Warring Kingdoms Skin ideas

I was a huge fan of Dynasty Warriors growing up, so I loved the Warring Kingdoms skins. I think we need more (because they look awesome). So I am going to base the League characters (mostly by looks) on who they would reference best. (Note, this is opinionated).

Sion Would look amazing as Dian Wei. They both weild an axe, they are both bulky, and they are both bald (well, technically Sion is). The only difference is one is a zombie. Which, seeing as (spoilers, I guess?) Dian Wei dies protecting CaoCao, it could be referenced that it is Dian Wei reborn. http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2013/363/e/5/8f7f5143fbf2b211c3d2c3a9cb8065380dd78e24_by_ladytuonela-d6zxlo6.png

Swain Would look amazing as Sima Yi. http://86bb71d19d3bcb79effc-d9e6924a0395cb1b5b9f03b7640d26eb.r91.cf1.rackcdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/dynasty-warriors-8-sima-yi-artwork.jpg

Udyr Would look amazing as Meng Huo. He is practically begging for a Meng Huo skin. https://quecosplayhago.files.wordpress.com/2012/06/54-meng_huo.png

Yasuo Another champion that is begging to be a Dynasty Warriors reference, Yasuo would look amazing as Zhou Tai. http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/dynastywarriors/images/5/57/Zhou_Tai_-_Dynasty_Warriors_4.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20130131010456

Braum would fit well as Cao Ren. Maybe not in personality, but Cao Ren is a wall, and so is Braum. http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/dynastywarriors/images/5/50/Caoren-dw7.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20101217170021

Jax Now, I have no idea why this hasn't been thought up yet. But Jax would look amazing as Pang Tong. The two are practically identical to one another in looks. http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs5/i/2004/333/a/7/Pang_Tong_by_DW3Girl.jpg

I could go on, but there are a ton of champs, and that would take a while to cover. These are just my top picks, but I could probably find one for every champ (well, the ones that look human-ish).

EDIT: I had another one I couldn't help but tag onto this.

Darius as Xu Huang. http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090413050854/dynastywarriors/images/a/a3/Xu_Huang.jpeg

I'd like to see Dian Wei charging a full team with his chest full of arrows.

Now that I get a comparison image, yes. I can see it now. I feel like such an idiot...

Anyway, who else is there we can give a Dynasty Warriors skin?

Does League have anyone that can be given a Zhang Fei skin? Or a Liu Bei? C'mon, let's get all three sworn brothers from Shu in there!

Garen as Guan Ping or Fu Xi

It's a shame League doesn't have any Naginata users or anything like that. Then we could have Guan Yu. You think they could make Ashe a Sun Shang Xiang-based Warring Kingdoms skin? If I remember correctly, Xiang used to be a bow user, and even after she started using the rings, wasn't her nickname still "Maiden of the Bow"?

I honestly don't know... I'm just throwing out some more ideas.

I just read that Warring Kingdoms Nidalee is suppose to reference Zhurong... I'm sorry Riot, but that looks NOTHING like Zhurong... And Warring Kingdoms Katarina is suppose to be Diao Chan... Riot, pls. You did amazing with the other skins, why did you fail with two of the best female roles in DW?
