Can a Red explain to me why they made us have to buy Teemo's VU?

You gave his new skin a Tristana level visual update that fits Teemo's sadistic personality way more than his base character. That's not an alternate skin, that's pretty much an upgraded champion. Explain to me how is this fair to Teemo players? It seems really bullshit.

Edit:

I don't want the apocalyptic theme to be his update. I understand THAT specifically doesn't 100% go with his character. Everything else though, from the improved model to most of his lines drastically succeeds Teemo as a character. Thus creating an udyr effect where there is no reason to play an uglier model when such a skin exist. It's a terrible money grabbing scheme that screwed over Udyr for a number of players.

LOL they did no such thing. The skin still uses a pretty similar model. If they did a VU he'd get better anatomy like Tristana did or even like Heimer did.

We do not speak about he who shall not be named, or any skins created for he for it is heresy and you will be punished.

This skin, unfortunately, doesn't really fit in the default League universe, due to being "realistic" and "futuristic".

The reason they only did one skin is because thays where their resources were alloted to.The skins team and champion update team are seperate and dont really interactions with each other until a champ rework had been completed and the skins then need to be tupdated. Teemo is in lower queue for rework since his kit is still in a healthy place. Evenyually they will update his model abd the rest of his skins to better match the quality of the omega squad teemo. Just not yet.

Are you complaining because they made a Teemo skin?

" Explain to me how is this not fair?" This is a double negative

Love how sheeple follow the downvote train but can't explain to me how I'm wrong. Current teemo looks like a walking potatoe. Riot knows this and with there current technology they gave him a new model. This could have easily went to a Teemo update but they decided to make it a skin.

Skins are suppose to be alternate fantasies. Yet, Teemo has always been a sadistic cold person. (Minus all the war crap.) This VO did nothing but expanded upon it. Everything about this "skin" is just an upgraded teemo.

I've purchased five Teemo skins... worth every penny. I don't feel ripped off.
