Demon Lord Thresh Skin?
Hello All,
I am a huge fan of Thresh! I've been thinking of different skins and concepts that could be implemented on his character recently. One thing that keeps sticking out in my head is the creation of a Demon Lord Thresh Skin! One reason I believe this idea for Thresh keeps sticking out is that Thresh's character and lore make him the Reaper of souls. Being the Chain Warden that he is, a new demon skin could replace his classic green skeleton hook with either a trident w/chain or a magma scythe w/chain. Plus, the added visuals could improve Thresh's badassary with engraved darkened chain armor and a new "demonic" face mask.
It's a close resemblance to the Infernal Nasus skin that recently dropped, but a tad bit more threshy. I've even thought about a total change from to his soul-filled lantern to instead his most recently butchered foe's head simmering on a bed of hot coals inside of the lantern. His belt-line of ghostly keys could be changed to boney skeleton keys that are added with each kill
This skin would entice more players to play Thresh as a top lane bruiser or ranged ADC champion, instead of a support role. Visual updates could oil up his basic attack so that increased attack speed wouldn't cause his hook to swing wildly. Collecting souls could increase AD and Armor/Magic Resist instead of AP. Death Sentence(Q) and Flay(E) could also deal burn damage that decays over time. The Box(R) could be changed into a life stealing pit, with each thirsty skeleton that grabs you dealing damage, healing Thresh for that same damage.
I've attached an image (not my image) to what an "idea" of the skin would look like. New skins are always exciting and usually entice players to play with new champions, and this "Demon Lord Thresh Skin" is one of the many that could come about. Please comment with any additions to the skin concept!
