Another skin vote?

I really liked the event in which we could vote for the next Illaoi skin to be released. It was nice to be involved in the process and getting updates how the skin is progressin was interesting.

There are quite alot of champions which rarely get skins in this game, so I would like to have another vote like that to decide on the next skin for one of them. I know, alot of people felt bad about it, because their favourite didn't get picked. But I would like to know what the community thinks about this.

Do you want another vote? Or was the last one that bad of an experience that you don't want to repeat it? What champion would you like to vote on? Maybe you already have 3 skin ideas for a champion people could vote for? Share it in here!

To share my own thoughts: The champion I would like to vote for would be Zac: Zac

He really rarely gets skins (the last one was a worlds skin, doesn't really count for the schedule, the last before that was Pool Party in 2015). One of the reasons for that is that his liquid body makes skins complicated for him. Kinda similar to Illaoi, who doesn't get alot of skins because it requires additional work with her tentacles.

Skins I could imagine we could vote for:

Guardian of the Sands Zac (sand body, egypt ornaments)
Program Zac (nanobots creating his body, with a glowing core in the middle)
Honeycomb Zac (body is honey, honeycombs sticking on his body, bees on W, honeycomb pattern when he flattens for ult)

I'd like to see another one, it a pretty interesting idea. I was pretty sure they said we were supposed to have another one later last year but we never did. So I dunno if they plan to actually go through with any more :(

I feel it was also cool even for a simple commercial reason:

If you make skin for a champion who is not very popular or often challenging in term of creativity, having a poll where the community help you to see what they want assure you that the skin will have some popularity/sucess, at least a bit.

You know, it is like "If I must fish with a wood rod, I better ask what is the only fish they want so I can get with it before it break".

The only problem with skin voting is that, if the skin you vote for doesn't end up being picked in the end, it's never going to go into the game.

Is there a place to check how well skins sold? I'm really curious to see how Illaoi's skin sold compared to some other character's skins and see if there was a noticeable bump (or not) due to the skin creation being featured so heavily.
