would be nice to have new skins for champions that barely have skins instead giving skins to the same champions..for example lux,darius,yasou,and irelia.Those are samples of the champions that have far to many skins already,It would be nice to have skins with champions that don't get any like oh i don't know...kindred...illaoi...kled...malzahar..these are the champions that are missing out kindred would be a cool high noon..instead we get high noon ashe,darius,and hecarim..not so great really..their nice but i just give it a thumbs down..

And on that note, when riot does make a skin for an unpopular champion can they please not actively ruin it before it even hits live by breaking the chromas a-la-shen?

They rarely do. Making a skin requires a small team of people to do the splash art, create the character model, integrate it into the game code, test it for bugs, check with the balance team to make sure that it doesn't have some sort of p2w mechanic hidden in its visuals, etc. Just making a new skin that way costs them tens of thousands of dollars in time and investment costs. Why on earth would they put that kind of money into a skin that only a few thousand people on the planet are going to buy?

Malz just got a Hex skin not long ago, I think you meant so say Rek'Sai(forgotten but never gone). It is sad when champs are even seen in pro-play but have practically 0 skins. But honestly Rito doesn't care about their players, all that matters is the zero risk cash grabs (seriously, Ashe got 2 awesome skins before this one - Project + Cosmic - she really didn't need another high-tier skin for at least 2 years). Does anybody even see a lot of Ashe players? One of the lowest play-rate ADC's I ever see in ranked.

Also isn't it a bit too close to Overwatch's Ashe? Not that I've ever played Overwatch, but serious vibes from that skin. And Darius just looks like Graves or something.
