Could we have the original reworked Tango Evelynn coloring back as a chroma?

This is the original coloring of the reworked Tango Evelynn teased in her champion reveal, but changed shortly after to fit her splash.

This pale palette fit her character much better as a demon. She looks much like a ghost and made her take on a much scarier/chilly look compared to the current colors.

My proposal is to sell the original coloring as a chroma, along with (possibly) a line of other chromas which change the details and colors of her hair and dress. For example, she could have a series of pink orchids lining the bottom of her dress along with a dark pinkish/rosewood base dress color, in addition to coordinated flowers in her hair. Obviously that’s just one rough concept but there are lots or possibilities.

So, do you all think that this could be a good idea? Evelynn is lacking skins lately and a series of chromas for tango could be wonderful, and I would definitely buy them.

I agree. Heck they could go even further and try a hand at giving the skin several chromas that change the color of the dress and her skin, black Eve could be possible.

Sure, make it a chroma. Options are always nice.

I disagree. It's mainly in regards to how Riot would want to keep some level of consistency for how they sell chromas. Selling a single one as an "option" wouldn't be worth it, at least from how I see it. Now on the other hand, if they sold a handful (3-8) of chromas involving different skin + outfit + hair colors, it could maybe work.

Honestly, it's possible for Riot doing chromas of the outfit + flowers in the future, though there would also be a matching set for TF as well, as to maximize their profit. That's what I see being the best option for Riot to take: Less work changing skin colors, and more sales having two champions with very specific matching skins + chromas. If most people want Eve's skin color changed I wouldn't stand against them over it. If anything, I'm mainly trying to play a bit of devil's advocate.

i think a chroma for tango is a great idea, although i disagree with your point about the whole pale demon skin fitting her character more just because A) she specifically chose the form of an attractive woman and likely she could change her skin color if she really wanted, and B) skins arent necessarily supposed to reflect the character in any way, theyre more of a "what if" kinda deal.

either way, i think its a great idea to give the skin a chroma line

Make it a chroma sure. But the skin was supposed to make her human.

I've mained Eve for a pretty long time when I hit lvl 30 back in the day (after her first rework) and although I don't main jungle anymore, I was suuuuper happy about the Eve Rework. The only thing that disappointed me that they made her be a BLONDE woman in a Tango dress. I prefered this ghoul-ish version and would definitly buy the chroma!

Personally I like the current Caucasian flesh tone better than this ghostly hue. It's why I ended up buying it despite not playing Ev that much. However, I don't see why a Chroma with her blue-ish skin couldn't be a thing considering how many people seem to enjoy that.

As someone else said in the thread they could do different skin tones/hues with different dresses. That would be dope.

I'd like to have the old tango Eve back, she looked so much cooler,like a demon, not like a small feminine barbie-girl
