Is it possible to see skins awarded through achievements next season?

Hey everyone, I'm sure most players (any who buy a skin) are familiar with the simple binary process of getting a skin...Using RP. With season 5 coming up is it feasible that Riot could finally add a few skins (3 or 4) that you can only attain through achievements?

A good example would be a skin being awarded to you once you got a certain number of ranked pentakills.

Does anyone else have ideas as to how an achievement system with a small reward for dedicated players could be implemented?

As a side note we already have people who whine and whine and whine so most legacy skins were offered again at some point. Since Riot seems to be in favor of not leaving anyone out, why not create a system where there are no excuses for not earning a skin besides your own lethargy.

There's 5 achievement skins in the game, not counting RAF ones. All of them are tied to playing in certain seasons though.

Stuff like a certain number of pentakills in ranked is kinda sad for someone maining supportive champs. I've played since S1 and I haven't had a single penta in ranked. And I'm pretty sure less than 10 pentas that weren't in bot or ARAM games.

In theory achievements sound nice, but they'll always focus on some role or another. Which shouldn't happen. As such I would prefer this game to stay free of the disease that is achievements.

Just my 2 cents.

TL;DR Achievements are bad, mk?
