Suggestion for the direction of Urgot's next skin

Brutusness·2/8/2018, 12:19:06 AM·40 votes·3,819 views

Urgot's VGU gave me an appreciation for him that I never had before. I love his characterization as a twisted, and yet intelligent, anarchist leader who has become one of the major players in the Piltover/Zaun storyline. Like Swain, he is a visionary, even if both have very different views on the ideal goal for Noxus.

So the point of this is that Urgot's skins, while all very nicely adapted for his VGU, don't really get across the kind of philosophical movement leader that Urgot has been characterized as now. His skins are all movie monsters: an axe murderer, a kaiju, and a killer robot. While they're quality skins, I feel Urgot needs a skin that keeps the brutal and yet refined aesthetic (Urgot may just wear half a coat but it's a damn classy coat).

An example would be Gangster Urgot https://78.media.tumblr.com/04e97e19ff9c51f76d13bb7090d09f85/tumblr_oyczo8pXMi1rzi3oko1_1280.png

Just a suggestion from a big Urgot fan.

Yes, give me Mafia Urgot.

I need to show my enemies that despite my hideous appearance I am still an intellectual.

Whatever they do for him next, it needs to be something dramatic. I remember back in his champion insights post where they mentioned at one point he had a really fancy coat, his taunt was a minute long monologue, and during his ult he started playing an organ. I need this in my life, and every day I cry because they didn’t keep those ideas around. Please Riot, return drama Urgot.

Business urgot in line with the mundo skin. Q would fire briefcases and his flip could trail paperwork. his arm could be a giant stapler and his ult could look like a mouse being shot out and the grind could be a paper shredder.

I still want shogun Urgot. He'd be sitting in a palanquin and have fireworks for his guns.

Does anyone remember Wild Wild West? The western with Will Smith? It had this villain that was both ridiculous and kind of cool: he was this old southern gentleman-type in a wheel chair but later you find out he's obsessed with spiders and has this steam punk wheel chair with spider legs and guns. Seems like it'd be a cool idea for some kind of "Steam Punk" or "High Noon" Urgot skin.

Man, that movie was my first PG13 movie. Time flies.

That's one thing I really love about Urgots character as a whole. He is heavily augmented, but not to the point where you could question the humanity in his character, like Camille for example who looks human but the replacement of her heart changed her a lot, so thus he looks really grotesque, to the point of almost not looking human anymore. But if you listen to his voice over, you quickly notice that he is intelligent and cunning. He is almost as a much a leader as Swain is, though Urgot fell to the very bottom when he was sent to Zaun and was tortured after learning everything he fought for was a lie. Interestingly both Swain and Urgot believe that strenght is important, but both have very different views of it. Swain wants strenght through unity and expansion, Urgot wants strenght through suffering and chaos, all of this was heavily influenced by what both of them have gone through. Swain dethroned Darkwill and gained horrific visions through the demon of secrets, while Urgot was betrayed by Swain so he could claim the throne and tortured and mindbroken as a slave, getting to the verge of just laughing at the leader of the prison while he was supposed to be killed.

Anyway, back to the skin. I would absolutely love a skin that shows a more human side to Urgot, at least visually. We've seen in his insights that Riot quite enjoyed the idea of Urgot as a half human/half machine abomination, while still dressing like a normal human. One of the concept arts showcased that, actually. Some of this we also already see in his dance with the top hat, but I think a formal skin, like your example for a Gangster/Mafia Urgot would very much suffice.

Dark Star Urgot, Mafia Urgot, Elderwood Urgot... All viable choices.

that's some really good and attractive artwork! I myself have a thing for the sexy guy, though i was thinking more on the lines of a monster skin? maybe giant mutated spider urgot? it can be called Urgot of izalith, or chaos witch urgot.

I would love a new urgot skin. I think the idea of a strong yet disciplined urgot would be fantastic. Like a symbol of strength where you can just feel it flowing from him but you can also see him as a leader.

His next skin should be Urbane. Akin to the gentleman line, but drawing notes from Marlon Brando in the Godfather for his outfit, and referencing Bane's mask from the Dark Knight Rises. A black and white suit with a red rose in the breast pocket - or perhaps a small bloodstain evocative of a rose - with a scarf reminiscent of fur lining.

Could've done darkstar urgot, but no... they had to give it to Jarvan of all people...

Dark Star Urgot fits so well Im honestly shocked it wasnt made already.

If its a seasonal skin, then Snowman Urgot was hinted for almost 8 years already.
