Statcast relics were pitched as a simpler concept than BCs…

But my first impression is that Statcasts are more complex and will be even more work to manage.

To wit, I have opened 20 valiant SC crystals. I have two SCs that are both duped five stars. Both are called “insulated something or other” (same exact name) and both feature pictures of Kushala. Yet, they aren’t actually the same? It’s not great from a UX perspective. Feels like adoption of this great new feature is going to be a chore.

Finally, maybe it’s just the distribution of SCs that I pulled, but at first glance these stat enhancements don’t seem very thrilling. Mostly defensive stat increases.

There are some really good offensive ones, like Prowler but the names and presentation are really bad I agree

If you pulled two Kushala relics that weren't dupes, they didn't have the exact same name. Similar yes, exact no.

All Statcasts are given names based on their abilities in the "[Primary Stat] [Class] Relic of [Secondary Stat]" format. For Kushala, this is Insulated Mystic relic of [Secondary Stat]. Each individual Statue has its own Primary Stat that won't change.

There are 5 Secondary Stats per Statue. Kushala's are Cruelty (Ferocity), Crit (Finesse), Armor (Protection), Crit Resist (Blunting), and Physical Resist (Blunting). Yes, it does give them hilariously long names, but the name is informative. You can also see visually the Primary Stat (top icon on the right) and Secondary (bottom icon on the right) to know which is which without needing to see the name or click into the relic.

The relics, new and original, all have same look and placement when added the champions .

Makes it difficult to see and remember which one is on. A different border for battlecast would be appreciated as well as a better way to sort and catalog the new ones

What the hell is this?

I might have to get my 6 year old to help, he's great with these types of puzzles.

Its not that difficult. They all have different secondary stats.

Appreciate the folks bringing clarity to the situation, but this is still laughable to me.

So they have…

same champ photo

mostly the same name

obscure visual cues to indicate secondary stats

I’ll collect and use them, but this is just not very well done. Hope they actually make an impact on our champs’ performance.

The issue is that it's not displaying the difference here

Bro, I'm not even sure I would trust you to solve the baboon puzzle.

I would enjoy these items so much more if they were actual items. I want hulk to have his worldbreaker hammer. When they are just copies of champions, it seems very dull. Then getting multiple copies with slight varations, just marketplace confusion.

Everyone complains about how they constantly have to swap relics for certain events. They give us 180. Everyone complains about why they look the same. Just put the relic on a champion you wish to have a relic on. Set it and forget it. If you can't figure out the nuances then you don't need to worry about it.

good god, I was joking in another thread, but this actually IS like the item spawn setup from Borderlands. o_0

Herbal_Taxman

tell us you missed the entire point without…

Herbal_Taxman

another example and I swear I’m not trying to beat a dead horse. In this instance, how are you supposed to know which Kushala SC this actually is?

I had the exact same issue and it was frustrating knowing which secondary stat I wanted to pull, poor implementation indeed
