Surfer Singed name change?

Should Surfer Signed's name be changed to Pool Party Singed, to better fit with the skin theme?

Maybe even update his ult to look more like water and give his flip a diving board sound effect.

I like surfer singed. He's a man of the ocean not the pool.

I guess, but he was kinda the alpha Pool Party skin and it would be nice if he got an update to be as polished as the rest of them.

Battlecast Xerath.

Was the first skin named Battlecast. Nowhere near the polish of the skin line.

Also true, but I don't think the hype behind Battlecast or Xerath is as big as Pool Party, and everyone is clamoring to get their favorite champion a Pool Party skin.

Welp he already has one in a sense, so probably won't ever get one. I mean they don't all HAVE to absolutely share the same name to have a similar theme. Example of how there's several fire based skin lines that are all similar in different ways (Zyra, Wukong, Warwick, Diana, Nasus, Alistar).

Fire is a much broader theme than having fun in a pool or beach setting.

And just having a surf board doesn't kick Singed out of the pool, Leona also has a surf board in her Pool Party skin. Also, it would just be nice to have more consistency with some things. Like when they changed Ryze's lore, confirming he was born human, making the "Human Ryze" skin inconsistent, which is why they are changing it to "Young Ryze."

Never said it did.

That's different though. The skin was what he used to look like before being taken over with the rune power so of course they can change the name there as it's again a skin related to lore. Most skins don't have lore. Yes it'd be nice to have a bit more consistency, just like I was stating with the other skin example but it most likely won't happen.

Wukong, Diana, Nasus, and Ali are all Infernal. The oddball are Firefang and Wildfire.

No. Wukong is Volcanic not Infernal.

I thought the same thing, maybe Riot will do that when they decide to rework him again?
