Hi, out of curiosity I have documented what I got out of Hextech chests and I'd like to share my quota so far as well as some other things later. This is for the simple reason that your "guess" usually inflates negativity (more champs than skins and all gargabe etc) Included in the skinshards are the ones I got from rerolling gems (since I dont collect those) as well as skinshard permanents from rerolls and free skins from events etc.

Champion shards: 22 Skin Shards: 42 Icons: 2 Ward skins: 3 Gems: I didnt count these but it must have been 3 or 4

In case you are interested in the skinshard quality: Ultimate: 0 Legendary: 5 Epic: 6 Rest: 31

The results from rerolls: 8 (all low value) Fiddle me timbers, Defender Leona, Uncle Ryze, SKT1 Lee sin, Academy Ekko, Tribal Ryze, Sherrif Cailyn, Sailor Gangplank

So, so far rerolling skins didnt result in anything worth mentioning. I would be curious to know how your results were, especially when rerolling skin shards?

Something I found counfusing and what I have seen a couple of times is that after a reroll,** some skin permanents remain in your loot** and can be used for the next reroll. Other permanents go directly into your collection and I do not know why. SKT1 Lee Sin remained because I didnt have Lee sin at that time, but Tribal Ryze? Maybe someone knows what's going on there?

@Riot: It would be really nice if we could see if we already have gotten a chest with a champion during champ select. This would be especially nice for Aram.

I hope you found this somewhat interesting or have some data of your own to contribute. You're welcome :)

You can't keep a permanent if you don't have the champion.

Actually you can keep the permanent skin shard, you just cannot add it to your collection when you dont own the champion. But I do own Ryze and the permanent skin shard for Tribal Ryze still stayed in my loot instead of going automatically into the collection, like most others did.

Did you already own the skin?

That's a no.

Did you click on it? Usually it'll give you a reason as to why you can't have it. When I got pulse fire ezreal, it said champion not owned.

If you have a perm shard and have the champ, the skin auto goes into your profile. It only stays in the loot if it can't be used

i never reroll. the chance that you get something worthwile are microscopic, since it can be any skin for any champ you own or dont own.

there are hundreds of skins in the game, and 90% would probably never catch your interest.

it makes more sense to keep even crappy skin shards to disenchant for essence that you can use to unlock skins for champions you actually play. even if just on occation.

I also wonder the reroll system as well as the chests are true random or if the droprates for some skins are lower than for others. Similar to the booster packs in Hearthstone.
