Can We Focus On Making Skins For Those Who Have Hardly Any?

New skins coming out all the time, but they are usually for champs that already have enough. Why not make more for those who only have 1-3 skins?

I know Wu has a handful, but many of them are old and the only new one sucks. I've wanted a good new wu skin for a while now. That or release Underworld this year so I can buy it at least.

Radiant wu is a pretty badass skin.

I own every Wukong skin and he's one of my favorite champions, and I think Radiant Wu is great.

Why do you dislike it?

The champs that have few skins typically do so for a reason. Zac is pretty mush the posterboy for this, taking 27 months from the release of his first non-release skin. Turns out making skins for Zac is a huge endeavor. If your champion has been out for a while and has very few skins, chances are that champ is a pain in the ass to make skins for and likely quite unpopular as well.

I think its partly due to

  1. Zac skins are like basically improved chroma's
  2. I've heard that his animations are a bitch to do 3.not the easiest model to work with i must say

Been playing since S3 and my main Swain has yet to receive a 4th skin, but ekko gets his 3rd in probably record timing. On the bright side, they finally gave my 2nd main Taric a 4th skin after nearly 3 seasons of play.

Nope, they said they gave up on it after I waited 2 years for it. Bummer.

Unless there was a recent change, it's not cancelled so much as postponed. Not slotted for 2016, obviously, but likely to come when Riot, you know, actually puts the effort into fixing their game rather than adding more problems to it. (Reworking people who they feel need it. Even if it only brings me pain and suffering. Cough, Vlad and Mord.)

Hi. Welcome to League. What is making Riot more money. Skins for rarely picked champions, or skins for popular/meta champions?

Hell, look at Ekko. Very popular pick, got skins very quickly after his release as compared to others.

If you feel Riot should focus more on skins on less popular champions, then have people stop buying the popular skins. But that ain't gonna happen, so Rito will go to where the money is.

to be fair, a lot of the champions who already have a bunch of skins (mostly the older ones) dont have high quality skins.

star guardian lux is the first skin for her that actually looks good for example.

on the other hand, i dont think we didnt really need more teemo, morgana, tristana, annie or veigar skins. they already have a bunch of really good skins. riot is overdoing it with those champions.
