Event Suggestion - Diana and Leona

The Battle of The Eclipse | League Of Legends -- Official Amino

Over the summer there was the Nightbringer/Dawnbringer event featuring Yasuo Yasuo and Riven Riven . In my opinion, that mission line was one of the more interesting ones as it featured two champions from the same plotline and allowed you to essentially choose a side. I think it would be amazing to have a similar event featuring Diana Diana and Leona Leona , along with releasing two legendary skins for each one. Diana and Leona are contrasts, as one is the aspect of the moon, the other the aspect of the sun. The event could have users focus on one specific quest line, but have a mission pass to obtain every reward.

Probably the best theme that this event could use is the eclipse theme. Both celestial bodies that these champions represent can eclipse each other, possibly representing power of one over the other. This can be interpreted in two different ways. Diana could recieve a "Lunar Eclipse" skin to go with her theme of being the aspect of the moon. The only thing is that in reality, a lunar eclipse is a dimming of the moon. It might make more sense for Diana to have a "Solar Eclipse" skin, emphasizing the moon's dominance over the sun. The same principle applies to Leona.

Of course that's not the only theme that can be explored. Another skin concept I've seen is to reverse the roles of each champion and have a "Solari Diana" and a "Lunari Leona". Setting up a story for these two skins is not as obvious, however the skins would be cool to see.

A lot of the inspiration for this post has come from the concept art on the above link, so please check it out.

Let me know if you guys think that having a Diana/Leona event would be cool :)

It'd be interesting to see how that would happen, especially with the new champion, Zoe, who is the Aspect of Twilight, aka, the inbetween of Sun and Moon. Half Moon + Half Sun = Twilight

So, like, you could either go Nightbreaker Leona, which could be an interesting twist, or Daybreaker Diana.

Possible ideas though Breaker = One of the duo are corrupted, and vow to 'break' their opposite, Leona becoming edgy af, and vowing to shatter the night, while Diana wants an eternal night, if she is corrupted. Only one would be a Breaker though, the other a Maker. Maker = One of the duo is not corrupted, and desires to save their comrade. Daymaker Leona rises to the highest of the Solari ranks, protecting all with her loving, warm embrace. Nightmaker Diana remains aloof, yet caring, fearful of getting too close, yet she vows nothing will harm those she protects. Only one could be a Maker, though.

Eclipse = Solar Eclipse Leona, or, if you want to be more accurate, Solar Eclipse Diana. I would imagine Diana would have more 'shadow' on her, while Leona might have magma cracks or something. Lunar Eclipse would be the same, but with cooler colors, or ice cracks.

There's so many possibilities!

Oh, and give Zoe a "Dusk & Dawn" skin, where she can change between Dusk and Dawn.

The problem is, Riven and Yasuo are pretty popular champions with huge playrates. Leona and Diana... not so much. I'm not saying it wouldn't be cool or anything but I really can't see this happening.

I hope that we are going to get VS events yearly from now on, the event was so much fun.

Other champion rivals I would like to see in a VS event: Caitlyn vs Jinx Viktor vs Jayce Sion vs Galio

And after his VGU: Rammus vs RekSai I know, this is not a rivalry in the lore right now, but in my opinion, it should be after Rammus' VGU.

Both live currently in Shurima. Rammus could be a Shuriman demigod wandering the deserts and protecting people. Meanwhile Rek'Sai is an apex predator and devouring humans. Both are related to the element earth in some way.

We already had a Diana/Leona event, that's where Infernal Diana came from. It was pretty much the exact same thing as Riven/Yasuo, but it was to see who would get their new skin...and Diana got it. To clarify, there was an event called "Fire vs Ice", where two sides ("Team Fire" and "Team Ice") went head-to-head on the Rift. Team Fire won, and so Diana got her skin instead of Leona.

Holy moly dude! 10/10 would play (im a missions slav so this says nothing but anyway), the idea is awesome...i hope some rioter sees it and starts something like this (if they dont already have something like this planned)...

I like the idea but I'm not into role swap between them as I wouldnt see a reasoning behind it especially not to waste Legendaries on that. As for the eclipse idea they seem rather "meh" to me. But I'd love another event like this especially for them too but I'd wish for something new as the theme. Like Yas and Riven they are not aspects or gods it doesnt have to be the theme of the champ to be a good skin.

My suggestion: Elderwood One can be the evil side of the forest living under the surface (Diana) and the other one on the good side on the top with the sun (Leo) for the colors I'd imagine Diana to be a Darkgreen Witch like with leafes while Leo gets some brightgreen leafes & purple blossoms stuff like that.

P.S.: I swear to god if Leo gets one more skin with orange or yellow particles I'll kill someone!
