Riot is about to start making money off something they didn't want to make money on.
I'm talking about basic recolors. Skins such as King
Nottingham
and Phantom
. They were all originally 390 RP, but eventually removed because were basic recolors.
Sound familiar? Because now Riot is doing what anyone with Photoshop can do making basic recolors and selling them for 590 RP for 3, even though you'll only use one. And honestly, why would anyone buy these when they could just get a custom skin 10x cooler, for free. The only downside being that you're the only one seeing it. But seriously, if I own Dragon Fist Lee Sin (which I do) I'm not gonna pay another 590 rp to make it look slightly different. I already paid to look different once, not doing it again.
Seriously, its fucking lazy. Stop trying to make money of basic recolors and sell the damn things for like, 2000 ip each. If you're going to say that it's quality enough to release 3 for 590 might as well bring back all the Legacy skins, fuck it, lets bring back Rusty Blitzcrank while we're at it.
And Garen. Really? He has a free skin who is going to pay money to get 3 crappy recolors. It literally looks like somebody opened Photoshop and used the paint bucket to change stuff to a different color.
