The Earth Dragon should fight from the ground!

I think it'd be cool if the Earth Dragon had it's own unique animations where I fought on foot instead of on the wing. I know it's a magical dragon, and I'm not saying it wouldn't be able to fly, but I think it would be a cool thing if, because it's a beast who's domain is the ground and stones and soil, it fought without taking off! It's 'engagement' knockback could be an earthquake instead of a gust of wind under it's wings.

Maybe the Water Dragon too, but especially the Earth Dragon.

They should just go the extra mile and make them all different. The Earth Drake shouldn't even have wings. It should leap out from the sides. The Water Drake can summon a wave of water. The Fire Drake should have flame particles. The Air Drake should be the same. The Elder Dragon should just be special. (I don't care how.)

I especially like the idea of different spawn animations, such as Earth Drake snaking out of the ground, Water Drake swimming in from the river, etc. but the likelihood that Riot could agree whether or not that's a good idea for the game, let alone get it done on time, is quite low.

This is how you know a change is good. When people ask you to go further

I think this might be something to tackle for the future! It is possible that they did not have the resources to create completely new effects and change the model skeletons, but it sounds cool enough to work on while people are getting use to the change now

But that would require them to do actual work.

I think that the dragon should fly all over the map and breath fire instakilling minions and dealing damage to towers and champions in random spots on the map the. The team who kills him gets him on their team
