Grey Warwick and Medieval Twitch splash art

I think when their splash art gets updated they should have a combined art piece with Twitch shooting at Warwick from a castle tower. I think the skins having a shared splash art would work in reference to both skins being originally earned from Refer-A-Friend [I didn't play LoL at the time so I never got the skins but I want them!] If this was done they could do some sort of splash border for those that originally earned the skins like the original PROJECT skins.

I want Riot to find a way to brings the skins out of limited, maybe through a temporary event or low drop rate in hextech. Maybe even make an official LoL Tumblr or something and make it earned like Riot Girl Tristana or Dreadknight Garen.

Also: As a Twitch main I find it frustrating that so many of his skins are just not easily accessible and that his highest tier skin is 975. He needs some love in the skin department in some way or another.

I talked to a Riot KateyKhaos the other day, and we know it's a possibility. However, it's something to keep in mind how some people have gotten this skin manually, and how much work that is for them, only for the skin to be rereleased via a significantly easier method.

I somewhat like how his skins are so hard to get. It really puts a challenge on acquiring all of them. I've been working on getting all of his skins for 5 years now, and Medieval is the last one standing. All the times Riot have brought back the legacy skins, I've kept an eye out for the Twitch ones, and it feels so satisfying owning almost all of them, knowing the work I've gone through. So, in this way, I can relate to those who have Medieval Twitch, Grey Warwick, King Rammus, Riot Singed, etc. You are proud of what you have, and you want Riot to respect that. It shouldn't be hard, however, to join those with the skin; those who like Twitch as much as you and me.

Seeing as Medieval Twitch and Grey Warwick are (a) rare, and (b) rewards of a social event, I thought it would be fitting for some sort of anniversary of friendships? If you've been friends with someone for a long time via League (say, 3-4 years) they have the option of gifting you the skin? It keeps the social referral-type nature of the skins, and also keeps the skins rare. Perhaps only once every year, but it would be a nice way of staying in touch with those who you still play the game with after all those years.

On the other hand, I certainly agree that Twitch could do with a new good skin. It shouldn't be a legacy one, but at least 1350 tier. A Snow Day Twitch skin would work rather well, with him throwing snowballs as his W, and disappearing in a puff of snowflakes with his Q. Possibly, we might see the return of Exterminator Twitch, a teched-out pest controller with some nifty poisonous gadgets up his sleeve?

Who knows, we can only pray to Riot.
