I just realized something about Dark Star Thresh

Thresh's shtick is about collecting the souls of people and torturing them through the eternal imprisonment in his lantern. And Dark Star Thresh collects black holes it seems. And what is a black hole but the soul of a dead star?

Now we just need to fill out the Dark Star and Star Guardian skins lines to make a full 5v5.

Close, but not quite. Dark Star Thresh IS a black hole, who collects and traps stars.

It's because nothing can escape the pull of a black hole once beyond the event horizon, not even light. Similar to how no one can escape Thresh once you're in his pull.

Thresh "stars can scream..... isn't that strange?"

Actually he seems to consume planets as shown on his splash art...

But still a really cool way to see it.

When I first heard about the Dark Star skins, I was certain Grateful Dead skins were otw. Bummer. I wanted to see Thresh shake a bone!

Not the soul of a dead star?
