Please write in comments your own skin ideas.

tl;dr - just scroll to the poll and vote.

Best man Yorick - 975 RP / 1350 RP You need to activate your imagination now. So the idea behind this skin is that Yorick is the Best man at Ruined King's wedding with the Maiden. The skin is simple - Yorick is dressed in a suit with bow tie and his ghouls are dressed in little suits with bow-ties as well. But the best part comes when he summons the Maiden - she wears a wedding dress with veil and holds flowers in her hands and when Maiden creates her own ghouls, they are dressed in little pink dresses with a pink bow at the side of their heads.

I think that this skin is a nice hint into Yorick's bio, also it's fresh, creative and I guess not that hard to make compare to other skins.

Coach Ivern - 975 RP / 1350 RP Here again, you have to activate your imagination a bit. The idea behind this skin is that Ivern is this Wrestling trainer. Again, the skin looks are quite simple - Ivern wears coach cap, whistle on his neck, bottle of water in his hand and a wet towel on his neck and he wears a track suit, navy or in black and white strips. When he casts his Q, he throws his towel. The fun comes when he summons Daisy - when she launches, a boxing ring fence appears and she jumps over it, like if she was entering a boxing ring and she wears a wrestling mask, just like wrestler Mundo, Gnar and Voli. The idea is that Daisy is the champion and Ivern is her coach.


Darkin Varus - 1820 RP How would Varus look like, if he would reach his final form (like Aatrox) and kill the other two guys inside him ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°), the same way Rhaast kills Kayn when there is enough of red orbs and takes full control over the body. Of this question the skin idea was born. An ultimate version of Varus transformation, where he has new voice lines, animations and look above pants etc. I think it's worth of making it and having it as the legendary one.

Winged Hussar Yasuo - 975 RP / 1350 RP I think that this skin would fit him so much since he is a skilled swordsman, the theme fits so much that talking about it in depth is pointless. His katana could become a saber and all there really is to do is to attach some wings to his back, that's why I think that this could be a 975 RP skin.

Winged Hussar Gangplank - 975 RP / 1350 RP Same story. Give him a saber + this old style pistol with wings attached to his back and voila, we have a solid 975 RP skin.

Winged Hussar Kled - 975 RP / 1350 RP This one might be a little more expensive to make, but the idea behind it is that Kled fits because he has that axe thinge that could work as a hussar spear and he has a **mount **. I think that those three could be released as a pack.

Elementalist Diana - 1820 RP Since the Blood Moon somehow didn't manage to be Diana's legendary (they didn't even add a toggle mask) and Eclipse Leona IS legendary (Blood Moon is just an eclipse of Moon instead of Sun, therefore this would make sense), I think that the skin that would fit Diana's legendary most is the Elementalist skin line.

  • As Pulsefire Ez is a marksman same as Pulsefire Cati, the same way Elementalist Lux and Diana would be midlaners.
  • Lux and Diana are both mages and both of them are using light as their power.
  • Diana doesn't have a legendary skin yet.
  • Legendary Elementalist skin does not exist yet.
  • The overall theme fits very well into the character.

I truly can't come up with a character that would fit the theme more than Diana does. To diverse the skin from the Lux one, I would suggest to make Diana use "unconventional" elements, like madness, wrath, etc. Or something creative enough to diverse it a bit. Let's say two or three elements and you can chose only one, only once per game. I think that this would make a fine legendary.

Dark Star Ao Shi.... I mean Aurelion Sol... - 1820 RP Again, is there ANY other character in the league that would fit the theme better than the Aurelion does?? Like seriously a Star Dragon that creates stars, becomes corrupted by the dark star and now creates black holes. How cool is that?

Meanwhile J4 gets Dark Star... and obviously J4 deserved a skin, but seriously, form my point of view there were hundreds different themes that fit J4 much better.

But coming back to the Dark Star ASol, because he fits so well (not only the looks but also story wise and even his vice lines), I think that legitimately this would make a great Legendary one. There isn't really anything more to add to this.

God Fists Vi - 1820 RP Who can win a fists fight with Lee if not the fists goddess Vi? The idea behind the skin is already in the name of it. Vi similarly to Lee, achieved the god level. The looks of the skin are easy to imagine, if you are capable to combine the concept with the character model. One thing that would look cool in my opinion, would be making her bare hands visible to the player. So it's basically Vi, with that golden god power around her hands, and that golden power is what makes the big fists, you know this chi/god aura, but its semi-transparent and you can see her real hands inside. So when she attacks, she does it with the big fists that are made up of god aura and her real fists are inside it.

Mythical / Fairy Tail Udyr - 975 RP / 1350 RP / 1820 RP This skin seems to be quite simple to make and therefore it could be 975 RP, but the concept is wortth of being a legendary one, depending of how much work will be put into this. So the idea is simple - we replace current Udyr abilities, with different animals and in this case those are mythical creatures or ones from fairy tails.

  • So his Q would be a Griffin instead of a Tiger (claws and agile).
  • His W would be a Hydra instead of a turtle (hard to kill).
  • His E would be a Minotaur instead of a bear (strong and stuns).
  • His R would be a Dragon instead of a Phoenix (it does fire).
  • His passive would be a Unicorn instead of a monkey (agile, but also fun element).

Quite simple idea, but because it's hard to come up with Udyr skins, I think that it was worth of mentioning.

Kayn of Mount Targon - 1820 RP / 2775 RP I know that he already got a legendary, but because the idea is so good and Kayn is a very popular champion, I think that no one will cry. So the idea behind this is that all three forms of Kayn represent three (well actually two) inhabitants of Mt. Tragon, one form each.

So when we start the game with basic Kayn we play as a Kayn from Rakkor tribe, the one that Pantheon comes from. And he is dressed as one of the Rakkor warriors/Pantheon-like, the eye in his scythe is also a Pantheon emblem. When it comes to the evolutions...

... he can either chose to become a Solari moster (Rhaast), or a Lunari heretic (Shadow Assasin).

  • The Solari beast is the Darkin transformation, which fits in my opinion because Leona and Rhaast are tanky-like. In this form Rhaast is this burning Sun monster, completely consumed by sunpower. I imagine him as this black Darkin head/skull with magma/fire around and golden armor parts like Solari. A little bit like high noon Thresh, but more Sun-like rather than Devil-like. In this transformation the eye in the scythe becomes the Solari emblem.

  • The Lunar heretic is the Shadow Assasin transformation, which fits in my opinion as Diana and Blue Kayn are assasin-like. In this form Kayn is this cold assassin, with white hair like Diana and instead of Shadow he uses Moon light to create his 'clone' on W. I imagine him as this character that walks quietly with elegance and it might be even cool to cover his eyes with some rag band, to make this feeling that he doesn't need eyes to find you and kill you. In this form the eye in the scythe becomes the Lunari emblem.

Out of all skins ideas here, this one is the most advanced one I believe, not only in terms of creation but also in terms of imagination. When you think about this just imagine: Kayn - > Rakkor, kinda this raw warrior character. Rhaast -> Sun-like high noon Thresh, monstrous creature. Shadow Assassin -> Diana-like assassin that uses moon light instead of shadows.

I hope that you like this. Leave a comment about what you think about those and write down your own ideas. Who knows, maybe Riot will like one of those that you wrote down.

One I forgot to add:

Primal Rengar - 975 RP / 1350 RP / 1820 RP Again a vast skin idea, that would make a fine skin in every configuration. The main idea behind it is that Rengar is this primal animal/hunter. Like Saber tooth Rengar, how cool is that? This would fit him a lot imo.
