Reminder to Riot that we haven't had anything big for a female champ in a long time

Last female champ was Jinx, a year ago Last female Legendary quality or higher skin was last Halloween Last female VU was Sivir a year ago, and that went...beavertoothfully.

Other than the recent massive Sona nerfs and the a few admittedly decent skins like Arcade MF and Riot Kayle, there hasn't been much for the ladies of LoL.

They already aren't allowed to have female non humanoid champs or skins that aren't just costume changes (make champs get to be robots, sea monsters, and predators, female champs just get to have changes of clothes, maybe with the occasional sexy water spirit or stripper cop) the least we could do is throw them a bone with half decent reworks and VUs. How long have Soraka and Poppy been waiting for reworks? Evelynn and Morgana for VUs? Heck we don't even know what female yordles are supposed to look like yet, because poppy and Trist have been retconned meglings for close to four years :/.

What does Ironstylus even do these days?

So, I can't really agree with you on this. Female champs far outnumber male champs in the game if I am not mistaken, Female champs overall have more skins and get most of the really cool ones (Popstar Ahri, Arcade MF, Atlantean Syndra). Also plenty of female champs this year have gotten skins even if they haven't been legendary or ultimate. (There are only 2 ultimate skins currently). Nidalee got a rework this year already as well, and other champs have waited far longer than Soraka and Poppy for reworks (Sion and Urgot). Not to mention the touching up of some of Nidalee's skins and the board wide splash art updates.

I think its more about the slow champion release... Jinx was a year ago alright but how many champions where actually released since then? But I do support the message.

Why the Ironstylus part?

I want to point out that I dont quite disagre with Sona getting "massive nerfs".
Also, female champions get plenty of serious skins too and saying that River Spirit is a "sexy" type of skin reqiures a bit of bias (not that its not a sexy skin)

But Im all for new content for female champions
