... Rumor is apparently 2 live patches from now we will have Star Guardian skins ... on the patch Urgot is released. [slayer-pantheon-rainbows]

This would also explain why Urgot was released so far from the patch he'll be on for the PBE. For more HYPE.

I havent seen them online, but a friend of mine remembers patch notes a little too clearly, and the SG skins were released on the patch 2 patches from now 1 year ago, as well as we know that we are getting more SG skins according to the leak that was correct about Xayah and Rakan.

I'm taking it with a grain of salt until some form of evidence besides anecdotes appear.

Edit: Did your work for you and dug it up.

If your point was to hint at SG Urgot, one, no mention of it here. Second, name me the last time a full rework champion got a new skin on release of said rework. I can't recall even one in the last couple of years.

Im also not saying it WILL happen, but that thought just came to mind.

However on your second point, Urgots release is kinda unique, for one he was shown much longer before the patch than usual (He was shown a week before his actual PBE patch, while most new champs and reworks are shown about 1 to 2 days before patch) On top of that, Urgot hasnt gotten a skin in a LONG time, and while you can say the same for, well Yorick for instance, no reworked champ has had a skin concept the ENTIRE COMMUNITY said they wanted. As well as Urgot i believe has been in development for a decent bit longer than usual, this could mean that they were struggling (although i beleive somewhere they said that his ult was a first iteration) OR that they were also developing a skin at the same time, as well as him being pushed closer to when SGs were released.

Now again, im not saying its true, but it isnt COMPLETELY unfounded.

It's fan speculation at the moment. I'm in no way opposed to the skin concept, but there is no evidence yet. We'll know soon enough. It'll have to pass through the PBE like all the others. I'm more curious about more Omegasquad skins.
