Star Guardian skin for a jungler?

Chibi Vixen·Sep 8, 2017·3 votes·1,829 views

I really love the new Star Guardian skins. And I love that there is one in every role like ADC, midlaner, top and support. But wouldn't it be awesome if there was a skin for a "typical jungler"? I'm just thinking that it would be really awesome if Graves would get a skin. Then you would have a full on Star Guardian assemble for your team. Just a though, but I think it would be awesome.

I would prefer a skin for Graves, I think he's one of the best junglers there is and he deserves some dazzling attention. Just imagine Graves unique voice lines in it. "I like my enemies two ways, dazzling, or about to be" "So...I like rainbows now?" "Star Guardian walkin'" "I'm gonna show you sunshine and sparkles" "I can still smoke the cigar, right?"

I think it should be a male, tho. I mean, so far it's only Ezreal holding up the manliness in the gang. And I really think that Graves would make a good Star Guardian. I would say that Ezreals skin is kind of a joke as well. It's like Riot finally gave up and made him feminine. No hate or anything, but I still think it would be awesome as hell.

Plenty of other Male candidates, and better ones at that, exist

I like Rakan, but can they give him a skin that isn't a mirror of Xeyah?

But I was talking about making a jungler into a star guardian. I mean, you usually don't play the characters you suggested jungle, no?

Taric Jungle is sleeper op, ekko jungle is good, shen jungle works, xin zhao jungle is very good, yasuo jungle is meh but workable, Rakan i don't know, never tried.

But.... that's their thing. ô.o In my opinion, both of them should always get skins together, not seperated.

Ezreal is not really a joke. Magical boys are a thing in anime and Ezreal is fitting the bishounen trope (pretty boy) simply the best. So if they wanted to make a magical boy, he was the obvious choice.

But I can't name a single bearded muscle guy ala Graves, who is also a magical boy. And I highly doubt that this exists in a serious way, because I can't imagine that someone would take that serious.

Graves just doesn't fit in the theme in my opinion. =/ Nidalee, Sejuani, Vi, these are all great candidates for a jungler Starguardian.

Personally, I would prefer Sejuani or Vi, since they could fulfill the trope of the bokkuko (tomboy). As far as I can tell, we don't have that in the Starguardian line yet. Closest to that is Poppy, but she doesn't really match what I had in mind.

My vote is for Nidalee , or Sejuani with a Star Guardian familiar mount

Chibi VixenSep 8, 20171 votes

That could work. My vote is for Sejuani in that case. But it would be awesome having a big ol' marksman with a beard in white clothing and a big shotgun shooting rainbow buck shots

I mean, it'd be great as a joke skin, but I just can't see it working and fitting into the Star Guardian lore we have now. Snow Day is a pretty good "dazzling" skin for him, though.

Jungler Starguardian, sure, I would love that. Graves? No. It is like with Starguardian Urgot. Joke material, but everyone who takes this skin line just slightly serious would agree that this shouldn't be a thing.

My suggestion for the Starguardian Jungler:
