Why do you give Gold and above Victorious skins but not the rest of the players?

Personally, that seems like you guys are biased towards the ones that have made it out of elo hell and completely forgotten those that are stuck in Bronze and Silver and can't get out because of your stupid matchmaking. Just like Championship skins get released every year to be sold, why can't Victorious ones be too?

You also are losing out on a lot of money that you could be getting if you let them be available for purchase. Butttt no, you give them to the rank that most of the majority of players can never get too.

Not fair, Riot. Not fair.

Edit: All of you posting comments saying it is fair and that I'm a child, blah blah. Stop being rude. It is not fair they get skins for being lucky enough to get to Gold while the rest of us can never get out of Bronze or Silver. That is being biased and nothing that you say will change that. So don't post negative or rude comments. I will downvote and report.

No.

If you didn't work hard enough to get to gold, then you don't get a skin. You'll still get an icon, but that's it. Or in other words: The reward reflects the work

If they gave them out to everyone then would they truly be rewarding?

  1. Why wouldn't they put special rewards for being above average? That's only logical in a competitive game.
  2. If they gave everybody the same rewards, there's no incentive to get any higher. You'd just log in and retrieve it and not play. If you don't play more, you won't spend as much (if any) money. If people don't stick around to play and spend, then they have failed as a business.
  3. If they did give you the rewards, then they'd have to make something new for higher tiers. Then the beggars would want those too. Where would you stop?

no, im in bronze and i think it would be stupid if anyone below gold got them its suppose to be an achievement that you worked hard to get to gold+ this is all a part of the "everybody is a winner" mentality. the way it should be and i hope it stays that way is that if your below gold you cant get it simple as that. and no not everybody is a winner in every game that can have a winner there will always be losers.

This isn't Little League. Everybody does not get a trophy.

Grind it out. No matter how bad the matchmaking is, if you're good enough you will eventually climb.

Your match history doesn't indicate that you're that bad of a player, but it does look like you play a hell of a lot of normal games. Start grinding it out now and you'll make it to Gold.

Before I type out everything thats wrong and/or right let me just say that I think you are a fairly decent player. I might also point out where you might go wrong in games but my question is would you listen or say "screw you you don't know shit"?

If you're going to say the latter I won't bother typing but if you want some advice, I can try to offer some.
