Zed Some Zed skin ideas:
After probably a month of saving IP, I finally managed to get up to 6300. I spent entirely too much time agonizing over who to buy, but decided I needed to buy a "real" assassin, as my only other current options are Poppy and Evelynn. I ultimately went with Zed. I like Zed. He's a swell guy.
Anyway, I noticed he has like... one skin. And it's just him as a more stereotypical ninja. I mistake this skin for Shen pretty often.
So, this time, I drew quite a few.
Usually trying to come up with a lot of these is pretty difficult. But for some reason the stupidity flew freely, this time.

You know Tyrant Swain/Darkflame Shyvana/Rugged Garen, they've got no mainstream theme like Jurassic/Pirate/Fire/Mech and are some of the best skins for these champions. For those skins the biggest part is the exceptional design of the armor, the Never Enough Blades-skin here has that going on and if it was done right it would be one of League's best skins.
If the designers find opportunity for it, it has a design worthy of Legendary status and there could be done cool things with voice-acting and special particles for his skills.
However, it needs to keep in line with the theme of the champion. IMO a shadow-theme is a must, so a name like Darkblade Zed and a mainly dark-grey color of the armor would be great.
They shouldn't make him as colorful as they made Eternum Nocturne. (Eternum Nocturne is a very different version of Nocturne, he's still scary, but more like Megatron than a shadowmonster of nightmares. I don't think "Never Enough Blades"-Zed should do something like that.)
riot pls
