If you could make a skin the default version of a champion, what would you pick?

That is, both aesthetically and for the champion's lore.

came looking for this... was not let down.

Tyrant Swain, it is the base skin improved in every way.

Creator Viktor, same thing.

Darius DUNNNNK MASTER,He was just playin some B-ball at the court when suddenly damacian scum from west side steps up, darius must now dunk on the preppy rich damacians who are shutting down the rec center for their new tennis court.

Tyrant Swain, just seems to be a straight upgrade from his other skins as it's what he was like at his highest moment, gaining the title of Grand General and before he needed a cane to help him walk.

Another would be Creator Viktor, just feels like it would make sense for him to BE looking the part for his GLORIOUS EVOLUTION!

Blackfrost Anivia I kind of want her to team up with Lissandra and Trundle . =)

No way! I like my frozen poultry on the side of good.

"I will not spare you lissandra"

Blackfrost anivia is an evil beyond what lissandra can even compete with!

RiotCidem11 votes

My personal head canon is that Lissandra somehow corrupts Anivia with black ice. However, Blackfrost Anivia eventually ends up beyond Lissandra's control and everything starts to freeze over. ^_^

Icy Auron2 votes

This is exactly the vibe I get from Blackfrost Anivia.

RussoRed2 votes

i fell like thats a good idea because Lissandra is all alone with just Trundle so it would be nice to give her another ally i mean the avarosan have Nunu Ashe Tryndamere Udyr and Anivia

libraryseraph 2 votes

udyr is winter's claw. The Avarosan have Braum

RiotCidem3 votes

Yep! I feel Lissandra needs more backup, even if she does have a troll army. I would imagine having a powerful being like Anivia on her side would tip the scales in her favor. =)

AVAROSAN: Ashe Tryndamere Nunu Gragas Braum

WINTER'S CLAW: Sejuani Volibear Olaf Udyr

FROSTGUARD: Lissandra Trundle Anivia

Spirit Guard Udyr. Do I even need to explain why?

Nameless Hero6 votes

General XinZhao . The one we call Old man Xin.

I really feel that it should have been his default skin since it better matches his back story and we need more badass grandpas on the league

Dantilq6 votes

Mafia Jinx, it's just so much better than original.

Classy clothes. She plays get jinxed during her dance. She have a waaay cooler dance.

Overall it changes feel of her slightly, and for the better IMO.

SGUdyr ,he is like an epic Udyr VU

The Red Warden6 votes

It was probably planned to be a VU but then they decided it would be a lot better as a skin.

Guardian of the Sands Skarner and Xerath: Imagine Skarner and Xerath from shurima

Haunted Maokai: Imagine if Maokai where a champion from the shadow isles instead of Zaun...

Tyrant Swain: Swain as the leader of Noxus

King Tryndamere and Queen Ashe: Imagine if Tryndamere and Ashe where king and queen of the avarosans (or whatever is called).

junglerboy165 votes

King Tryndamere and Queen Ashe are actually both canonical skins already, so nothing would change.

libraryseraph 2 votes

Those description are all canon and tyrant swain is canon, that's the joke (i think, anyways. this being the internet they could genuinely not know)

Still don't understand why they switched the name.

Tyvani2 votes

Absolutely Super Galaxy Rumble. I first started league around when that skin came out and I actually mistook him for a new champion. I loved his whole theme. :)

Nybx4life4 votes

I'd say Mafia Graves.

It's got explosions before the new splash for Graves, and he's got a Tommy shotgun. What's better than that?

EvilMerodach4 votes

REAPER SORAKA Soraka's kit just no longer fits her lore anymore IMO. Using her health to heal others and hurting others to gain health just feels so dark to me. Reaper fits perfectly with that now. Right when they showed new kit and before they even announced reaper skin, I was like 'They're making her into a blood healer?! They should make her all dark and scary to fit the new kit..' ...and so they did, but, yeh, should have swapped classic for it.

River Spirit Nami is amazing; sometimes I forget it's not her base skin.

I'd have Syndra redone with either formal robes, or a heavier set of mage battle regalia. Her helm, shoulders, braces, and to an extent leggings, are reasonably suitable. Her torso section just ... doesn't pull the outfit together. An all powerful mage and self-proclaimed sovereign settles for strips of bondage leather over expensive robes? embroidered cloth with jewelry? It really doesn't make much sense and kinda leaves the rest of her outfit hanging out on its own.

victorious janna. her classic skin is not classy at all :/ or at least her frost queen skin. it feels djinn-like enough that i can say it's a spirit that's mostly nudie. it very much reminds me of Shiva from Final Fantasy :)

I have several skins for her, but Frost Queen is definitely my favorite Janna skin!

Kingpin Twitch while normal skinned twitch is crazy and menacing, kingpin seems to be elegant, clever, and smart to mix in with the menacing and crazy aspects of twitch

Abyssphere2 votes

Koi Nami as classic, I think. It's perfectly fitting for being the default Nami skin but also is just prettier.

roflSong2 votes

I'd also rather have Battlecast Urgot, because i'm more comfortable with him being machine/ cyborg than a blob of something once human.

Spirit Guard Udyr... Seeing as he should have been Udyr's visual update in the first place.
