Next Lunar Revel / Brainstorming for the year of the rat

I know, it is still quite some time til the next Chinese New Year, but skins take time to get developed and so I thought we could already brainstorm here which champions could get the skins in the next year, representing the rat zodiac!

Firecracker Twitch Okay, this one is an obvious no brainer. It is the year of the rat and there is no other champion who could represent it as well as Twitch in this game. No chance he will not get the skin in that year. I think the firecracker skin line would suit him best.

Firecracker Ziggs I think he could work well in the skin line, could imagine this guy in traditional Chinese clothes. And he already pretty much is about firecrackers with all his explosives. This furry little guy also can kinda remind you of a rat, I guess?

Jade Doll Orianna Rats in the Chinese zodiac are supposed to be tricky, sneaky sneaks. I could imagine the story focusing on Twitch breaking into an old palace and trying to steal some treasures. One of these could maybe be Orianna herself, a magic infused doll made out of pure Jade. Just think she would look really cute in Chinese clothes!

But these are just my ideas. I would love to read what other people think who should get the Lunar Revel skins next year.

I like the concept of the Orianna skin, but I'm opposed to it. She's got a lot of seasonal skins, and she really needs more quality skins that aren't locked away behind a limited window. Her only skin that's even remotely quality that's always available is Dark Star, because Gothic, Sewn Chaos, Bladecraft, ~~and TPA ~~are all just pitiful.

Yeah, Twitch will be there if he's not then it's just all wrong.

This coming Lunar Revel is a Warring Kingdoms year, but Twitch being in the mix could kind of mess it up unless they make him a fantastical villain in the same universe...

OMG yes. I would buy the shit out of that.

Firecracker Ahri, Lux and Yasuo sound plausible, no?

For real though, besides the obvious Twitch, what about Shaco throwing some explosives and suprise fireworks.

I'd be fun if Riot turns it into a special vs event, releasing 2 skin lines themed after rat and cat vsing each other (if you don't know the story about the zodiac, cat was initially set to win the race with rat and ox as early finishers, but rat betrayed the cat and the latter ended up missing out on the ranking entirely; and thus cats hate and hunt rats for the rest of eternity). The event can also involve the rest of the zodiacs in some way.

It probably won't happen, but come on Rito, you only have this 1 shot every 12 years.
