They see all of these Zac skin threads and don't do a thing about it, but make him have a cameo skin in one of the other champion's splash art hehehe.

Still waiting on that, maybe a pool party Sona as well....

I think I also see a gragas 'cannonball' skin too up on the diving board.

S H A Y C 0May 15, 20158 votes

wow...thats just rude rito

FlornMay 15, 20155 votes

There is also Gragas and lulu at the top of the diving board and if you look at the full art on this page (http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/media/art/pool-party-skins) you will also see Kha jumping off in the background.

And the graves pic has aatrox, The lee pic has Oriana.

Basically this is Riots way of teasing the themed releases for the future. Just look at the battle cast skins as an example of this

Well, we will be getting another batch of pool party skins soon, as they come out each summer. So odds are Zac will finally get his second skin. Might even get lucky and get a Chroma to go with it, so that we have 6 different colors of blob!

They could at least tell us why they can't add this zac skin Zac . Zac has too many skins? Yea i think its the reason, they need to take care of those with low amount of skins like Annie , Ashe , Katarina or Ezreal .Those 4 needed 1 skin in 2015 because they are low on skin.

Zac Release Date : March 28, 2013. 2 years after he still got 1 skin, and its the only 2013 champ with 1 skins!

Riot hates skinning Zac because he's hard to program for. Personally I don't see how a simple color swap could be that hard, but I don't understand the coding that well and if it was going to be hard on any champ it would be Zac because his entire form is a visual programming nightmare.

AbsoluteSadmanMay 15, 20153 votes

just give the poor guy a chroma or 2

EhkrickorMay 15, 20152 votes

yeah but we've been asking for chroma skins for zac.... and they released chroma skins... for Fizz Blitzcrank Lucian Leona Garen

Like we were like "we would take a bundle of simple recolors over not having anything," and rito was like "thats a great idea, lets do that for everyone but Zac

junglerboy16May 15, 20155 votes

They said they don't want to make a Chroma for Zac until after they give him a full skin, because they feel like it would be cheating Zac players who've been waiting for a real Zac skin like Gentleman Zac.

Well, will the lava flow or will he just be a blotchy orangey/red colour? Will the coulour be roughly uniform (a patch of orange could stretch and look horrible)? Would the fire move with his skin? Would it stretch? That seems hard to animate to me.

If you notice, both of Zac's skins are basically just one colour. Even two colours could cause problems. Aad who wants a Zac skin that is just a recolour anyway? I want something awesome.

qetzelMay 16, 20151 votes

The difficulty there is making lava flow though. While it could be the same consistency, it isn't a uniform colour. It isn't all red or all green. Te mixture of reds oranges and yellows would really look cool on Zac when he is standing still, but when his arms stretch, what happens then? Do the patches on his arm suddenly get really long? Do we elongate the yellow spots? Riot hasn't done anything like that before, possibly because it is hard.

The question with Zac skins is "What happens when he strrrrrretches?".

No. I think we are thinking along similar lines. I just think it is harder to actually pull off than you do.

TheFirstLegoMay 17, 20151 votes

Zac is ANY character designers nightmare, even if you are only making a new skin, think of all the different ways he moves and stretches, and bounces. It's horrifying from an animators viewpoint, and would YOU like making all the different animations for ONE ability, or even joke? Or even just ONE movement for walking? its totally summoner 3 ing

not to put a damper on this at all cause I really want a new zac skin but our good friend yorick is still sitting with no new skins besides the 2 lower quality ones that came out as his release skins

This is not trolling, this is an insult.

Auz the RipperMay 16, 20151 votes

I...I don't understand the difference

DwarvenGiantMay 16, 20152 votes

I feel like his next skin is taking time either because it's a Pool Party skin that is prepared for this summer or because it's a Legendary skin (perhaps he'll finally get a suit!).

Shroom JunkieMay 15, 20151 votes

When was this picture taken? It still has the old Renekton splash art.

YatsufusåMay 15, 20151 votes

Today, but I was looking at an older picture from the PBE. Still, the current pool party has the same Zac skin.

TransgressorMay 15, 20151 votes

Cameo skin? That's just him bathed in fluoride.

YatsufusåMay 15, 20151 votes

Regardless of what's causing his discoloration, it's still a Cameo!

TourianMay 15, 20151 votes

What I see is a placeholder for a renekton skin.

PyrocerebusMay 15, 20151 votes

this splash was like last year guys and it wasn't as long since his release but yes he does need a new skin and this could be really cool

skyfall619May 16, 20151 votes

in the background to the right of ziggs, you can see Ryze . on the end of the diving board in the foreground is pool party Gragas as well.

Only Play DariusMay 16, 20151 votes

I think the real trolling is the Pool Party Ahri cameo.

YatsufusåMay 16, 20151 votes

She has more than enough skins though. Just because you are wet over Ahri doesn't mean it's trollier than Zac. Lol

PhoenixSlayer13May 16, 20151 votes

cough "OMG Rito you just made Zac blue WTF cough

I want Zac to have more skins too, but people will likely complain that, hey, this is just a recolor.

YatsufusåMay 16, 20151 votes

He could look like Nami's water spells though. Maybe have a joke where he gets pour from a pitcher into a glass? Make some fishies swim around in his torso and when he ults, his fish would jump out of the water and land right back into his amorphous mass on every bounce he does? I mean.. there are a ton of things they could do.

TheFirstLegoMay 16, 20151 votes

Lol Everyone who is trippin over this needs to chill, Riot is oviously going to add the Pool Party Zac skin this summer, just be patient. If they don't by this summer, then we all start trippin and riot the Riot headquarters, no?
