Let's Brainstorm Some NEW Champ Skin Ideas!

FYI, I have no idea how Riot chooses which player/fan suggested idea on a new skin or if it's ever been done before, but who's to say it can't happen? We all know Riot has all sorts of skins, ranging from holiday-themed (Heartseeker Ashe / Zombie Brand), pop-culture references (Grungy Nunu / Frozen Shen), to the outright nightmare fuel (LolliPoppy, anyone?!).

Anywho, here's a few of my ideas to get the creative juices flowing! Feedback is welcomed, either if it does/doesn't fit a champ's essence/lore, if it is or isn't practical to put into the game, or if it'd just look as ugly as OP's mother. ...Wait a minute...

  1. Rock Candy Malphite (Bright colors, likely a bright blue and pink coloring with his inner shell being brighter; tosses peppermints or rock candy disks for his Q.)

  2. Origami Mordekaiser (Edgy, almost 2 dimensional shape. The splash from Morde's Q would be paper airplanes that fly at nearby enemies and his W would be a bunch of misshapen and crumpled failed creations. Looks like he's made out of grey/dark construction paper.)

  3. Voodoo Priestess Karma (Based in part on Diablo III's Witch Doctor, but with Riot's spin on things. Creepy, swampy vibe, definitely one meant for the Harrowing holiday. Cobwebs, poisons, and hexes, oh my!)

  4. Roadie Gragas (The unfortunate sidekick to the Pentakill band that Riot already has in place. His Q / R tosses out faulty/fritzing speakers that blow with a fiery and electrical explosion. Chugs an energy drink for his W, and wears a Pentakill t-shirt that ((mostly)) covers his beergut of manliness.)

Thanks for taking the time to check out my thread and I hope you have some great ideas of your own that you'd like to share, and hopefully, get on Riot's radar! :D

I don't think Mordekaiser gets new skin before his VU

It's been done a couple times. Pool Party Ziggs and Astronautilus are the most notable ones, originally designed by Mattcom.

I'd be okay with more established skin themes (pool party, dragonslayer, battlecast, etc), but it would be nice to have some skins that are independent and just plain silly. Anyone elses thoughts?

also think if not somethign like that thresh needs to become a egindary or ultimate skin for poll part as a life guard. that and i had a thought of like a count down for a ultimate skin for him where with every hook his color or look would change as a coll little side thing (or every miss if riot really wanted to troll people)
