Bewitching skins for 2017?

October, and by extension Halloween, is right around the corner. Halloween is my favorite holiday, other than Christmas provided my full family can gather, and I absolutely love witches.

As a result, I was depressed when I learned that Bewitching Nidalee was limited and was gone forever more or less, for several years at that point. I learned about it just shortly before last year's Halloween when she was re-released! Along with Bewitching Morgana and others.

Bewitching skins are my absolute favorite line (Bewitching Morgana's splash art is amazing, but her ingame model is lacking... But then again I'm just not a fan of bell bottom dresses except in very limited situations)

I have been REALLY hoping all year that we'll get to see a Bewitching Ahri, Syndra, or Miss Fortune, with a "But I'd be happy with" a Janna, Lulu, or Soraka.

...

Only to see them ALL get Star Guardian skins, so close to Halloween. I feel like that pretty significantly lowers the chance of seeing any of them with a Bewitching skin. I'd love to see them all the same, but, you see what I mean?

Think there's any hope of seeing some new Bewitching skins? Possibly for Ahri (Who could literally be described as being Bewitching) or Miss Fortune (Who is perhaps the most notable character for wearing a big hat; and would fit extremely well in a witch hat instead.)

What would anyone else's suggestions be for Bewitching characters? All the characters I thought might do for a Bewitching skin all got a Star Guardian skin...

Perhaps Lux? Lux is a Star Guardian but she's the original and that wasn't recent, though Elementalist was somewhat recent.

That'd be quite the choice, Elementalist vs Bewitching. As much as I adore Witches, Lux's Magma skin is the best skin in the game imo. If I could select Magma Lux specifically similarly to how you select Chromas (As far as I'm aware, I don't own any), I would use that forever, but without the ability to select Magma from the start I think I'd go with a Bewitching lux instead.

Perhaps they could tie the Bewitching skins in with the Star Guardian skins, and Bewitching characters could perhaps be Ex-Guardians. Since Guardians are magical girls and "Fallen" magical girls are often witches, depending on your fiction.

2015 = zombie slayers 2016 = witches

Akali Camille Diana Elise Fiora Illaoi Irelia Janna Kalista Leona Lux Nami Poppy Quinn Rakan Sivir Sona Taliyah Xayah are all potential candidates who haven't received skins within the past ~5 months and could (conceivably) fit the Bewitching theme. (I included Rakan because, even though he's male, he would probably get the matching skin with Xayah.)

Annie Katarina Leblanc Lulu Vayne are possible Bewitching candidates too, though less so because they already have Harrowing/spooky-themed skins in their lineup.

I don't think any of the new Star Guardians will be in line for a Harrowing skin this year.

I honestly can't believe you want ANOTHER Ahri or MF skin, cmon. . . . .there ARE other female champions in this game if you really want more bewitching skins.

I would love to see some proper skins for champions for Halloween like: Mummified Cassiopeia Vampire Queen Elise Triffid Zyra

There is a chance that we don't even get Bewitching skins this year. (Honestly, I'm sorry to say it most likely is the case). In 2014 we had an underworld themed Harrowing with Underworld Wukong and Reaper Soraka, in 2015 we had the zombie survival theme with Slayer Jinx and Pantheon and Zombie Nunu. And of course last year we had the bewitching skins with Little Devil Teemo. I'm pretty sure we won't be seeing any this year but I personally do like your Bewitching Ahri idea. Even if her getting a new star guardian skin makes those odds next to impossible.

It was odd for me to see that they made a Bewitching Tristana because I had assumed that they were going to go for a "thicc girls" line of skins and Trist is more on the cute side instead of the sexy side. I don't really have any preferences....just a few guesses at who they'll make a skin for if they continue the line.

Do the rerun the old halloween themed skins?

I really want to pick up little devil teemo, reaper soraka and bewitching tristana.
