Can we get some future PROJECT: Skins mostly for "Supports" and "Tanks"?

As the title states, there's been a lot of skins for the following:

Top Lane:

  • Fiora

Mid Lane:

  • Yasuo
  • Zed
  • Katarina
  • Ekko

ADC:

  • Ashe
  • Lucian
  • Jhin
  • Vayne

Jungler:

  • Master Yi
  • Vi

Support:

  • Leona

What we need are more Project: Skins for mostly Supports and Tanks (viable Top lane Tanks, maybe 1-2 Jungle Tanks).

Thanks to a lovely player, there is a theme that all champions all had weapons, and if not are non-magical. So a couple of the champs i crossed out.

Some champions that could benefit from this:

Top Lane:

  1. Project: Irelia - Deserves a new skin imo, her blades are a weapon
  2. Project: Jarvan IV - His Spear is a weapon
  3. Project: Shen - Nemesis of Zed, might as well make him a Project right? he has blades(?)
  4. Akali: Long overdue for a skin, her blades are a weapon.

Supports:

  1. Project: Taric - Hammer as a weapon ~~2. Project: Karma ~~ ~~3. Project: Rakan ~~
  2. Project: Braum - The shield can be a weapon
  3. Project: Janna - The staff can be a weapon ~~6. Project: Zyra ~~ ~~7. Project: Morgana ~~

Jungler:

  1. Project: Sejuani - Even the boar she rides on would be mechanical = Legendary Skin 2. Project: Evelynn - Invisible Project: Skin? heck yeah! Make it legendary too
  2. Project: Diana - Her sworn nemesis leona has a skin and she has a weapon

ADC: ~~1. Project: Xayah ~~ 2. Project: Miss Fortune - Another ADC I guess. Too many skins 3. Project: Jinx - Another ADC. Again, a lot of skins too.

Champions that don't need Project: Skins:

  • Sona - Has DJ Sona
  • Camille - Has Program Camille
  • Soraka - Has Program Soraka
  • Lissandra - Has Program Lissandra
  • Kayle - Has Aether Wing skin already
  • Lux - Too popular and has multiple different skins already
  • Nidalee - Has headhunter and also Super Galaxy
  • Jayce - Has full metal skin
  • Gangplank - Has Dreadnova Gangplank
  • Caitlynn - Has Pulsefire Skin
  • Darius - Has Dreadnova Skin
  • Annie - Has Hextech Annie

Eve - better off as a Program Eve Skin

I agree that new PROJECT skins for supports and tank would be a great idea, but I'm just going to point something out here.

All of the PROJECT skins are of humans with special weapons (and occasionally abilities). That seems to be the theme for who's a candidate for the skin line. I may be wrong, but that's the feeling I get when I look at the existing PROJECT skins. So, a good number of champions you mentioned, the ones whose kits are more magic focused or who aren't 100% human (Taric, Karma, Rakan/Xayah, Janna, Braum, Zyra, Morgana, Sejuani - because of Bristle, Evelynn) probably won't get considered. Shen and Braum are toss-ups as far as I can tell, and Taric is arguably in this category as well. But that doesn't mean that the remaining candidates (Irelia, J4, Akali, Diana, and MF) aren't good ones, though I personally would toss MF off the list, she already has a lot of skins, and a good portion of them are decent ones. Besides, there are already a lot of PROJECT adcs.

So, that leaves Irelia, J4, Akali and Diana. All 4 could use a good skin, and could theoretically fit the PROJECT line (if my theory is correct).

That's my two cents, but any of the champions on the list could get the PROJECT skins, after all. But thanks for making this post - maybe Riot will even let people vote on the next PROJECT skins, like they did with the Illaoi skin.

Program and Project are in the same universe, so they can't get one skin if they have the other

You know, Vi does more than Jungling. I play her in every lane. She's like the brawler version of Quinn. Can play any role and still be useful. Also, Ashe does play the support role every now and then.

So there you go. 2 more champs that have project skins that meet what you're asking for.

I feel the same way you do but about the Star Guardian line. There's poppy, then 3 adcs, 3 supports, 3 mages. I reaaaallly want star guardian Irelia to happen (Vi too but she just got her Project skin sooo) With the Irelia rework i think she would have enough particles to make it really cool. Project Diana sounds nice, I'd get that one.

Eh oversaturating the game with a skin theme kinda cheapens the already existing skins. They should just keep it to blade users. Anyone not using a blade shouldn't have and shouldn't get one of these.
