Kaisa, Zoe, Camille, Kled, AurelionSol, Taliyah, Illaoi, Kindred, who all came after tahm kench, have the same number of skins at 2

Xayah, Rakan, Jhin, who also all came after him, have more at 3 and 4 respectively

Ekko, who came right before him, has a whopping 5

the new lissandra, leona, and camille skins all look lovely but tahm kench players exist too

Why in the world would Riot spend time and money coming up with a new theme, new textures, new animations, new particles, new VFX, new voiceover work, and possibly new interactions for a champion they don't even want anyone to play (putting the brakes on LCS Worlds Big Plays is a no-no) when they can make slight changes to existing skins and sell a ton of them at close to full price? Riot's purpose isn't to produce creative work, or produce quality work, or support all the products and services they've ever offered. It's to make as much money as possible, as quickly as possible, by spending as little money as possible, and churning out a bland stream of recycled work that millions of people can't get enough of is a fantastic way to do that.

No offense intended (sincerely), but I honestly want to know why you expect some notion of balance/fairness to justify a new Tahm skin.

We're going down the list of champions that need new skins. Personally, I think the ones that only have their release skins need to be looked at first. Then, on to the champions that only have 2 skins, ect. Technically, Taliyah still needs one, since Esports skins kinda don't count since they aren't exactly Riot's choice. While Tahm has waited a while, I don't think he's very high priority right now, since there are still champions who have gone since their release without a new skin.

These skins, of course, have to be released along side skins for more popular champions though, just in case these skins don't generate a large profit. We also don't want a bunch of angry (insert popular champion here) mains running around demanding a new skin.
