What unused concepts would you like to see in game someday?

So the other day I was on Zoe's wiki page when I noticed in her gallery there were a few pieces of concept art that I hadn't seen before. In one of these pictures it appeared as they were going for a cat-like Ascended, potentially based off of Bastet.

Now, if you know me you know I would LOVE a Bastet inspired Ascended champion. However, I like Zoe in her current form too! It just made me cross my fingers and hope they come back to this concept someday. That in and of itself got me thinking about what other unused concepts people want to come to the game eventually!

So yeah TL;DR Zoe was almost a cat ascended, I want that in game someday - what unused concepts do YOU want to see come to the game eventually? Can be champs, skins, maps, etc - any unused concepts!

I would love to see them unscrap the "Ink Mage", a champion that is able to physically draw on the map in order to activate their abilities. Either make it so that they have one ability that is able to do different things by drawing a different symbol, or a skillshot that affects the area you draw (draw a line to shoot a projectile, draw a circle to make a zone, etc.)

I remember playing an old Ben 10 video game where one of the characters XLR8 had an ability where he stops moving and you instead take control of a small beacon for a short duration, drawing a path behind it as you moved it. Once the duration was up, you would travel along the line you drew, dealing damage to enemies in that area and knocking them over. You could zip around to CC multiple enemies, or "scribble" on top of one target for heavy damage. I think something like that could be implemented.

If there's a concept(s) I would like to see, it's the following:

Looks like what more or less become Qiyana. Would love to see an ascended cat woman character, although I don't think Zoe or Qiyanas kit really lends to that.

Here's hoping!

I want a Raccoon champ. Also a thief champ who can steal stats from enemies temporarily or something

Eventually turned into Camille Kaisa, Husk and the concept of HIVE would have been REALLY cool to see into the game. Her feud with Caitlyn after the latter betrayed her would have given us character insight over both. And we would have been introduced more into Zaun/Piltover's relationship, especially considering that we'll would be seeing it from the eyes of a former Piltoverian. As for Gameplay, it would be have been cool to see what she can do with a Jetpack and Zaun/Piltover technology and have her revenge on Caitlyn .

Alas, she was scrapped, Husk held really good potential for the story and the game. I hope Riot can revisit her and look over their scrapped champions because some of them would have been amazing to see as actual characters.

The Shuriman wizard that was scrapped in favour of Aphelios

I'd like Riot to take how it feels to play AGAINST a champion into account for once.

If i can't have that give me a new undead champ that isn't fully human in appearance

I'd like to see the elemental hydra concept. I'm a big fan of monster champs and while I like the voidborn, I also think that we need some monsters who are not from the void.(currently Skarner is probably the only one).

Hmm, maybe those metal-people that had almost became Qiyana would be cool to see. Perhaps it's not too late to add them as a new race around Ixtal? If not there, then maybe outside of Valoran and Shurima in another continent. Either way, I think it's a super creative idea for a new race in Runeterra.

Anyone remember Omen? The guy who they couldn't decide what his kit should be so he was replaced by Riven?

It's been a couple of years since then and Riot has gotten more... creative with champion kits, so to speak. What would they make him if he was being released now? A void monster? A demon? Would he be AP or AD? Who knows.

EDIT: according to the LoL Wiki, sometime in 2019 a rioter actually revealed one iteration of Omen's kit before he was completely scrapped. Guess I'll just drop it here for fun.

Small time thing, but I'd like to see them give Vel'Koz a lava squid skin based off his original character idea.

The unused GGMF stuff. The skin could have so much cooler.
