So, as I've been on this game I've talked with different people about different skins. I'm sure there are quite a few people who have their own suggestions as to what would be a great skin, and I'd like to share a few of my idea's (this being the first). I'm sorry that I don't have a picture to supply you, but I thought you guys might like the suggestion anyways.

POOL PARTY THRESH:Thresh As the pool party theme as become quite popular. A friend of mine was mentioning how cool one of her favorite champs would look like as a pool party. This got me thinking about my favorite champ(thresh). He'd definitely be dressed as a life gaurd. The head would probably have to be a sun, considering his model. The real vision, though, comes with the skills.

His passive, (the souls) would actually be water balloons(they'd pop when he gets close).

His Q (death sentence) would throw an old school circular life saver and hook rescue the opposing champions.

His W would throw a buoy with a light that spins around the top, like a lighthouse.

The E (flay) could be a pool noodle or that orange life preserver pushing them in a different direction.

And of course we have R (the box) or rather those little linked buoys that separate the area's of the pool. Haven't really thought up a recall animation but I'm always open to suggestion.

Your ideas are nice, but it's a bit weird, considering that Thresh is a disembodied spirit/monster from the void Shadow Isles. How do you make that beach material? o.O

That was the tricky part to thinking this up. He has all the necesseray body parts like arms and legs. In the end, I figured they'd probably put a full body wet suit and give him some kind of Sun for the head.

If you think about it too. I mean, renekton is a friggin crocodile and ziggs is a yordle. I can't think lore would mean much in a skin. And he's from the Shadow Isles.

Along the same lines, I'd like to see themed skins cross more than just a few champions. There's no rule to follow when making the skins and lore isn't important. When I play with my friends, it would be awesome to be able to have an entire team with the same skins without having to stick to the specific champs now. Even though the Pool Party pack would make a pretty solid team, it would be great to be able to sub out for different Pool Party champs instead.

I think skins are where this game comes alive for the hardcore player, and seeing more of them and giving more options with team-themes would be a huge bonus in my book.

I like it. :D I agree with amak on this too, we need more themed skins in this game. Expanding the pool party collection would be a fine place to start.

I would like to see a Grim Thresh, kinda like Karthus. They are both undead and the deep sea thresh was in my opinion kinda lame.

dude, that sounds like an awesome skin. maybe the recall could be like, idk, him putting on sunscreen? which would be kinda funny since u mentioned having his head be like a sun lol
