You realize a good chunk of what we have now was conceptualized years before anything similar was released right? This isn't news. They do it a lot. They think of something, try to get it to work, set the idea on the shelf until it fits thematically etc.

The one I posted there is from the fan concept section on the old forum tho.

That said, Riot DOES take community concepts from time to time, I think Riot by their rule can use any materials/ideas proposed on the concept creation section of the forum (makes sense, since you propose it in the concept creation forum hoping it gets used). I'm not saying the stole it or something.

I'm just point out the date, that Kayn may have been an idea from 5 years ago.

Character design wise I can't believe he even exists. Looks like a fan character in every way.

The Shackled Demon and the Shadow Reaper have nothing in common but the name "Kayn", and it isn't exactly an original name in the first place.

He is obviously Haseo from .hack GU. The supreme edginess was a dead givaway. Since Haseo is considered the edgelords of edgelords with a sythe.

Yeah, and even Jinx is jealous of Haseo's first form and its 52 belts.

Oh hey, I think I remember reading that from way back when.

Man, that takes me back, nowadays it takes a lot for me to just click a fan character thread, but I used to read them all the time XD
