The Final Two... Marauder and Warden skin ideas

King Gromp·10/9/2015, 1:43:05 PM·11 votes·3,194 views

So, after giving it a lot of thought (and trying to figure out who looks best) I narrowed it down to two final MIDLANE oriented champions to receive their Warden/Marauder skins... And here they are.

Marauder King Twisted Fate and Warden Lord Jayce

Some alternatives: Marauder King: Ryze Swain Talon (Queen) Diana Brand Syndra Azir

Warden Lord: Ryze Riven Malzahar Orianna Lux Bard

Thoughts?

Edit: Thanks to Justicar Reborn, NaZomLord, Xela Syab, and Kaltenashes for suggestions.

I think it would be neat if Kindred got them, haha. Wolf could be Marauder and Lamb could be Warden, or vice versa.

As a Diana main, I would buy the shit out of Marauder Queen Diana. I would buy the absolute living shit out of it.

Both warden and marauder teams seem to be built differently.

Marauded focuses heavily on single target damage, slowing the enemy so they can't reach the back line, locking down single targets and diving the enemy backline. I'd feel an assassin would work best for the Marauder team, talon seems most suitable with his whole single target; slow focused; stabby stabby playstyle.

Warden on the other hand has a bigger focus on poke, team based utility and aoe crowd control. They have solid peel for the backline with nautilus and karma while still retaining frontline capabilities with jax. They use magic damage far more than the marauders so a mage is definitely the best fit for the thematic. Xerath could work quite nicely with his solid aoe capabilites, and he'd look pretty cool with warden armour around a white energy core.

With regards to the names, I think something more unique than marauder king and warden lord could work cool, perhaps Inquisitor (the original name for the wardens) Xerath and Ravager Talon.

Marauder Talon would be ok, but he needs a 1350 skin this time around.

Marauder Azir would be freaking awesome. Veigar could also work.

Warden Orianna or Lux could be cool. Warden Galio would be perfect.

For the last two skins I would love a marauder skin for Talon and a warden skin for Diana. I feel the skins would work well with these champs. Talon is the definition of dark and merciless. A marauder skin that plays off the fact that he is not a armored tank, but a quiet merciless killer that seeks his own personal gain would be awesome. Talon hasn't received a descent new skin in a while. The SSW skin was okay, but I didn't feel unique and it is a legacy skin which means it won't be on the store for a while.

Diana would work perfectly with the warden skin. She is a warrior of the moon. She thinks of herself as above the law. Her abilities would feel adequate with the skin since her abilities have light colors and embody the idea of Diana being a transcendent warrior. Diana only has two other skins and only one of them feels adequate with her personality and mannerisms. A warden skin would perfectly capture what Diana is as a champ.

As for your opinion, I think Jayce is a interesting idea for a warden skin, but my problem with it is that he is not a mid laner. He is more of a top laner. He is also very popular which means Riot will shower him with awesome skins in the future. I wouldn't be mad if they gave him the last warden skin though. I feel that a warden skin would fit him well.

As for Twisted Fate, he already has a lot of skins. Giving him a warden skin would be somewhat pointless since he has other skins that are way more popular. His personality and mannerisms don't seem to resemble that of a vicious marauder. Twisted Fate would make an interesting warden though. If Riot decides to continue to the wardens and marauders skins (which they should), I would like to see Jayce and Twisted Fate get a skin, but I feel the priority for this possible last skin to be for champs that have been somewhat neglected in the skins category.
