More new champions, skins and summoner icons?

I started playing LOL this July so I didn't have the opportunity to play when champions were released weekly and monthly during the first 2 seasons. I understand that there are many champions in LOL right now but many are not played obviously we use the champions that give us the best chance to win.

  1. Maybe one new champ a month is asking for too much but I think 10-12 new champions for this season isn't too much to ask. You could then put 2 new champions in each role category so everyone gets something new.
  2. Skins seem to not come out as much while many champions have only 1 skin to select from like lissandra, aatrox, zed, rengar, khazix etc. They wouldn't have to be legendary or amazing skins but something new for 520-975. I feel like more new skins for champions like these and current popular champions would be something new and fresh.
  3. Summoner icons while don't have much too do with in game flow I feel like adding summoner icons which are given by getting certain achievements instead of buying them would be nice. For example getting 100 wins in ranked que with one champ you could get an icon for that champ or playing 500 ranked games etc. This could apply for normals like hitting lvl 30 or playing different gamemodes besides 5v5 summoners rift. While holiday ones are cool they dont really stand out as everyone has a very good shot on getting them. I really like LOL but I feel i missed out on all the fun like new champions and skins and different icons through seasons 1 and 2 and early 3. Implementing 10 new champs, releasing new skins and different ways besides holidays to get new icons would spice up LOL and make it feel like it did in the early days of LOL. But this is just my personal opinion hopefully some other people feel the same way.

it was actually Riot's intention to put out more champions and skins then they did last season (season 3) but thye ran into issues in development (Lucian) and this delayed them significantly. as for skins - Riot has significantly upped their game as far as skins are concerned - now i've heard several people in the community complaining about the lack of lower tiered skins (Personally i don't see the appeal for skins with just a different color) nor do i really get exactly why Riot has decided to not produce anymore of these 520 skins - but i understand the desire to put a quality product and i'm guessing that it has to do with both that desire and cost efficiency

me i'm happy with the way Riot's been running the game and i have no problem with any of their decisions and am generally pleased with others.

that said - more icons would be cool
