Meh. The spell effects are just recolors with minor particle blooms, as I feared (and why I thought Lux was a bad fit for the theme, since light doesn't have much room for variation beyond color). Someone like Annie or Taliyah with physical spell components would have been more room for rich visual effects, but I fear the point of this skin was more the "anime dress up" trope - which is lost on me. I await to hear if her voice over redeems this skin a bit (for me), but I'm unlikely to buy it as it stands.

My opinion might be tainted by the fact that many of the elements used in this skin, I feel, would have been better utilized on solo skins - e.g. Atlantean Lux, Scorched Earth Lux and Dragon Trainer Lux. Dragon Trainer Lux, in particular, could have had an awesome ultimate animation where her dragon dances around her and then screams a torrent of flame in a line. But, alas, Lux now has a fire-themed skin and it's this - so she won't get another one.

From a more objective perspective, I find that many of the outfits lack Lux's silhouette and are easily confused with champions like Janna and LeBlanc - which is poor for gameplay clarity. (I'm also curious as to how Darkness Lux's spell effects will compare to Classic Morgana).
