A skin that results in all your AA missing? No thanks :P ######I do realize Stormtrooper can be quite competent if necessary

When Graves is blinded by Teemo, he shoots in a random direction.

You picked the adc with a shotgun.

That is LITERALLY the only ADC with a gun unlike single shot gun the stormtroopers use.

Jinx ? Jhin ? Caitlyn ? MissFortune ? Lucian ?

DeathBot666Feb 19, 20171 votes

I can kind of see jinx since she has those rockets, but the rest of them would work. Even though storm troopers don't technically carry 2 weapons like MissFortune Lucian , they still fire like the guns storm troopers carry. Jhin and cait would work fine. Dont know why those are here.

All of the dual pistol wielders would be equally unlike them in my mind, but i agree it was a bit off. At the time I was thinking more about Graves durability matching up with the full suit of armor storm troopers wear but w/e. Unless you go Caitlyn there isnt really a better option for it (not really any rifle users other than her).

"The hammer is the source of the power. The power is the hammer of the Forsaken. The Forsaken are the power of the Order.

And the Chosen will crumble."

jedi mantra: There is no emotion, there is peace. There is no ignorance, there is knowledge. There is no passion, there is serenity. There is no chaos, there is harmony. There is no death, there is the Force

sith mantra:

Peace is a lie, there is only passion. Through passion, I gain strength. Through strength, I gain power. Through power, I gain victory. Through victory, my chains are broken. The Force shall free me.

crystal code (closest to the league quote):

The crystal is the heart of the blade. The heart is the crystal of the Jedi. The Jedi is the crystal of the Force. The Force is the blade of the heart. All are intertwined. The crystal, the blade, the Jedi. You are one.

Also iirc, skin was released on May 4th (may the 4th be with you) Totally star wars'd up the wazoo.

That would be so awesome! I love chosen Yi and swampmaster Kennen, and the super nova Gangplank or whatever its called also looks a Little starwarsy!!! Someone like Shen or Fiora could get a chosen skin while someone like Jhin could either get a boba fett looking bountyhunter skin or a stormtruper skin it is just so many posibilities!

I'm hoping Irelia will get one when she finally gets her VGU.

Weilding multiple lightsabers with the force? Sure.

As much as I dislike Fiora she would make a really good chosen one skin. She can have a lightsaber and her parry is a shield using the force. It just kinda fits.

WinTheWarOnPantsFeb 18, 20171 votes

could be an insane legendary/ultimate Irelia skin. she needs her VGU first though.

MyrmironFeb 18, 20171 votes

Absolutely not, at least nothing too obvious. EA has an exclusive deal on anything Star Wars video game related since 2013. Since then multiple Star Wars fan projects already have had to be shut down, and remade without anything Star Wars-y inside them. The deal will last until 2023, and I HIGHLY doubt that Riot Games will even look in Star Wars' general direction until then.

Darth SidioussFeb 19, 20172 votes

Well there had to be copyright stuff behind the scenes when chosen yi came out. Maybe Riot got special permissions with the company like they sat down and talked it over before the decision was made.

MyrmironFeb 19, 20171 votes

Chosen Yi was released in 2010, when Star Wars was still in the hands of Lucasfilm, which got acquired by Disney in 2012. Neither of them should be a problem since Disney as well as Lucasfilm are known for being very tolerant of fan projects and such. It's just since 2013, when EA got the exclusive rights that Disney and Lucasfilm are suing everyone eyeballing with Star Wars to protect their deal with EA. If they wouldn't sue them, EA could see this as a deal breaker and sue Disney and Lucasfilm for fantastillions.

Darth SidioussFeb 19, 20171 votes

But Riot makes money off of it wouldn't any of the two companies be upset?

MyrmironFeb 19, 20171 votes

I used fan projects as an example for leniency of the companies. Maybe Chosen Yi is vague enough to not rustle any jimmies. As I said Lucasfilm and Disney are usually very tolerant with this (as long as you don't use any original characters at least). Also, as I said, Chosen Yi is from 2010. Riot Games in 2010 was a very small indie developer with barely any business experience. In other words, maybe they created Chosen Yi without thinking too much about the potential aftermath. Today's Riot Games is A LOT more professional in every way imaginable, so risks when tampering with other company's intellectual property will be taken into consideration a lot more. Also, there's a big difference between having 1 (one) "Easter Egg" in your game compared to having a full line up of skins whose whole identity as well as selling point it is being Star Wars-y.

I don't have any behind the scene's knowledge by the way, these are all just assumptions mixed with a little knowledge. I want these skins as much as the next person, I just don't see them happening.

Darth SidioussFeb 19, 20171 votes

I can see it if they were to professionally talk it over with each other come up with a deal like some of the profit is given back to Disney since i believe Disney has now taken over George Lucas company. You did bring up a point of not taking the original characters or anything so yeah it might be more possible if you put it that way. There has to be some high up Riot employee that can reach out to the company and just ask or i imagine they know what boundaries they can work around already without engaging into a lawsuit.

MyrmironFeb 19, 20171 votes

As I said it's an exclusive deal (the one with EA). I don't think there's a lot of room there for negotiations. The deal probably costed EA hundreds of millions, if not billions, so if Disney were to give an ok to Riot to create a Star Wars skin lineup there'd a be an extraordinarily expensive lawsuit just around Disney's corner. As I said, they even go after fan projects that wouldn't generate any revenue, just because they could take away from the spotlight of EA's games. Again, highly unlikely. Keep in mind that EA is not stupid. The contract is most likely 100% with no room for "working around boundaries". EA expects to make billions off of that deal, which is precisely as much as Disney would have to pay them if they were to break the contact. I'm sure Riot already tried talking to them, as much as I am sure that they got shut down or confronted with an unreasonable offer. These companies don't fool around when there's literally billions on the field, so unless Riot hands over a fortune of the revenue (and probably a lot upfront as well) it won't happen.
