HOLY SHIT ITS SO FINE, especially with the chinese culture and element, so much better than the generic red and white
Also orgs said that teams who had red and black classics will have a completely different colorwave this year
Gemiknight [#2]that player card goes super hard
IKR? especially when the CN teams didnt get one last year
Laundry [#4]PLAYER CARD GOES HARD ASF
tbh idk about the classic tho
The classic is way to similar to the 24 ones but im find with that especially with that unique colorwave
Realm3098 [#11]Classic again...
with way better design tho, that is massive improvement considering they were the last region to have their bundles out
LocoMonteiro [#14]"we will give you banners and classic skins AGAIN and you will buy it peasant"
"yes Mr Riot, of course"
"we will give you banners and classic skins AGAIN and you will buy it peasant"
"nah fuck you riot i can choose to save my money if i please"
saebr [#20]I can't see it that clearly but I thought they would at least change the classic design layout between the years, kind of shameless
Yea ur right... its still the same exact layout, shame on u rito
good colorwave tho happy for that
H3ENnZ [#15]"we will give you banners and classic skins AGAIN and you will buy it peasant"
"nah fuck you riot i can choose to save my money if i please"
that would be the ideal scenario but people are already sucking off rito on social media
jawn [#23]it's the same exact classic, wtf rito
I hate to defend riot because like you said, its new bundle but same design
Buttttt all the skins this time will have less repetitive colorwaves, for example more than a quarter of the classics last year is red n black but this year they would most likely receive new colorwaves
But yes shame on riot for reusing designs to farm money from VCT watchers

they're cheap as fuck for not creating a new model
GambleNats [#25]we've known its gonna be classics for like a year no? why are people complaining about it now
Cause ppl prayed that its just a rumor, and its more shocking when the final product is revealed
H3ENnZ [#21]Yea ur right... its still the same exact layout, shame on u rito
good colorwave tho happy for that
It is a good colorwave for sure, I'm definitely curious what teams will try and do this time around for their player cards though since a lot of them just threw the logo on the card and called it a day, surely they don't repeat? EG will probably throw their mascot on it I'm guessing
One thing I find funny is that judging by the way the thread was so excited I was expected the classic to be a little cooler just to be greeted by the same classic with new colors. A new layout would've been better but I know riot could've scraped the funds to make the model a little different too :( the default classic is one of the ugliest default skins i won't lie, it looks so 2d

leo faria said on platchat that its always going to be a classic bc you always have a classic in your loadout so more visability for the orgs
KClaw [#30]Dude let me tell u this, check on this year's Chinese vct team capsules and the other region ones, mostly all Chinese capsules clear other team capsules easily, riot put a lot more efforts in the chines ones it seems like
No they dont lol, last year te chinese classics are bland af and ppl were flaming riot for not putting a banner and a spray in them (Allegedly the orgs didnt have time to do so but thats fine), also im not 100 percent sure but the orgs pick the colorwave themselves so

I was really excited when i saw the leak on my fyp at first, but then i realized that its just the same model but different patterns, the interior design still same lol
Galactc [#39]No offence but why not just only buy 1 if people want to support further then that's up to them
Ive met ppl who bought all 44 capsules last year, its a "good investment" cause all of them becomes exclusive after the season
Also i have no idea whether the classic have new VFX or not, if they do thats shitty but i will still buy a capsule or two since they have new designs

EDG management said its special effects on the player card, but not excluding that they will have special VFXs on the skin itself

you know what they should've done, is adjusted the 24 skin instead. Then people would try and buy the skin of the team that wins champ that year and it'd be way more fun + i feel like they'd make more money since people would be more inclined to buy multiple skins to have a higher chance at the one with special fx.
and it just doesnt make much sense to add it to the 25 skin when they won champs in 24...

making the skins exclusive each year is only going to increase the sells since a lot of valorant players "buys skins for the exclusiveness"
And a lot of players buys the skin based on its appearance, that is what made KRU and TLN have a high sell
Mortadelo [#43]Sells are gonna drastically drop this year no matter how cool the designs are. The people who wanted to represent their team can already do so with last years bundle a new one doesn’t add much and specially if it’s the same weapon
This, Riot kinda inted the teams

You also always have a knife in your loadout 🤓
w1atrak [#49]Well I also spawn with the knife
"gun"
They are releasing a bundle similar to LOCK//IN this year around masters toronto
foythvlr [#50]im excited for NRG since they rebranded and now are using orange as the main color and its pretty unique
Rs it will be straight gas
Im interested to see Furias as well I liked the panther gun buddy it was sick

How is buying skins in valorant an investment? You will literally make 0 money back.

Yup. I don't remember the exact words but he said it a classic was the closest thing to a badge or flair or something and that was the kinda thing they wanted to team bundle classics to be, a way to rep your team in-game
foythvlr [#50]im excited for NRG since they rebranded and now are using orange as the main color and its pretty unique
Can't wait, dude. We had a severe lack of orange last year, the only real option was FNC if you wanted a nice solid orange (same with LOUD for green)
