Riot, it has been 700 days. You haven't even announced there to be an skin in the works. When is this happening?

He's probably getting a Christmas skin. Grumpy Reindeer Santa Ornn. He's old and isolated and doesn't know how the world works anymore and he makes toys for kids only to have them not like/appreciate them.

Or, maybe, they could make him Krampus for a less silly feeling skin.

I could get behind that first idea lol

Oh, so you'd be happy with a Team Liquid Ornn skin?

Depends on the quality and such, but if it looks good, then yeah. Also Championship Kalista exists.

Still only Esports related. She doesn't have any that are in the store year round (and Taliyah just joined that club)

4 Step CadenceJul 24, 20191 votes

Her other skins are legacy though, which means you can't get them all the time, and Esports skins don't count anyway. The only one you can buy all the time is her release skin, Blood Moon.

Skarner has like 5 or 6 skins, theyre just all ... old and meh. Kassadin will never get a skin to match Cosmic Reaver anyway so I understand not making one.

Karthus is verboten because China.

That's not the point of the post. All those champions have been waiting 900+ days, or roughly 3+ years, for a new skin(aka, longer than Ornn). The only reason why they have more skins than Ornn are because they're older than him.

However, it is a bit ridiculous that he's nearly 2 years old and doesn't have a skin yet. We really don't need a new Ivern/Aurelion Sol/Camille.

SukishooJul 25, 20191 votes

Yup.

Makes me wonder if they planned a neeko skin since her launch skin is going to be legacy by the end of the year. Or are we going to suddenly see less skins pop up for new champions unless they are super popular? :/

4 Step CadenceJul 25, 20191 votes

Well there's still Star Guardian, The Harrowing, and probably a few other releases Neeko could be a part of. Though, since I believe it might be Death Sworn again this year, maybe not Neeko for The Harrowing.

Ornn, like I said, is the best candidate for a Santa skin this year. He didn't get one last year because the theme that year wasn't Christmas, it was general winter. And I remember in 2017 we had Bad Santa vs Good Santa, so maybe it will be something like that this year. Rip Bad Santa Pyke, though. Probably not getting that, and if we do, everyone will through a fit. I honestly would've taken that over PROJECT.

Also isn't Sylas still waiting, or is he still too new to get a skin, like Qiyana? When do we start the "this champion should've gotten a skin by now" timer?

SukishooJul 25, 20191 votes

Yeah I'd hate to see her get a Harrowing cause it'd be two legacy skins even though she could be really cool in some of those themes. Maybe Star but we never know (hopefully we'll see Star Guardian sooooon, maybe week along with pantheon ;))

Ornn would be a nice Santa skin but would also be sad cause then it would be another that'd end up being a Legacy after awhile.

Sylas only came out at the start of the year, so he's not that bad. I think it usually starts at least a year later.

Do you play ornn? If not stop talking about him. Like none of the recent skin lines make sense for him or do you actually think project ornn would look good since it's would not.

So I have to play a Champion to want equal ammounts of Skins? Lol, what is that logic?

boricCentaur1Jul 23, 20192 votes

People like you ruin skins for these champions. Since you don't care about the champion you just want to rant about something nothing else.

The sol skin was not like by a lot of sol players and the ivern skin was fucking hated by ivern players.

AGAIN THERE HAS BEEN NO SKIN THAT WOULD FIT ORNN so how about you use logic and stop complaining about a problem that has nothing to do with you.

Since unlike you I have played ornn and do like playing him and I don't want one of his ONLY skins to be pure skin.

Didn't I say I do play Ornn? If you actually play Ornn, would you not be happy if they announced they were at least WORKING on a new skin for him?

Ah, because it's not like Ornn is one of my Mains, I have M7 on him and love to play him when he is good.

Since unlike you I have played ornn and do like playing him and I don't want one of his ONLY skins to be pure skin.

How do you know I don't play Ornn? Even a look at my op.gg would have told you that. lol.

Thats the fault of Riot not caring enough to make a quality skin or create something appealing, rather thn something easy. PROJECT doesnt fit Akali or Irelia, either, though it would've been fantastic on their original versions. Makes less sense on the VGUs but, irrelevant.

A literal cat got a Super Hero school skin. The jungle-dwelling cold blooded gay reptile got a winter skin and Yasuo got a battle boss skin resembling exactly 0 well known arcade game villains so miss me with this "hurr it doesnt fit!" fallacy.

On the good side of skins, Camille has a Witch skin. The Baroness cyborg grandma has a W I T C H skin.

They made Gentleman Gnar even. Riot has endless creativity and the ability to amaze and astound, if theyre willing to try. But no one plays Ornn and Riot prefers it that way, so theyre going to take even the best concepts and dilute the crap out of it to make it miserable so they can say it happened while justifying a $15 price tag on something that really, really, really should not cost half that.

Yes I do play Ornn sometimes. Also they had a great opportunity with the Dogs vs Cats. Also like I said, they haven't even announced there to be an Ornn skin being worked on.

boricCentaur1Jul 23, 20191 votes

Yeah I'm 90% sure you just I said play ornn without actually playing him then you just listed a random event without thinking about it.

How would ornn fit doges and cats. Like his kit has too much aoe to have anything with the color style of the event since it would be too messy when fighting or to look at.

So a dog instead of a ram for his ult wouldn't work? Puppy breath for his W wouldn't work? His Q wouldn't be cool as a little prairie dog popping its head out of the ground? And I played Ornn since his release. He's one of my junglers.

KazekibaJul 24, 20191 votes

Too much AoE because Yorick and Fizz have zero AoE abilities...

What?

it wouldnt fit to make Ornn for Dogs and cats!

Again, didn't stop them from using Fizz, a merman, by turning him into a dog. And then making a $120 chroma for it too

PyrosanJul 23, 20191 votes

I guess people who analyse champions shouldn't be talking about those champions unless they play them too I guess lol

4 Step CadenceJul 24, 20192 votes

You don't have to play a champion to want to advocate for skins for them. You just have to understand their themes and lore, what would work for their character, and the theme and lore for the skin line, as well as the requirements for that skin line. That's literally all it takes to make/suggest a skin that makes sense.
