The missing Arcade and Finale/Battle Boss Skins

PROJECT Leischii·8/11/2015, 11:46:22 PM·3 votes·8,575 views

So Riot just added a sign to the Splash of Arcade Riven and Battle Boss Blitzcrank . ( http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-8axKFcbQD0I/VckZj-C1U0I/AAAAAAAAvj4/PmNFfrb3qXo/s1600/Riven_Splash_6.jpg )

You see that all Skins, that all Skins, that exist for this theme, are shown and 4 places are empty. So I'm now asking myself what will be the last Arcade skin and what will be the other 3 Battle Boss skins.

For Arcade, I think about a midlaner, because every other lane has already a champion. My ideas would be Kassadin and Karthus . Both would fit in this theme. I mean Kassadin = Darth Vader and his particles would be pretty easy to give them an arcade style. Also he didn't get a skin for a very long time. Also, I think it should be a legendary skin to "balance" the price between the 2 themes, so the 2 bundles would have the same price in the shop.

Karthus also has much potential in his particles and his ult could be something like the light of an ufo that beams up a human.

For Battle/Final Boss I don't have so much ideas. What I expect is, that it will be an adc, a toplaner and a jungler. What I could imagine would be Rammus as jungler, altough he has the king skin already. As Toplaner I think Gangplank could be a good choice. 1. He already is the enemy of Miss Fortune, 2. He was a captain already and fits pretty good in the role(Teemo would work too, because we already know that he is the devil in disguise). I really can't think of an adc but I think you could do some pretty cool stuff with Corki ,Jinx or Tristana Like I already mentioned in the Arcade part, the bundles should have equal price

I'm really interested in your thoughts. What do you think could be the missing skins? Why do you think the champs would fit? How do you imagine they will look like? Let's start a discussion and give Riot some good ideas. Comments from Riot members would be very welcome too. Or give us some hints.^^

Arcade quinn please. I'd laugh if a duck hunt-esc bird came flying down and marked someone making a quack quack sound.

The Arcade would have to be a mid laner, and the Final Boss skins would have to be ADC, top, and jungle.

I'm hoping for either Arcade Heimerdinger or Arcade Kayle. A lot of people want Arcade Orianna tho, which I would love if it was done with a DDR theme.

If Mordekaiser, post-rework, will be able to replace the Marksman in the Bosses line, I think that it could be really awesome. If not, Corki sounds like a good fit for a Boss ADC skin of some sorts.

well arcade needs a mid laner and then you have jungle, top and adc for the boss skins, arcade MF recall hints at arcade ahri and a boss skin for teemo (the stickers on the tv during her recall show representation like there a sticker of arcade rivens sword at that was long before now) but they could mean nothing honestly i think any champion would look good in these themes

Arcade:Riven top Hecarim jung Orianna mid MissFortune adc Sona supp Boss: Sion top Vi jung Veigar mid Draven acc Blitzcrank supp This is what I think, the bosses look like villains... so...

A friend of mine just noticed something on the Pixel Art Summoners Rift Wallpaper, Riot showed when Arcade Riven and Battle Boss Blitzcrank got released:

If you look closely there is a Brand-esc corpse on the blue side's toplane. Maybe a reference for Arcade Brand since the "good guys" are missing a midlaner?

So we still need 3 Bosses but I cant yet see a scheme or some hints (except the GP reference in Arcade MFs Splash Art and recall animation)...

Here my guesses, hopes and wishes for the 3 Final Bosses:

ADC:

  • Mothership Corki - This would perfectly fit an archetype of final bosses and since Corki himself is already sitting on some flying thing.... His abilities would also match great with arcade effects, the ult missiles could be mini-spaceships dropped by the the mothership like in the good old times^^

Toplane/Jungle

  • Superboss Gangplank - Following the hints in Arcade MFs splash and recall I would love to see this, his abilities are great for arcade effects, imagine an Arcade R, like MFs E but way bigger :D

  • Boss-Monster Chogath - this has to happen, his ability animations would fit perfectly with arcade style and Cho already IS the Boss Monster of LoL^^
