What kind of skin would you want Irelia to get for her next skin?

I'm pretty sure everyone is aware of the whole Frostblade situation and how it got heavily changed, much to the communities dislike. In the end though, Riot has made their statement that they aren't going to "band aid" the skin by trying to revert it back a bit. So, yeah that sucks.

But while that's going on, I feel it's probably time to start discussing on what kind of skin people would like to see Irelia get next after her rework launches to live. And after all, she's recently become one of the few champs to go over 1000 days without a new skin so I think it might be time to start suggesting ideas for the future.

Some of my higher suggestions:

  • PROJECT - There is literally no other idea that pops up first in my head. Irelia I truly feel would be perfect for the PROJECT series. Hell, if people or Riot wanted, it could even try to incorporate the old design of Frostblade a bit. Think about it: old/still current Frostblade is more futuristic and serious than the rest of the winter/frost themed skins. With PROJECT, they could make that maybe she was kept in cryo-stasis for a while and when she gets revived she has a small frost theme to her, or at the very least has the colors of old Frostblade. If that doesn't work, then at the very least we can see some cool design ideas for Irelia in this series.

  • Arcade - This one is kind of lower on the idea list, but still could work [also wasn't originally thought of by me, t'was Eranell ]. The fact that she dances around when fighting does give the idea of those Dance Dance Revolution games. At the very least, her blades and ult wall could be pixel-like arrows.

  • Blood Moon - I really don't know how much this would work or if people could get behind it, but if some good guys like Shen can get into this series than why not Irelia?

  • Arclight - Again, this one is kind of low on the list but I could see this working for her a bit. Theme mostly revolves around slaying evil and protecting the light, and with Irelia slaying Noxians due to her view of them as evil and protecting Ionia, I don't see how this couldn't work.

  • Chef/ Culinary Skin - ...yeah I just thought of this more as a joke, but you never know it could be a nice cheap skin. Especially since her blades could be kitchen knifes.

  • Cosmic - The second skin to come to my mind after PROJECT (just couldn't remember until now while writing this). Blades form constellations, W and E form constellations, Ult is basically a big constellation, I would pay for this. It's honestly a series I wish would get more attention for because I really do think these skins are beautiful.

  • Emerald/Elderwood - Basically she's an elf, blades are leaves, just a small idea that came to my mind.

Those are just my ideas anyway, but what about you? What kind of skin concepts for Irelia would you like to see for her next skin?

Pool Party, Warring Kingdoms, or Arcade Irelia would be my top 3 choices for a skin out of a set.

Still hoping Brorelia shows up one day also.

Emerald... great idea!!!

Blood moon and project are indeed coming.

Other skins could be blademistress, something prehistoric/voodoo like with bones instead of blades, some desert derwish/Genie skin, tango or masquerade irelia?
