975 rp skins and quality

[this is my first forum post ever so excuse whatever poor formatting i may have]

I've always wondered why the 975 tier skins have the widest range of affects on champs. it recently came up on my head why skins like ShockBlade Zed , Steel Legion Lux , Muay thai LeeSin , Mafia Jinx , and Popstar Ahri all look exceptionally better than most other 975's and had little bits of charm like Zed's idle, Ahri's dance (ctrl+3, seriously why do none of the k/da skins have their choreography in their dances), Lux's idle and walking animations etc.

Now it could just be that all efforts on the art team are being directed to 1350 tier skins, which is great. There is a clear line of a quality jump from almost all 975 skins to 1350 skins, i think the 1st and 2nd gen of blood moon skins really show this, but it makes me wonder where these small details went.

thanks for reading my ramblings

It's a good question, consider they're WAY more sparing with skins now. Once upon a time, every new champion was released with two bonus skins, and now it's one. They'd also release skins more often back then. And yet they managed to slip details into many of those older skins that are missing today. It's odd.
