why do so many of the older-ish champions get forgotten like kled or kayn they havent seen much light i dont see the point giving garen a new skin since he has 2 nice ones and like 5 others and darius has a mythical and a legendary skin already my question stands why do some champions not have skins since realease atleast 1 more :<
webstar19951 votesKled and Kayn are new champs. Darius came out WAYYYYYY before them. Darius is also played a lot more than Kled. Also Garen is an OG champ with a high play rate and win rate. This is how RIOT makes money DUHHHHHHHHHHH
Govy1 votesthat is correct but a lot of people play kled and kayn i can safely say i see way more kleds and kayns than darius and garens DUhhHhHh not only in my games litterally everywhere

Look at playrates. Darius gets played the most. Then Garen and Kayn are close but Garen is ahead. Kled has a ever low playrate.
redniwediS1 votesIt was explained a while back that the skins team doesn't have a quota to fill, and doesn't typically go around trying to make sure every champ has a skin.
What they do is think about cool ideas and then turn them into skins. This is why we can have something like Lux getting three good skins in a row, while other champions like Zac take forever. It's a philosophy that makes sense if you realize it's there, but doesn't necessarily feel great for players who enjoy the champions that are not being focused on.
If they don't have an idea for a skin for Kled or Kayn then they don't make a skin for Kled or Kayn.
Govy1 votesi.... dont have anything to say
great point
but im still sad about older champs
somehow i missed thatabout the explanation
redniwediS1 votesThey said this three or four years ago, so I'm not even sure how to find it at this point.
Still, times have changed recently and they have started going around making sure older champions do have something new (looking at you Shen) so I'd say it's only a matter of time before champs like Kled, Kayn, Ivern, and the like have something.

its also about efford neccessary to make those skins.
champions like zac, kled, yorick, azir etc are more difficult to make skins for, because they either have complicated or multiple models (like yorick himself, his ghouls and his maiden), that would have to be reskinned.
in comparison to that, lux is very easy to do.
