CLIENT Selected Skin Not Being Used in Game

Hello. Bug: I have clearly selected a skin (Infernal Nasus) in the pre-game lobby (blind pick or team builder on SR) but that skin isn't used in game. This bug has happened consistently with Infernal Nasus and once or twice with other skins

  1. Start up a team builder or a blind pick

  2. Select Nasus

  3. Choose the Infernal Nasus skin

  4. Start the game and the standard skin is wrongly used.

This isn't just for Nasus or any specific champion, this happens with everyone. The best way I've been able to combat it is;

  1. Choose champion, then click the default skin (If playing Ranked or Normal Blind skip step 2)
  2. Press Okay and open back up your champion's skin list
  3. Click the skin you want to use.
  4. Press okay

I believe the reason behind this is if you pick a champion, the client behind the scenes is automatically defaulting BACK to the original skin, even though in the client itself it shows you have the other skin picked. So by doing the instructions, it points it to the real default skin, then back to the skin you want to use.
