Suggestion, I think they should make icons based on specific regions of champions to show support.

I'm a huge fan of League lore, crazy and obsessed with it so when I heard about the Universe beta I went crazy, how Riot was showing images of what the places in the regions would actually look like visually, how in depth everything was. Absolutely loved it. But what i've noticed is that outside of the cosplay and a few events they've done ingame (Devil Teemo, Bilgewater, etc.) there wasn't anything too crazy that could completely represent the love for a place or something specific for a champion. I don't want to go too out of the box for a suggestion or anything and say just create icons or something for every specific champion! Because during over the period of time these champions have gained their own typed of attitudes and character for themselves all in one that coming up with the concept wouldn't only be challenging and a lot of time but a lot of work. But basically to show support for their region and maybe put the icons in game so they could be of use to show support for the champion and the place they actually came from, and as a fan of lore for this game I feel like all in all doing that over the concept for a specific champion would open a lot of doors to also get other players into the lore for this game with conversation as to like, "What is that icon? What's it for?" and than people could be in the same boat as me. I was going through the Universe beta website and basically just want to throw the regions icons in the game like this for instance is Ionia. http://imgur.com/a/g3yWM Anyways, if you guys have any other ideas or anything. Shoot. [zombie-nunu-hearts]

It's hard to want to use event based icons when everyone's got them if they've got nothing to do with any of your mains, so area based icons would be a nice option. I think role-based icons would be pretty neat too!

Yeah they already have role-based icons [slayer-jinx-wink] But I get what you're saying, I didn't want anything event-based. I'm saying just their region in general to represent where your favorite champion came from.

They have the Shadow ilse icon, the Bilgewater icon and the Piltover Icon. I don't remember when they made the Shodow ilse Icon but the Bilgewater was made in the lore event Burning tides. The Piltover one was made in the new Piltover lore event and they will mostlikely make the Zaun one soon in the Zaun event.

They will probably make every Icon as they come to the lore events so don't worry. Though it might take some time for the Ionian one to come.

Yeah the timeline in between each is just so far when who knows if those were just events for the champions and the shadow isles thing was just for Yoricks rework, im saying in a general form to give someone this icon to represent their champions and where it came from as a whole.

I also forgot that they have a Shurima Icon from befor I started playing league. I totally agree that they should make a Icon for every region but I don't think they will do every region soon, sadly.

They already made those, look up VPBE page and current patch page on the wiki.

I personally can't wait for the Zaun icon. I don't think Mount Targon ever got an icon though
