What's Your Favorite Alternate Reality of League?

With the recent release of the now complete Star Guardian skin lineup it'e gotten me thinking: there are quite a few alternate story arcs and universes that League has created just by basing them on skins, but what is everyone's personal favorite? By story arcs and universes I mean skins/ skin series that almost tell a different view on what League is, like Nasus' and Anivia's legendary where they actually become corrupt instead or the Battlecast/PROJECT series.

So just for curiosity, what's your favorite alternate story/universe that's based around a skin?

Whichever reality has Urfrider Corki in it, because Urf is both alive and has developed the power of flight.

Omega Squad Teemo personally.

It's just such a tragic; yet, interesting take on the character. While already subject to the demonic jokes, Omega Squad Teemo puts the character in a reality where his closest allies have all perished and that he remains "the last scout standing". Taking on the defense of Bandle City and then watching your fellow soldiers dying is extremely tragic and something many soldiers can relate to.

Even hearing him say "Hut, Two, Three, Four" or "my tears have all dried up" in such a gruff expression just shows that he's broken past his cheerful exterior and is doing all he can while he's alive. He's pretty much reached insanity, but in a way where he seems to even acknowledge it.

Hopefully Teemo's updated lore expands into why he wanted to protect all the yordles of Bandle City. I feel he has more potential than just the "lolSatan" jokes (though will admit his Little Demon skin is bloody brilliant).

PROJECT/Mecha/Battlecast dystopian alternate future....cause all of them are one Universe.

Second is Star Guardian one, cause it reminds me so much of Madoka Magica.

Omega Squad when Riot fleshes it out more. As it is, it's not much since all there is to it is Teemo , but there is a real opportunity for a post apocalyptic world of Runeterra where certain champs died, others went insane, while most have pretty much follow a "survival of the fittest" mentality. There is a lot of room to have champs from each nation with their own story of allies that they lost and the hardships that lead them to where they are now. What's more, I could see this and the battlecast skin line being combined if Riot wished to do so, where the machine army destroys the land with only a handful of survivors across the world, Omega Squad being the resistance forces.
