How many skins do they release each year? It's bound to vary a little from year to year so an average would be fine. Some people have complained about how rarely some champions have received skins. I am just curious -lets say Riot had to release skins for ALL champions, and after receiving one a character could't get ANOTHER skin until ALL other champions had gotten skins.
How many years would each of the "cycles" run?
Tormentula2 votesWay too long.
It takes at least 6 months to make a skin and shit happens so they can't guarante skins for everybody. Events turn up and they can't miss the opportunity to give champions thematic entrances into that skin line.

About how many patches per year?
GreenLore1 votesLast year we had 24 patches,because we get a new patch every 2 weeks,which means that we'll get 2 patches per month most of the time(there'll be a month in which we'll get 3 patches,but we also only get 1 patch for december)
Dragon Master1 votes2 per month except during the last two weeks of christmas so about 23. on average about 70 skins per year
GreenLore1 votesUhm that isn't true at all. In the last 3 months we've got 17 skins already(4 were released in january,7 in febuary and 6 in march).And it looks like we'll get 6 skins in april(godfist lee sin,dreadnova Darius,comic blade Yi,Conqueror Karma and the 2 release skins of Rakan and Xayah)
In general we get 1-5 skins per patch and we'll get usually 2 patches per month.
