Skins are in development for a long time, and we know for a fact these skins were... how? Because the leak at the START OF THE YEAR told us about these skins.

Now you can be saying Syndra Soraka andMissFortune though? really? And the answer is yes.

If you havent been paying attention for popular champions they usually get skins once a year. Its a little unfair, and i think they are holding off on WAY too long to catch the new champions back up on 2nd skins (come on Riot you cant have NO ideas for Illaoi Taliyah and AurelionSol )

On top of this, SG Lux when she first released was a really popular skin. So they made a whole skinline for it, which had even more success. People were CRYING OUT that they wanted more SG content, with a ton of fan skins and more.

But now that we get that content tons of front page posts are "Fuck you Riot and the fact that its not an Urgot skin."

We knew about SG months in advance, So SG was definetly happening. No Yorick Urgot Viktor Cassiopeia nor any new champion with the exception of Taliyah fit the theme... at ALL.

It would not surprise me at all if Riot is in development of these skins. As evident by this release it can take half a year or more for skins to release.

But good god if we are going to bash every single skin until we get there, I hope that those champions dont even get skins if im honest.

TLDR: Stop being pissed off at every single skin that we knew about months in advance.

Rather complain than say nothing. Compliancy is a sin.

Im not saying dont complain, and dont make "Yorick needs skins" posts. Im saying pick your time and place.

You complained, and were successful. Riot released an official statement saying "give us 1 year" further bitching doesnt speed the development process. You were already successful.

As well as Yorick needs skins posts dont harm anything. HOWEVER, complaining on every skin released that isnt what you want just makes you an asshole. So, if you want your skins, just make more posts saying you want those skins. Stop bashing perfectly okay well in development skins. That does nothing but make you conceited.

How DARE Riot make skins that will make them money? How DARE they not make skins for champs with 1% playrates? How DARE they ever make anything those filthy Ahri mains might enjoy? HOW DARE A BUSINESS MAKE SMART BUSINESS CHOICES INSTEAD OF CATERING TO MY ENTITLED ASS?!?!

I mean Riot is a game developer that also wants to please as many fans as possible, not just the ones that make them the most money. Not that I mind new skins for any champ though.

There are like a few thousand Yorick mains, as opposed to probably hundreds of thousands of Ahri mains, they are pleasing as many fans as possible.

"Skins are in development for a long time"

Oh boy I bet those Cassiopeia Swain Urgot Yorick Shen skins are gonna be amazing if Riot has been working on them for 3+ years.

I know right they must be so epic they can't be seen for a long time

They just now announced the fact that they are working on something. Too long? Of course. But there is not a thing that you can do to help once they are already making the skins. You let your voice be heard and they are finally coming. But screaming and bitching every time that a skin that isnt them is released just makes me WANT you people to never get your skins.

As well as Urgot just got reworked, and yorick did a few months to a year ago.

Swains rework is planned.

So what's Cassiopeias excuse?

Skorch1 votes

Im not saying theres an excuse for every one, or that they dont/havent deserved them.

But if Riot already said that they are working on a skin, why does bitching help anything?

There isn´t much to be done for Cass a.k.a. a poor man's Medusa, and she even got that skin already.

Or for Swain, because he has a VGU incoming and it´s close.

Urgot has just been reworked and i think the only thing that might be a cool skin for him is a 975 one referencing Waternoose from Monsters Inc.

Yorick is a Gravedigger, not exactly easy to make skins for him.

And then there´s Shen. Not much to be done past giving him a Scorpion and a Sub-Zero skin, which he already has.

"Entitled"

Goes 5+ years without a new skin. Kindly stop posting.

Skorch2 votes

Yes entitled. Are you being paid to play league? Does riot have any personal profit other than appeasing the 1% in releasing the skins?

Riot said your skins are coming, and continually bashing everything that isnt what you want makes me wish you never got it.
