Then surely they can re-release Riot Singed with compensation.

They technically didnt go against their word. Plus they did compensate, not with RP especially since i would assume most people who got Championship Riven originally got it through the Code Card handed out back in Worlds 2012. Granted it was also stated by Riot that any skin released in the Store has a potential to come back to the store no matter their category. But they would be treated similarly, that doesn't mean they are treated all the same. Going to edit my post since i just looked it up and it seems like the skin was available in the Store. So who knows. I would assume the main reason why CS Riven was re-released was because of its popularity. I would assume the Singed skin isnt popular enough as much as CS Riven was. I would say if people want it and show an interest in the skin to speak up.

Lol. They said they'd do very certain things. A refund was one of them. Many of us who didn't go to world's got it through paying for it.

They said 4 skins would never be released again. Urfwick, rusty blitz, Riot singed, and CS Riven.

So...?

And times change, Rules get changed and they are trying to give the people what they want. That was the whole point of the Limited Edition to Legacy skin exchange we got a couple years ago. Now that we have Worlds 2016 and have a full team it was only right to re-release CS Riven. And i feel they gave us a lot more than we needed.

This doesnt mean we wont ever see Riot Singed. Just try and ask, make a petition, try and talk to a Rioter. Claiming its never going to be re-release is irrelevant because they had already changed their stance on that. We could see those skins again, about the only Skins they cannot outright re-release are the PAX skins as those "might" be under contract with PAX. any other type of skin Limited Edition or not is up for grabs!

You and I both know "Times and rules have changed" is a bullshit excuse. When they changed Limited skins to Legacy skins, they still left those skins as Limited.

They can't go back on their word about just one thing and then laugh and say the other things still apply to those rules.
