Disappointed with Snowdown Shop...

BakedLotion·Dec 17, 2015·10 votes·1,479 views

I got two skins each for TF and Lee Sin, and I already have skins for both of them. And the other two are lucian and fizz, which i have skins for also... Wtf?? Can you not give me the same champion twice, champs I already have tons of skins for, and even worse, for two champions?? Why did they decide it was a good idea to give someone 2 deals on the same champion, for two champions?

The only skin that I would even consider buying is the one that's 20% off LMFAO.

My Snowdown shop was pretty accurate; I have all champs but only play women so six lady skins was appropriate. I got two MF skins (40% off Captain is tempting) but I already have Arcade so I'd probably never use it. Also Irelia, Leona, Annie, and Morgana... sadly I have ideal skins for all of them already. (I got the Annie skin anyway because 70% off is k.) Was hoping for Blood Moon Elise, hah.

Honestly I think they purposely give you champions you already have skins for, or just give u a repeat for a champion you dont play.

For mine, I have three volibear skins, two jinx skins, and a tristana one.

There's very little variation, I was super hyped, and let down, it's a really nice idea that riot came up with, but I havent played volibear in so long, if I wanted a skin for him, I would've gotten one. I don't one volibear skin, let alone three that the snowdown shop has provided me.

3 of my skins are for champs i dont own and don't play champs similar to them lol

BakedLotionDec 17, 20151 votes

So fucking rigged. Everyone has atleast one repeat... Hyped it up so much just to let everyone be disappointed.

For the people that say "atleast they gave you sales!!!!" No... They gave you sales for something you basically already had. I'd rather have the regular 50% skin sales that come up every week. Ty.

You != everyone. Maybe they saw you liked those champs and offered you those skins for that reason, you even get to pick between two.

I own a skin for every champion here and I like the skin I own much more than the ones being sold to me (except for Snowday Singed, I like that as much as SSW) http://i.imgur.com/HWlV4It.png

I got all crap skins for champs I own except for Project yas.

Now I love its 30% off (still over 950 RP tho) except that it was just on sale last month, and now its going on sale next month for 50% off.

Now 4/5 skins I already owned ATLEAST one skin for said champ, 1 that I truely would love, but why buy it now when i can wait few more days for 20% more off?

and wtf is up with the 70% skins almost always being 520?

It could be worse. You could have rolled Challenger Ahri and then not be able to buy it.

Apparently the skin offers you get are for champions that are like the ones that you play (Makes sense, so people don't complain that their discounts are for champions they don't like). And it sounds like you got discounts for champions that you like to play, after all, you bought skins for them.

So why is this so outrageous a circumstance?

The champs i got were the bottom 50 percent of my mastery point totals Why would i want multiple skins for the same champion anyway? I already have like 2 for each of them from mystery..

Understood.

Because that's everyone else wants? They love the champion so they like all the skins and like having all these different variations of their beloved champion. Why wouldn't you is the question to be asked here. I'm trying to understand here, like, What do you think skins are for? I do mean "everyone else". You are the odd one out here, dude. You are literally the only person I have ever heard of who thinks that way. Not just in League, I mean with any video game.

Then read all of the other posts. NO ONE wants multiple skins for champions they own. It's simply a waste of money. There's always gonna be that one skin that's superior to the other.

That's like saying "oh i like this bookbag. Might as well buy every single color there is." No. You buy one that you like the most.

"NO ONE wants multiple skins for champions they own." That's obviously false; why even write that? You don't even have to look to see people with multiple skins, that they have swapped between according to their preference for that game. "It's simply a waste of money." Skins are a waste of money! They are cosmetic only and the skin concept was a thing that was given out absolutely, completely free as a bonus just for the benefit of the player. Yet people buy skins anyway, people spend hundreds on a Free-to-Play game, even even if it is a "waste". " 'That's like saying "oh i like this bookbag. Might as well buy every single color there is.' " That is a utility purchase; your analogy does not follow. Skins are a cosmetic so you want to use something else that is cosmetic, so lets use Cosmetics.

Do women who like and use lipstick, eyeshadow, etc. buy multiple colors and shades? Yes. Yes, they do.

They buy it because theres different outfits that match with different colors. That's not the case in league lmao. You don't see people saying "oh ill just go buy this skin just in case I play howling abyss!!!"

And it was an exaggeration. I'm sorry if you can't notice stuff like that, okay? Let me know when u find a majority that buys multiple skins for a champion, and isn't from mystery gifts. Oh wait, you can't. Cause most sane people only have 2 skins for their favorite champion. And like I said, read all the other posts. Everyone is disappointed with the constant repeats in champions. Not only me. Quit sounding like I'm the only one with my opinion. There's some guy with 5 Nasus skins in his shop. Does it look like he's happy?

" You don't see people saying "oh ill just go buy this skin just in case I play howling abyss!!!" " Actually, I have.

"And it was an exaggeration." Exaggeration or not; it's also an analogy. An analogy that doesn't follow and is false. Your argument from this analogy is consequently wrong and no amount of "I was just exaggerating" when that's pointed out to you will change that.

"There's some guy with 5 Nasus skins in his shop." Like your analogy, that is an entirely different issue and you know it.
