How does Riot choose which skins get chromas?

From the FAQ: How will you choose future chroma packs? Any champion or skin could get chroma packs, and our criteria going forward will be guided by popularity, interest, and suitability but not mandated by any one of those things.

From an article:
What happened with Chromas? In an earlier Ask Riot, we answered why there haven’t been any Chromas lately, and now we’re happy to share another update. As part of our process to improve chromas, our first move was to go back to the basics. We wanted to make sure we really answered the following question: “Why would I, as a player, want Chromas?” Here’s the thing. I love skins and have a lot of them. But there are certain skins I always go back to. Arcade Miss Fortune is one of my favorite skins, and looking at what you guys are playing, it’s one of your favorites, too. And if I can play her in a rainbow of options, that sounds pretty cool to me. Chromas are meant to deepen your experience with a piece of content you already own, love, and play the shit out of. It’s that simple.
Next, how do we address your feedback? Player reactions towards chromas centered around bundling, aesthetics, and pricing, so that’s where we put the majority of our focus: We unpacked chromas so you can buy them individually, while still allowing you to buy them in bundles for a discount. We revamped color schemes and added patterns and textures. We priced chromas at 290 RP each, and we’re also introducing recurring IP sales that will take place twice a year. The first IP sale goes from August 25, 2016 to September 8, 2016 and includes all chromas launched before August 2016. During the IP sale, chromas will be sold individually for 2000 IP. We’re excited about these changes and are set on continually improving chromas and making them a fun feature for your favorite skins. We’re excited to hear what you think about these latest updates in the comments.
