Xin'Zaho skin, with chroma? Really?

Why does a champ who has a play ratio so low (and never appears in competitive) deserve such a good skin with chromas on release, and some fighter/tanks like: SHEN (who doesnt have a 1350 rp or higher skin, who doesnt get a skin since more than 4 years, even after the rework, even with all the games he saw in competitive, who has the worst bloodmoon, without a recall animation), Renekton (who doesnt have a 1350 rp or higher skin, who doesnt get a skin since 2 year, except the ugly SKT T1, that doesnt count, as riot said that competitive skin do not lower the "champion skin priority"), Irelia (who doesnt have a 1350 rp or higher skin, who doesnt get a skin since 2 year). Just feels so bad watching xin getting another 1350 or 975 well done with chromas aswell, and aswell another 1350 or even 1820 for zyra (that tbh i think deserves).

Xin Zhao's last skin was Secret Agent Xin Zhao released in March 2015, 2 years ago. Before that, Warring Kingdoms in February 2013, 2 years before Secret Agent. Then before that, Winged Hussar in September 2011, nearly 2 years before Warring Kingdoms. 3 skins in 6 years is not very much. Compare that to someone like Draven, who got at least one skin a year since his release.

Riot is literally giving older champions new skins, the exact thing you complain about here. Personally I've been waiting for a decent Xin skin for a long time. The only one he has with a recall animation is Secret Agent, not even the 1350 Warring Kingdoms skin has one. Everything you say here about Renekton also applies to Xin, so maybe take a step back for some perspective before getting all mad about a skin for a champion you probably don't even play.
