Final Boss Veigar didn't meet their quota.

Random new Ahri skin outsells Final Boss. BYE VEIGAR.

"Oh hey Ahri, you're already seeing lots of pro play because your kit is incredibly powerful, HOW BOUT SOME BUFFS???"

Riot is a business. If anyone actually thinks that Riot team members don't start their meetings by saying "okay so how can we make more money" than you are:

  1. Never, ever been in business before
  2. laughably delusional

Every company I have ever been in, (and I've been in business development for a long time) has exactly this one single purpose. To make more money.

This is the most retarded statement I've ever read.

If Final Boss had not met its quota, they would have actually buffed Veigar, so more people would buy the skin.

Probably, their way of thinking is like this:

Final Boss not bought enough -> Nerf Veigar -> Buff him massively some patches later ("We listen to the community, here are the buffs") -> People now buy the skin cuz he is OP.
