Choose the Next Illaoi Skin - Nexus

Just a warning to anybody reading. This is my first post to this forum so this is going to be unprofessional and maybe a bit rambley. That being said I'm gonna go ahead and explain the idea. This idea has to do with the Battlecast Illaoi skin.

So I was with my boyfriend when we was deciding which Illaoi skin to vote for. He voted for Battlecast because it was the coolest (in his opinion) and he liked the story behind it. After some debating I chose Adventurer because she reminded me of a beefy Laura Croft. Anyway me deciding which skin to pick is what gave me and my boyfriend the idea I'm gonna share. So I was analyzing the Battlecast Illaoi skin (I analyze everything. can't help it. I'm an artist) and I noticed that the head Illaoi is holding resembles Blitzcrank's head and that the arm coming out of the ground is like Blitzcrank's arm. So I was telling my boyfriend that if Battlecast Illaoi didn't win that Riot should still make a Battlecast Illaoi skin but make it a special Halloween skin and maybe rename it to something like the "Blitzcrank Destroyer" skin or something similar to that. Then I was saying that if Riot did do something like this they should make a Battlecast Blitzcrank to go along with the new Illaoi skin and that the story behind the two skins would be that Viktor created a new machine called "Battlecast Blitzcrank" to help him take the world over with machinery or something like that and Illaoi (with her being part robot because of some accident), who didn't want mankind to fall, stood up to Viktor and destroyed the new Blitzcrank machine by ripping off its head and arm. Illaoi then decided she would use Battlecast Blitzcrank's head and arm as an example that Viktor can be stopped. My boyfriend (who thought this was a good idea) added that Battlecast Blitzcrank and Battlecast Illaoi (the name Battlecast Illaoi is a good name but I figured it should be changed since the Battlecasts are all Viktor's creations) should have a special interactive animation so that every time there was a Battlecast Blitzcrank on one team and a Battlecast Illaoi on the other and that Illaoi killed the enemy Blitzcrank the death animation for Blitzcrank would be Illaoi ripping Blitzcrank's head and right arm off. I then added that Illaoi and Blitzcrank could have special interactives speaking wise where Battlecast Illaoi would taunt Battlecast Blitzcrank by saying things like "I broke you once. I can do it again" or "Viktor may have remade you but I will DESTROY you". Things like that. And I guess a joke for Illaoi could be something like "Viktor made ANOTHER Blitzcrank?! Well I guess I could use another toy to play with". Although I guess that could be considered as a taunt to. Anyway this idea is centered more on Illaoi than on Blitzcrank. But I do think having a Battlecast Blitzcrank skin that would be like the number one enemy to the Battlecast Illaoi skin would be pretty cool.

That's all for the ideas my boyfriend and I came up with. Sorry for the rambling. I did warn you. But for anyone reading this post what do you think about the idea? Is it a good one? And if it is (and you want Riot to try and do this) could you help make this post noticeable so that Riot would notice it. If Riot can notice this post then maybe they'll consider the idea. Anyway, what does the community think?

In general I think that they should release the other 2 skins as well even if they don't win. I mean this is a poll for the next skin,that doesn't mean the others can't come out later.

@GreenLore That is very true. I do hope all the skins get released eventually. Illaoi needs more skins.

@AnataBakka It wasn't a fine tuned idea honestly lol but a reason why multiple grow could be because she modified the head and arm to work with her like normal abilities since shes like part robot. I don't know some then along that line. OR it could just be she's been killing all the Blitzcrank's that Viktor makes (he's got like an army of Blitzcrank's somewhere) XD
