Worlds 2014 Championship Skins
I really hope and am rooting for Starhorn Royal Club to win worlds because their championship skin set would absolutely amazing.
Imagine: Royal Ryze, Royal Lucian Royal Fizz Royal Lulu Royal Lee Royal Rengar Royal Twitch Royal Thresh. etc list of who they can make
There is so much Riot can do to make those skins so crazy cool. Crowns/ Capes. Just Epicness!
And look at their opponent. Samsung White....well i guess we can make white textured champions... how lame is that really. When TPA won season 2 the championship Nunu skin was crazy amazing how they incorporated the teams logo into transforming Nunu.
Teams like "Samsung white/blue, SK T1.... have no fun, imagery anything creative in their team icon. Those teams are just walking advertisements for their sponsor mobile phone companies. It shows as not so much caring for the game but just using another media to throw their product at you.
Teams like Cloud 9, TSM, Alliance, Super hot crew, TPA, Najin Blacksword/ white shield and the plethora of teams out there show creativity in representing their team. They have creative colors, icons that represent their team even mascots for some! (think of cloud 9 skins....(starts to drool). And most importantly I don't feel like a product is being shoved down my throat every time i look at their team name/ appearance. I'm all for sponsoring teams; to give them the opportunity to do their best but at least get creative, but really make something unique that stands out. I can't think of anything more bland then "Insert Mobile phone company and color choice here" team name. It's not fun, and at least for me turns this game which is such a testament to creativity, with countless possibilities of champion pool and play styles into just a bland bill board for a 3rd party product.
In short: Step up your creativity with team names, brands/icons.
Go team Royal Club, WIN WORLDS!
Side note: Lots of respect to all players who are in LCS/ and those who made it to Worlds. You are the best players in the world regardless of whichever team you represent. Some of the plays I see are absolutly amazing!
