Skins

Hi people! I know the technology is evolving and RIOT's ideas are evolving too and that's good, but that makes the skins too expensive. If you look at the latest skins, they are all 1350 rp or higher except for Blood Moon Eve and Conqueror Varus. Plus, there are many champions which have just expensive skins like Jinx, Jhin or Taliyah. I think the money shouldn't stop us from buying a skin for the champion we like so what I suggest is a 520 rp skin line (like Commando for ex). They can be bounded to a cartoon or comic or maybe a story like Pizza Delivery Sivir and Birdio are. Thanks for your attention!

Jinx has a 975 RP skin, Mafia Jinx. The thing is, higher quality skins are more requested (at least it seems so). People want the particles and effects of the skin to match the fantasy of it.

For example, it feels pretty awkward if you got a skin like the new Dark Water Vladimir, but instead of water he still uses his red blood particles. It just doesn't match his pirate fantasy that much. People are already feeling disturbed by epic skins not changing the quotes, making what the champion says awkward in contrast to what the champion is supposed to represent in the skins.

An example for that would be Arclight Yorick (servant of a holy light goddess, talking about death and agony all the time) or Starguardian Syndra. So it makes sense that they are releasing more high quality skins, since they are requested to match the fantasy the people are expecting for that champion skin.

If we want more "cheap" skins coming up in the future, then we have to come up with more skin themes requested, which match the champion well enough to not require major particle changes. Personally, I hope they add some Mafia skins in the future. It is simply, it is classic.
