As always, keep in mind this content is tentative and could change before hitting the live servers.
Our two new skins are Pool Party Ziggs and Astronaut Nautilus! Both of these skins were community concepts originally crafted at the hands of MaTTcomGo.
Astronautilus
Katarina, in lieu of her newly updated kit, received a fresh set of icons.
If you were undecided on who was featured on the Brazilian launch skin teaser , here is a little bit of confirmation that it is indeed good ole' Gangplank .
Now for the remaining bits and pieces:

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
ReplyDeleteAstronautilus confirmed! So happy!
ReplyDeleteThey should give him a flag as a weapon instead, it would be more funny and interesting!
DeleteNo, because then they would have to re-code the animations just for the skin, and that would make it start pushing towards being a legendary
DeleteWhy not two legendary astronauts? Astroanuts is kinda legendary.
DeleteMaTTcom can be proud, 2 of his desings made into the game
ReplyDeleteya i was pretty stoked about that too. now i'm hoping for Brorealia
DeleteHe was paid for them.
DeletePOOL PARTY ZIGGS <333
ReplyDeleteHeh hope the guy who made the art gets it for free (and maybe some royalties on the skins sold)
ReplyDeleteGood, now where are Russian Knight Olaf, Stormblade Karma, and more importantly, Lu Bu Jarvan IV ? :(
ReplyDeleteGlad to see Riot made those two skins become reality though.
I was just thinking the same thing.
DeleteLu Bu J4, Russian Knight Olaf, Dreadknight Tryndamere...they disappeared?
Moobeat - any word if these are even still in the game files? I know a model for RK Olaf was found for his ult, textures for J4 and Olaf also and just animation files for DK Trynd.
I heard that Russian Knight Olaf is meant for the release of the Russian server... Maybe one of the others for the upcoming Turkish one? Stormblade Karma will likely come out once Karma's rework is finished. Which will probably be one of the upcoming patches this year (along with Soraka's remodel.)
Deletelu bu j4 is still in the works. skin spotlights posted a pic of his spear on twitter a few weeks ago.
DeleteWow. That's epic. Two community skins!
ReplyDeleteWow. That's epic. Two community skins!
ReplyDeleteWoo! Another community skin ideas coming true! Like the Frost Queen Janna :O
ReplyDeleteWow.... I'm hoping when they rework Soraka's model, they update her spell icons as well. Eve too.
ReplyDeleteAlready have Mad Scientist Ziggs but...this is just too awesome to pass up.
ReplyDeleteAlso yess great Nautilus skin can't wait to see the particles
Fantastic to see Riot responding to community demand again, Pool Party Ziggs is such a great idea! :D
ReplyDeleteyet after this patch, I can't seem to start any games :|
ReplyDeleteAwwww am I the only one wishing Ziggs had a giant rubber ducky strapped to his back and threw exploding duckies instead of the duckies being his W?
ReplyDeleteyay! for new katarina!! :]
ReplyDeletelol ! Just yesterday as I played Nautilus and made his Joke, I was thinking of a Astronaut skin, and now, this. :D

ReplyDeleteI had this as my background a long time ago hahaha XD. Didnt see that one coming XD
any splash art 4 the new skins??
ReplyDeleteHey Moobeat, could you implement a way to subscribe to your blog via RSS or something?
ReplyDeleteHuh? Special Force Gangplank for Brazil launch? I don't get the connection. Is it because Brazil is infamous for gangsters?
ReplyDeleteSearch in google:BOPE
DeleteI thought that there is no way that they will make community skins but then i saw ... :O i would like to see also community skin dj Rumble!
ReplyDeleteThis isn't the first they've made skins based on community ideas. Like Surprise Party Fiddlesticks.
DeleteNautilus looks like WC.
ReplyDeletei think there will be special force miss fortune too because in the background in the photo we can see her
ReplyDeleteumm just wondering on the conformation of the gp skin at the bottom is 'the mighty jax'. that an upcoming skin or....?
ReplyDeleteOld Jax Skin, a play off. " The Mighty Ducks."
Deletehttp://bit.ly/RI5HA6
DeleteRengar's skin was renamed to Headhunter Rengar from Hunter Rengar!
ReplyDeleteOh goody, skins for Naut and Zi-
ReplyDelete(no splash art)
Yeah, sure they'll be released... like Exterminator Twitch...
Actually many new skins on released on PBE without splash art now. You can actually buy and play them on the PBE right now unlike that Twitch skin which was never playable.
DeleteI don't really like Pool Party Ziggs but I could really go for Astronaut Nautilus.
ReplyDeleteI could also go for a Soraka splash art change xD
Are these going to be limited skins or ? (woud love to know :D)
ReplyDeleteFYI "In Lieu of" means instead of; did you mean "in honor of?" coz that'd make more sense
ReplyDeleteIn lieu of means in connection not instead of :-)
DeleteI stand corrected and yes it means instead of or in place of. I was quite confused haha
DeleteBRAZILIAN GANGPLANK ES EAT ORANGES, NOT VIABLE. ONE AND ONLY CHAMP FOR BRAZIL ES MORDEKAISER HUEHUEHUE.
ReplyDeleteso true.
DeleteWhen does the league come to hungary...We wanted the gangplak skin-_-
ReplyDeleteCool. Now I just need my Taliban Kog'Maw skin and my life will be complete.
ReplyDeleteLOL
DeleteNot sure if anyone noticed this, but if someone d/cs on SR, the person at fountain gains 10000 Armor/MR now so people cant just use karthus or some global ulti to gain free kills
ReplyDeletei say that is intentional.
DeleteBut when was this implemented though? I dont believe this was added in before and was recently implemented
DeleteI don't know when it was added in, but I have known about it for a long time. At least months ago.
DeleteMaybe it's not important but in the current fontconfig file are 2 lines with " Diana" and " Draven" for display names, curiously Darius has no ""
ReplyDeletelol it takes the names like tags xD
Deletelets try again "<skin 2> Diana" and "<skin 2> Draven" and no "<skin 2>" for Darius
also a "Zyra PH 2" for skin_displayname_Zyra_2
DeleteAmazing Nautilus Skin!i want!
ReplyDeleteIts not out...
ReplyDeleteAstronaut confirmed to lag
