Edit: Before someone says it, yes there are 14 champs here. I messed up in my Excel file where I keep track of this stuff and Rek'Sai was somehow farther down on the list. Bear with the title as you can't change it when it's posted. Mistakes can happen.

Yeah it's another one of these posts. Haven't done one in a while so why not post something a little different outside of the whole PAX and Klein hate going on right now (I'm still with the community though that we shouldn't let this just blow over like Riot wants and I've recently shared my thoughts, but hey got to try something to keep whatever love I have left for this game alive before it flatlines finally).

List is as follows:

  • Heimerdinger 1512 days
  • Amumu Udyr 1251 days
  • Skarner Xerath 1225 days
  • Fiddlesticks 1222 days
  • Zilean 1211 days
  • Shaco Mordekaiser 1201 days
  • RekSai 1166 days
  • Aatrox 1138 days
  • Nunu 1064 days
  • Malphite 1061 days
  • Kassadin 1054 days

(Irelia would be listed but her skin is releasing sometime this week most likely so I left her off)

100 Day threshold (champs within 100 days of going 1000 days over)

  • Sona 937 days
  • Leblanc 907 days

And to reiterate on these posts: this is just for the sake of data and view of time. Champs that are in need of reworks (Fidd & Mord) are more than likely to be held off from skins until reworked. Champs that are in the works for new skins will also be held off but should be considered for them in the future after they hit.


In closing: list is fortunately shorter and we should expect Heim and Amumu in the coming patches. As well, Urgot finally got his skin and the list is ever so slowly getting shorter. Whoo I guess. Normally I'd be ecstatic that it's finally here but considering the situation of PAX and Klein with the community in the last few days, it's just getting me down.

Heimerdinger coming up this year. Amumu coming up this year. Sona appeared in my .wad file digging several months ago so I'm guessing she has something coming. And one of LB's voice actresses (not English, I think it was Spanish?) mentioned working on something for LB so she's possibly getting a legendary soonish.

Hopefully Nunu and Aatrox get something soon. Aside from Xerath and Kassadin (the latter of whom is still in need of an update of some sort), all the rest are medium to high priority VGU candidates.

Prediction: Heimer will get a 975 skin then not get another skin for 4 years.

Heimerdinger Amumu have both been confirmed for skins this year (along with Kled as well). So we just gotta keep waiting and seeing when they come out.

Aatrox his update came out in June, so he wasn't eligible for skins before that. So just gotta wait till he gets one now.

Nunu just literally had his update, so he's back on list for getting a skin sometime.

Mordekaiser is one that's been said to be a high priority on the VGU list and they'd be surprised if he didn't get his VGU in 2019. So it's almost certain that he'll be there and thus won't see any skins till after that.

Shaco is another I'd say they are probably holding off on since his last skin was only a 750 and he's getting pretty outdated to the point that there's only so much they can do without having to just give him a Legendary or Ultimate by now.

As for the rest... they may or may not have something in the works. Only time will tell.

I know you personally count team skins, but I like to make the note that Zac Kalista Ryze would be on the list too if you don't count them, which the skins team allegedly doesn't.

Especially Kali since she only has her release skin and two esports skins.

I'm already tracking on what champions have gone without a skin since their most recent skin.

I think Sona is definitely going to be in the Star Guardian lineup this year. She's a very popular champion, but they've waited this long in between skins, so it has to be something big. Plus, Star Guardian would fit her so well.

I've been hoping for a RPG skin for Udyr where each of his stance is a different class. Like rouge for tiger, knight for turtle, barbarian for bear and mage for phoenix. Could work a a 750rp skin but would be nice if it was higher price for extra flairs.
