Hi, I am writing to purpose creating a skin or character dedicated to Christina Grimmie. She was a singer, youtuber, twitch streamer and summoner that was killed June 10th. I wanted to see about doing something in her memory and this was my favorite thought and i was hoping to find out if it was a possibility.
FACE THE WlND4 votesNo. This would send a message that famous people are more important to Riot than the average player, which is kind of messed up. There are many league players who have died due to unfortunate events, don't get me wrong what happened to Grimmie is devastating, but if this happened to some random nobody would care one bit. Also it's just a bad idea.
vampireschoolgrl2 votesI respect and understand your opinion but i believe it is wrong. I believe honoring her by doing this would be a very respectful thing and that most people would see it that way. And i was only really hoping for a limited skin or something in her honor not something that would completely change the game. But Grimmie made an impact on more than just the music community and i think it would be a nice way to show respect to her and what has happened. It was just a proposition that i wanted to put out there.

I was glad to upvote until I saw the very last statement...then I wanted to upvote 100x.
Seriously though, this is 100% spot on.

This^ also why would Riot make a skin or a character in memory of Christina Grimmie but not the 50 people who got killed at Pulse?......Fuck logic I guess. http://www.auplod.com/u/uopadl6d63e.png
vampireschoolgrl2 votesI think it would be great to do something for both if possible just i had started emailing and talking with people in riot about the Christina Grimmie thing before i had known about the events that happened at pulse. It was not an act of disrespect just the email i had gotten told me to post about my idea on here and i had not said anything about pulse yet. Also people are trying to get the new Zelda game to have Christina Grimmie in it so i don't think it is that outlandish and it was just my idea of a way to honor her since i knew streamed league on twitch while on tour and stuff. I was not intending to offend or upset anyone it was just a simple suggestion that i thought would be nice.
Surr20plz4 votesYou guys shouldn't be down voting this it's disrespectful.
That said, I don't think they should make a skin for her unless it's to help cover funeral costs or some charitable thing. They could do one for the families of the orlando victims too. Acts of charity aren't mutually exclusive.
They didn't even do anything like this when one of their own died though so I don't expect them to start now.
TheTankMasterAlp2 votesShe deserves to be remembered through a tribute like this.
Her death was a tragedy that must be remembered.
She loved the Legend of Zelda franchise as well as this game franchise as well.
Her legacy must live on in the future and I hope Riot games does do something to remember her.
This skin or character's proceeds should go to a charitable cause that Christina would of supported.
God bless you Christina Grimmie and I hope you rest in peace in the kingdom of heaven.
