Victorious Skins
My boast is about the Victorious Skins in general, Why do you have to limit it to Only ranked players ? What about players who enjoy playing Aram more than summoner's rift, I for example hate playing in the rift as it takes way too long for a casual game play ! Not to mention the toxic and negative community of Ranked players that Riot Can't control no matter what they do...in Aram if you are good you can prove yourself and lead your team to victory unlike in ranked...you Must have at least 2 decent lanes to achieve victory, not to mention the unbalanced teams and bad match making along with the "pre-made party" option in solo queue that screws up the whole team and usually include a smurf carrying someone else OR a team mates trolling or flaming even before the game starts and you can't leave because you gonna be banned and lose LP and end up losing because the fight lasts during game...etc to conclude there are Many bad experiences in ranked which drive many players to avoid it by not playing it at all.
My suggestion is Not to limited Victorious Skins to ranked, why Not reward good players in other "non ranked" game modes such as twisted tree line or Aram ?? for example a player who "solo queued" his way into 100 wins or 200 wins a victorious skin as well or at least a chance to buy it !! Neglecting such prizes to Aram drove player to Never consider the mode seriously, many times I encountered players who deal with Aram as a bot mode ! without any care for losing or building right...this is pretty much is the first step for losing interest in aram such as the dominion experience ! why Not value other player who try to avoid negativity in ranked and have a good experience in a faster based game mode ??
I used to main Morgana and started to buy all her skin but once I knew there was once a Victorious Morgana couple of years ago "even before I started playing league" I felt frustrated and stopped buying the rest of her skins because I knew I'd never have the chance of owning her whole set as my main champion ! Now I play champions I own casually since I know if I main one I may never be able to get his whole set of skins for some reason.
Why not spread the "Championship Riven" experience and make it better since this experience has a bit of discrimination to it among players because of the 2 versions of skins. Yet The only 2 reasons anyone could reject such experience either he's a child with a greedy feeling of not wanting Anyone else to own what he has Or to sell the account illegally in the future and wants the price of the account to be high with limited skins, How is it fair to be excluded from owning something simply because we were too young to know about the game or understand it and play it ??!
Introduce us "New Players" to those old skins as rewards, and make us share our achievement by the victorious skins in other modes Not just ranked ! I ask you to appreciate the players who love other game modes, Yet you Can easily still define us from the ranked owners by adding a skin boarder during the loading screen to prove their achievement of that skin in that specific mode, why Not make our years of game play meaningful ?! what's the Goal for me reaching Platinum or Diamond in Aram without getting Any appreciation in return ?? People who wasted years on Dominion got an icon and still they were frustrated and sad about that, why Not show some appreciation for players who enjoy other game modes and why not start that Now ??? Or if you Only force people to play ranked to get a reward then simply remove all other game modes and force everyone to Only play ranked, regardless of how disappointed we feel about the end result of that, I hope this made sense and I hope this show you a window for change.
