Only Americans play American Football. "Soccer" is played by almost entire world. Hell, Rugby is similar to American Football and is played by more nations.

It's true that American Football is an American sport in itself. I thought the theme would match more champions (Nautilus for example) I do not care about the origin. I'm looking at the aesthetic value of the skin. [slayer-pantheon-rainbows]

I said this year's ago with many others.

Riot nowadays is no longer a patriotic company based in the USA. Notice we haven't had July 4th skins in like forever but we had the Chinese lunar festival ones. Since they are owned by tencent.

There is also the "excuse" that they wouldn't sell because it is an American only sport. Semi believable, poorer countries can't afford the helmets and shoulder pads like they can a simple soccer ball. Plus the "barbaric" nature of the game is rarely matched.

I wanted some so bad before, yet riot never made em. To be honest even if they did I wouldn't buy em since I'm on a pretty sincere boycott do to things they been doing.

Isnt Lunar Festival World of Warcraft term?

Also this is true, its American sport. Should they also add skins for Cricket thats played predominately in UK? Bandy because of Russia? Badminton cause of China? HELL even Rugby would be more important than American Football since its much more dominant sport. Should every country get skins for popular sports in their countries? Hell England has event called Rolling Cheese where they roll cheese down the mountain? Cool skin for Malphite isnt it?

Its simple, Football is most played sport. Even USA plays it and has participated in world tournaments. American football is only popular in America, And its just mild version of Rugby. Hell, if you suggested Baseball, it would make more sense since its somewhat original sport, even tho it originated from English sport called Rounders.

Mild version of rugby. Humorous. But to be expected from eu and it's ilk.

Riot could do a skin line, various sports represented by champs fitting of the equipment and possible skill set. Cricket ekko, American football alistar, etc. They don't need a full line dedicated to one sport but some decent sports skins could be nice.

Mighty Jax is lonely with not many jock friends.

Its about about what they "could" do. Its about "Who would buy them". Making skins for sport popular on just one marked is a risky investment. Skins are made to be sold, not to be "patriotic". Business doesnt give a shit about patriotism.

I see.. That explains it. Still, American Football is not a sport that is US-limited. It sucks. We want skins just for the heck of it, not for the symbolic meaning hidden behind the origin of whatsoever. [zombie-nunu-bummed]

I know man and I appreciate that desire you have. Blame the rest of the world for not liking the USA's sport that resembles medieval European war in a sense. :(

Its not that Europeans dont like it. Its that they dont know it. Hell one of my favoruite movies is The Replacements with Keanu Reeves , i watch that I will survive dance scene in prison all the time. Watched that movie 10 times and i still dont know shit about it. All i know is that dude that smokes had to kick ball over goal for some reason. I like Baseball tho, i used to play it as a kid with friends using axe handles and tennis ball.

We have a lot of football skins.

Now American football, there have been multiple requests for quarterback Sion, could be a cool skin. Might be others, the quarterback is the only position I actually know.

Edit: Braum also fits that frontline sumo position.
