Looking at the new Dark Star skins, something hit me like a chunk of dark matter to the head.

Wouldn't this be a superb style for Veigar? It's almost perfect. I mean the skin is literally called "Dark Star" Thresh. Though that's more referring to a black hole rather than dark matter, the purple almost-but-not-quite-the-void look that clearly embodies the darkest corners of space just bring an exquisite image of our favorite little evil fur ball to mind. https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0q6G_XxeTQM/V09z484UgUI/AAAAAAAA7Ts/GnPN8h8czWg1Fi7vWNtAdk9Y68k_6Ue8ACLcB/s1600/2mIZy2P%2B-%2BImgur.gif I mean I don't know about you, but his black hole looks like a veigar Q. And isn't his overarching theme conquering a dark mage that uses dark matter to bend and shape the space around him? I mean I'm just saying, this general style would be a great template for a Veigar VU.

Edit: I think people are missing the last sentence of this post. This would be a good palette to work off of for a Veigar VISUAL UPDATE (VU). If he got a dark star skin that would literally be like when riot made Spirit Guard Udyr. WE NEED THAT MUTHAFUCKIN VU RIOT. GIVE OL VEIGY SOME LOVE!

PS: Feels good reminding people that Veigar needs a VU. I feel like people keep forgetting about him. I mean come on, he's one of the original 40. His model is older than than League itself.

I wonder how people are going to distinguish between Thresh's lantern and Syndra's balls.

Thresh GRAB THE LANTERN!

Syndra throws out a lot of balls

Jinx WHICH ONE?!?

Syndra Maniacal laughter

Well, it'd kind of be like Lunar Goddess Diana, which would be extremely redun- http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/b/b7/Diana_LunarGoddessSkin.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20160518015655 Oh wait.

Veigar already have this theme and also his base model isn't very good. He also have a legendary skin too. The only thing they could do is a vu for him based on this theme.

Honestly a 1350 like varus for veigar would have been sick. only thing is the color palette is very very close to his classic, but it still could have been awesome.

Veigar would look amazing with these kinds of animations. I also want his silhouette to feature the tips of his ears popping out of his hat :3 It would add to the cutesy yordle trying to be evil theme he has going.

Something that I find kind of interesting about the Dark Star skins is that they're actually more of a "what lurks in space" theme than a straight-up black hole theme. Dark star Varus has more of a galaxy theme to how he's designed, and a sort of "fire star into the team" vibe to his attacks, and hte new Rakan skin doesn't even seem to feature black holes. I think Dark Star refers more to the void of space, and what's out there, than just black holes.
