Tides move with the moon, so yes.

Caitlyn might be a beautiful woman, but she's nowhere near as hand -some as Vi.

How many are left now?

Someone should keep a post of all the major memes, and then edit it every time they kill one.

RalanrJan 23, 20173 votes

I can't think of many beyond Predeath Sion, Noxian Drill sergeant support, and Urgot.

Oh. And Mordekaiser.

SharjoJan 23, 20172 votes

Kled is the Noxian drill sergant.

BladeSingularityJan 23, 20171 votes

BUT HE'S NOT SUPPORT!

SharjoJan 23, 201721 votes

That's because you're not trying hard enough!

BladeSingularityJan 24, 20172 votes

... Can you imagine all the special quotes Kled could have for supporting?

Actually, don't. I'm a bit worried about what he'd say.

RalanrJan 23, 20173 votes

Kled is not a support. He needs no one else but Skaarl.

SharjoJan 23, 20174 votes

That makes him a perfect support; kill the enemy duo over and over; screw your adc.

Let 'em see how a real Noxian takes charge of a 2v1 situation!

heshould have gotten it instead of diana or talon, its an ionian-shadow isles things. the fuckers at riot are highly dense

Eternal791Jan 23, 20175 votes

Get rid of Talon or Twisted Fate and give Yorick the skin. He needs it more, though Diana makes sense since she worships the moon.

Heck, they could have done Yorick and Warwick instead of those two.

RavenhaleJan 23, 20179 votes

To be fair, Talon does need a skin. Maybe not this particular line, but he did need one. If you dismiss his SSW Esport skin, he would be #2 right after Yorick.

But yea... TF feels really out of place here. Only would have made sense if they had released a Blood Moon Evelynn alongside him. ^_^

Blue Moon WolfJan 23, 20171 votes

On the one hand it sucks to not see Blood moon Yorick. On the other hand that leaves him free for another cool skin this year. Arcade Yorick? Pool party Yorick? Santa Yorick? VICTORIOUS YORICK?! The sky's the limit till they give him a skin this year.

RavenhaleJan 23, 20172 votes

Optional Boss Yorick. ^_^

Google Crazy Cat Lady Yorick.

Ladies, Gentlemen and Diana Mains, this is your captain speaking, our flight to Hype City will begin soon™. Please make sure you turn off any electronic devices during take-off; our staff will then begin the safety instructions. Relax, and thank you for choosing SharjoAirlines, the fastest way to the newest hypes.

No Bloodmoon Yorick? Sadness.

Looks like Riot has killed another meme.

Off topic: ANYONE ELSE EXCITED FOR A POOL PARTY MAP?!

SukishooJan 23, 20172 votes

Nah, it will be the new one that they started ;0

Eternal791Jan 23, 20179 votes

I'm sad. Blood moon Yorick could have been way better than Talon and TF. And I was hoping for a blood moon skin for a champ that I actually play.

RO538UDJan 23, 20173 votes

Same here :( Let us take a moment of silence and hope again next year.

N KomaedaJan 23, 20177 votes

Jhin and Diana were perfect choices, but I did not expect Talon and TF to receive one.

I want to know everyone's opinion; From this sneak peek; Which one is your favorite?

Pointing it out; Definitely Jhin .

So I figured that Riot stopped caring about the original lore of the Blood Moon line (Shen and Akali telling a story, and Ionian depictions of shadow isles) after Zilean, but why Talon and TF?

Valaran NaraJan 23, 20172 votes

DIANA!?!?!

YES! No more complaints and Rito PLS!

At least, concerning a blood moon skin. I was not looking forward to that if it was to come and pass.

Also, the fact that they put TF in there made it crazy. @w@

Also-also, now that it is no longer canon as a story in Ionia, Akali is super weird and out of place with everything.

How do you think she fits into it all? Do you think she's going to remain as that girl who put on the mask to blend in and hide?

N KomaedaJan 23, 20172 votes

Ionia themed? Shen , Yasuo and Kennen would like to have a talk with you. I could see Zed also getting one.

ParallelityJan 23, 20176 votes

shen yas and kennen are all ionians...

Stars ShaperJan 23, 20172 votes

Bloodmoon Rift looks awesome.

I thought it would be Bard one of the others. I secretly hoped it was Aurelion Sol.

SharjoJan 23, 201719 votes

See, we're on the same wavelength you and I. Bloodmoon Aurelion Sol/Bard would've been stellar.

Stars ShaperJan 23, 201717 votes

Read that in Aurelion Sol's voice. It was epic.

Someone needs to make a full A Sol version of this.

the weeabooJan 23, 20172 votes

Not gonna lie I'm REALLY disappointed in these choices.

JHIN The one I'm actually excited for. He deserves it considering how big his player base is and the fact he only has one skin.

TALON His skins right now are okay. He deserves one with some color changes though.

TWISTED FATE Meanwhile I crafted The Maginificent Twisted Fate thinking it was gonna be a 1820 skin but I got a 520 skin for quadruple the orange essence. Why are we giving TF a Bloodmoon skin it doesn't work thematically or anything. He's a western guy with cards. Red cards? Big whoop. REWORK MAGNIFICENT TWISTED FATE BEFORE YOU GIVE HIM ANOTHER SKIN. Extremely disappointed.

DIANA I. HATE. THIS. SKIN. WASTE OF A SKIN. Her theme is already the fucking moon. It's redundant as hell. She just got Infernal (RED FIRE) and you guys give HER the skin when we still have Yorick and Evelynn getting the short end of the stick for YEARS? I'm disappointed in Riot for giving in to the weenies insteD of just giving her a red chroma.

Pakku Ito Jan 23, 20177 votes

the community has been asking for a Blood Moon Diana since 6 years, calm down bruh

Valor BotJan 23, 201710 votes

Blood Moon is a skin line that draws from several visual styles and themes. Very little of it actually has to do with the moon itself, so I'm not exactly sure why you think Blood Moon Diana is redundant. I'm with you that Blood Moon Yorick would have been a good opportunity for a skin, but it hasn't been 100% ruled out yet. Let's wait until more details are given.

Chembaron YamadaJan 24, 20172 votes

Don't understand it either. Yes, it is called Bloodmoon. But the actual theme of the skin line is japanese folklore. It really isn't redundant for Diana to get a japanese themed skin.

DervalananaJan 24, 20172 votes

It would better to say that "Diana has no ties to the blood moon" because she's neither Ionian nor a Shadow Isle horror. The blood moon skin line is all about Ionia's "halloween". The Ionian champs are in costume, and the shadow isle creatures are how they are seen in Ionian lore, kinda like how there are different versions of the boogey monster, or santa claus
