Harrowing map this year please Riot?

I know you have a TON on your plate Riot. I'm positive we summoners have very little idea just how much you guys are juggling (Worlds are about to go underway, new SR map is going to go live in the next couple of months, etc. etc. etc.) and I am SO pumped about all of what's in store :). but can I say.. I would very (yes very) much love to see holiday maps this year. Call me weird, but I just get excited whenever I think about playing my Headless Hecarim on a cool Halloween decorated SR. The map dimly lit, pumpkins/jack-o-lanterns here and there, maybe spider webs in trees, (heck some cool creepy music would be epic too!)etc. I know it's only like a month and a half until The Harrowing arrives, so if it isn't already on the agenda.. well.. sadly it's probably not going to happen :(. But something still told me I should hop on here before I go into work and say something about it (oh I'm looking forward to the Snowdown Showdown and maybe a cool SR "skin" for that?). Also, and not to wander too far off of the topic of Maps and Modes, if I remember correctly the past 2 years Harrowing content wasn't released until like THE DAY BEFORE Halloween.. um.. no bueno lol. I'm not sure if this is bc of some marketing strategy? But can we talk to some of the big-wigs about getting content out, say, the week OF Halloween (or Xmas or whatever)? Anyway thanks for your time! Even if I don't get a response, hopefully at least one thing I mentioned gets taken into consideration. My friends and I are looking forward to the next couple of months on League! Adios :D

I wouldn't hold my breath for any SR skins this year, not before the new SR goes live, and I predict that to be during the preseason for 2015, so we might not get a Harrowing skin, but I think a Snowdown skin seems at least somewhat likely. :)

I can't see it being made if they were developing the new SR. maybe it will be released then

That is strange marketing to withhold Harrowing skins til the day before Halloween.. You would figure they would be avail all Oct.

I am always up for special things.. More the merrier I say.

If it isnt in development already its probably to late to make it. I hope they were thinking about holiday events though when they were making the new map.

Yeah this would be really cool since I've only been playing for about a year now and haven't gotten to play on any custom SR maps.

I really don' t think so. They are not going to do another Harrowing for a while until they complete the SR rework. i mean, that is the reason why they did no more Winter and Harrowing maps for a while ( while instead we got other cool things, like TT rework, HA and game modes) so i guess we will get some more modes this year.

But hey, probably next year they will come ^_^
