I have them all made... just worried about which to use in case some Riot cancel hammer comes down due to IP rights xD

hehe I like league when it's not making me rage and cuss like a sailor

I'm so excited for KAT! nice and thick PBT, support reverse-dyesub, and not as tall as SA. I think it will be a very popular non-GMK profile as more designers make sets

It's a bad trend seeing them lumped together. It only started because GMK has such high MOQ, but that's not the case for KAT.

Really digging this.
Been looking for something to put on my purple Candybar coming at the end of the year and this seems like a great candidate if the purples co-habitate well.
Looking forward to renders for sure, that would be my only request for one ;)

Very interested in this and can't wait to see some good renders.

I didn't realize it was such a strong opinion whether certain compatibilities should be combined. I personally use a variety of boards which is why I lumped 60%+ and sub60 together, but I have included a new field in my form to leave feedback for splitting both of those kits.

I really wanted to use Kindred Lamb/Wolf masks but alas, they were not ok with me using their IP. Came up with my own chubby chibi versions of their lamb/wolf xD

I'm so jealous! I always loved playing Kindred but I was absolute ass.

Hi there are some updates!

Here are some pretty renders for you.

Doing a lot of work behind the scenes to ensure that colormatching will be completed before the GB runs and that there will be some keycap samples before as well!

So I'm still trying to work with Keyreative on this... but their molds for 40s support is pretty lacking. Some of the current keys I have proposed actually don't exist yet so I am trying to see what I can do about compatibility. Regarding the Dimple, I'm actually not quite sure what the compatibility requirements for this specific 40s layout is but if it's relatively simple to support, I don't mind looking into adding a key or two in order to support it. :) I'll take a look into it.

You actually reached out to Riot and they denied using the IP? That's messed up.

I really like the set, though. It kinda reminds me of Ori and the Blind Forest too.

Yeah since the selling of keycaps is considered a violation of their IP, even though I was willing to do a non-profit at cost kit for some really cool Lamb and Wolf masks. So unfortunate 😭

Even for a non-profit run? Didn't they specify in the past that their IP is free to use for all hobbyists and content creators that just want to make **** for the audience? How would this not apply? Riot is really ****ing up on this one.

BTW, I would kill for region-specific keysets. Like a Freljord, Ionian or Piltover set. *hint hint*
