xXX. This is not CCOS. XXx

Hello everybody. This is one time only (as for now) contest for concept creators. Not like CCOS, this is guided concept creation contest, so you will require to follow certain style and rules while making a concept. The most original and closes to the style concept will win this contest, gaining the rewards.

RULES

  1. One entry per summoner/account.
  2. Entries are taken up to 2016 - 04 - 30 (yyyy/mm/dd). No limit on how many entrants can participate. The winner will be announced at 2016 - 05 - 01.
  3. Entry must be yours.
  4. Entry must have kit and lore (quotes and other additional info is a bonus).

#GUIDE

Now, your champion must "spin around" these things and you must represent them as closely as you can. The closer representation of these key factor your champion is, the more likely you are to win this contest. Key aspects:

  1. Your champion is from bubbling bog or spent his/her/its time there for one reason or another;
  2. Your champion uses dark magic or dark magical tools of any sorts;
  3. Your champion is or would be not liked in Noxus for any reason;
  4. Your champion suffers from something;
  5. Your champion fears death for one reason or another;
  6. You champion loves certain animals/ insects (for example cats, rats, spider, etc).

HOW TO ENTER

  1. Post your concept in the Concepts & Creation board.
  2. Link your champion in the comment section bellow.
  3. I may or may not confirm your entry. Don't worry, there is no limit of entrants and everyone will have their chance, even if i don't personally confirm the entry.

REWARDS

  1. Complete review for the winner concept (or any other concept winner prefers).
  2. Short 3D animation for their summoner name. (don't expect anything fancy, but i will try my best)

In addition, it would be very helpful, if your concept would have GCCC in the title.

#BONUS Some old school music for you to enjoy, while crafting your concepts https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_izvAbhExY&list=PLWwIi0zOJaFMEhMhrnKa9vvaIWFyT6Sr1&index=1

Funny -- I was debating starting up this very sort of contest as a monthly thing just a few days ago.

Now, your champion must "spin around" these things and you must represent them as closely as you can. The closer representation of these key factor your champion is, the more likely you are to win this contest. Key aspects:

  1. Your champion is from bubbling bog or spent his/her/its time there for one reason or another;
  2. Your champion uses dark magic or dark magical tools of any sorts;
  3. Your champion is or would be not liked in Noxus for any reason;
  4. Your champion suffers from something;
  5. Your champion fears death for one reason or another;
  6. You champion loves certain animals/ insects (for example cats, rats, spider, etc).

Hm. So -- initial thoughts:

This is a lot of restrictions. Like, it's doable, but you're putting dampers on a TON of possible angles.

I'd personally suggest a smaller list: when I was thinking of running one of these, I'd have cut it down to one or two more general prompts, or done something like this:

YOUR CHAMPION MUST 1: Use dark magic of any sort.

SELECT TWO OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWING 1: Your champion suffers from an ailment or condition. 2: Your champion fears death for a significant reason. 3: Your champion is from a bog/swamp, or spends significant time there for some reason. 3: Your champion opposes or is opposed by Noxus. 4: Your champion has a connection with animals or insects.

Just an example, but I think you'd see a much wider and more interesting range of entries with a little more freedom.

Gotta go fast then summoner 6

Implementing restrictions will probably turn off a lot of people though :I

Actually, I might do this kek. I have an old champion concept that I submitted a long time ago that fits most of the restrictions already. Some lore updates and he'll be good. I'd actually like you to check him out. I worked on him for weeks, and I'd like to see your take on him. (Note: hasn't been updated in a while.) Nefalz, the Herald of Silence

After stalking through of a majority of your posts, I have to ask a few questions. HOW MUCH TIME?????? HOW MUCH TIME HAVE YOU SPENT ON YOUR WHOLE ALTERNATE UNIVERSE???? THE AMOUNT OF INFORMATION IS STAGGERING!!!!!

I'm genuinely impressed.
