Can we expect some skins this year that actually resemble something halloween?

instead of the typical exceedingly lame "it's dark and spooky bleh" skins we get around october now?

i'm speaking more along the lines of headless hecarim, zombie brand, haunting nocturne, or bewitching nidalee. haunted zyra was fine i guess, but officer vi, underworld wukong and ravenborn leblanc was pretty saddening

it seems like 2012 was the last of the traditional and fun holiday skin releases. since then, there's only been "winter" skins which is getting really tiresome and honestly feels like a lazy cop-out void of any creativity or fun. it's like making skins pertaining to holidays isnt PC enough for riot or something.

there are so many creative concepts and ideas they could use or get inspiration from but they just keep making these bland, tiresome holiday skins, when they should be lively and colorful.

http://i.ytimg.com/vi/aBI_ZWU-Rg0/maxresdefault.jpg Although it was late it was a Halloween skin. Also we technically don't have Halloween in League of Legend we have the Harrowing which all the skin you name that are not necessarily Halloween kind of fit. Now i'm not saying we shouldn't have more Lollipoppy but I don't think it fair that you say all these other skin are uncreative/bland because they are great in my opinion, not Halloween but still great.

You have to keep in mind that League is so large now that they have to cater to essentially the world, not just the USA. And unfortunately it's easier to make more 'bland' skins that will be accepted by all demographics than it is to make specific themed ones that may not be.

Notice how there wasn't really Christmas skins last year, instead just "Snowdown". It's the same thing with "Harrowing" instead of Halloween.

I think they're just staying away from actual holiday themed and doing a more season themed. So winter for snowdown and 3spooky5me for Harrowing.

Almost positive we'll see a return of underworld TF which a lot of people including myself are waiting for.

Yes! I've been waiting for a new skin for my main, Nami. I would love a masquerade theme. I think Nami and Lucian would be killer.

How didn't you mention Spooky Gangplank, Pumpkinhead fiddlesticks or haunted maokai.

Do you hate me? Is that it? You hate me and my 3 mains you somehow forgot about?

For real though I do want some more haunted skins, though my goal this year is to buy haunted Maokai

I thought Maokai and Zyra had great ones but I think they dropped the ball with Wukong and Soraka last year.
