look i understand making skins for popular champions is a better business move since it drives skin sales but jfc throw us a bone once in a while cmon...

Zac released 2013 and has had 1 skin. that's 1 skin in 4 years Yorick released 2011. 1 skin since launch. had a VGU update a while back.

honorable mentions to AurelionSol Illaoi though not as dated

They at least try with Zac. He's not much to go on, so they gave him a chroma. The other champs they're just neglecting. Thought Yorick was getting a bloodmoon skin. Nope. Thought Illaoi would get a dunkmaster skin with March Madness. Nope.

yup their excuse for not giving yorick skins was because his old coding / waiting on rework, now that hes been reworked (quite awhile now) there is no more excuses, yet still no skins

they had a perfect opportunity for a snow day skin, since you know hes the only champ who uses a shovel, perfect fit to smack people with a snow shovel like in home alone

And not just lazy recolours with something slapped on for Zac, like a pair of shorts and a diving mask - looking at you, Pool Party Zac! I would love something different, like a skin that takes inspiration from the T-1000 from the Terminator, with liquid metal, and at the same time take some design and animation inspiration from Jack from Tekken.

I think it would be cool with an animation akin to Jack's Megaton Earthquake at the start of Zac's Elastic Slingshot [E]: https://youtu.be/xrmxgEGOnig?t=1m16s Then, he would stretch his robot arms, revealing some form of extenders before launching himself. The same extenders could be revealed when using Stretching Strike [Q].

I would prefer if the joints of the extenders were more like the joints of the arms in the picture below, rather than springs: http://thumb1.shutterstock.com/display_pic_with_logo/2679550/299310617/stock-photo-illustration-the-black-steel-long-arm-robot-element-creation-character-design-in-a-fantastic-299310617.jpg Springs do not fit that well with a more badass skin. That could be saved for a wacky skin in the toy box line, like "Punch Bot Zac" or something.

Legit, Zac needs an Ultimate Chroma Wheel skin. It would let you open a colour wheel in-game that changes his colour on the fly or select a button that puts it on a slow rotate so you very slowly change colour.

I heard it rumoured that Zac was requested by Blank as their Skin for the Season 6 champion line. So there may be a new one for him this year. Of course Riot doesn't always go with the player's requests, as Faker wanted Ahri after his 1st win but didn't get it

Yorick really needs a skin, he literally only has his release skins. No excuse at this point really.

Zac needs another skin too, but I think it can be difficult to make skins for him that aren't just some slight clothing and a color change to his gel.

Karma only got another skin because its an esports skin.

She "performed well at worlds" (which for Karma is kind of a big thing considering she was considered pretty meh for 3-4 years even after her rework) so they gave it to her.

Twitch and Shen also need a new skin.
