Sion's Pre-Death Skin, yeah?

So, the title says it all. Wouldn't it be great if we could get the pre-death Sion skin, don't know about you fellas but honestly, I'd like to see that. Concept art of Sion's pre-death head looks pretty neat, along with a massive sculpture that we had in "Reborn" that represents his living state. Anyways, would be cool if you guys could support this idea by commenting or something, just so we could get Riot's attention. Regardless, would love to hear other people's thoughts!

An update! Being a bit late with this but.. better late than never, right? We got a couple of answers from the Q&A that was held a few days ago!

Nothing got confirmed really, but it's nice knowing that they like it too.

Last "update" of sorts.

Well it saddens me that whole two years have passed since I've posted this and no concrete statement has been made. All I can do is hope that someone, somewhere at Riot's headquarters is still thinking of this and is nudging their co-workers with the idea. I haven't forgotten about it and I hope those of you that did support it, back then, haven't either. Hopefully we do get this skin sometime in the near future.

I seriously want nothing more. If only I could draw stuff (and model, animate, do particles, sound...).

I really like the idea. I've always been a huge fan of skins like this one. Pre-void kass was insta-buy for the same reason! Rito Pls!

Would be really cool,I actually like skins who are tied to the main story more than most regular skins.

Could be called legendary sion or sion the hero or something like that(yeah i am not that good with names xD)

Come to think of it, they'd also have to change the running/walking animation a bit, the way he runs and walks at the moment is because of his missing leg, I'd imagine a fully rested/healthy Sion to run differently.

In my mind I can't see much reason for this not to be done. The idea is great. The only reason I could think of is if the skin would become too indestinctive from his Barbarian Sion skin.

I think some new walking/running animations might be needed. Granted I have no experience in the craft, but I imagine maybe slight alterations to his rig. Maybe the skin could work with the normal voice and quotes, but I'd prefer something more fitting for the aesthetic.

If anything's certain it's that it's not impossible. Looks to me like it has enough interest from players too.

I was kind of assuming that's what his Barbarian skin would look like. Oh well.

Isn't the Barbarian Sion skin supposed to depict him before death???

Pre-death Sion would be such an amazing skin!

Have you guys thought about an ultimate sion skin where he starts off human and becomes a little more rotten every level? i thinked it'd be pretty awesome.
