Can we get skins for champions like , , etc? They've gone a long time without any skin love.

Riot has mentioned they are looking into Illaoi , but we just don't know when something will actually come. Yorick did have his update awhile back so I'm sure he's going to have one sometime this year or early next as they have been trying to give most updated champions a new skin soon after said update.

Remember, Riot is a company that needs to make money.

This game is free to play for a reason, don't forget.

Yes but these champions have not seen absolutely any skin love for a long time. Illaoi was released in 2015 and hasnt seen a skin since, and Yoricks last skin was I think in 2011 (woah.)

I dunno, wouldn't you count Yorick's update? Sure, he didn't get any new skins technically, but the amount of manpower that went into all that...?

Requesting is fine and all, but I wouldn't hold my breath. Just try to understand, that's all.

They've specifically stated they try to give skins to Champions who were just updated, shortly after being updated even. Even by those standards Yorick is long overdue

Huh, go figure.

tristana got an 1820 skin within the year of her update

And what does that have to do with the price of tea in China?

Lots of variables present. Tristana's more popular than Yorick, for instance. Their VGU are not isolated variables that affect whether or not they get skins... There's a lot of reasons that go into why certain champions get skins over others, far beyond what I've suggested so far.

Meh, Illoai can wait

Yorick hasn't had a new skin since 2013

AurelionSol also could use one.... maybe dark star.

Illaoi was released before Aurelion...?

Yes, but I actually see Aurelion far more than Illaoi, I think Yorick should get a new skin before ANYONE else tho, even before this new Yi skin in all honesty.

Also Illaoi just isn't even that good, never really has been.

Might be wrong, but pretty sure Yorick hasn't had a new skin since release. He comes from a time when Champions were released with two skins and I'm pretty sure he only has two skins.
