Winter Champion is such a generic name

Honestly, couldn't they have come up with something a little more creative and catchy? Arctic Champion for example? Or Eskimo champion? Anything else honestly. I'm hoping supercell will realize how generic it is and change the name like they did for the "Halloween Obstacle" that eventually was renamed Spooky Tree.

Or maybe it's what they were going for this time🤔.....

Now that you mentioned it, I guess we have 4 Heroes and each Hero will represent a Seasons to make up the Seasons set (Autumn Queen & Winter Champion). Summer King & Spring Warden / Summer Warden & Spring King will be the remaining Hero Skin set.

That might be possible as both autumn queen and winter champion represent the name of a season.

Though I am guessing it to be a part of another set other. It could be included as the rest of the skins of "winter set" which would comprise of jolly king, ice queen, winter champion and probably another skin for GW.

The problem is you're thinking very linguo-centrically. In other words, you're looking at it through the lens of a single language. It is standard for Clash of Clans to name things as basic and straight forward as possible. That's why none of the unit names have any kind of punny names. As an example, the Scattershot was originally supposed to shoot ice particles. One suggested name was calling it the "Avalauncher" as a portmanteau of "avalanche" and "launcher". The problem is that it only makes sense in English. Our game isn't only played in English. The names of units have to remain largely consistent across languages, meaning they have to translate into other languages and make sense.

Winter Champion is a name that can be easily translated. Eskimo Champion? There are no Eskimos in Clash of Clans. I'm surprised you've only just noticed the plainness of the naming convention. Let's take a look at the other names:

Cannon
Archer Tower
Wall
Mortar
Barbarian
Witch
Rage Spell

Everything in game is named as plainly as possible to give no misconception of what it is and what it does. The Skins are no different.

Agreed on this one.

It's good to hear some behind the scenes story. Thanks for sharing this.
I'm calling Scattershot "Ava" now.
