Human Thresh 1820RP skin (maybe) or 1350 cause really I can't imagine 1820 effects I guess.

"Kneel before Vlad" is one of my favourite lines in the game. I never thought it sexually though and I still can't think about it sexually. It's just Blood Lord Vladimir getting peasants to kneel before his super blood powers. Sounds extremely badass when he says it, the voice actor did amazing work. Can't think about that line sexually.

"KNEEL BEFORE VLAD!"

Hey, I always really liked that human Thresh design. And I'm not one that usually likes pretty clean faces (I'm more for types like Graves).

THIS is why

http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/AllWomenAreDomsAllMenAreSubs

When the authors want to include some BDSM into the plot, they might need to have some context and nuance to avoid having the audience mistake it for abuse. But what if there's no room for nuances, or they think Viewers Are Morons anyway? Simple! All Abusers Are Male, right? And BDSM is gender neutral, so the solution is simple: Make sure that it's never a woman being topped by a man.

If you want to know what we're talking about then, quick, think of the last time you saw BDSM portrayed in someway on popular television.

What position was the man in? He was wearing a ball-gag and being dragged around by a collar and chain, you say? Well then, you've just encountered this trope. Only slightly less common are women in BDSM, and without even checking you can't deny that they're never the ones tied to a bedpost and being whipped. Well, not unless it's an outright porno. If there was a woman involved, she was a dominatrix, without exception. Men might be in a dominant role, but only if they are dominating another man because All Men Are Perverts and because rape isn't nearly as stigmatized when it's male on male.

Actually, you might say you've only really encountered this trope when you notice that this is the only acceptable portrayal of BDSM on TV. If you want to know why, then try to imagine the opposite. The general populace tolerates the BDSM subculture on their televisions only when it can be Played for Laughs and no matter what you do, you can't play a man tying up and flogging a woman for laughs. You just can't.

Not to detract from this at all (Because more BDSM aspects are not something I'm against whatsoever), but I'm a good 90% sure "Kneel before Vlad" is intended as a nod towards "Kneel before Zod"

Looks like Vlad and Thresh made a love child but imo I don't want a human Thresh (I love him as is and you should too) but I think there still is room for another Maledom champ to be made, I guess.
