The new arcade skins are cool but Xerath hasn't had a skin since 2015

I just realized Kai'sa will now have more skins than Xerath. That's 5 skins in ~15 months for Kai vs 0 skins in over 4 years for Xer.

Bullet Angel, K/DA, Prestige K/DA, IG, Arcade (5 or 4.5 if you don't count Prestige as a full skin) vs Battlecast, Runeborn, Scorched Earth, GotS (4)

Better give Kai'Sa her fifth skin in a year

2 legendaries back to back (ez and jhin) and 2 MORE adcs are getting skins (kaisa/caitlyn) plus tristana. Like hot damn xD what happened to other champs? Other classes?

I was hoping Xerath gets another skin, lol was planning on picking him up jeez. I bet more adcs will get skins next cycle.

I was genuinely expecting Battle Boss Xerath. I have no idea what to expect anymore.

Udyr, Skarner, Xerath, Zilean

At least with Dark Star, they gave them to champs that don't get a huge amount of skins; Karma doesn't have a lot of really good skins and Shaco, as much I as I hate the champion and think he's toxic, hasn't had a skin in years. Even Jhin doesn't have a ton though he's definitely more popular.

I'm not sure how I feel about their choices for the Arcade this year though. Especially since I think Kai'sa's isn't very good. :/ Something about her anatomy is off in the splash art and I feel like the way she's positioned isn't very good.

Meanwhile Kai'sa, "In case y’all forgot: Kai’Sa was released in March 2018 and now, just shy of a year, will have 4 epic skins and 1 mythic skin. That’s five skins. In a year."

• Some random guy in the Arcade Kai'Sa comments

I've been expecting Arcade Ekko since his release. His particles look like they could be made for that skin. But hey better give Kaisa another skin and dump the other arcade skin on a champion with barely any particles to even show off.

It’s Riot Skin Team, not justice nor common sense that decides who gets a skin and which.

Honestly I'm kinda disappointed about the battleboss skins.

I mean what kind of boss do Qiyana and yasuo represent? Sure there are some Samurai bosses, but Samurais can be just as often player characters and Qiyana looks like she just got the boss skin because she gets released in the same patch and happens to be a more antagonistic character.

BUT Kai'sa didn't get a skin in 2 minutes. Please get in line.

well, he's not a female humanoid so nope. no skin for him.

Honestly, Boss Xerath and Glitched/Bugged Boss Mordekaiser seemed like a given, one due to demand and the other due to the recently baked rework and the inmense amount of memes about Morde's bugs, but neither got made...

The reaction to this decision by Riot is so laughably predictable that there's only 2 options here:

1. Riot is incompetent
2. Riot simply doesn't care and is more interested in quick cash grabs

Take your pick

The skin does not even fit well. It kinda just looks like they slapped some arcade particles on him and said, "ok this works."

People, we need to stop focusing on complaining about gameplay and start complaining about the skins they're making.

Kalista only has Championship and a team skin. Taliyah also only has a team skin. Seems like once they get team skins, Riot won't bother.

Kinda let down tbh

I stated this in another thread, but I'll say it here too.

They are probably alternating between forgotten champions and popular champions so that they don't lose too much money. For example, Shaco was in the "1000 days" club, and he just got a new skin. So, now, its time for a full cast of "popular champions". Next release, they'll probably give another "forgotten" champion a skin.

Don't give up hope yet. There's still time.

There's too many champions to give them all a skin, they gotta choose high profit champs.

I'm hoping both Zilean and Xerath get project skins this year. While thematically they may not be the best candidates, visually I think they would be amazing .
