Lee Sin's PP splash art lied to us. I don't get my hopes up during the summer skins time of year anymore. item 3070 Orianna

AceGeoJul 19, 20185 votes

She's not popular. A lot of resources go into making a skin and it's not her time yet. Be patient. I waited how long for a Yorick skin, so you can relax.

Vhan8765Jul 19, 201814 votes

I was being a bit mellow dramatic on purpose, but compared to someone who was actively waiting for a Yorick skin, I have no right to. You, my good sir, are an inspiration to us all! [poppy-wink]

AceGeoJul 21, 20186 votes

Oh, haha. After reading my comment again it might have come off a little too strong. I hope you knew what I really meant. I agree it would be fun to have Ori finally get her pool party skin. Even though I haven't really played her ever, I think many people would buy it just for fun to play her again. Many free skins that I receieve get me to play different champs quite a bit and that's really fun for me since I've been playing for so long. Have a nice day, my friend.

BlazehhhJul 19, 201860 votes

I was secretly hoping for Pool Party Aurelion Sol with coconuts orbiting him or something

SenyainJul 20, 201819 votes

Both of these sound amazing, Riot is really....dropping the ball...ill see myself out...

Capn GingerbeardJul 19, 201824 votes

I don't even play Orianna, but logged into upvote. Though I think getting killed by a beach ball would be embarrassing.

Heinous BearclawJul 20, 201818 votes

Since we're on the topic of skins, we need Pool Party Pyke too!

Give him an olympic swimmer's outfit - a swim cap on his bald head, some goggles on his sunken eyes, and a racing speed suit. Then switch his dagger for a leaf skimmer.

Not sure if other elements of his outfit should also be replaced, or just removed. Could switch his cloak for a beach towel, and maybe change out his bandana mask for a snorkel. Not sure though.

ALL FLASHJul 19, 201840 votes

Been a while since I've needed to log on here, but I couldn't help it after seeing this, I had to say something.

Chroma wards?... Riot come on already. No effort put into those wards what so ever. You didn't even bother to give them different poses, gestures, or anything.

Wipeout should be looking like he's wiping out, and the hang loose should be giving the hang loose hand gesture. Put some love into your work, otherwise it just comes off as making a quick buck.

Support and love the company regardless of all the negativity going on this year but you're making it really difficult to defend you at all with half-assed work like these chroma wards that are exactly the same in every way except the color and name which don't match the ward at all.

AykayHenJul 19, 201838 votes

release kayn and ornn before zoe zoe complained about constantly gets more love from rito we live in a society

XarvianJul 21, 201810 votes

can we talk about kled who is significantly older than both those champs STILL not one skin

Darith72Jul 19, 201835 votes

So they put Marksmen as a class completely out of meta, and then throw an ADC orb at me, and expect me to buy it. It's just distasteful irony at that point. I guess I'm lucky that I already own the skins that I ever wanted, but still: Don't market as if the game supports each role's uniqueness when its already betrayed one of said roles. [sg-ahri-3]

ClarítyJul 20, 20189 votes

And jungle gets betrayed each year with extremely dynamic changes that hurt many jungle players yet they don't complain as adcs after one change to them.

Monstrous YiJul 19, 201832 votes

Wow 640 RP for a chroma ward? It's not even 100% chroma, cmonBruh.

KagameJul 19, 201827 votes

Can Aurelion sol or Urgot get a skin? Zoe is one of the newest champions on the rift and has just received a new skin after being released 8 months ago while Aurelion a champion that was released in 2016 still only has the skin he was released with or Urgot someone who hasn't gotten a skin since battlecast which was released in 2012. There needs to be some sort of skin equality because if Xayah and Rakan can already have 1 (non worlds) skin after launch and Aurelion, Ivern, or Kled can't get one I don't know. Obviously it's resources and money to make skins but I liked that you mentioned the upcoming Urgot skin I just want there to be more skin diversity instead of seeing a champion who is newer to the game or has recently gotten a skin getting a new skin I want to see champions who haven't seen much love get some love I want to see something like a dark star skin for Rek'sai, a dragon rider Kled skin, A tin man Ivern skin, or track and field Xin Zhao. I also really liked the time you worked with the community to create a skin for Illaoi and I really want to see more collaborations like that in the future.

The Turret GodJul 19, 20185 votes

u have to understand that they release these skins for champs that are actually played bc that way people buy them and then they earn money. i want a damn heimer skin but, you know, not hoping for a miracle.

MagearnaJul 19, 20188 votes

Taliyah is played a crap ton and she's only getting a skin because of Samsung winning Worlds. If not Aurelion, she's definitely a contender for a new skin.

ZidarynJul 20, 201827 votes

Aurelion Sol AurelionSol is already confirmed for getting a new skin soon. [slayer-jinx-unamused] is getting tired of hearing this same thing,

Darkhero1771Jul 19, 201819 votes

instead of blue ess can we get some orange ess as reward?

Vhan8765Jul 19, 201816 votes

Whoa, this is like, 3 events all within rather close proximity of each other. That's pretty rad, Riot; right on! It's nice being informed about these events early on as well. Glad to see the missions are still really versatile, they're a real highlight of these events now. In my opinion, events don't always need to be flashy, they just need to feel fun. I like it, this is good stuff; feels chill, feels nice. Yeah man, yeah. Groovy, bro.

Sell an organ or your house and buy them [slayer-jinx-wink]

Last GunfighterJul 19, 201811 votes

These bundles just keep getting bigger and bigger. Can't even justify buying them anymore

thehappiningJul 19, 201811 votes

Of course, Zoe gets a skin before Ornn, Kayn, Camille, Ivern, Kled, and Aurelion Sol. Because Riot doesn't play favorites as shown by the fact that they released a "hard champ with a high skill cap" that was overpowered and instead of fixing it fast like other champs the let her be op because she was a money maker. Then after they were FINALLY getting ready to nurf her, they release the smallest nurf of all time to a stupidly broken champ just to BM there community first. Classic Riot.

MrStealYoGanksJul 20, 201810 votes

You forgot Taliyah! She's probably the most fitting champ that fits the bill for a pool party skin, she surfs on a rock...

HandschuheJul 19, 201810 votes

Where is pool Party Braum? Come on man, I would kill to get a skin with braum in a 20's beachside suit!

Her last skin was more than a year ago?

MrStealYoGanksJul 20, 201811 votes

Taliyah still doesn't get a Pool Party skin when her animations are literally perfect for one, she "surfs" on a rock right now...Caitlyn has enough skins as is.
