What is the skin favoritism? You guys give the same champions the same amount of skins every single year. Annie, Ahri, Ezreal, Tryn, Draven, and other champions get a skin every single year. Half of these champions already have 1350 and plus skins and you still give them the 1350 and plus skins. Did Ezreal really need to be part of the Arcade skin series when he has Pulsefire Ezreal skin that is high? This concept could have been used on another champion than Ezreal, who already has a 1350 plus skin.

There are so many champions in this game that has no skins. There are so many champions in this game that are only allowed to have 750 and 900 RP skins while other ones can have all of the high-end and good looking skins. This favoritism is ridiculous.

Waiting for a slow and lazy working update and balance team to work on a champion is part of the problem, but there are champions that do not have these problems and continue to get neglected. It sucks that one lazy department has to effect the work of another department. Yeah, I am calling the update and balance team lazy and slow. The art department makes good quality skins, but they have to work within the parameters of a slow working and lazy balance and update team. I mean . . . . this was their opportunity to give us a great skin for a champion that really needs it . . . and they cannot do so because of the balance and update team.

The Ezreal skin looks terrible and it looks like Sora from KH.

Skins in general take 6 to 8 months to create. There all sorts of skins in different stages of development and there's going to be issues during development some may cause a skin to be delayed for years. Project Katarina was supposed to debute as Cyver Katarina 4 years ago but whatever issues it had delayed it. So Relax and Play Leagues

Popularity = money. Of course a new Ahri or Ezreal skins going to sell/why do you think popular champs get the most skins (Even if they already have 5+).

You got to remember there a business and this reflects into a lot of there game choices.

It's about the money.

Think about it if they release skins s for their most popular champs how many would buy them ??

Now imagine if they release skins for champs none plays like aatrox or zac. How many kids would buy this skin?

Can you imagine how much they've made on thier project skins this patch? Now imagine if one if those project champs were Varus. How few people would buy that skin ?

So it's just business dude. They can make a lot of money if they release skins for popular champs that everyone will buy. Why waste time and money and making skins for unpopular champs?
