Am I the only one who thinks Battlecast Xerath should be renamed?

As you can see there, even riot doesn't count it as a Battlecast theme skin. But I dont judge them. That's because of it doesn't look like Battlecast skin, it's not robotic, it doesn't fit to champion theme. Why would Viktor work on Xerath? Is it like he has power to overwhelm him? I know, I know. Skin themes are not suppose to fit champion theme but it's really different than the others.

Artillery Xerath, Siege Cannon Xerath, Cannon Barrage Xerath would be cooler and fit to theme better. I just think about them for 5 minutes or less. I think you guys find a better name. Or whatever. Everything expect Battlecast would fit better.

Yea.. I'm feeling that Battlecast Xerath shouldn't be a thing.

Maybe he could recolored to fit an apocalypse theme like Brand? It would be consistent with his story and already comparable in design to Apocalyptic Brand's accessorized outfit.

#Apocalypse Xerath edit: well shit.. he already has Scorched Earth Xerath.

Who says that BC Xerath is the original Xerath? it could be a copy created by Viktor... Just like the Yordles created a giant copy of Aatrox

He is supposed to be the First Battlecast ever created by Viktor according to the blueprints of Chogath... of course that he is a bit different to the "new Battlecasts"

Its probably because Battlecase xerath wasn't made with a greater series of skins in mind.The whole "robotic monstrosities" came only with battlecast cho'gath&urgot.

However after Xeraths TR,he looks quite....uhm...battlecasty,so I guess it is ok.

BC Xerath isn't even mentioned in Riot's PROJECT blog.

Reworking the skin would be far better. Take the skin from the shop, rework it to 1820 quality and give it for free to anyone who had it (remove it before you announce it of course).

Battle cast Xerath was the first battlecast skin. it's what helped lead to the definition of the Battlecast skin line.
