I posted the above rework and ult on September 14 2015, and Oracle's ult got changed to Sanctuary on March 18 2016, so I couldn't have been influenced by yours if I'd wanted to. :P

To be honest, though, if you had posted Sanctuary first, I'd have definitely tried to incorporate it into a concept, and Oracle herself is pushing me to ideate on a vision-manipulating support kit. In any case, there are enough creators and ideas thinking up League-related concepts that there are bound to be similar ideas in the end, and I think we both arrived at similar ults through different trains of thought.

As for Riot missing effects, I don't think there are effects so obvious that "only" Rito could miss them; rather, I think Riot's design team is so small compared to the amount of fan content creators in the world that it's impossible to think of as many things at once. I also think a lot of effects we think Riot "missed" are effects they thought of at some point, and didn't include yet, maybe because they're waiting for the right time and kit to introduce them, maybe because there are tech issues we aren't aware of, or maybe simply because the effects didn't end up working in practice.
