Why doesn't League utilize the communities ideas more?

Now I'm wondering....there are so many hard worked on concepts for skins...and they are all so good....why not use them?

Let's not talk about surprise party fiddle, or bunny riven, pool party ziggs, the zombie azir thing. Were on the boards long before riot announced them/created them

You do realize that one of the pictures you used was a community idea that Riot made into a skin, right? Like "Unicorn Hecarim" doesn't look at all like Arcade Hecarim to you?

If you make the community more pleased you get more money, it's the most obvious business logic.

Probably because most community suggestions are weaboo trash. Sure there are a few gems here and there, but dumpster diving is pretty nasty so nobody wants to do it.

Riot only has so much time. They do the concepts that they think show the most promise. It isn't just boards that they are selling these to, you have to remember. Things that have international appeal are much better, so it isn't just about the high upvotes on our NA threads.
