Skins

Can we decide to sacrifice a few updates after the assassin update to give the newer champs skins. I hate how some of my mains even though they are really old having few skins, though I like to collect skins and some are really cool compared to others lets be real this year each champ released only has one skin, maybe two and I know this is all part of the process but like even bard still only has two... lets be real I know some of us have come to absolutely love the newer champs and they are mains. It just sucks when your main has one skin or two if lucky...

Different teams are responsible for those tasks (so stopping one wouldn't necessarily speed up the other).

The balance of the game is more important than cosmetic changes to a few champions.

Newer champions get 1 skin on release and champions usually never get 2 skins per year, only 1 skin per year with a lot of champions currently in the exceptional boat of skipping a few seasons without skins ( Zyra Malzahar Evelynn Swain ) Another problem with the newer champions is how much more mechanically and much more advanced in particles they are compared to older champions, making textures for them a lot harder and time consuming meaning the skins will take longer. (it took us almost 3 months for SKT Azir after he was announced! granted we had other SKTs but they didn't change drastically and had a base model to work with.)

We're lucky we got SG Kindred as soon as we were able to.
