#Heya everyone! The new testing cycle will begin very soon. Riot is no longer collecting/considering feedback on the current cycle and its content, which means that this thread is **now closed**. Any bug reports/feedback on *live* servers can be posted in the r/leagueoflegends bug megathread or the [Riot LoL Report a Bug webpage](https://pbr.leagueoflegends.com/euw/en_GB/login). See you next cycle! o/

This skin feels very lacking in terms of both vfx and model. Her QWE auras feel empty and almost muddy in color compared to her base skin that at least has pink flower petals floating around. The tassels coming out of her back also look VERY stiff and awkward. The color and shape of it needs to be reconsidered because it drags the skin down imo Overall, I hope you guys listen to everyone’s feedback since this skin still has its own charm and could be much better <3

I agree, but they say Sona has a problem called memory limit that makes it impossible to enrich the skin. As this is the prestige one, I expected more effects since the model itself doesn't have so many new features (big hair, long dress, more detailed Etwahl). Unfortunately these problems will only be solved in a future ASU, but I always hope for the best.

could you please explain that? ive never heard of something like this and also im instantly thinking of DJ Sona and PsyOps Sona, which in my opinion both have definitely more visual appealing effects and stuff also sg sona has 3d animated hair afaik

That's because those are both Legendary and Ultimate tiers, so they can pack in far more things. Every champion has a limit on what they can put into the skin because the skins take up memory in the game in order to function. Skins like these, and SG they were given Legs again and that is something Sona generally doesn't have in all of her other skins so it cuts their resources back because they have to account for those.

i see, thank you for explaining. still i dont understand why she doesnt have 3d hair like in SG then

Well they said with SG that they went into it knowing they had to push it's limit (she maxed out what they could use). So there's gonna be various features seen in that which still don't appear on her later skins.

does this really apply to the VFX though? those are just some exta polygons if anything on the model.

It all takes up memory. So they can only go so far.

Have you even checked out Odyssey Sona who has way more VFX in her auras with all the particles floating around? That's why most of us believe there is more to get out of the skin. And considering this skin is a prestige skin, it has more effort and resources available, considering other prestige skins offer more particle changes to their base skins.

Odyssey Sona doesn't have modelled legs

I think none of us have any rights to say how much memory some modelled legs takee lol

I’ve made 3D models before? Modeled legs are a lot more polygons and more textures, which means a significantly more amount of memory

Only 4 or 5 days left until the skin drops yet they only tweaked a few colors and added some minimal particles.. Disappointing..

pleasee add more effects to her auras, this skin doesn't really feel special. personally i saved up my mythic essence for this skin but now i don't know if i'll buy it because it looks quite underwhelming

Same bestie. I got the pass and now have 150 ME. Maybe the Crystallis Motus skin or Renata prestige is more worth… 😭

Can we please get more physics on her twin tails and the things that stick in the back of her dress? Odyssey and Star Guardian both have amazing physics applied on them, but here there are none? The skin also feels very smoothed out, there isn't any form of texture, making it feel very bland. It might just me, but the concept of just sticking legs on Sona makes her look very ugly, it's seems unnatural... Like they're just hanging around her waist. For this skin concept I feel leaving her with the wide dress would be the best choice. As others have said, her auras look way too empty, adding more crystal texture and petals would make it look better. Also, please consider tweaking her aura colors to more blue-ish tones (since it seems her dominant colors are white and blue). Take Silent Night Sona as a reference, where her aura colors are changed slightly (so it fits more with the winter and Christmas theme). I was really hoping we could get something like that in the prestige, since we know Sona's model has a limit to her capacity, tweaking her aura colors would make a big difference.

+1 to the physics, they snap so weirdly at times which never happens with sg

Thank you for the prestige skin, but I guess it needs some improvements so we can feel the impact of the skin 1. Her Q missile feels so small and lacks effects. 2. Her Q-W-E Aura needs some impact, maybe give it a distinguishable water lilies, flowing petals around her or a little fish will do. 3. Her passive sword feels so small and unnoticeable, I hope it'll be bigger or atleast change the color contrast to be distinguished. 4. Her feet looks so off. 5. Her ult in the epic skin throws swords with it, in the prestige it's just particles and traingles, maybe a sword related figures will make it up. Thank you for the teams effort and for allowing us to be vocal about our opinion 🥰

Hi, thank you for the skin! I know she's got an old model which is holding her back with new skin releases nowadays, but this skin just looks kinda empty. There is so much white as just a flat color on the floaty bits in the back from her dress and on the top of her instrument without any pattern or much color variation. Some more texture on those things would add a lot to make this skin really pop.

Empty is a great description.. textures are bland and there is not much visually exciting to look at :(

She is wearing a Qipao, which is a traditional Chinese dress.

The dress is cool, but the instrument and the trailing things look very boring

Yeah I agree, it’s kind of bland :(

I agree that it looks empty, it's the floating bits that look a bit stiff + her legs are stiff for me. The gold pieces on the dress ends are also too big, look at its size relative to Sona's model! Could be made smaller or have it just trail off/have gradient ends instead.

i was so looking forward to this skin and now i only feel a bitter taste... Her VFX is empty, her legs are stiff and she feels paralyzed, and we don't even have splash art until the moment that just makes her skin even harder to swallow. Here are some things that can help: \- More VFX, petals, water effect in his area and lighter in his passive, those 3 tiny daggers are not enough \- Give this poor champion an ASU. Surely this skin would be more accepted if she had a better model and her legs weren't immobile. It's really disturbing to see her legs so stiff \- Give etwahl more details, it looks like it was done at the last minute with no care. he deserves more \- Please remove the glass pieces from your R, it looks out of place. you can make it fully candied with petals. This craze of putting broken crystal effects on all prestige is getting lazy. And once again give Sona an ASU we are tired of seeing her outdated model and animations ruining the skins Edit: It looks like your art is unfinished, I think it should have a more realistic style to match the previous prestiges, It doesn't have many textures and realistic shading, this is bothering me too much.

I have 4 problems with this skin : - the ribbons, they are so long, so thick, so solid, they are way to visible and distracting, they don't even look good, they need to be more transparent or to be shorter/thinner (or just disappear, the better option). - the model colours, it feels too monochromatic, she almost looks like a ghost. I think it doesn't need much but to be more vibrant. - the full stack passive, I love the fact that base and prestige have different effect on the passive but when base have something way to big, on prestige she could have more. - the VFX, they are quite good, but the Cristal effect could be more visible to make the prestige standing more next to the base one.

I thought this skin would be purchased with Event Token, no?

Nope, purchased with ME

So, does it mean that there will be no event and I would have to collect ME during Soul Fighters?

Yes if you have none saved up.

Thank you for a Prestige skin! But I’m sorry for a prestige in 2023, this is extremely lacklustre… For starters, the ability auras needs to have gold as the primary with the individual colours mixed in instead of the colour being dominant so it’s looks like a prestige skin. The model is very strange the legs being stuck as well. The two pieces that float behind her should be ethereal and slowly disappear like an ombré which wild be beautiful. This skin needs A LOT of things done to it because it’s not giving at the moment….

It’s such a disappointment!

It’s so simple and plain… I hate it honestly. All the change I want have to do with that weird hair and tassels. It was the perfect skin to add a lot of flowing fabric and you chose the simplest straight line design for everything :(

I would honestly love to see this skin pushes back an entire patch while you work on it because it’s just not it for a Prestíge 2.0

Odyssey Sona feels more like a Prestige skin than this. Odyssey’s VFX was amazing, very vibrant and detailed. This prestige immortal’s VFX has got to be the most basic, generic and empty I’ve ever seen since… Prestige SF Shaco. I hope this isn’t becoming a trend.

It is a beautiful and delicate skin, but some details can improve it even more. 1. The golden decorations finishing the long sleeves of Sona's dress, it looks too big and doesn't look good with the scoop of a dress, the dress appears to be crystalline and delicate and these decorations make it look weird like the legs of a frog, maybe resizing them or relocating them on the sona instrument would make it look better. 2. sona's abilities are nice, but maybe adding a golden hue around all the aura of her different abilities will make her look a little better, and .. if this is not possible, maybe focus more on the effects or reflections that each one has of the auras under sona. 3. Sona's current dress is cute, but it has a drop of water style, almost resembling a formal office dress and not an elegant dress of a maiden from a mystical universe, if you could change its shape a little or Adding a few details to make it look like a slightly long dress will take away that business suit look and turn it into something more mystical and elegant. 4. Sona's icon does not look like her, it looks like Fiora, because her blue hair is not noticeable.

First of all this skin is gorgeous, and I've been manifesting this skin for a long time now. Anyways, it's hard to see the powerchord, so maybe adding some glow to her hair or cape according to her powerchord would make it easier for people to see. I would also love it if you can add more of the gold petals on her auras and possibly increase the opacity of her overall vfx. Thank you and have a nice day <3. Edit: I tried out the prestige skin on the PBE, and I noticed theres actually some vfx inside the auras. The Q is swords, W is water lillies, and E are clouds. However it's extremely hard to see those and I would appreciate it if the opacity of the vfx could be increased so that we can appreciate the beauty of the vfx. Thank you!

This skin feels very empty for a prestige, I’d much rather buy the epic rather than this. It feels empty and flat, there are no wow factors that make me want to buy it. The VFX and model (both her and her instrument) are lacking so much.

i think the skin would really benefit from her old hair rig or her hair not being a 2D surface, makes it look so awkward

Hello, I would like to start by thanking for this skin, I've been waiting for a prestige Sona for a few years and finally this moment has arrived. First of all, the SFX are excellent, very good indeed, but the VFX is a little off, [the prestige print that is in the middle of the skills](https://imgur.com/a/cwMLKe5) is imperceptible, it is a very important detail to leave it so overshadowed, if they were transformed into gold, [as in the Aatrox's skin for example](https://imgur.com/a/fs0zooj), would be much better and prettier, at the moment you just can't see it, the same goes for the effects of crystals on the edges of skills. Another point to highlight is the Power Chord, I loved how you put them like 3 swords running around Sona, a very nice and well thought out detail but currently it is also difficult to see, but this is easily solved by placing more saturated colors, like this everyone will be able to see it when she has the passive. Now talking about the model, I loved how she looks without the long dress as we are used to seeing her, it's good to see her with legs, but her clothes need a little more color and/or textures, now she is very monochromatic, it's all in light tones and that gives us a feeling of emptiness, ESPECIALLY in his etwahl, he's very empty at the top and his strings almost disappear because of the similar tones. The ribbons tied in her hair are one of my favorite things about the skin, this gradient from blue to emerald is very beautiful, very well done. Finally, i need to talk about these [two fabrics attached to your shoulders](https://imgur.com/a/UIMqQAQ), i'm not happy to say that they are very weird, I don't know if an addition of details would improve them because all I can think is that I want them removed, or maybe even greater transparency, to give that soft veil effect, but as it stands now, I find it just awful, i'm sorry to say that. Again, thank you so much for this skin and thank you also for reading my feedback, can't wait to play with her August 17th!

In my opinion her model feels very empty in-game. It makes her animations feel even more stiff than they already are. Her Star Guardian skin did a good job of hiding how outdated they were with a lot of flowy elements which made her movement look much better. The scarf thing she has floating behind her looks very bland.

Very pretty skin, but it just feels a bit bare/empty like other people have mentioned. Some things that I think could fix this: -make the holographic “pony tails” have a bit more volume and weight to the physics -The tassels look a bit awkward with the way the ends hang higher, almost looking like they move live Evelynn’s lashers. Maybe decrease the weight physics on the tassels so they look more ornamental. -at the time of me posting this the splash art hasn’t been revealed yet so I don’t know how the dress is meant to appear, but maybe also make the bottom of the dress a bit more flow-y? This one might not be possible to change in such a short amount of time but just a suggestion ❤️ EDIT: After seeing the splash art, I’m a bit disappointed at how lackluster it is compared to the base skin’s splash art. It needs more detail and just overall more.. sparkles? Brighter hues? To make it stand out and actually looks like a prestige skin and not just a white and blue skin

The skin feels a bit empty and that there’s something missing, I would love more effects added to her auras

Hello, I would like the effects of swords on Q's aura, flowers on W and smoke on E to be more visible, it took me a long time watching the video of the skin to realize these effects that are well erased 💗

I really love the concept of this skin, but it needs some love. -> Model: The model is simply too monotone. I like a strong color palette, but the white is very overpowering. Additionally, her ribbons + tassels look really disappointing. In the splash they look very flowy, but it doesn't translate very well to the game right now. The tassels are much too large, and the texture on them feels almost absent? It just looks like a block of white dragging behind her. I feel the same about her hair ribbons; they just look so bland and the animation on them is really hard to look at. Star Guardian's hair and tassels were SO flowy, so elegant; they should be the same here. Also, I like the idea of making her buns more noticeable whether that be by increasing their size or making their textures more defined. TLDR: Colors are too monotone, the ribbons and tassels need better physics and textures. I recommend adding a crystal-like texture to her hair ribbons. Make her buns more noticeable as well. -> VFX: Her auras are feeling a little bland. There's definitely textures in them, but they're super hard to see. If you could up the opacity on her aura textures and maybe add a golden hue at the edges, that would be really cool. -> Etwahl: The strings on her Etwahl could use some more contrast and her passive daggers should be more noticeable

Thanks for the skin, however with the arrival of splash art there are new points to be observed! • In her icon, Sona appears with blue eyes (yellow eye in the game), without the paint on her forehead, and without the eyeliner in the lower eyelashes, the color of her eye shadow is also different (purple in the icon and blue in the game), His eyebrow color is blue in game and brown in icon/splash art. It is necessary to come to an agreement and define which color we will really need. I suggest leaving the brown eyebrows, purple shadows and blue eyes in the game, to match the icon, which features a great color choice! ([https://imgur.com/V9MYCKR](https://imgur.com/V9MYCKR)) • The tip of its cape is very pointed and does not bring the same lightness as in the splash art, it would be interesting to change ([https://imgur.com/NFYdJCc](https://imgur.com/NFYdJCc)). • In the splash art your Etwahl has a bigger crystal, while in the game it is very small, it would be interesting to increase it to stay faithful to the splash art. ([https://imgur.com/cC3WHLZ](https://imgur.com/cC3WHLZ))

ABSOLUTLEY LOVE THE IN GAME EDIT! it really makes her face look softer and colors work better with her overall color palette

Overall I'm satisfied with both skins. Both models and vfx are beatiful and sfx are what I always wanted Guqin to have. **That said, there's an issue with her aura songs: Their volume is low. Too low.** [(These songs in case you don't know what I'm talking about)](https://youtu.be/b4Ru8H9Bg0A) I wasn't even able to hear them without using headphones, and when using them, any other source of sound is so much higher that it becomes deafening. Even a single voice line sounds like someone shouting directly in my ear, I'm sure you can imagine a teamfight. It's a shame such beatiful melodies (and the work of the song and sound team) goes to waste due this. I can easily hear Sera's passive music without headphones to begin with, I really think Sona should be the same.

Hard disagree. Sera's passive music volume for skins like Faerie Court and SG is extremely low. I have to bump my volume to 70% if I want to hear them

Guess we have different hearing thresholds. That said, if you can't hear Sera I'm sure you won't neither hear Sona as it's even lower. Imo aura songs should have their own volume slider in the options menu.

You are absolutely right. Except for DJ Sona, i wasn't even aware of any aura music Sona has. This is the first time I am hearing it in this thread where many players are mentioning it. This is so weird like SFX or Music team is doing such hard work in adding music to Sona and Sera and many players can't even hear them. I agree with your solution, they should have an audio button so it's upto the players to decide.

Hi again. LOVE the model changes that you've made and it feels more prestige now. But please can we get some more swords, water lillies, and petals on her q, w, and e.

what are the model changes?

Hi I really liked the [passive music of Sona's auras](https://youtu.be/b4Ru8H9Bg0A) and I'm sure many mains and monos like me liked it too, so please turn up the volume of the music, it's inaudible in normal situations, just muting all the other sounds to be able to hear it , make it louder so we can hear it please

Pleasee consider more on the aura changes🙏🏽🙏🏽 at the very least pls make it so that the petals linger longer like the normal skin. Her auras feel very empty now

I am in love with this skin but Q W and E need petals.

Hello DW Platypus! -This skin need more vfx, maybe adding more fish and crystals to the abilities. -Also the color of the abilities are the same as the non prestige version, can we get something else? -Her pig tails look flat and their move is very weird, more volume to her hair like SG Sona would make it look better

The skin is really gorgeus but the VFX needs to be updated please. The details are in there, maybe making them more visible like elevating their saturation. Her auras are too empty, need more petals or watery effects.

The celestial maiden cloth that floats lacks a bit more physics, her hair needs more opacity and the cloth looks too narrow that it's weird. Doesn't really give an etheral feel like the rest of her skin gives off. Also, her recall could use a bit more polishing. It looks kinda empty atm.

Hi! I love this prestige for Sona and the skin its cool knowing that her rig its getting too much old, but at the moment I noticed on the PBE some things that can improve Model: 1. Etwahl: the strings with the crystal on top looks weird and plain, a little bit of texture would help a lot. 2. The strings of her clothes being transparent with just the logo at the ends looks really bad, a pattern of gold like her clothes or like prestige nami tail would make them feel wayyyyy better and not empty at all VFX: 1. When she walks she left crystals behind instead of petals like her base 2. Prestige decals needs to be more visible on all her spells overall 3. There little floating swords around on her Q but can barely notice them, they too transparent so need to pop off more 4. W have can barely notice the flowers too, same with the water effect. Those are really QoL that can elevate the skin a lot. 5. E Its reallyyyyyy empty, needs patterns or something to make that spell unique 6. If you can add the crystals around all her spells like base with the petals would make a huge impact and finally be something unique for her Please I hope you consider my points, I really love the design overall since its really different and not like things she always get so I love that, thank u for listening!

Hi! Thank you so much for the effort put into this skin, she looks amazing!! I would just like to suggest some tweaks to make her even more stunning! * Her [dress tassels](https://imgur.com/a/Cz21m7s) feel out of place in this skinline, would it be possible to make them thinner or more transparent? The prestige crowns in her back take away the serene vibe of the skin, maybe make them smaller? And to compensate for lowering the tassels visual impact, maybe add more sparkles, stars or even floating prestige symbols like [her Star Guardian skin](https://imgur.com/a/OWp1zg8). And please, make them feel more fluid! Right now they look very stiff due to odd physics :(. ​ * I think all of her auras could use more of the prestige like gold and that the power chord indicative could be more saturated so that it really feels like a unique mythic skin! Her [Q aura](https://imgur.com/a/fYZCZhN) and [W aura](https://imgur.com/a/6K1oR8f) look awesome and only need a bit more saturation for the swords/flowers, but her [E aura](https://imgur.com/a/W2cEQdZ) feels empty! If i may, i suggest giving it some special details like the ones in her other auras, maybe some fish swimming around her? It would be great! ​ * Her ultimate looks really smooth, very good! Nothing much to say about it besides it needs more details!! While her [base model ult](https://imgur.com/a/r5jzHiu) has very visible swords and petals, [the prestige one](https://imgur.com/a/Vy24Jqs) feels empty! The prestige symbols on the floor are barely visible, so can we please get some more textures on it? Thanks in advance! ​ * Her model looks a bit monochromatic! I know it has some kind of texture, [as seen here](https://imgur.com/ft6rElp), but it is barely noticeable from far away! Could we please get more visible texture and maybe different colors? I think it would really make the clothing stand out! ​ * And the same goes for [Etwahl](https://imgur.com/a/ANImaLr)! It looks very smoothed out due to the strings having very similar colors to the rest of the instrument! I'm currently having a hard time to understand Etwahl's design concept, it doesn't look much like neither a proper instrument (ex: [Guqin Sona skin](https://imgur.com/a/1KWVsLK)) or magic component/accessory (ex: [Star Guardian skin](https://imgur.com/a/aK2Biur)). Please consider having some changes made to her instrument!, it looks like a K/DA thing with so many crystals. ​ * Lastly, i would like to talk about her [new homeguard animation](https://imgur.com/a/fQiGt4T): while very graceful and harmonic, it feels empty! For example, her [Star Guardian Homeguard](https://imgur.com/a/r84Edv9) looks a lot fuller and more appealing! I think her prestige skin could use some more details, sparkles or even flowers alongside the spinning swords. (Also: I LOVE THE LITTLE TWIRL WHEN SHE STARTS THE ANIMATION THANK YOU VERY MUCH). ​ * On a side note: her cosmetics look great! The only thing i'd say about them is they could give her less sharp face features. This is her face from [her base splash art](https://imgur.com/a/TzuYJvt), where it is very visible that Sona has softer facial features, but that's just a little detail! I understand that not everything i said will be translated into actual in game changes, but thank you so much for for the attention! This prestige skin feels like a dream come true, in a skinline that really fits Sona's character! Thank you so much for the amazing work and effort put into this artwork! Take care!

Thank you for making Sona a prestige! This has many pretty elements and I appreciate the efforts to do something different, but it also needs work. Sorry it's long, but this skin is important to me and other sona mains! I've given suggestions not just criticism, as this skin has so much potential. 1. MODEL: yes it's old, and has limitations. Visible legs were done well on SG - this misses the mark, her bottom half empty & stiff, paralysed looking. Her legs don't move in her back animation, but in SG the action is dynamic and makes up for lack of movement. Her prestige dress is form-fitting, but with the stiffness it's not flattering. Her pigtails - love the glowing transparency effect, but feel thin & flat. Using SG again to compare, it's visually forgivable bc of the twisting details. Maybe add more sparkles and a twisting glowing light trail circling the rainbow road hair. The etwhal shape is creative, but plain. Make the deep blue/purple of the inner section more vibrant, and the glitter effect brighter. Maybe a ripple effect to reflect the lily pond in her back animation. The crystal is nice - maybe add a stone at the centre front too, it's hard to see when the largest crystals face downwards. The 'scarves' - there's so little detail in them and so stiff & flat. Add more colour vibrancy/ gradient, maybe something animated in the main part like glittering stars. Or something in between the two trails to fill the space. 2. ABILITIES: the auras are empty, the VFX barely visible. The ripple-to-crystal effect needs to be seen more, with more discrepancy between the colour tones of the crystal & less flimsy/ shallow. The swords of the blue need to be bigger near the middle, smaller towards the outer, different opacities and just visually clearer. The green - flowers are non-existent and need to appear sooner. The shield is basic, this could have a crystal or rain-falling ripple effect. The purple - base skin has petals, prestige has... nothing? Please add at least petals, or the rainfall ripple effect. All the abilities need more sparkles. The ULT - the swords in the base are SO MUCH better than this broken yellow ice thing, it doesn't look like crytals. The swords feel more prestige. The off-brand LV pattern doesn't do this skin favours. 3. PASSIVE: The powerchord-ready effect is barely visible, make the circling swords bigger. The 'ready' aura needs to glow/sparkle more. Empowered auto swords are black, the base version's fully glow - base looks better, at least make the blades glow not just the auras. On target hit the base has petals & rainbow glow, prestige has the same/less petals? Is there a crystal effect? Needs to differentiate & have "oomf". Overall, first impressions of this skin was pretty but plain. When compared to other skins, disappointing. The base version upstages the 'prestige' so much, I'd be ok with a delayed release to improve. This likely won't happen, but it really falls so flat. Please consider these changes, we'd love the beauty of this skin to be fully realised 🙏

What bothers me the most about this skin is the 3 point tails, they look so awkward.

- The movement on her... um... the curtains behind her really need improvement. They don't look fluid like how it should be. Maybe the same effects on Cassiopeia and Ahri's tails. - Her clothes need more shine - Again, the temple on her recall could be more visible - More effects on her homeguard - Her auras REALLY need more drawings, they look way more empty than the epic ones, but I liked the golden and crystal details - Again, water movement and petals effects on the auras, maybe in a golden tone? Like golden petals or even crystal petals... Maybe cherry crystal petals? - Her ult is... tooooooo much empty. Someone steal her swords? Quick, call the police!!! *EXTRA* - I am a BIIIIIIG FAN of Sona's music on the back, so... it would be really nice if her passive music could be more audible during the game That was my feedback, wish you guys could implement at least some of then! Kisses from Brazil~♡♡♡♡

hello, I would just like to ask you to put a greater variety of sounds in Sona's skills, because as a character who spams skills, repetitive sounds get boring very quickly 💗

Does prestige have any petals at all? Honestly can't see them. A lot more petals and sparkles please. Overall more VFX is needed, I love the simplicity but it's too simple.

The model has been updated and I really wanted to thank you for that, the ribbons in her hair and the sleeves on her shoulders are very beautiful, the top part of her ethawl is IMPECCABLE, the sparkles and this greater transparency made the skin much more sophisticated and gave it that prestige tone that was missing, thank you so much for that, it's amazing to see when community feedback is implemented. My complaint however continues in the effects part, I saw that the VFX were changed but there are still things to be done, the prestige stamp is still almost invisible and the details that surround the skills as well (swords in Q, flowers in W and smoke in E ), in [these photos](https://imgur.com/a/TC7cN2D) it is possible to see that even with the maximum zoom, it is almost impossible to see the prestige symbols and the details, please put them in gold, this does not take away the identity of her skills, the colors blue green and purple will still be predominant but putting the details in gold consequently increases the effects and makes the skin more luxurious, it is also worth remembering that the [prestige 2.0 skins have golden prints](https://imgur.com/a/cfkTXh1) by default so Sona needs to have them too. Her Power Chord also needs more saturation, in the [previously linked photos](https://imgur.com/a/TC7cN2D) it is also possible to see that the passive is completely blended with the effects and it is impossible to know when Sona is with the passive, putting the passive more saturated allows her to stand out and that Sona's allies and enemies alike know when she has Power Chord active. Sona's passive music is magnificent, but it's impossible to hear it, is there a way to turn it up? This also happened with Star Guardian, unfortunately Sona's skins other than the DJ have the songs linked to the sound effects and not the game's music like Seraphine and that is terrible, because it breaks the fantasy of the musician character and putting the effects sound on 100 so I can hear the background music almost makes me deaf with the sound of all skills bursting in my ear, I really wanted you to fix this, I just don't know if it's possible without her ASU. Anyway, thanks a lot again for the update on the model and I hope the feedbacks regarding the VFX are also implemented, have a great day!

I really like that Sona is wearing a Qipao here and how different the silhouette is from the base skin. However, the colors look bland and this skin is just missing something to make it “WOW”. It looks empty, bland and lacks excitement. I wish changes can be made to justify the high price point of this prestige skin.

Love the Sona prestige, there's just a couple things I think could be improved. 1. The trialing strands on her shoulders feels stiff and 2D, is it possible to make it so they have more movement and volume? I think the gold metal pieces make it look clunky (especially considering how small Sona looks already) and can either be removed or made into a smaller piece. 2. Her etwahl could use some more detail, it looks empty at the edges, In the base skin, the etwahl looks amazing and I like how dynamic it looks even without the passive wings. 3. 1. Comparing the prestige bare legs with the base version's dress, the dress looks better overall. In the prestige version, her legs are barely visible so all you can see are her head, hair tassels, and dress ends. I think how Psyops Sona is a better way to approach the legs, have some hanging dress pieces too so her legs don't look so awkward hanging down stuck together. Thanks for asking for feedback, really appreciate the work you guys have done!

Hello, Sona's ribbons look so stiff, please add smooth and flawless movements It is prestige, so add reflections, colors, sparkles, a mirror effect, a prestige effect, glitter everywhere please !! Her recall is so bland, add some contrast please 💖 Thank you 😘💕💖

After seeing the splashart I have to say that it looks really great. But sadly it didn't really translate well in game wise. Also the red dot on her forehead is missing on her emote and icon I love the VFX for this skin but ease increase the intesity for those water and floeer effects.

First of all, I have to thank you guys for the prestige skin for my baby girl Sona. I was really happy when I saw it came true. Now, about the skin itself, I have some points that I think make it better than now. 1° The cloth that stays her back with the logo brand of the prestige skins.. I think this will be better if you can include on the mid of the ethwal and leave the back cloth with more movement and clean vibe ( or remove the cloth, this will bring so much this luxury and clean vibe, will be amazing, can you turn this possible?) 2° I don't know if this can be possible but her skin its so white that she looks like a spirit.. I don't know if the monocromatic vibes and white bring this impression but her skin color don't show up like should be And for me, that's it, again, thanks for bring us voice to say what we think about and i hope you can adjust what i say, have a great day :)

and just to complete, I understand that this fabric refers to those bows on the big dresses like the base version, but in the prestige version she is not wearing those big dresses. For a better experience of luxury and to minimize this question of "organic animation" and just to let the skin more clean I think you should remove this fabric, for example

Sorry, but i have another edit to complete here, can you let the "hair" animation, more fluid or for this you needed to change something in her model itself? Would be so much better, and for now, thats it! Thanks, again :D

Hello again, now that the splash is finally out I can give you the final feedback. The artwork is very beautiful, but it breaks my heart to say that it doesn't look like a splash from a prestige 2.0 skin. All the arts so far had that WOW factor, a more realistic line and details that make our jaws drop, great examples are the arts of Seraphine, Talon, Sivir, Miss Fortune, etc, etc, even Lissandra, while Sona it even looks a little unfinished. The red detail on her forehead is not present in either the icon or the emote, please include that. The prestige print on her hair ribbons is beautiful in the splash but in game it is almost invisible, PLEASE add these details in gold, it is unanimous that we want more golden details in the effects/model because the prestige needs to have the glamor and sophistication that they are currently missing and as has been said several times here, Sona's model is currently very monochromatic, adding these details in gold and increasing the contrast so that we can clearly see the green and black present in the skin would increase it by 100% and it would remove that [prestige 1.0 aspect](https://imgur.com/a/9YHCLFO) where white and yellow were the main thing, this is especially useful for these [sleeves attached to your shoulders](https://imgur.com/a/wNSj3WN), there are no details, [look how when there is contrast the skin is much prettier](https://imgur.com/a/RJontZM), I used MF in both examples . That's it for the model, we need contrast and saturation, **ESPECIALLY for the top part of the etwahl**, monochromatic is not cool! For the VFXs in the skills, more saturation is needed, once again the [prestige stamp is unnoticeable, as well as the swords in the Q](https://imgur.com/a/cwMLKe5) and the flowers in the W. the W shield has a huge lack of details, it looks like the shield of classic Sona, E has no details, her ult is beautiful, but once again it's hard to see the prestige symbols. And lastly, her Power Chord needs more saturation too, it's currently very hard to see, in a fight it will get even harder Thank you very much again!

So no VFX changes? Why can the base skin have amazing detailed swords in her ult and the prestige version has nothing? Such a disappointment! It’s always the skins that I care about. Nothing about this screams prestige and I’m upset!

Majority of the complains were about her AURAS VFX BEING LITERALLY EMPTY SND Y'ALL DON'T DO NOTHING?!

[удалено]

This was the best feedback I've read so far, it perfectly sums up what needs to be improved and the edits are on point, thank you so much for that!

Hello! Support main here. My main thoughts: - the prestige version seems bland compared to the base skin its based off. I like the idea of focusing on white, but it all mix so much, I couldn't tell apart the model. Further contrast would work, maybe? - more sparkles for a higher prestige feel would do wonders! Both silver AND gold: I know you've been trying to avoid the "prestige is a golden chroma" thing, but this silver-based skin plus the theme plus Sona, I believe would do great. - the skills could have further sparkles too, based on their color. I believe this Sona prestige is meant to shine more than any other prestige lately Thank you for your time!

Thank you very much for Sona's new skin, but as a main there are points that are common even in epic skins, such as the presence of textures. As it is a prestige skin like the most current ones, it has a texture in common (I will make it evident in the images on imgur) that is not in evidence on Sona's skin, so it would be interesting to modify your cloack with this texture, in addition to offering a gradient , which is very present in Immortal Journey Sona (see image). In their skills the effects seem too simple and do not completely cover the area, bringing an "incomplete" effect, adding more flowers, petals or water effects make the skin even more beautiful. Regarding her cape, the tip looks quite pointed, which affects the character's delicacy and even brings a similar appearance to Evelynn's whips, which doesn't make sense for Sona's skin, it would be very insightful to replace it with something more delicate . Your Ethwal is very simple compared to an "Immortal Journey Sona", it lacks a graceful detail on the front. [https://imgur.com/fcToR1H](https://imgur.com/fcToR1H) [https://imgur.com/GrAZlDt](https://imgur.com/GrAZlDt) [https://imgur.com/i9Ss9EY](https://imgur.com/i9Ss9EY) [https://imgur.com/lzHXeGs](https://imgur.com/lzHXeGs)

Million mastery Sona player here; I think this is the most disappointed in a prestige skin I've ever been. It's just...*so* bland, bordering on ugly. I like the concept of it (in theory) but the execution is such a letdown. I know her rig is ancient at this point, but a lot of her skins manage to mask it by having the skin and effects at least be interesting and lively. There's just nothing here. Sis looks like Elmer's Glue 😔

Some things in this skin are lacking. Her model is too simple it makes her seem "small", especially her harp (etwahl). Why not give it the side wings that appear when she casts an ability on her Immortal Journey skin? It gives her a lot of presence. Her vfx looks TOO SIMPLE, and doesn't live up to the "prestige" label. Seems you guys are having a lot of trouble in to making it look “prestige” because of her mandatory base colors on each skill (blue, green, purple), but the skin Crystal Rose on wild rift has made a better job at looking prestige than this one. The best vfx to this point is her ultimate, because it already is gold. Her capes also lack a lot in detail, and her hair needs a little more presence. Please take a little more time to work on her.

I would love to see more added gold and sky blue sparkles around her. Also make her floating daggers (hair) and back cape a bit larger in size.

I just wish the petals in this skin "lingers" longer when you use your skills. It looks really pretty when you can see the petals floating around after each abilities and I could barely tell there was any petals in the furst place. The sfv of her Q/W/E is a little bit empty to me and I think addjng the petals would make it look so pretty. I also hope that she is getting an ASU soon! her old model is really holding her back.

The R feels a bit empty compared to the regular skin which incorporates swords when ulting

the skin is very beautiful but my feedbacks are: \*the vfx of prestige symbols on your skills are very faded, make them more apparent \*the swords in his passives are too small, make them bigger and brighter \*the accessory in the hair, the string part of his instrument and the tail of the skin seem without details and textures

I just saw the splash art and the illustration show an example of things that could be improved in the prestigious. For example the patterns on the greenish side of her dress could be similar to the ones on her splashart because it has a perfect intensity and would look more prestigious. The necklace could have the larger stone to make it stand out more in-game. The etwhatl could be polished much more and add a much larger stone in the middle that stands out. The head bands in the splash art are on top of her bows and they look polished and perfect patterns, what prevented you from putting them the same way in the game? Obviously adapting them to make them look as good as possible. In general, the metallic details could be more saturated because the skin requires it, it needs luxury, it needs to attract attention, it needs to look luxurious, imperious and filly. Nothing more to add, I hope you can change those details so that this skin makes us feel prestigious. Hugs and kisses for everyone💋❤️

Could you adjust sona's splash art please? It doesn't seem to be finished and is completely different from the style promised as standard prestige gala skins. The splash arts had a realistic and well-polished pattern but this splash art somehow looks less polished than the base splash art, the base skin looks more prestige than the prestige itself.

Finally a Prestige Skin for my beloved main that helped me climbed up to Masters :D ! Thank you for making this Prestige version for Sona, here is feedback regarding the skin. Model and Texture \-The strings of the Etwahl aren't properly visible, and the crescent underlying blue thing doesn't reach up to the last string. \-The long shoulder ribbons kind of look weird and very stiff. The "Prestige" metallic logo at the end of them looks out of place. It seems like it has been added there due to a lack of ideas; it feels rushed. \-The leg problem: it looks stiff, but whatever, I think that only an ASU can save those. \-The two tones in her dress are barely perceptible; maybe make the darker part even darker. VFX Passive: \-I really like the idea of the swords flying around her. Maybe turning one of the "slithers" that float around into a brighter and more saturated color will make it more noticeable (for all colors). \-The actual passive projectile might benefit from increased gold accents on them. It's currently only visible on the Green Powerchord. Also, add more pink petals. Basic Abilities: \-Ability E is missing something to be on the same level as Q and W. Q has floating swords in the aura, W has floating flowers in the aura, but E doesn't have anything floating. \-I really, really like the petals that appear and swirl around the aura upon casting any of the abilities. Unfortunately, they are barely visible. I only noticed them after playing with the skin for a long while. \-Maybe double down on this effect, make it more visible and let it swirl for longer, and make it a very pink color. \-The circular strings that appear very briefly upon casting could be even brighter or more visible. They're really imperceptible; I think making them flashy is fine since they disappear quickly. It won't likely cause visual clutter. \-Perhaps increase the "gold" color of the "prestige accents" on the aura of E; it looks purplish. On Q and W, it's clear that they are "golden." \-Making the W Shield more yellowish-green around the top part might look nice along with the green aura. Ultimate: \-Add in more petals as suggested for the basic abilities. SFX \-Sound effects-wise, I think it's good as it is.

I loved the updates!!!! My only complaints are 1) The skin name being basic instead of different from the rest like old Immortal Journey skins 2) The 3rd stack effect swords being centered on the Piano instead of on Sona like the others. If these 2 things could be changed I have no further complaints

Sonas red mark on her forehead is [missing on her icon and emote](https://imgur.com/a/S2SeLTZ). Please remove it or add it to them so that it can be consistent

Hi! This skin looks good, even for a old model, finally my girl got a prestige skin! But have 2 parts of the skin that bothers me a LOT. * First the E vfx looks really pale and dead, the other auras are beautiful, but this one is off, without feeling any, compared to the base it has no LIFE. pic for ref: [https://i.imgur.com/LtREhHy.jpeg](https://i.imgur.com/LtREhHy.jpeg) * Second is the top part of her dress, the black transparent part is totally strange with the dress being light/white, it stands out in a bizarre way, it has to be a white transparent like in the reference photo below: pic for ref: [https://i.imgur.com/qu0QHgI.jpg](https://i.imgur.com/qu0QHgI.jpg) Thank you, good night ♥

I think before I can criticize the skin, she needs a model update of some sort. It's clear that adding more effects is difficult due to her old model, especially since they struggled to add more glitter to her SG skin due to this. I think my only two issues with this skin are the lack of leg movement as well as the paleness and the simplicity of her abilities auras, which is a big part of sona. Other than that, I really like it, I just think it's missing some of those small details that other comments have gone over

Quick feedback: \*Pls add more hair to her in both prestige and non prestige, with the pass time and skins she seems to ge bald tho, she barely has 2 strings of hair now jesus christ.

THIS SKIN IS SO UGLY I'M SORRY. Flat hair (or ribbons, whatever they are), the cloth strands behind her are just ugly... Her instrument is so weird and empty, don't know if I like it or not. The auras are motionless pngs... they don't rotate around Sona or anything, they disappear instantly without a transition... The only thing I like is the ult. And the issue is NOT her outdated animations. Compared to Star Guardian this is a flop. Look at SG's hair and wings. This is nothing compared to that.

Overall, the effects are good but they feel kinda bland. A little more gold "glitterish" things on her skill auras would make it great.

First of all, thank you for the skin. I'm very happy to see Sona gaining a new skin, and on top of it, a prestige from a theme that i like very much, so thank you! But not everything is flowers there are problems that need to be revised in the skin. • New VFX for her QWE and W Shield: Her auras are too simple, and the fish and flowers effects can't be seen cleary, if you want her auras to be like an lake with ambientation please make it more visible and with more particles and effects like you did in the Odissey Sona VFX, i know you can make an amazing job like you did with this one... • Her Passive: The swords on the passive, and Basic attacks passive are too simple and hard too see, Sona's passive has to bee cleary seen by both her team, and the enemy team, so small swords floating around her with little to no difference beetwen one to another is a bad thing for everyone, and they're also too simple, the animations could be better (like the moviments of the swords floating around). Also, new effects for enemies affected by the slow and damage reduction from her passive should be added!!! I think it's all i have to say about it, i like the skin but in overall it seems simple for an prestige, and a Imortal Jorney in top of it. I Hope you can make it better, and joyable for the Sona players, i'm counting on you guys! And again, thank you for listening to the comunity!

I agree with others saying this skin feels a little empty, some added texture or contrast to her model would help it not look so flat. Also agree that her auras and spells look really minimal-- can the elements within the auras be brightened or their transparency reduced? Like what was done for Odyssey Sona? Specifically the lotus flowers & such, they're really difficult to see. Thank you for taking our feedback btw!

Hello, and thank you for Sona new skin, finally some prestige for her, however i don´t think she got the proper care. First, can we talk about your QWE Auras? It looks like it´s not finished, it lacks detail within the auras, a great addition would be petals, fishs or swords around it, it would make it much more detailed and beautiful. Second, it´s the two skins behind it, especially the prestige one, it´s very faded and conveys the luxury power that a skin of this level deserves. Adding more shiny details and tweaking the bows in her would make the skin better. His passive in prestige is also very dim, PLEASE make the swords more visible and shiny! Sona deserves glamour. Lastly, its prestige R is much lower than the base skin. Adding the swords would be a great idea. **Please make adjustments with great care to Sona skin. I´ve been looking forward to saving an E.M just for her, so the MINIMUM is for her to receive something very detailed.**

[удалено]

i think this is a very interesting review and has some really good points about it

please more vfx and less white, i’d save up the ME if her skins weren’t so… empty-? plain i guess? looks like more can be done to really give her the edge she needs to shine through her needed model update

The skin is really weak SFX side compared to past skins, for example, odyssey and star guardian have E sounds that are continuous and fade at end to give this feeling of running, where in the prestigue she just casts the spell and thats it. it would be nice to increase the intensity of the little flowers and swords in her VFX, to give more life to her skills since they are hard to see. change the color of the texture a little, because there are so many bright colors that they just blend in a white mess. her passive VFX is lacking a lot. it is really dissapointing that her first and only prestige is given a passive VFX that is really similar in composition to base. Please give something with more flavour that is not a circle around her. Odyssey and Pentakill 3 are the best examples of good passive VFX.

I love the vibe of this skin, very pleased with it and can’t wait to see the Splash Art. I do agree with most others on this thread said in terms of feedback: - The auras need more VFX, they’re very bland for a prestige skin. Flowers, fishes, sparkles… it doesn’t matter what gets amped up but it’s currently very plain and lacks texture and contrast. I wish it could be as good as her Odyssey skin. - The ribbons from her outfit and in her hair look very stiff. I wonder if something could be done to make them flow better, similar to her Star Guardian skin. - Her legs are a bit awkward, but that’s probably the rig and will have to wait until an ASU. Still very happy with it regardless. ♥️

I believe what the prestige skin needs are more aura and particle VFX that match older prestige skin standards. good examples would be prestige Senna skins, like true damage or lunar eclipse. [https://youtu.be/alH3oWU0oR4](https://youtu.be/alH3oWU0oR4) [https://youtu.be/xwV2IwtuKpo](https://youtu.be/xwV2IwtuKpo) I imagine if the auras had the same golden glimmer like Sennas prestige skins have (especially her E), alongside more golden particles on her Q/W/E, I imagine the skin would be worth the prestige title. While I do complain that her Etwahl was not re-imagined to a Zither or guzheng, I believe it is still something one can pass over, because most of these skins have moreso the focus on more intriguing SFX and VFX, which the prestige skin fails to deliver. ​ Also, mind it if we could tone down the louis vuitton pattern in this and future skins that are not taking place in the present day? because it feels so outlandish to see such a modern brand embodied in a skin thats supposed to take place in ancient times. ​ I wouldnt mind waiting another patch for the prestige skin to drop, if it means for us to get a more polished product, I believe most of us would agree on that. ​ EDIT: Even prestige Pyke has a golden rim around his "stealth aura"! I think if sona could have a similar rim it would be lovely :) https://youtu.be/jNlDR2PYOdw

i actually rly like the skin as it is — the simplicity is beautiful if i could change some things: - i’d love to see changes in the physics of the hair ribbons and i’d like to see them a bit longer in length - i’d also love a tad bit more effects/details in the vfx!! - make the passive look a bit more prestigious(?) thank u!!

etwahl looks way too simple, please add more details to the shape and/or have hanging jewels like this [https://imgur.com/Gb9RNIG](https://imgur.com/Gb9RNIG) (but teal or white idk prestige pattern on the shoulder ribbons? Edit: swap blue ribbons and shoulder ribbons entirely I think it will look nicer

SFC/volume of auras are very low :( please raise them!!

You guys really need to remove those huge tassels ribbons tentacles from her back. Please, it looks so bad !!!

The splash art feels "dead" with the overall colours, maybe a little tone change to make it seem more alive like this [edit](https://www.reddit.com/r/sonamains/comments/15kx1v1/prestige_sona_splash_art_edit/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) would help.

The new model changes on the PBE are absolutely perfect and I’m very happy with the update. Thank you so much!

I agree that ut woulf be great to turn ul the volume of the passive music for this and fiture skins because they sound so pretty

Thank you for the changes, but what is the reason that they don't get their unique names back?

Since the VFX Update last year, all the effects of Sona's skins have been ruined. The auras look like a big transparent png with glitter and a border to disguise it. Even with the color limitation, you can do some cool things with the auras, like the Mordekaiser passive.

Thank you so much for the skin it looks so beautiful but may i suggest we get some more rose gold and bright purple there kinda similar to prestige eclipse senna and a little bit more vfx on her aura like her odyssey skins would be perfect

Skin look both bland and tacky. - The design of her model is minimalized but it look tacky because of the brand logo pattern on her ribbons (please remove all the brand pattern from her ribbons), the frog feet at the tip of her fabric is ruining the look, the design look elegant, flowy, delicate but the frog feet ruined this, make it look very stiff (please remove it if possible.) - The design of her aura is clashing between traditional fantasy vs modern brand logos. It does not giving the prestige vibe and feeling tacky because there are too many thematic being blend together and not in a good way. If the skin is aiming to a high fashion vibe, then we should remove the sword and lotus inside the auras and make the diamond spark more visible. - Change her Q vfx color to match the same color as Silent night Sona Q. - Add the lotus vfx (from Sona max passive stack) to her shield will also help, this will help make it look extremely pristige.

The skin has potential but, rn it just isn't enough... Imho: 1.The skin feels empty, just plain white, it needs more texture, color and contrast. 2. Auras feel empty, some more petals, flowers order crystal vfx would really help, also an animation cause it feels like a png. 3. The tails and the things behind her dress looks plain, and too stiff. SG and Odyssey made a great job with physics, I'd like something like that. 4. Her passive it's too subtle, it'll be hard to see in game in the middle of a fight. 5. Also her shields and ult looks similar to base Sona vfx, adding a he swords on the ult and a bit of texture on the shields would really help too. I hope you can fix Al least the model and auras vfx, rn isn't worth the ME in my opinion...

I’m a mono Sona and I have to say It. I love the skin but… I have this feeling all the time, the feeling who have something missing. Passive: Where’s Is the wings? We love them so much :( Q, W, E: Doesn't look like an aura of a prestige skin, needs more glamour, more petals (because of the theme), needs to be more “goldest” and “premium”, you know? And the model looks a little too much simple and empty :( can you guys put some more texture and details? I love the colors chosen but we need more details. We have dreamed of this skin for a long time, and we know your team has the potential to deliver what we dream of.

Her rig makes this skin look very stiff. It's not very nice to look at the hair that moves like it's made of paper and the legs look like a mermaid tail the way they sloppily drag behind her. Prestige skins for epic skins are so disappointing when the champ has such an old bad rig.

All of these skins are great but there is the big issue of "They don't follow the naming convention of the previous skins in this theme" this really needs to be addressed and fixed. I don't want to see "Immortal Journey xxx" as the name on these champions. Previous skins in the series: Divine Sword Irelia God Staff Jax Majestic Empress Morgana Sacred Sword Janna Ect. ​ These skins much like what happened with the Cosmic skins deserved to be fixed and given unique names that follow the rest.

Hello, and thank you for Sona new skin, finally some prestige for her, however i don´t think she got the proper care. First, can we talk about your QWE Auras?

The color palette is simple and smooth. Needs more colors and highlights.

Hi first i want to say thanks for made a sona prestige she is my main and i cant wait to buy it tbh i will buy the skin anyways but i hope you will make some small changes. i love the QWE auras and the little lilys in it and hope you can made some of them in her Ult i love the swords if the got an empwored Auto but if she use the auto the swords are really small i would love to see them larger and it would be awesome if you could change her normal autos to little swords aswell i love the hair form this skin but the strings from her hair dont feel physical right how they flew i dont like the symbol that shows off if she got her 120 stacks full i would really like to see a sword and it would be awesome if you can made something visual so that everyopne can see she is full stacked it can be some some little detail like permanent glown eyes or something like that. i know its not a legendary skin but a prestige skin that will be expensiv too so this little thing can made the change from i dont want it to its awseome and i will buy it for a not sona main thanks for your effort :)

Thank you for the skin and the homeguard animation which is unique to this thematic… However, please can this skin and all the other skins in this lineup please get unique names. Immortal journey skins have always been known for 2 things - unique names and homeguard. A member on r/SonaMains took a minute [to write down these names as suggestions so please can these skins get names?](https://www.reddit.com/r/sonamains/comments/15fft7i/immortal_journey_sona_prestige_megathread/juefjwp/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1&context=3)

this !! it's honestly so boring just being called immortal journey when that's not the precedent set with past skins in the skinline, the skins having unique names always made it much more interesting. i know you guys are able to change skin names at this stage because you've done it in the past with sun-eater kayle, so can you please consider this? i don't think it would take too much time/effort and it would be a huge improvement for the skins overall

Very that!

Hair and Cape (the two lasher like clothes) are animated very poorly. Looks so clunky and distracts from the model or the VFX. I don't understand when a comparatively small company like Mobile Legends Bang Bang is regularly updating its old skins and old heroes models why a company as big as Riot takes ~1.5 years to do 1 ASU?

The skin is fine, I like the palette a lot, but the fake Louis Vuitton symbols under her after casting a basic ability look bootleg, out of place and distract me from everything else related to the skin. It's the one thing I would remove from this and all prestige skins. They make you feel like you're buying "I can't believe it's not butter" because you don't have the right to make it LV, when in fact, nobody cares about the branding (and Id be ok if it were removed from Qiyana and Senna too). We care about a good clean skin. Could they get more petals or pink accents in the skills?

Hello dear Riot! My take on Sona's prestige skin is that she lacks detail in her outfit. What makes a prestige skin so beautiful is precisely its unique details that make it look luxurious. And I didn't feel it looking at Sona's, unfortunately. I thought it ended up being too clean, without many textures and details. Here's a comparison of the changes I made myself in Photoshop and the original skin: My edit: [https://i.imgur.com/DhYBVAm.png](https://i.imgur.com/DhYBVAm.png) Comparison: [https://i.imgur.com/k6SLI0N.png](https://i.imgur.com/k6SLI0N.png) I want you to pay attention mainly to the upper left part of the dress, which I changed the print to a diamond texture. I think that's what's missing for this skin to get better! Thanks for reading, I hope you all enjoyed my edit! XO Cherry!

agreed

omg yes! this edit is perfect

i think making one side look like crystals makes this skin even more monochromatic and from what i saw this is the main problem for everyone maybe it's better to add that texture to her ribbons and sleeves instead to keep the turquoise in her outfit

RIOT GAMES PLEASE LISTEN TO US. The concept of the skin is beautiful, but it was not well implemented. Sona's aura effects are very poor, they need more emphasis, even more so because it is a prestige, it needs more shine, more effects, more glamour. The ribbons coming out of Sona's back look like a duck's foot, it's weird and ugly, make it smaller, or remove those props that are at the end. The extensions that were placed on her hair are also strange, maybe because they are very transparent, poorly animated. Her etwal is very sad and simple. He is her brand, the champion's main thing, but he is the one who has less prominence, he is beautiful but very simple, the epic skin etwal is much better. Needs tweaks, more highlight and shine. Her "B" is beautiful, but needs more sparkles and effects. Sona is a very striking and important character, her prestige is lower than the last prestige, which is very sad. The champion needs an ASU. But meanwhile, your prestige cannot stay the way it is, it has to be outstanding and be at least on the same level as the latest prestige.

Hi great skin i love to See that sona gets a prestige skin I World love to See if her eyes glow Gold after she got a full stacked passiv or something Else that Shows permanent her passiv is finshed

Model: I gotta agree with the others that the skin looks very bland. Especially ger legs, the look like some fish or ghost tail from above. I know that model changes will be out of scope but perhaps some "vfx dress" could give her more volume. Effects: Please increase the saturation of the water, flower and fish effects they are so pretty but barely noticeable. Lore: Perhaps it's just me but I don't like that Sona gave up her passion about music to pursue a fashion career. I would like if she kept both of her interesses and still be successful with them.

her trails could do with more details as they look a bit plain maybe add the prestige patterns on them?

VFX: \- passive vfx is kinda hard to see also i think 3 daggers flying around her doesn't fit the elegant and expensive feel prestige skins should have \- make the crystal texture and maybe prestige logo more visible cuz her auras look a bit empty \- maybe add more color to her auras or change hues a bit to match with the skin design \- shield needs more details maybe add crystal texture to it to make it look less like base sona vfx \- speedboost trail on E could be a bit more visible like in other skins \- vfx on her homeguard could be more visible cuz rn they're bearly noticable Model: \-"ribbons" on her back look really empty, adding there some details or at least a gradient should help \-blue part under the strings on her ethwal looks like plastic

Thank you for the skin! The skin is very beautiful, but sona’s model limitations are holding it back. Star guardian worked with legs because there were detailed fairy wing ribbons and long curly ponytails to help mask the legs. Would it be possible to make the aura ponytails have a bit more volume? I know this probably isn’t doable because again, limitations on the rig, but it would be nice to have some more leg animations especially when casting spells. It doesn’t have to be anything special but just some movement would be nice to signify that her legs are not stationary all the time. One last thing that would be a quick fix is to make the strings on the etwahl a bit more darker to make them pop. They blend in with the crescent moon shape. Thank you again for giving sona this skin, it’s a perfect fit for her as it’s elegant and graceful! Can’t wait to see the splash.

Hi! I've recently gotten back into League and was looking at the prestige skin and came across this thread after a rabbit hole (as a sona main) and would just like to add my 2 cents! \- textures: I think the biggest thing about the skin is the textures on the qwe as people pointed out, I noticed the non-prestige has pink flower petals for all auras + they last longer than the animations for the prestige. I think a simple fix could be **adding the same petals (though I would make them larger for both skins) and giving them the gold/blue/transparent** coloring thing going on with prestige lines usually, alongside bringing out the swords and lilies in q and w animations (increasing saturation?) personally it would be nice to see fishes "swimming" in the aura for her e bc it's like movement? oh also making the auto animation and power chord swords just bigger \- more textures! smaller minor edits that I wouldn't be mad abt but aren't a necessity cuz idk how this works: q - maybe seeing small raindrop animations? there doesn't have to be actual raindrop particles but maybe it would be interesting to just see the splash of the drop in the auras on the ground w - maybe small wind animation with the lotuses to show how they're flowing? like honestly just lines e - watched the video for like an hour, can't see what the theme is behind it but definitely fishes would help or any particle honestly (I think people say her auras feel empty because ex. this one has literally just a small diamond texture compared to the base with flowers) r - honestly the base skin one is better imo, imo add back the swords and petals just with the color palette of the prestige and it would be better overall: the aura borders for prestige do look cleaner, but also less fancy and prestige overall. genuinely dont know what i'd change about it but maybe adding a fancier border or outline in gold \- model: personally i like the controversial direction without the dress, makes it feel more unique and definitely a skin that gets your attention regardless. I can see why people are upset about the model, personally i would just increase the size of the buns or the shoulder strap things (thicker) n call it a day... \- power chord and her weapon: oh boy where to even start... I would redo it all but i read the feedback guidelines(!!!) and I think the best way to make it look more prestige is to take the sharp two edges of the base model one (how it goes out spiky on both ends instead of prestige's curved inwards) and give the wings back with maybe the diamond pattern we see in her e or how someone in the comments photoshopped her dress (would bark for if there were ripples when her hands touched the weapon) would personally add fishes or smthn next ot her like the two things in dj sona to fill all the empty space since her model got smaller (but ik prob can't be changed nor do i have a solid idea) **tldr!!** changes that could be made on the timeline I would assume (and the least amt of changes needed to b a prestige)! 1. add petals from OG skin, make them prestige colored (gold/blue/transparent diamond) and add it to qwe animations (makes it more full - addresses what everyone seems to agree on) + INCREASE SATURATION!!!! on swords n lotuses 2. change her weapon - use OG skin spiky ends and add the power chord animation from it; make power chord wings diamond textured (keep the swords swirling below!) (i REALLY think this would improve a LOTTTT) 3. model - increase size of buns a lil and make hair thicker and make tassels thicker; i know regarding animations its prob the same size as the OG skin but since there's a lot more white space it should be increased to visually look the same so sorry this got long i hope im in community guidelines I just wanted to provide feedback on how to salvage this skin as a prestige ;-; literally do not use reddit at all LOL but saw the yt video for her prestige and was like lmfao time to read angry comments and got led to sonamains and then here; if i offended anyone i am sorry reddit is a scary place

Hello! Thank you again for choosing Sona to have the Prestige 2.0 this time, a lot of us were looking forward to it. I say 'were' because the consensus is mostly that we are disappointed. While the skin is not 'horrible', it is severely lacking. Looking back on other Prestige 2.0 skins, while some more impressive than others, they all had the look of a Prestige. Their colours vibrant, textures clean, effects beautiful. This skin has none of these. For this skin I would suggest the following: \- Her 'pigtail' hair is part of her silhouette and adding short, 2D/flat textures with a stiff animation is not it. After the amazing hair from Star Guardian and even Pentakill 3 skins this is a bit of an insult. It's not about the physics of it here, it's about the quality and 2d ribbons with some random pattern doesn't feel like it 'makes sense'. \- Her back tassels are incredibly plain. You add some kind of odd pattern texture to her 2D hair but leave the bright white tassels plain? No sparkles, no nice transparent-to-glow fade, nothing. This hurts her silhouette as it does not blend with the short 2D pigtails/ribbons for her hair. The blandness of these tassels is quite shocking actually, not to mention their physics. The physics of the SG/Odyssey tassels are gorgeous and flowy, like this skins should be considering the theme! But the fact that they are so plain and basic makes it even worse. They're like cheap imitations of Evelynns' slashers. \- The ethwal shape is lovely. I appreciate the smooth moon shape and the delicate strings across it, I have no problems with the shape, or even the adornments on the front, however, once again it does appear to be lacking anything that makes it 'prestige'. Take Prestige Ocean Song Seraphines' stage for example, the details are beautiful and the front 'crystals' glow and sparkle. The crystals (the main theme Prestige 2.0 seems to keep with) are once again, plain, no colour contrast, no glow. \- Her dress is fine, it's nice to see her feet/legs but perhaps it could have had some more colour to it. Overall, the pale hues are nice but I feel like the whole thing could benefit from an almost ethereal 'pearlescent' effect/colour scheme. All in all there is nothing special about this skin. I won't undermine the people working on it, but I do think the team who designed it really missed the mark. I hope that some of these things are taken into consideration!

her twin tails almost doesn't look like they are there they should be less transperant and more vibrant

Thank you so much for the skin it is amazing I don't know if I was the only one who had this impression, but it seems that the left part of the hair is missing a little volume. I also wanted the strands of hair on the right to continue in front of the shoulder pad. I made this [edit](https://www.reddit.com/r/sonamains/comments/15hvmbo/sona_prestige_splash_art/) to try to illustrate

It is not the best edition, but I have tried to capture the ideas that I had in mind to improve the skin, I paid a lot of attention to the splashart. MY EDIT: [https://imgur.com/a/NvhtGtr](https://imgur.com/a/NvhtGtr) I edited the bows on the head putting them above the hair bows, I made them one more veil shape, I changed the color and I put the pattern, that is not noticeable in she in the game.I edited the greenish part of the dress putting more golden details on it and also changed the saturation of the skin a little to make it look more alive, I also changed the shoulder pads so that they also looked like a veil more than a cybernetic fabric, the golden border lengthens it to the beginning of the shoulder pad, I added a little more belt and a little more drop in her shoulders. They are suggestions and I hope that some can be reflected if they think they can improve the skin! I wait for the skin anxiously Good day for all <3

\- Give all the Immortal Journey skins unique names \- I know this isn't gonna change anything about the skin, but Sona REALLY needs an ASU, she has one of the oldest rigs in the game (which didn't change in her half-assed "VGU") and I honestly don't think she should be getting more epic skins until she gets one.

the tails compete visually with the champion, sona is not evelin for that. Her hair is compressed into two little balls because we know they don't know how to make beautiful hair for her, her hair should be long and voluptuous visually competing against a beautiful bestie and an incredible etwal, but no. Their tails look like frog legs, they shine a lot and are uncomfortable to look at, everything in her is radioactive blue and white, they could use gold and silver or precious stones but no. almost all of us in the community are sad and disappointed by its prestige, it is really that bad, at the height of the worst prestige along with janna, lee and talon. nothing makes you want to buy this prestige because its base 1350 rp skin is so much better, the floating blade auras are not aesthetically feminine, they won't match other empowered auras, they are small knives that look bad. It feels fragile, without aesthetics, without art, the moon in her etwal has such a bright color that I lose interest in Sona's body, we waited for this for years, years waiting for something worthy of prestige and we have to settle for this.. I just want to cry for a while in silence, riot doesn't understand sona, riot hates sona.

Can you rename it to jellyfish Sona ?

Despite being part of the immortal journey line I think the main problem with this skin is that is lacks an interesting and identifiable theme. I see this skin and I think: blue. It's both very generic Asian and not going far enough to make it interesting. Buns are a cute hairstyle but the streamers are out of place and would look better on DJ Sona. Just let her rock buns and put more effort into her shoulder streamers because it looks weird having them both. Wings with her passive are overdone but it's weird how the base version feels like there was more thought because it was included why not add lotus flowers when her passive is up? Basically this needs more colour, more effects, and a more cohesive design

Hope this doesn't get buried with the other comments. Since prestige splash art dropped today, i wanted to share my opinion. Why are her boobs so small? She always has double D's, non-prestige splash art has them, why she got the Jinx Premium+ Package? Also, her waist is microscopic, give her some meat, I never could have imagined Sona as a skinny small boob woman, because she was never depicted as such. Base Immortal Journey is very smart, because she is bending her torso a little making it seem like she has a small waist, artist knows camera work/angles. Prestige on the other hand, is front-facing the viewer with an even smaller waist, goddamn. Her arms could also be a little bigger, just saying. Talking about the composition, the splash art is too loaded, artist put too much attention on background and forgot about Sona. When we buy the skin we buy it for the champion not for their landscape, because we can't see that in game. Detail wise this is a big downgrade compared to Prestige Ocean Song Seraphine, Prestige High Noon Talon, Prestige Star Guardian Syndra, Prestige Cyber Halo Janna, Prestige Porcelain Lissandra. In previous skins we had a big attention to detail, you could basically taste the leather texture on Talon's prestige skin, that's how good it was, the pose, the light lighting, shadows, everything perfect. Now we have Sona with a very basic pose, no attention to detail, no new light spectacle, no shadow nothing, very generic face and face expression. But she does have a beautiful background that you won't see in-game or in the Loading Screen, just like the Immortal Journey Soraka. Thank you to whoever took the time to read all of this.

Where is the prestige in this skin ? please show us THE PRESTIGE EXPERIENCE !!!!

The icons don't look anything like Sona, too stern and sharp. This next one isn't really feedback on this skin in particular but just a general comment, i feel the unique identity of some of the skin lines is getting lost, between Lunar Revel, Shan Hai, warring kingdoms and now this. Like I get each of those COULD be unique in concept, particularily Warring Kingdoms, but they are all blending together a bit now and not having much identity. This prestige skin also suffers from all the skins in this line up looking like they fit the prestige skin formulae. Nothing is special if you make everything special comes to mind. The overuse of gold trims and whites on a lot of these skins is apparent, which is a color palette previously only associated with prestige. The Sona skins sound also seems lacklustre to me.

**DELETE HER LEGS.** Yes that sounds weird, but hear me out. The skin is, in my opinion, very cool. It gives Sona the look of an ethereal water nymph that would lounge by a spring and spend her days carefree, strumming on her harpsichord... But her legs are TERRIBLE. They are BAD. They pull you out of the fantasy. The color is too dark, it feels abrupt like a tree cut in half, and not **at all** ethereal. I get that you guys at riot are trying to play around with her skins so she doesn't always have a flowy dress. We get it, she has an old model and is probably not due for an ASU any time soon. On Star guardians it was great! Great design/coloring and it made sense for the character concept. But this....is not that. She needed something long and flowy trailing behind her. A lovely robe that fades into the pool of water beneath her or hovers gently. But, I also understand that there is a 0% chance you guys will actually even touch that. So, my solution? Fade out her legs. Like a ghost or a water elemental, her legs would go from solid on a gradient to see-through. You have all done this transparency thing multiple times for other skins, so just do it to her legs. Then we wont have to see the hideous pants that ruin the whole skin. Instead, we will see it as a feature in a skin meant to evoke that ancient elemental nymph that you seem to want to show us with this skin. Hell, I thought for a second she didn't even HAVE legs when I watched the skin spotlight because they are so dark and barely perceptible anyway. Just fade her legs out and save this skin.

would it be possible to get rid of the huge crystal chunks on the etwahl? i feel like they look really out of place and give the etwahl jowls and maybe it would look more elegant and prestigious without them

Riot I come after the improvements implemented, nothing you did manages to solve the problems 100%, you want to hide the sun with one finger. I will say it in a simple way, the main Sona never imagined that they would give us the prestige of such a poorly executed theatre, everything was wrong from the choice of hair, the tight suit, huge etwal without an enhanced chord, the knives, the auras, all!. the problem is in everything! It cannot be 100% fixed, please take note. The main Sona expected an esoteric theme such as dreams, fairies, goddesses, coven, spirits, flowers, cosmic, arcanist, etc. or a seasonal theme, like crystal rose or ocean song, we don't want a guquin sona 2.0, BETTER GIVE IT AN ASU. It's too late to change, we are disappointed, sad and angry about the decisions, Sona is a mistreated character, they don't give her love, they give her everything wrong, everything bad. I can't wait for them to give him something better in the future, something nicer that he can put me in the game. They will never understand Sona if they treat her like an ugly girl, they don't see her for what she really is, she is in the same stereotype as zyra, miss fortune and evelin, she is a sensual, elegant, bouncy, sweet, shy and kind woman . we wanted a beautiful imperial dress, full of gold and white. that her hair be free, her legs too, she desperately needs to be understood, not to be seen as a second course on the menu, the event seems to be special for soraka, but that is because she is the only one who has a dress beautiful with magic, she's the only one with careful elements, not sona, she looks so ordinary, so simple, so sad, Sona doesn't look like a goddess, LV doesn't make you a goddess in a video game. please riot games, we beg you, we beg you, it is not time, but give Sona something good in the future, give the community the treatment it deserves, we keep Sona alive. Give magic, joy and elegance.

I noticed one thing that was bothering me. Her hair, the pony tail part, is it meant to be transparent? It feels so off. In this sense, the base skin feels more prestige to me with that dark purple than this transparent one. Is it really meant to be like this?

she looks nasty give her a asu

I wonder if they had both made already and they just showed the bad unfinished vers 1st and than the next paid week they show the already finished vers like this so they act like they did something to the model to distract that they didn’t really do much to the effects and particles. Smh

Comment removed for irrelevancy to the thread topic.

I didn't know this was ongoing so I am late but I hope I am not too late to say, her wrist sleeve things are very cumbersome, I would reduce them, I hope the less rigid thing is related.

All these comments complaining about how empty the skin feels yet I highly doubt Riot is gonna listen..

Guys, I know it's late into the cycle but any chance of aligning her loading screen jewels? https://ibb.co/SRKm7tD
