A Whole New Look 

Ranked Emblems are some of the most easily recognisable in the game, however Riot is planning to update these. 

 

 

 

...our primary goal is to make sure that we’re not diminishing the sense of value and achievement, no matter what the tier. Additionally, we’re being very careful to explore options that retain the recognizability of the tiering at a glance and ensuring that the older, intricate, metallic style translates seamlessly into something equally as impressive.

The developer has looked into possible changes to the bulky textures of the emblems, creating a key piece of the identity of the players. Riot Games wants to be particularly cautious with these changes, though they are determined that modifications need to be made, they have not yet determined what they will be and are waiting to receive feedback from the League of Legends community before making a decision.
