Neon Strike Vi - Should It get a promotion to become Super Galaxy Vi???

Here are my thoughts- When the next eventual line of Super Galaxy skins come out, also include Vi. For her skin, make a small adjustment though:

At the start of the game, like Kayn choosing his form, give Neon Strike (now Super Galaxy) Vi a choice. Two icons, one of her shades, and the other of a Super Galaxy helmet.

If the shades icon is chosen, the skin stays in Neon Strike Mode.

If the helmet icon is chosen, the skin transforms. A Super Galaxy helmet and shoulder-pads materialize from nano-tech around her, her voice effects change to sound like she has a space helmet on, and a big ass drill materializes on the end of each gauntlet. Doing taunt in Super Galaxy Mode makes the visor of the helmet slide up, disabling the helmet-y voice effect. In Super Galaxy mode, drills spin while E is active, Q is charging, and a loud drill noise happens when Vi's ultimate collides with an enemy and is about to drill them into the ground.

After choosing a mode, there is no going back. After 1:30 (when minions spawn), the option to choose forms disappears and sticks with Neon Strike mode.

This means that minimal work can be done for Neon Strike to serve a new concept while staying true to what fans have known for years. If I'm being pedantic, I think they should have done the same with Lancer Blitz instead of separating them, but that's not important right now anyways.

THOUGHTS?!

The super galaxy skin line is about pilots and their mecha.

Fizz Fizz and his shark mecha Elise Elise and her spider mecha Kindred Lamb and her wolf mecha Annie Annie and her bear mecha Shyvana Shyvana and her dragon mecha Nidalee Nidalee and her cougar mecha Rumble Rumble and his Tristy mecha Gnar Gnar and his Mega mecha

Vi is lacking a corresponding mecha to be part of that skin line. I am not against reworking the Neon Strike skin into another skin theme, but super galaxy doesn't make sense for me thematically.

Great idea! Reminds me of resistance caitlyn. With the new awesome illaoi skin she should get an update. But vi's skin already looks very similar to super galaxy. +1
