2019 VS Event Concept Ideas

2017 brought us DawnbringerRiven vs Nightbringer Yasuo, with the theme of Light vs Darkness 2018 brought us God-King Garen vs God-King Darius , with the theme focusing on Lawful Dictatorship vs Unruly Chaos

The VS events brings pits champions who have rivalries in their lores, but adds a twist to them (making them symbolize good vs evil). For the 2019 VS event, I am certain that Riot will stick to this main theme, and make skins based on the premise of Good vs Evil.

Here are some champions that have the possibility for being in the 2019 VS event:

Shen vs Zed - The rivalry between these two ninjas is astonishing, with Shen being the perfect student to his master while Zed struggled to keep up, only to be corrupted by the shadows and murder their own master. These two champions go way back, and their rivalry with each other would make a pretty good VS event for 2019 (Possibility of happening: High)

Ornn vs Volibear - Ah yes, the two Demigod brothers. Ideal champions to be chosen for the VS event. Ornn just wants to build and have peace, while Volibear strives for war. These two top lane juggernauts can go ham against each other, and it might bring back Volibear back into the spotlight (since he currently only has a .31% pick rate). However, we already had two top-laners already taking the spotlight for 2018, so the possibility of Riot doing an event involving another set of bruisers is slightly lower. (Possibility of happening: Average)

Kayle vs Morgana - Speaking of sibling rivalries...we have Kayle vs Morgana. Angel vs Fallen Angel. Literal symbols of Light vs Darkness. I just can't grasp any skin ideas that will make them stand out for an VS event, if Riot sticks with the theme of Light vs Dark, however if Riot goes off the rails with this match-up for an VS event, I would love to see what they would have in store. I feel like there are plenty more interesting rivalries then Kayle and Morgana though, so the possibility Riot uses these two are pretty low. (Possibility of happening: Low)

Lucian vs Thresh - Lucian vs Thresh has been a main stay of the League of Legends lore ever since Lucian was released. Thresh took everything Lucian held dearly (most importantly Lucian's wife) and now Lucian's been trying to murder Thresh ever since. This would be a good VS event because Riot has more flexibility with these two characters on what to do with their legendary VS skins. (Possibility of happening: Average)

JarvanIV vs Swain - The leaders of Demacia and Noxus duking it out in next year's VS event? Count me in. I can defiantly see Riot doing another Demacia vs Noxus ordeal with Jarven and Swain, but I just feel like they should do something else next year and hold off onto this? Don't get me wrong, I would love to see this, but maybe in 2020. Most of you probably feel the same way too. (Possibility of happening: Average)

Jayce vs Viktor - Piltover vs Zaun. I feel like this is such an underrated rivalry between these two regions. It's overshadowed by Demacia and Noxus, that most of us forget that Piltover and Zaun are bitter rivals. One that enforces restrictions on their technology and research, and one that does not. Anyways, I picked Jayce and Viktor to represent their respective region because of the history they have together (Viktor stealing Jayce's research in order to spark his GLORIOUS REVOLUTION and this caused Jayce to build his trademark hammer and break into Viktor's fortress to get it back.) However, any Piltover and Zaun champion would work just fine, and I just feel like Riot will toy with this idea within the next couple of months. ex: Caitlyn & Vi vs Jinx , Heimerdinger vs Ekko , etc. (Possibility of happening: High)

These are some few matchups that could be a possibility for next year's VS event. Let me know what you guys think!

Swain is no longer the sole leader of Noxus anymore so I don't think that would work. Other than that I would really like the idea of a Lucian v. Thresh event.

Hmm I kinda have a fully original idea just read this https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/skin-champion-concepts/Eal50gAL-nasu-010-concepts-gallery

If you support me feel free to comment any feedback is welcome as long as it's constructive.

Rengar vs Khazix ? Also Riot should add a event like Rengar vs Khazix , Ashe vs Lissandra vs Sejuani to Yasuo vs Riven and Garen vs Darius and all other VS events during the in game challenge like The Hunt and The Queen of Freijlord or something

Kassadin orKaisa vs Malzahar since malzahar did kidnap kai sa from her father. The vs event could be about kai sa finally actually meeting her father and getting revenge on malzahar. Or it could just be Kassadin vs Malzahar . Depending on who wins the event it updates their lores. Kass wins he finally retrieves his daughter from the void. Malzahar wins kai sa is sucked back in to the void for kassiden to never see again. Im not sure how the void works but I do know kai sa has been able to escape but gets dragged back in from the story in her lore. This even could also open up more on whats happening overall with the void and runeterra leading to some other event afterwards.

dark star AurelionSol vs galactic Nocturne

I think subverting their regular themes would be really interesting, but they don't have any beef in the lore, so here are some other viable rivalries (i don't think they'll go back to a noxus v. demacia again this year) :

Heimerdinger vs. Ziggs TwistedFate vs. Graves Teemo vs. Veigar

Some cool conceptual pairings : Kindred vs. Karthus or Sion Anivia vs. Brand Taric vs. Urgot

sorry to dissapoint you but this years VS event can't be lamer in my poinion. I was hoping for something epic, like you said, good vs evil, not cats VS dogs! I'm sorry RITO didn't make a more serius and dark VS event. Was hoping to see Rengo VS Kha'Zix
