You get to use different champions for free every week, but what if you've already unlocked one of those champions? I suggest when the same champion you already unlocked is available for others you can use one of that champion's unlockable skins for that week. [This is my first post]
Only Play Nid3 votesThe point of it isn´t to give you a free item, it´s to let you test out those champions to see how you like them.
DanielMcFee1 votesSame point with skins, you get to see them yourself, not just artwork, but you don't "get it free"once that week is over you would need to unlocked it.
Only Play Nid1 votesWith that logic, I would never buy a skin ever again. I own all but.. 4 champs I think. For all intents and purposes, I ALWAYS have free skins. In fact, most weeks I would have a skin for every champ on rotation.
So Fast PogChamp3 votesyou will eventually get all the champions, riot giving you free skins would make them run out of money.
DanielMcFee1 votesNot giving, sampling, if anything I think it would increase the likeliness of selling that skin. you get to see it in action, and if you like it, pay to unlock it and no buyer's remorse because you know you like it.
Only Play Nid1 votesThe opposite effect would happen, as I said in the other post. This would probably end up being a negative to sales. For instance, as champs owned increases, free skins increases, skin purchases decrease, because you essentially get the skins for free, and by buying them you are effectively paying to have it all the time, with real cash. The number of people who are willing to pay cash to just have it all the time is substantially lower than people who pay cash to have something they never get.
So Fast PogChamp1 votesthis man knows where its at, i agree
MasterGaltar1 votesWait, guys: If you're one of those people that buys into the "you aren't a freeweek noob if you use a skin" logic, this actually makes some sense. For example, I'm a Zed main, and I don't own his skin because I think classic Zed is superior. However, I don't HATE Shockblade Zed, and would use the skin while he's on free week for the above reason (people going 'OMG GG freeweek noob' as soon as we get in game, etc.) So, this idea definitely needs some polish, but this guy is, in my opinion, on the right track here.
TheSunOfWinter1 votesi had the exact same thought because i would buy a champ and then it would be free the next rotation and when i use that champ people think im using them because theyre free. but if riot did do this then they would lose money. i know theyre only free for a week but if its common that the champ is free then you'll most likely never buy a skin. its a great idea but riot would lose money from it.
