Dragon Trainer Rumble
So the other night, a discussion about skins with a friend came about during a long bout of matches. I had just traded Heimerdinger to someone, and I pointed out that I love his Dragon Trainer skin (specificlly I love the /dance). I said "another Dragon Trainer skin would be nice" (even if Riot just released one for Heimer). To which my friend quipped "did ya ever notice that only Yordles are Dragon Trainers so far?" Just then I had the idea - Dragon Trainer Rumble.
Dragon Trainer skins have one thing in common mechanically, that being the yordles have weapons or gimmicks about them that can be switched with dragons. That's where Dragon Trainer Rumble comes in. Rumble- as most people know -rides a mech. This can be switched with a dragon that he rides. Another thing is that normally his mech can spray out a fan of fire, and as dragons commonly do, the dragon could also breath out a fan of flames. As for the mech's shield, the dragon could create a barrier of fire (kind of like Annie does) or it could use it's wings to cover Rumble and itself. The trickiest part was considering what the dragon could do in place of the mech's electrified harpoons, and then it hit me - sticky spit. The harpoons do slow down enemies, so why not viscous spit (Pug'maw does it). The ultimate could easily be the aforementioned spit combined with flames much akin to napalm. Lastly, the heat system that Rumble's mech has could still be used - who's to say that the dragon doesn't overheat from using its abilities too frequently? This could result in cuteness that all Dragon Trainer skins have. My idea for this is to simply have the dragon pant with its tongue hanging out. As for jokes, taunts, and dancing, I have no idea what Rumble and his pal could do - I leave that in the capable hands of the voice actors, folly artists, and writers. One last thing: if Dragon Trainer Rumble were defeated, perhaps the dragon could fall over exhausted, trapping poor Rumble partially underneath the bulk of his scaly buddy?
Hopefully this sounds like a worthwhile skin. I know I'd buy it and enjoy it! ^_^
