What if... We had a skin line than changed the gender of the champion?
Now, I know this would probably never happen, because of the amount of effort they have to put into the skin... But...
I just imagine people like Braum being a girl, almost exactly the same but female... Or someone like shyvanna as a dude.
Idk why. It's just a neat idea to me.
While I'd love some official art, I don't think it'd be possible to actually implement it into the game where it'd make sense. As The Djinn stated, champions need to clearly still be themselves, which they wouldn't be if they were genderswapped. Remember, in Lol, mostly every female champion has an hourglass figure, while mostly every male champion is built like a castle. Sure, some don't fit that description, but it'd no matter serve to have the champion's silluette change. Ontop of that, if you want a genderswapped version of any champion, wouldn't you want the champion to actually look female or male respectively? How'd you do that with FX. Garen? Just give him a different head? Then what's the point? If they had to implement this into the game, they wouldn't be able to actually go all the way because their silluette would have to be the same. Garena (super thought through name) would still have to be super bulky, covering her entire physique in armor. Sir Price (Miss Fortune gender swap) would not have the strut in his step, and his entire physique would be vastly different from miss fortune unless you specifically make his very sassy. I don't think actual genderswap skins would work, but I'd definately love some art of it.
Definitely an interesting idea, but I suspect it would only work for a few champions.
A SUPER important part of League of Legends is clarity. It shouldn't ever be confusing as to what or who you're looking at in-game, so any gender-swapping skins would have to make sure that the character's shape, size, silhouette, and graphics are close enough that you can't mistake them for someone else.
This limits your available design space somewhat significantly, but I don't think it's a dealbreaker. Just something to keep in mind when thinking what champions this could work for. :)
i still dont get it.. whats this hate to females who are females and males who are males that you wanna gender swap them? like wtf... i dont want to play myself when i pick Kat and such a skin will pretty much mean that... and it will be more a minus than a plus XD
Not PC enough for them I think
they would probably have to be worth more than a legendary skin like 2500 rp since youd have to do new voice overs, and remodel the champions
