New client doesn't allow you to choose a skin right after you lock in unless you are last pick. Old client does. Please fix.
Edit: new client only allows you to pick a skin in last ten seconds b4 you get into game
I am able to as soon as I pick a champion. Even when i'm first pick.
Yeah, when I started to use the new client, it was a real head scratcher.
The new client looks "prettier" (match history page super ugly - all tabs really ugly - chat really ugly and clunky) but lost a lot of functions.
They just want you to not go AFK after you locked champion. They figured out that chosing skin is way more important for player than staying in champselect to communicate with the team. JK
pfft in the old client you could BUY a skin after you lock in your champ!
Is it not better this way?? Before if you were picking a champion for someone you couldn't see the list, and if you didnt know what you wanted to play it was difficult to think of what to play without seeing. And 10 seconds should be more than enough time to pick a skin.
most people will know what champions to pick without having to look at the list. For a lot of players you will have a handful of 5 or so champions per lane that you choose from, give or take. Its not difficult to remember 25 champions if this holds true for you. At the same time, if youre one of those looking to get off a good team comp or counter a lane every time, thats dumb. You should be picking someone youre comfortable in that matchup or a blind matchup, if they can synergize with the team then even better.
I agree.

Actually, that kinda bugs me too. Especially if I have a new skin from hextech or something. Takes me like 2 or 3 games before I remember to speed equip it at countdown. :/ Not like it's a big issue, but it is slightly irritating in that moment if you forget.
Really? I am able to select a skin as soon as I lock my champ.
I'm able to pick a skin right after I lock my champ. I'm unranked so IDK if it's the same.
i know all you bronzies and silveries dont care
but being able to look at the champion roster is helpful in creating a synergistic team
