@Riot Please Make a New Zilean Skin

Jivewolf··21 votes·3,522 views

I am a 1 trick Zilean that managed to make it to diamond this season and I was wondering when a new Zilean skin is coming out? I understand not that many people enjoy Zilean as much as I do so I understand why Riot doesn't make Zilean skins often, however it's been like 5 years since a Zilean skin has been released (I believe it was Blood Moon Zilean). I own every single Zilean skin however I'm going to be honest I don't really think any of them are that cool (which is understandable since they are old skins). They're not bad but when I look at the new skins such as the Super Galactic Skins I can't help myself but to feel envious. I'm not asking to have a legendary or ultimate Zilean skin, or any sort of limited time gemstone skins, all I want is a new Zilean skin even if it comes out in a pack and it's a side skin (like star guardian Janna vs the main/big skin star guardian Jinx). I think these skin concepts would be what Riot considers reasonable/cool, themes.

Hextech Zilean (like hextech Galio theme) Firecracker Zilean (like firecracker Jinx theme) DJ Zilean (like Bard Bard or DJ Sona just not an ultimate skin. Just a music themed skin)

I'm no artist so I'm not going to try and make a splash art for the suggested themes I made because they would suck if I drew them just please take the idea of making a new Zilean skin (an epic one would be cool) in consideration Riot (It doesn't even have to be one of those recommendations.).

Bloodmoon was released in 2015... so it's been two years.

Not played enough. And I'm not saying this to be a jerk, it's pretty clear that Riot is moving towards giving fewer skins to less popular champs (Like, dear god have you seen how many skins Ekko's received since his release as apposed to Tahm?) and the hell of it is that I can't really argue that, why make something for a profit if you're not going to see a profit from it?

we all know riot bends the skins around popular champions but they could bring out a skin so people would play him more

Can you teach me how to play zilean, really it hard to farm with 1 hp left on that minion at turret.

If you go standard mid lane runes/masteries, let creeps deal some damage while tower hits creeps then finish the creep off. If your tower targets a creep with no minion agro, early levels auto the minion once while it has some health, let the tower hit the minion twice, then your second auto should finish off the melee minion. Caster minions are basically the same way you just auto them once before the tower hits them then finish the creep off with your second auto (only one tower shot is needed). Zileans auto attack projectile speed is kind of slow opposed to some other champs and his base ad sucks so I could understand how last hitting could be an issue. Dorans Shield isn't a bad option to get used to last hitting on Zilean but I'd usually recommend going either dorans ring or dark seal on him first item.

I couldn't agree more, I don't care for any one of Zilean's current skins. He deff could use some Riot luv.

Let's not continue to bump this thread and instead let it rest in peace. If we want to discuss Zilean's lack of recent skins and suggest new ideas, it is perfectly fine to simply create a new thread. Since this thread being bumped violates the Board Universal Rules, I'm applying the padlock.

If anyone has questions about the lock, please do not hesitate to come to the Board Moderation Discord or post on Discuss the Boards and we'll be happy to help.

Thanks
