so that's probably one of the reasons it didn't go to her.

But disregarding the reasoning behind it, I really like the splash art :3 It may not fit Caitlyn's characterization, but it still looks really cool.
Thanks to Ubnoxius for the sig!

I'm pretty sure that IronStylus said something along the lines of "this is how we want Caitlyn to be." AKA; less ridiculous clothing, more tech-looking.

I'm not saying this is their entire vision, obviously they made it a skin instead of making it her VU, but they do intend to eventually make Caitlyn more in line with Jayce and Vi, visually.

And I for one, am A-ok with it.

Her head looks really off though, and it doesn't really look like Cait. I think its a lot better than the Nidalee one though.

But that skirt is just so... Stupid.

That gun just pushes a bad button for me. It looks like someone folded a pitchfork down on both ends.

Edit: ALSO, the sights are out of line! Why?

They should change the skin name to "Definitely not Caitlyn" because that definitely doesn't look or have any resemblance to caitlyn.

This skin idea resembles the 'Dark Elder' concept from Warhammer 40,000. As a concept it's kinda okay, but it really doesn't shout ' Caitlyn' to me either. I would have thought this is a concept that fitted Vayne rather than Caitlyn.

I sort of agree with what people are saying that out of all the ADC to get this skin Caitlyn is probably the least likely but at the same time I actually kinda like it...its like when Heath Ledger was picked as the Joker and everyone thought that was one of the dumbest moves ever then it turned out he was actually one of the coolest Jokers ever :D
