so with Elderwood Ahri coming to PBE I feel like I should mention that that will be her 11th skin meanwhile there are a plethora of really great concepts for skins all over these discussion boards that people would want to see, hell Ornn only has one skinOrnn but before he even got thought of for anything Zoe got a new skinZoe. There are a lot of champions that could use some new skins seem to get left behind so they can give more skins to champs who already have a bloated mass of skins already for them just look at Lux Lux

hell just for an example of a different champ that could have used an Elderwood skin look at Kindred Kindred https://www.deviantart.com/vegacolors/art/Elderwood-Kindred-Concept-Page-587554881

this concept actually looks really good though may need a bit of tweaking is a hell of a lot better done then then the bootleg chroma they gave Ahri

Money is why

Why not? 5 unpopular champions got skins , 1 popular champion has to be there to sell the skins , otherwise it would be a loss to the company Why did you decide to post that now? it's been already discussed a lot

riot is releasing skins for 5 unpopular champions. Releasing 1 skin they know will sell well is a pretty good business decision, especially seeing she does fit the theme as well.

I think we have all come to realize that there is not equity when it comes to skins, much to the chagrin of many of us. Ahri players buy skins, simple as that. Kaisa and Irelia frequently get new skins for the same reason.

Elderwood Kindred, Rek'sai or Ornn would've looked so good

to be honest, that skin is hot as fk, I have a star gaurdian ahri, didnt buy the kda but I kinda want the elderwood ahri but yes, I hated it too, it really upsets me or us that riot only cares about ... of cause like we all do, understandable, but they thought a gorgeous pretty can fool us around is almost arrogant in some way. They knew community will be mad 100% yet they still released it, because they knew the fact that everybody will like it and everybody will buy it. After a while of complaining, it will be silence again. Sure, marketing, I get it, but this company is dying by doing so, since not the skin teams, balancing teams are doing the same.

To be fair 4 unpopular champions are getting skins this patch so it makes sense to have a Ahri skin in with them. But Kindred should of gotten a Elderwood skin for sure.| Or Ornn.
