[Skin Idea] Kool Aid Man Gragas

Why?

I don't know about you, but to me, Kool Aid Man is a comical commercial figure. This skin would provide Riot with a popular, comical skin to sell to us players who have such well developed, esoteric humor as to laugh at the idea that they are playing as Kool Aid man in League. Also, by creating a partnership, or at least a sponsorship deal) between Kraft Foods (The parent company of General foods (sells Kool Aid)) and Riot, providing sponsorship opportunities for Riot.

How?

As an esport, League certainly has the potential to gain sponsors such as American Express for tournaments. It could also potentially be possible for Riot to get away with a skin that merely alludes to Kool Aid, but it would be optimal for the skin to be as well connected to Kool Aid as possible

Basic Skin Changes

Personally, I'm no artist, so i'm sorry, but I have not constructed a picture for the new Gragas, but I certainly have a good idea of what needs to be seen, which includes three options. Firstly, Gragas could have only one fundamental skin change: his barrels are pitchers of Kool Aid instead of normal Barrels. But the optimal options would be either to have A) A complete sin change and shape change that makes the Entire body of Gragas the classic pitcher of Kool Aid, as seen in the video below, or Gragas would have the Gragas model shape with a glassy outer texture and a red inner one. Also, the general colors of the effects of Gragas's abilities are red rather than purple

Changes to Abilities

Barrel Roll: The Barrel is no longer a Barrel, but a Pitcher of Kool Aid

Drunken Rage: He Drinks a glass of Kool Aid (or from the pitcher)

Body Slam: He says "OH YEAH" after his dash is complete

Explosive Cask: The Keg is - of course - a Kool Aid Pitcher, but the explosion will leave a red stain on the area for a short time afterwards.

I tend to hate all things Dane Cook and Family Guy so I can't evaluate this idea objectively. They're both sources of infinite banality and have ran anything humorous about the character into the ground. If I saw this skin on the fields of justice it would just make my skin crawl.

My vote is no.

Don't turn gragas into a giant smiley pitcher. It should just be gragas with the smiley face painted on his bare belly lol.

... To be killed by someone that can say "OH YEAHHHH!!!!" This would be very annoying. Can you link him to another champion. Like, if this champ kills him. They so.. NO! NO NO NO!... NO!

The only problem with this, including other skins ideas, is the fact of copyright issues if the design is too closely related to the actual character.

It is not death that leads to "OH YEAH" it is the dash
