So About These "Slayer" Skins....

You say that you guys brainstorm about skins for champs & what fits the theme you wanted. Fair enough, Necromancer Azir didn't fit your zombie slayer theme for this Harrowing so he didn't happen. So why don't we have Slayer Lucian or Vayne , you know, zombie slayer skins for people that ACTUALLY HUNT UNDEAD!!! Wouldn't it be cool to see a punked out Lucian using 2 pistols and then pulling out a few Uzis for his ult or a Vayne looks like she just got done fighting of an army of the damned with nothing but her crossbow, cheap goggles, & raggedy clothing? Was it simply a case of Lucian just got a skin, that both champs are already technically zombie slayer, or that it just never came up in the discussions you guys had behind the scenes?

Edit: I'd really like a Red's opinion on if these 2 would even be viable for a Slayer skin, seeing as some people think the base lore and the skin would be too similar.

I personally don't like the slayer theme at all. the harrowing skins are suppose to be spooky or scary. not some heroic survivor of a zombie apocalypse.

Well it's not just about hunting zombies, it's hunting zombies DEAD RISING STYLE(in case you missed the reference). That means self-crafted weapons (Chainsaw-spears, molotovs, spiky boards) and this overall rough "survivor" style. It wouldn't fit Vayne or Lucian, I don't see them wearing ragged clothes and make-shift weapons, they're too cool for that.

Slayer Lucian & Vayne = Classic Lucian & Vayne

All skins don't always have to follow lores.
