Ionian Lunar Revel Skins

I was thinking Riot could centre the next batch of Lunar Revel skins around Ionian champs? I like the ideas they have for the skins released during Lunar New Year but maybe they could release skins for champions such as Irelia or Syndra ? It would be nice to actually have skins released for a very Chinese-inspired event on champions from the region in Valoran that represents Asia (and thus, China included). The only people who have Lunar Revel skins and are from Ionia are Sona and LeeSin. MonkeyKing to an extent is based on the Monkey King from Chinese mythology, and XinZhao at least has a very Chinese name. I mean sure they have skins based off of other historical people like Guan Yu for Warring Kingdoms Tryndamere , but he's still not an Ionian champion.

I was thinking it'd be pretty cool to base a new Syndra skin off historical female emperors such as Wu ZeTian. She certainly fits the role of an Empress. Maybe the idea could be teamed up with a new Irelia skin based off designs of historical generals and war heroes, considering Irelia's lore (ignoring future retcon) of defending Ionia until her last breath.
