Petition: Malzahar Final Boss skin

Hairy Molestur·3/25/2016, 8:27:06 PM·61 votes·4,086 views

Dearly beloved, my fellow malzahar mains and I have patiently waited for a new malzahar skin, but to no avail. This is a formal petition, up vote this thread so that it may obtain favorable exposure. We desperately want a new skin for our champion and it's been far too long of a wait. Final Boss Malzahar, Warden Malzahar, anything please Riot pay attention to this thread!!!!!!!!!

Meowzahar comes before Final Boss.

I agree that another Malzahar skin would be great! How about this one:

Blade Master Malzahar - It would be amazing and a nice nod to AD Malzahar players. It would be the first follow-up skin in the Blade series. So far, we just have Blade Queen Lissandra:

Here is a quick (MS Paint lol) sketch I made for the concept: http://i.imgur.com/GZxyi6v.png

Q: Two green ethereal blades appear at the edges of the cast area and then slash towards the center after the delay period

W: A portal opens in the ground, exposing a metal spike trap (the spikes could be either stationary in the trap or animated to perform a repeated mechanical thrust/stab motion upwards like the example gif below) http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/siegefall/images/4/40/Trap01_01_sp.gif/revision/latest?cb=20150619200622?noredirect

E: A cluster of green ethereal needles/daggers circles the victim's head, repeatedly stabbing during the spell duration

R: Malzahar emits a constant stream of small metallic blades/shards surrounded by cracks of green lightning. The blades are seen piercing the victim in many places (think Kalista's Rend), essentially immobilizing them via "stapling" as a rather grisly variety of impalement.

Voidling Frenzy: The Voidling's green eyes glow brightly and a sound is played like metal being honed.

With this skin, I think that it would be somewhat important to emphasize the Voidlings a bit. As I mentioned earlier, this would in part be a nod towards AD Malzahar, and most of AD Malzahar's damage comes from his Voidlings. Therefore, the Voidlings should look intimidating, with gleaming sickle bladed limbs, sharpened to a razor's edge.

final boss is probably not gonna happen.

reason 1: the boss skin line requires a different name ie: battle and final used so far. it would be more reasonable to expect something like secret, optional, or true as taglines. this was last explored here in eune boards .

reason 2: veigar and malz have a strong identity in the mid lane, and blitz has support role taken already. that leaves top jungle and adc roles as available. unless you can rally a large group ie 30% of malz players as top laners or junglers, his chances are pretty slim.

I do agree that a skin for him would be nice, but its a matter of finding that thing that is refreshing in the way gentleman gnar, gravelord azir, or death blossom kha'zix skins are.

here's some examples of skins and designs others have thought of, some better than others: http://img1.leaguecraft.com/skins/asset/skin_0_760px_2565_1.jpg http://i.imgur.com/KQUSm9L.jpg http://cd8ba0b44a15c10065fd-24461f391e20b7336331d5789078af53.r23.cf1.rackcdn.com/polycount.vanillaforums.com/attachments/1/8/3/8/0/6/21976.jpg https://cdn0.artstation.com/p/assets/images/images/000/440/876/large/ahmed-maihope-mal-2.jpg?1422553273 http://forums.na.leagueoflegends.com/board/attachment.php?attachmentid=749448&d=1375663361 http://img09.deviantart.net/e695/i/2015/225/7/0/battlecast_malzahar_by_kimmokun-d958dow.jpg

they already have final boss veigar, therefore due to the rules they cannot have two final boss mid apc :(

I would prefer Muad'dib or Forsaken Malzahar.

I dunno when I saw that Cosmic Reaver Kassadin skin I really wanted one for Malzahar :) but yes! New skin! Please Riot!

Void Doctor Malzahar spreading his disease (its aids)

Other champions haven't gotten skins in years yet Snow day Malzahar is invisible? Dang. I understand the want for a new skin but it's not like he's been sacrificed in that department for ages.

This would be awsome, but tbh Swain needs it more :P

XianShetsu3/26/2016, 3:54:24 AM1 votes

There is one final boss...Veigar

Mid Boss Malzahar ;p

air tiger3/26/2016, 6:08:50 AM1 votes

There is only 1 Veigar Final Veigar Boss Veigar

I actually think Elderwood Malzahar would be freaking amazing.

Swaid3/26/2016, 9:29:39 AM1 votes

Yes, I can feel the wallet loosening from my pants...Or that could be a stirring of a different variety.

I already own every Malzahar skin, this would be the magnum-opus of my collection.

Sevixys3/26/2016, 3:43:05 PM1 votes

We malzahar mains have waited for dragon trainer malzahar for ages - no final boss pls :D arcade could be neat tho..

snake patroller3/27/2016, 2:22:06 AM1 votes

But Veigar IS the Finall Boss....you shoulder the Final-er Boss! :D

Onkel Malte3/27/2016, 1:41:30 PM1 votes

I was actually looking forward to something similar to Cosmic Reaver Kassadin.

Ya Know with those nice cosmic Visuals on the Visions or a giant vortex instead of the Pool-Whole W.

Venal Fax8/26/2016, 5:19:44 PM1 votes

I call it Hidden Boss Malzahar

I WISH HONESTLY

Must have Cosmic Reaver Malzahar so that people can have the cosmic duo void humains.

Also I think KateyChaos is waiting until after the MYMU before starting work on new skins for the big 6, given that their abilities / identities might change.

UPVOTE FOR REVERSE MALZAHAR !!!

Wimbledofy3/25/2016, 9:56:53 PM1 votes

Sure he needs a new skin, but I'm not feeling an arcade skin for him. He doesn't seem like he would fit into the arcade style with his kit.

RoodToob3/25/2016, 10:04:08 PM1 votes

As much as it would be cool, you won't get Final Boss sadly. There can (for kinda obvious reasons) only be one Final Boss, which is veigar. Thought i would still like to see a skin similar for malz

Arkale3/25/2016, 10:35:32 PM1 votes

After thinking about Program Lissandra, I realized Program Malzahar would be pretty cool.

Tsen3/26/2016, 12:24:34 AM1 votes

Rather than a Final Boss, I think it's more fitting to have a secret/hidden boss? Cause like we already have a Final Boss. ;-;

Malz hasn't gotten a new skin since snowday (which is a pretty sweet skin).

Legacy Hydralpha3/26/2016, 12:37:48 AM1 votes

Fisherman Malzahar. Voidlings are crabs and space aids surrounds them with salmon. I have no idea why I thought of this but I did.

PopePancake3/26/2016, 12:49:52 AM1 votes

Considering Malzahar is my number 2, a final boss skin for him too would give me an overload of joy!
