Ike the title, so a rioter said in her twitter account the next snowdown skins and i want to show you my research about who this champs are..

First, lets go to her twitter account to see the hints: Here

Now that you saw it, what specific champs do you pertain in this emoji's?? that would be hard too....

But yesterday, i saw this post from reddit: Here

So my Guess would be:

Bad Santa Warwick Slay Belle Akali Festive Jinx Candy King (or otherwise candy-themed) Draven - lollipops for axes

Possible Candidate: Wukong and kennen because of the monkey and Lux, Nasus, and Jax, but the op in reddit told that nasus might be reserved for lunar revel considering the next Chinese zodiac is the year of the dog.

My guess is that Warwick's going to be for the year of the dog. He's a good pupper.

OK, onto the decoding: If you take the first letter of each emoji's code name, you'll get: CFSMSPSLSCPC But if you take the letter of each emoji's code name that corresponds to its place in the tweet, you get: CAOKMIAPWKES

...hopefully someone can work with this. I'll do more research. I don't think that the images are the hints though, I think that it's an underlying thing that has to do with the emojis. She has too many repeats otherwise. She also said that "the hints aren't that obvious".

Writer of the Reddit post checking in. Thank you for spreading the good word. Stellari told me "the stuff you found isn't necessarily coming anytime soon" so I'm bummed, but hoping at least one of the skins on the list happens!!

Personally I think Nasus would be much better for a Christmas skin since I want Warwick to get the Lunar Revel skin instead.

For a start, each character is represented by either 3, or 4 emoji's. Which means there is either 4, or 3 skins.

As to my theories of who they may be, only one i am decently confident in. If it goes by the 3-per-character basis, that second one, which is Monkey/Snowman/Penguin, could refer to Ivern considering he hasn't gotten a skin in some time, he could easily fit the skinline with his jolly nature, and that two of them are animals which fit his nature, and...he could easily be compared to a snowman, Frosty-style.

Alright we got our reveals.

I was right about 2/3 champs. I am surprised by Poppy as she already has a Snowdown skin, but she was in the files. So uh yeah.

Also, Kog'Maw was in the files and Hextech Kog just got unveiled. :) Unfortunately no WW skin - Urfwick is the reason he's in the files now.

So, look forward to skins for these champions: Akali, Gragas, Heimerdinger, Jax, Lux, Miss Fortune, Nasus, Nunu, Urgot (My guess is Warring Kingdoms Nasus, Akali, Jax!)

So i think that a warwick skin is hopeful, I sent in a ticket about something warwick related and from the mod response well it seemed like warwick might get a new skin soon.

I think the snowflakes and the snow clouds are dividers / endcap kind of things. Which means three skins.

So, Santa, a snowman (with sparkles) that has a monkey and a penguin, and a snowman (without sparkles) with a lollipop and a cookie, plus a random party popper.

Santa... there's too many candidates, so I'm just goinna say we're getting a Santa skin this year.

I'm assuming the sparkly snowman is someone who uses magic, and the monkey and penguin are references to abilities, or different forms. I would say Lulu, but she already has a winter skin. I'd also say Godyr because of his passive's name, but I don't think Riot would put out a skin for a champ that needs a rework (though he has an ultimate skin, so they will put off his rework as much as they can, since his ultimate makes him playable and is profitable because of that). Maybe it's Quinn, since humans are related to monkeys and a penguin is a bird. Maybe it's Kayn, with his whole duality theme.

As for the snowman with the lollipop and a cookie... I think that's a weapon and a shield, and the lack of sparkles means someone more physical rather than magical. Which means Freewintheon or Leona. As for the significance of the party popper... who's better at engaging a teamfight (and starting the party)? Pantheon or Leo? I could see it being Poppy too, but I don't think Riot likes her enough to give her a skin.

When he said other champs it was because on pbe files you can find some .wad files about them, he meant jax and nasus because he found'em on wad files thus seeing what champs were probably going to get a skin.

Santa Draven, Elf Jinx, Fawn Poppy are already things now.

Slay Belle Akali from the reddit post is a possibility and it fits her well honestly.

Id say Nasus is getting a lunar skin, and possibly Warwick too. They're both dogs, next lunar revel is the year of the dog....

...however, I WOULD like to see a reindeer Warwick....that mauls people...
