STAR GUARDIAN SUGGESTIONS 2018 - TOP LANER / TANKS / JUNGLERS?

First of all i want to say Star Guardians are probably Riot's best skin franchise, to me at least. They've done an amazing job and these threads are only created to help them in furthering their excellence with this franchise!

So, My main plea is that if Riot can provide us more tanks, top lane and jungle potential as Star Guardians, I think a lot of people would be really happy.

Before i give my list, i just want to say that I don't think we really need any more male star guardians. Ezreal being the only male in the group is fine, because it actually fits his character. The only two exceptions i'd even think about is (Taric), and (Rakan) ONLY if (Xayah) gets one. Historically, they have to have the same skins - but i don't see that happening honestly.

Now, here is a list of potential candidates.

(Irelia) - as the leader, color pink? (There's a link to the design concept attached created by xxsmell from twitter, found this amazing idea concept by Elinz's thread "Star Guardian Irelia (Skin Concept!)")
(Vi) - color blue?
(Caitlyn) - color red ?
(Taliyah)) - color green ?
(Leona) - color purple?

All of these are very good selections to fit as Star Guardians due to their personalities, strong will, and the roles that Star Guardians actually need currently for 2018. (We have one current tank / top laner and that's (Poppy), so it's hard to make full star guardian teams).

Fan favorites and Runner up's are:

(Sona) - Everyone wants Sona, hell even i do! But is she really needed? We have 3 supports already. The only reason (Leona) gets in the list is because she's a tank support, something kind of new.
(Zoe) - We already have 3 potential mid lane Star Guardians, but I mean come on lol, Zoe has star guardian all over her face and personality.
(Nidalee) - Though she is a squishy jungler, she's still a jungler and her personality may fit in well as a Star Guardian.

But let me know your thoughts and concerns, as i do think my list can be better fine tuned.

In terms of male SG's. I think SG Jayce could work. But they'd have to be creative.

i call for

Irelia being the pink leader: since we always have loners as the leaders

Sona as the green one: supports with interesting traits get the green, since they have a special connection with the first star (one of them makes no sense talking and the other is literaly a star child, so the mute one makes sense)

Kaisa as the purple one: usually champs with some sort of trauma or connection to dark forces, so, kaisa fits that role perfectly

Xayah being the red one: usually adcs get the roll because of the violent nature, so yeah

Rakan being the blue one: hes also a support but we cant leave xayah alone, also being the blue one means doing some protecting and stuff

I actually had an interesting idea for basically the first generation of Star Guardians, with their leader being the First Star itself. I thought of the team being similar to this. Mordekaiser : Legendary Skin, Leader of the First Generation of Star Guardians and the First Star. Long ago, he was forced to bind himself to a twisted star, and was forced into stasis millennia ago. (Royal Purple/Gold color scheme.) Swain : The right hand of the First Star, later forced to put his comrade into stasis and went into hiding, spreading the light to the horizon for the future Star Guardians. His current position is unknown. (Orange/Silver color scheme.) Ornn : A member of a near-extinct race, Ornn served as a smith of powerful star-energy weapons, including the Lightmaker, the mace of the First Star, as well as several other weapons of the Star Guardians of yore. It is said a runt star dragon assisted the legendary being in forging his legendary works.(Blue color scheme.) Ivern : In exchange for being physically weak, the Guardian known as Ivern was known for the power of his mind, and his connection to life, but most of all for his kind demeanor. But, if roused, his will of steel and his planetoid titan friend known as Cyra(Daisy) are a force to be reckoned with. (Green-bronze color scheme.) Urgot : Urgot's body was maimed in a fight against a powerful creature of darkness, but he refused to let that end the battles he fought for the universe. He requested a new body to be made, asking help from his comrade Ornn to forge him a new body. It is said he guards the body of his battle leader, the First Star, waiting for him to awaken and protect the universe once more. (A largely white and gold color scheme, resembling a neutron star.)

They only said no to Magma Chamber in meme article, so Urgot the Star Guardian all the way.

Leona - Leader Ashe Taliyah Irelia Riven

Bonus points if Irelia and Riven have a dynamic similar to Sailor Uranus and Neptune.

Velivolo4/20/2018, 8:10:15 PM2 votes

Downvote because "we don't need more male SG's".

Upvote Ekko, Jayce, Taric...

Also so I'm not a total pill, Kayle might be a good SG.

Leblanc Leblanc is one of my favourite Champs in lol and i think she would have a nice purple star guardian skin such like syndra Karma i could imagine that Karma is the yellow leader with a floating pet she Uses for her q katarina could really use a juicy red legendary skin Morgana its time 2 give her a skin with a smaller skirt so that she can fly better lol Urgot lets make another male star guardian lol If i had 2 choose which of them should be the leader then i would choose karma [sg-ahri-2]

I am a HARD NO to the Leona/Diana Star Guardian bandwagon. I think the skin line doesn't suit them AT ALL. I don't think they fit it, and I think it would only be pandering if they added them. The line tends to be for more youthful characters, and I find Diana and Leona to be much older than the people in the roster already. I hold that same belief about Nidalee as well. Irelia and Riven are on the edge, so I could see them going one way or the other here.

Ideally, I think Taliyah and Zoe are the best candidates, though we know Zoe is getting a skin already this year (Pool Party). Akali has potential too, after her rework, as well as Kai'Sa. I will however be extremely upset if Taric doesn't get a skin in this lineup, as he desperately needs to be a part of this universe.

P.S. I am also against Rakan and Xayah always getting duo skins. I think it detracts from their individuality if we only consider them as a pair. Rakan should be able to get skins that Xayah doesn't get, and vice versa. They are separate champions, so we should consider them as such.

I think another full star guardian team would just be lacking in general, though if they do make a third team I think Irelia would be the best candidate for a leader with Kai'sai and Leona at least. I still believe we need some villains working against the star guardians, my thoughts.

Evelynn <--- Her personality fits perfectly as it is, finds pleasure/enjoyment in the pain of others. Shaco <--- Harlequin type character. Psychological methods, annoying tricks and antics. Jhin <--- Everything is done for a purpose, it's about proving a point over simply winning.

TwistedFate <-- independent character, unknown motivates, lends a hand as needed but his goals are priority over others.

Not Star Guardians but a dark-themed enemy squad

Katarina as the Pink Leader Talon Talon as the Red second-in-command Morgana Morgana as the Purple mage Sejuani Sejuani and Bristle as the Blue muscle Taliyah Taliyah as the Green 'not quite as evil' newbie

With bonus

Kayle Kayle as a White loner who might or might not be an ally to the Star Guardians
