Cosplayers, start your sewing machines!

You spooked us with your Harrowing costumes, and you helped us ring in the New Year with your ornate Lunar Revel cosplays. We have exciting plans for 2015, and even more cosplay round-ups to come, so we thought we’d give you a sneak peek at what’s coming up in case you want to start preparing early!

May Round-up: Fights and Friendship

Challenge: Take a photo of two cosplayers portraying any pair of champions in a candid pose where they are fighting each other, or are having fun together. All champions and official skins will be accepted.

July Round-up: Pool Party!

Challenge: Take a dynamic, splash-art inspired photo where it looks like everyone’s just been caught in the middle of having an awesome pool party. Or put together the largest pool-party group you can with as many cosplayers as possible! Make sure to get everybody’s summoner name who takes part! We encourage you to design your own original pool-party skins for your favourite champion!

September: World Championships

Challenge: Submit photos of your Worlds and esports-inspired skins, including (but not limited to): the Championship skins (Riven, Thresh, Shyvana), Victorious skins (Jarvan, Janna, Elise, Morgana), esports skins (Fnatic, TPA, SKT1) and the Challenger Ahri skin. You can also create an original design based on your favourite champion and esports team. Unicorns of Love Hecarim, anyone?

December: Winter Wonderland

Challenge: Submit photos of your winter holiday-inspired skins; whether they are official Christmas/winter skins or original designs. Extra points for those who create interesting themed backgrounds!

We’ll publish an announcement post closer to the time to clarify any specific rules for the round-ups and to give you submission links. In the meantime, however, rules aren’t likely to change from the previous round-ups (with the exception of which champions/skins we’re looking for) so you can reference rules 3-8 here.

Happy sewing, summoners!

Now I just wish I was a cosplayer.

And had money.

And was creative.

Championship Winner Draven anyone?

Imagine the cockiness in the comments, he could throw trophies instead of axes.

I'd really like to see someone create a nice Zac skin and theme it as snowball zac. His body could be made of snow, the q would have the snow from his hands fall off if it hits and leave snow on the group to collect or it melts when it expires. His w could have some small snow flakes fall around him and his e would make him into a snowball being launched. As for the ulti he could turn into a giant snowball and have small bits of snow disperse from the area after each bounce. For his passive he would burst into snow flakes and have a little glitter effect when it happens after it activates, then melt into water when he fails to regenerate.
