Any possibility of Molten Zac becoming a future skin?

Molten Zac would be nice, a Zac who hardens and softens as lava drips out from beneath his rocky exterior.

Or maybe he could just be a giant mass of lava.

Hi everyone. You guys are thinking in the right vein. That is, keeping the animations of the original. A large part of a character's identity is the silhouette and animations.

Disclaimer: my posting on this topic is not saying that we will or won't do this skin, I'm just appreciating a well made post that is thinking on the right track :)

I think this is a pretty interesting idea personally.

The thing about Zac is that... well, he's goo. Any new skin that doesn't completely change his animations needs to make sense with his current "goo" animations. Anything that's obviously solid won't work for Zac, so lava with bits of protruding rock that don't mess with his movement is a good plan.

Another option could be to go for a skin with plenty of springs, like the Superhero Zac concept someone posted. It's more solid, but still allows for flowing and stretching movements. The only problem is figuring out instances where he loses his limbs.

Scorched Earth Zac. He is covered with plates of hardened lava at convenient spots so the animations can remain fluid and the same pretty much. The only difference that would be cool to see animation wise would be if his R and perhaps E would turn him into a Molten Lava Rock that crunches when it hits the ground and Lava Slab that crashes hard into the ground respectively.

Scorched Earth set possibly?

This would probably just be a different texture, but it could be a nice victory if given that special touch.

I do think that adding different animations to Zac might not make him feel like Zac anymore. The only time I can think of his model moving differently is for a legendary skin.

A spring loaded Zac could fit that model, like Phoenixslayer13 said.

This sounds like Malphite. But it could be cool.

This reminds me of back when Zac was first announced, some people (I don't remember who) thought it would be a good idea for a bunch of Zac skins to be hyper-cheap pallete swaps. Like Pink, Red, Yellow, that sorta thing for maybe 250 RP or so considering it'd just be some different hues and not really an entirely new model. Sort of like Emerald Taric and the likes used to be, only just click-and-fill Paint editing.
