Skins aside, League doesn't have a single witch character, or even really anything close. People have been wanting Rito to add a grandma champion to the game, and what better way to do that than to make her the original grandma witch. Also, Baba Yaga is such a huge folkloric figure and archetype that it honestly feels weird that she doesn't exist in a game that already has everything from magical girls to Egyptian god ripoffs.
Also also, the chicken leg witch hut and the mortar and pestle could make for some really interesting abilities. Just imagine playing mid when Baba Yaga comes striding in in a f*cking house on legs.
