The Ecdysiast2 votesBuy all his other skins and you might. Riot has no incentive to make skins for unpopular champions when their fans aren't shelling out the cash to prove it's profitable.
Stars Shaper1 votesThing is: Aurelion Sol isn't Popular ---> Popular champions sell skins ---> Aurelion Sol gets nerfed each time he gets picked in LCS.

Yep. His design is so heavily geared towards being effective while being absolutely the least fun. And you forgot the last step --> Aurelion Sol gets less popular and the cycle continues.
It's really a shame that they went so far to make him unique but messed it up.
Stars Shaper1 votesYet he is extremely punishable, but the pro players seem to have forgotten how to play divers and would rather challenge Aurelion Sol team in a common teamfight, making it his perfect battlefield.

It's not that they've forgotten, it's that divers are far less effective when the opposing team has its peeling coordinated.
Stars Shaper1 votesThat's true.
Bultz2 votesIt's funny to me because he is unpopular because riot fucked his kit up and made it a niche pick. In turn, the most hyped up champion is never played, meaning no skin for him. Lmao man did riot fuck this one up.
ShirukuSama1 votesMaybe make a skin so good that it'll get people to play him :v

That's a far bigger risk than just making another 1350 skin for a popular champion, unfortunately. That's just how it goes when a champion's design is effective but boring.
