[Skin Suggestion] Transistor Riven
Hello everybody,
I have recently finished the video-game marvel "Transistor" ( by Supergiantgames ) and while playing I have always noticed an eerie similarity between the silent protagonist "Red" and our beloved and puppy - crushing Riven
. So why not make a "Red"- Skin for Riven? Riot always had a reputation for making pop-culture refrencing skins ( i.e. "Super Galaxy Rumble" and "Warring Kingdoms Jarvan IV" ), so it wouldn't be far off for them to make this skin.
[IDEAS]
[ And minor spoiler warning for "Transistor"]
For those, who haven't played the game ( and I would definetly recommend you to ;) ); In "Transistor" the main character "Red" is in possession of the giant and powerful sword the "Transistor". This sword allows her to perform special abilities or - as they are called in the game - Functions() like Crash (), which is a basic melee attack that also stuns and weakens the opponent, and so on and so forth. Those Functions() can either be normal abilities, passives or passives for other abilities. Beware the following section is more suited for people who have played the game ( I will also link a video for refrence.)
The Abilities
-
The Q So for the first two activations of Riven's Q I imagine them to look something like two horizontal Crash() and the third would look like a Cull(). ( I am not a designer, so I don't know if it is a problem if her movement circle looks different with a different skin, because Cull() is a up-rising Slash attack, while Riven's third Q is usually a downward Slam coming out of a flip. )
-
The W The W could be something like a Tap()
-
** The E** The dash would appear as a Jaunt() and her shield would not only be visible by a her whitle life bar, but also something like a Bounce(), when used as a passive.
-
The R Either something simple like three Breach() firing in a straight line or something more fancy like maybe a fast Flood()
Theme
What I like about good skins is that they completely change the character of the champion. ( Like "Definetly not Vel'Koz"
LMAO) So while default Riven is this battle prodigy beasting around this lump of iron and death one-handidly, "Red"- Riven would be more graceful and subtle.
"Red" in "Transistor" was not warrior, quite the contrary she was a gifted musican and singer before her voice got stolen away from her.
- Changes:
Maybe "Red"-Riven always holds her sword two-handed, because she isn't a trained soldier or let it slide on the ground all the time. During her backport animation, she could hug her sword and hum something. Her dance could involve her dancing with he sword ( maybe a Walzer). etc.
Overall, I hope you got an idea on how "Red"-Riven could look like, if you got some ideas why not share it and leave them in the comment section below and have a nice day.[slayer-jinx-catface]
