Now, I'm not usually one to complain about a shiny new skin, although my wallet might. I've quite liked Star Guardian Lux, and I'm a big fan of the Warring Kingdoms skins, but it seems like a lot of champs who already have a hand-full of good skins while other champions still only have their basic secondary. Some of these champions haven't been out for very long, granted. However, there are plenty of champs on the roster who have only one (not counting the secondary that everyone gets) or none at all.

This just makes me wonder "Why do these champs deserve a new skin?" Because they're more popular at present? Because they're a fan favorite? Or because it's been requested millions of times?

If it's the latter of the three then I'd just like to point out a few people who I feel deserve some love: Atrox, Lisandra, Poppy, Rumble, Quinn, Rek'Sai, Rengar, Ryze, Tarik, Viktor, Yasuo, Yorick and Zyra.

Also, before anyone jumps the gun, I'd like to point out a few things!

Firstly, I know some of those champs have "Team Skins" which don't count. A skin should be something appropriate to the champion, or something creative/amusing, not used as a walking billboard.

Secondly, some of these champs might have skins that are now locked in the vault and are no longer visible on their profile page. Lets not fool ourselves, most of them suck.

Finally, I'm aware that a few of the above champs did, in fact, get a new skin within the last few months. Honestly? I really don't care. Have you seen how many skins Teemo has? ...no, seriously, go look, I'll wait. I KNOW, RIGHT?! and some champions don't even have a third as many.

If you're trying to make champs more popular how about giving some to the people who have barely any cool skins to call their own?

Of course, this is just my opinion! But I want to know what the other summoners think as well! Let me know what you think, maybe drop a suggestion of your own for some neat skin ideas for champs who need them?

Personally, I think it's high-time we got a Debonair Zac skin. I mean, c'mon, the champion says it all. "I should get a suit!" Riot, make this a real thing, plz?

Riot basically focuses on popular/LCS champions since they know there will be max profits.

Poppy Really does need a new skin and a rework but what good skin concept ideas are out there so far (I have not seen one skin concept and I'm not saying I haven't seen any good ones but I mean like I haven't really seen anything for Poppy, I might have just not looked hard enough..) But since Rito focuses on champions mostly used in the LCS they should just make a poll for the people who want a skin for the unpopular champions. (Just saiyan, Rito should make a skin for Ahri that is like a schoolgirl skin.. I'm sorry..
