Top lane got skipped out on AGAIN for the ultimate skin

And instead it was given to another ADC champion, whom already have quite a ton of skins along with an arcade themed one MissFortune

So now we have

Adc - Pulsefire Ezreal Jungle - Spiritguard Udyr Support - DJ Sona Mid - Elementalist Lux Adc - Gun Goddess Miss Fortune

What about those top laners that have been waiting for skins for years?

Shen This guy is a prime example, he has few skins, has dominated pro play for years and a top laner. Irelia About to get a VGU and is a well known top laner with her latest skin beingi n 2015 Garen Garen is one of League's poster champs, and although he might not be a prime candidate, I still think he deserves it more than MF Aatrox Could had been excellent with his VGU MonkeyKing Seems like Riot doesn't care about this guy in terms of balance and skins

And also these top laners deserve it more than MF Gangplank Akali Singed DrMundo Renekton Jayce

My biggest bother is the Shen one, when he was such a good candidate and also after the Shen mains were cheated with the eternium thing

What exactly do you mean with "Again"? It's the first time top gets skipped.

At least we got the first hextech skin ey?

Though I agree an ultimate sin for Shen would have been better. On the other hand, this MF skin is just bad... I'm sorry but it's just bad. 4 chromas you can choose from with some different weapon design and voice overs isn't on the same level like Sona. Which can change the ingame music for everyone. Ezreal who evolves through the game.

It doesn't hold off to the standard other ultimates have. So I guess we dodged a bullet that top isn't getting the worst ultimate? I guess no ultimate is worse or as bad but hey...

We got the first hextech.... and damn that's a badass one

Edit: yeahyeahyeahyeah aight aight I got we are third!!

We still have the most badass one!! It's something!

Listen friend. Im sorry but every single champion you mentioned isnt going to get an ultimate skin with the exception of maybe Jayce.

Ultimate skins are 100% all about the money and every single champ you mentioned doesnt have a decent playrate. If you want a top lane ultimate your choices are: Fiora Riven Maokai and if you are lucky Gangplank Jayce or Rumble

Those are the only champions with decent playrates year-round. Which is what is important for an ultimate. However if ANY of those champions got an ultimate excluding Rumble, there wouldve been complaints anyway.

There really is no win solution.

agree. last 10 patches 9 adc got skins. mf had 2 skins lux had 3 skins. riot loves bot lane more than any other lane. i guess they make skins based on profits. shen isnt a profitable champion thats why we havent seen his skin. champs like yasuo, master yi , lux constantly gets skin.

Honestly all I want at this point is a Wukong skin with a new VO and animations. nothing special, just something that actually gives him some fun new lines to listen too and a dance that isn't just him doing cartwheels.

Hey You know what ELSE they could have done for an ultimate?

An actual time/Money worthy version of Dragon master Swain :v

Udyr can top. Doesnt happen often but he can. If you were to take every champ with an ultimate skin on one team every position could be filled competently. Unless i miscounted.

Because MF gained a huge popularity after her preseason Meta and many new and old players mained her/made her mastery 7 and SG MF was the best selling SG skin , it's all about business dude
