Warring Kingdoms Skins used to be cool.

Why did League of Legends have something cool at one time, i.e. skins based on Three Kingdoms Era Generals, and now they just base the newer skins off nothing. and they suck?

Prince Jarvan 4 has a LuBu Skin, badass.

Tryndamere has a Guan Yu skin, Badass.

Xin Zhao has a Zhao Yun skin, BAD ASS!

While Garen, Vi, Pantheon, Nidalee, and Azir all have Warring Kingdoms skins that are not following this line of thought and they are garbage skins I will never use. Why do this? Why have something cool, then stop doing it?

I don't get it, another thing to add in the League of Legends bad decision making category.

Qiyana yes!

Yasuo Yes!

Leona Yes!

Olaf, no, How about Zhang Liao who has 2 axes, or Pang Dei 2 axes in DW 5 and 7.

Tryn, already has Guan Yu, but Guan ping would work too. Darius Might be good for Dian Wei one Axe.

Varus Yes!

Sun Wukong yes, or even from warriors Orochi too.

All great ideas because they make sense with the theme, thanks!

Well, that is a highly subjective matter, having a skin based on an already existing thing doesnt make it "better" necessarily

I appreciate when they make a cool skin referencing another thing, but i, for one, prefer when they just do their own thing, because that gives them a lot more freedom at the design departament

Ohh and btw, Pantheon doesnt have a Warring Kingdoms skin c:

Glaive Warrior isn't a warring kingdoms skin but it is. Its Chinese looking.

Not at all, even in the splash art you can see a heavy northern style in it, and nothing from the model itself looks chinese, maybe the helmet, but thats a big maybe
