Could Captain Gangplank get his portrait back?

Sahn Uzal··50 votes·2,587 views

For those who don't remember, before Gangplank lost his arm in the Burning Tides event, Captain Gangplank was his default skin. So he used the Portrait from the Captain Gangplank splash art. Now after MF blew up ''the Deadpool'', Gangplank lost his arm, got a new default skin and got this portrait > Gangplank

I'd like to see Captain Gangplank use his own Portrait, like he used to.

Just for those who don't know, changing ingame portrait is not an uncommon thing, ultimate skins like Spirit Guard Udyr and DJ Sona have unique Portraits aswell!

Could we also attach the GP announcer pack to the skin as well? The VO was pretty awesome, but it was attached to a pretty lame gamemode.

Sorry but it won't be possible, as we are talking about Riot. They barely made it for 3250 RP skins, but people that played GP before his lore update got this skin for free. I upvoted and I am supporting, but Riot seems like they wanted to keep it for the lore.

Yes please.

Yes please, but make it global.

Also redo the lore and make him kill MF instead, I hate his new skin.

This is the face of a man whose jimmies have been throughly rustled. http://www.mobafire.com/images/champion/skins/portrait/gangplank-classic.jpg

He could, you know, just use his other hand?

I like Captain GP's icon better in general.

Would be cool but because this skin was given out for free i doubt they would put any extra effort into it.

A lot of people own it for free, but those who don't own it can buy it for 975 RP. All the newer GP players will have to buy it :P

They should probably rename this skin to pre - betrayal gp too I reckon

Eh, that doesn't really sound smooth does it? I mean ''Pre-Void Kassadin'' is pretty smooth and is not too hard to understand what it's about.

if someone starts playing LoL RN, and looks at Gangplank ''Pre-Betrayal Gangplank'' they'd propably think ''What the fuck?'' Pre-Tides? Eh Captain sounds fine imo :p

Only ultimate skins new the skin's portrait in game. It's part of their package.

super easy to change the game files and make it that way. not something that can get you in trouble.
