Would be really nice if we get some skins this year, and i think that and would really fit the theme.

EDIT: I thought a little bit about the champions that i mentioned above who could fit the Blood moon theme, and i gotta say that imo kindred is actully fitting the role extremely. Well they are the defenition of death (i think) and riot could really make something interesting with theyr masks. So yeah they would be my go-to skin for that theme.

Kayn is too new for me to get it. I really hope that we get new Bloodmoon skins this year. My personal wishlist for the skin line would be: Camille Trundle Quinn

I could imagine that Quinn and Camille would fit the theme, but trundle is very hard fitting. I mean, he is a troll lol

The Bloodmoon is about Japanese demons and monsters (yokai). Ever heard of the Oni? https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/gods-goddess/images/a/a7/Oni.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20150501235151

Japanese demon most commonly pictured with a club.

Now it makes alot more sense. Really can imagine Trundle with the example you just posted.

While Kayn would be an obvious choice, and is an extremely popular champion, the fact is that he has three models worth of work. It’s probably going to be a lot of work to make any skin for him.

Hopefully the skin team finds it worth while.

Yeah i totally agree. Making a champ with 3 different kind of skins for only 1350rp is quite alot.

Agreed with your choices considering the fact that Blood Moon champs are usually somewhat connected with Ionia or they are just known around Runeterra (and Kindred obviously are). Plus, there's going to be an actual Blood Moon on 31st January so it would be a terrible waste for Riot, not to do anything about it.

Diana TwistedFate Zilean Talon I think if these are known enough in Ionia to qualify, then this criteria works for almost every champion IMO.

Don't think that this is really a factor here.

Diana got it because of moon in "Blood Moon". She's kinda connected to the concept of our natural satellite. Talon is a Noxian and Noxus was at war with Ionia, or rather they invaded it.

Unfortunately I have no idea what TF and Zilean are doing there. But hey, I said usually, not always.

Just wanted to point out: not having connections to Ionia shouldn't be a reason for anyone out there to think a champion doesn't fit the skin line.

People here in the boards tend to make up own rules for skin lines, even if there is no reason to. For example: People assumed that Omega Squad is a yordle only skin line. But Teemo was the only one having that skin and you can't make a rule if you just got one example.

Then people complained when Twitch got the skin without being a yordle.

So I just want to say: Since there are examples unrelated to Ionia already, it is probably the safest to assume that connections to Ionia is in no way related to their champion choice in that line.
