Mordekaiser Ultimate Skin

So.. this is just an idea, obviously, but it's one that I think would be FANTASTIC if Riot Games and Blizzard could cooperate. As a throwback to when a lot of League's skins were references (Toxic Mundo = Hulk, King Rammus = Bowser, etc), obviously Mordekaiser was a HUGE reference to the Lich King. His ultimate curses the opponent and resurrects them as a minion under his control if they die (like Frostmourne harvests the soul), a great and powerful warrior clad in full heavy metal armor, a deep booming voice...

My suggestion is Lich King Mordekaiser. You put him in the Lich King armor, you give him Frostmourne, you revamp his animations so he's attacking as if using a sword and not a giant mace. You give him really deep, harrowing quotes about ice and possibly Freljord instead of the Shivering Isles. You've done more for a champion's animations for less cost - Look at Talon's Sword skin, he swings and stabs with his sword instead of jerking his arm around. I think it'd be an awesome addition to League of Legends, and a great sign of cooperation between game studios, if Blizzard agrees. Perhaps a trade between them, Genji gets a Yasuo skin, or Reinhardt gets a Braum skin, in exchange. I really feel like Mordekaiser deserves something this awesome to make up for all the... well, neglect and bugs and garbage he's gotten over the years.

And unfortunately, it's unlikely. Since there is an almost 100% chance that he will see his much needed VGU in 2019 and thus probably won't even have most of the same abilities.

So no new skins for him, anyway, till that happens.

The lich king and Morde are both inspired from the D&D Death knight archetype similar to Lord Soth from Dragon lance. Who was inspired by Sauron the Deciever from Lord of the Rings.

Frankly Morde deserves an ultimate skin but not like this.

There's a 100% chance Blizzard games will NEVER allow Riot games access to their IP. They had their opportunity to purchase DOTA while it was still a mod for Warcraft 3, but they let it slip through their fingers - that's when DOTA creators started Riot Games and reinvented their mod as League of Legends. They again lost the opportunity when Valve purchased the rights to make DOTA 2 instead of them, and here they are, many years later, launching Heroes of the Storm well after League and DOTA 2 have established themselves as MOBA powerhouses.

I wouldn't get my hopes up to see an Ultimate skin for any champion who hasn't maintained a high playrate for most of Leagues' history.

Udyr is probably the only one to get away with it since he was the second and Riot was still experimenting with the viability of these skins and price point etc.

The next Ultimate skin will likely be for a popular assassin since none of them have any.

Zed My #1 candidate as he is in the top percentile with a massive playrate #18 at the moment AND he has no legendaries meaning there are some hungry Zed mains out there to feed.

Otherwise I would put my money on: Rengar Ekko or Fizz

Failing that It's gonna be a skirmisher like: Jax Fiora orMasterYi

Of course failing that Riot could probably just say f it an make another Ahri skin and sell a million of em.

Threads like this make me sad thinking there are people actually holding out for a Mordekaiser or even an Ivern (god bless your heart if you think that will EVER happen you are to innocent for this world). Just don't get your hopes up too much bud.
