Buzzer-Shot Zilean Concept

Hello this is my first concept. It would be for a premium Zilean skin. The idea is to continue the tradition of basketball themed skins. Whenever I play Zilean and I am tossing his bombs around I always feel like I'm draining baskets from the 3-point line. Anyone else? This is where the inspiration for my skin idea came from. Please forgive my ignorance on the details of skin creation.

His look would change. In the tradition of Dunkmaster Darius he would get all new look, animations, sounds, and sprites.

Zilean's clock is basically the center piece of the character. My idea would have his clock become a classic dot-matrix style basketball scoreboard. The back face would feature a clock, that could potentially display in real-time the actual game-timer up to a maximum of 59:59. It would also feature something along the lines of a blue, and a purple tower graphic to depict a team vs team theme. The Left, and right faces would have dot-matrix screens in Blue and Purple showing the respective team's scores up to a max of 99.

Zilean himself would be wearing a Jersey in the tradition of D.M. Darius, that hangs down fairly low. His bombs would become basketballs, naturally. They can either stay as explosives, or maybe instead of exploding they pop with a snappy sound and animation. If he lands his stun, a scoreboard buzzer can sound.

Custom taunts, jokes are a must for premium priced skins. They should be basketball themed, in the tradition of D.M. Darius.

Zilean would also receive a similar Basketball dribble animation like D.M. Darius as well as custom dance and TP animations doing some dribble tricks or shot tricks.

His bomb target / timer sprite should become something like a birds-eye-view basketball net.

Just some food for thought.

Thanks for reading, and take care!
