Can There Be a Champ that is a Centipede?

I know we already have Skarner, Elise, Kha'zix and technically Cho'Gath as bug inspired champs but wouldn't it be cool if they made a champ that was a fearsome foe, like a top/jg Centipede that is a super mobile assassin that loses attack damage based on how long he could move. Or make Aurelion sol get a Centipede skin and call it Void Aurelion Sol. I dunno i just want a insect based champion that is known to be the king of all insects due to its massive ferocity and epic proportional value. Would be cool if the more he was damaged, the more legs he would lose. hence the more legs he loses, the lower his movement speed would become.

-shudder-

All those little legs. Ew.


It's definitely possible, but I think Riot might run into problems similar to those they had when they made Elise: having to be REALLY careful not to make her spider form too realistic, since a lot of people can't stand spiders. Centipedes fall into the same boat, and given the difficulty in animating one AND the potential concerns I think you'd need a really cool concept to sell the champion idea.

I know that she isn't what you are looking for.... but damn, that description fits Rek'Sai extremely well. RekSai Insect based, queen of her own subrace (Xer'Sai) and known for her ferocity (her resource bar is called "Fury".... pretty close).

That being said, if they went with something like a Centipede champion, I could imagine it to be the "Parasite Voidling" so many people are wishing for. But that trope is maybe already taken for the next upcoming champion. At least I hope so.... give me the Void parasite, Riot. ;__;

i submitted a really basic centipede champion design, though im not sure how feasible it would be
