"We stopped making sexy champs because they all looked alike"
Maybe the problem isn't having sexy champions, but the lack of originality.

They won't stop making sexy champions. They just figured out that they should just make a champion sexy if it makes sense for the character.
Pretty sure that the Evelynn rework will be damn sexy. Because that's what she is, a predator with hypnotising beauty. Xayah isn't ugly either. She is part of the couple of the game, they wanted them to be attractive.
But if you create a champion who is for example a chembaron from Zaun, then it isn't necessary nor logical for him/her to be extremely sexy.
Citation? I assume, since that's in quotations, you got it from a source instead of pulling it out of your ass just to refute it (otherwise known as a straw man)?
I want links now, OP. You have an obligation to provide a link, or admit you made that shit up. Give us some context.

Or you could take 2 seconds to link your sources.
Gee, it's like the burden of proof is on you and citing direct quotations is common practice for credibility.

What they said
In 2013 we made a conscious effort to shift away from the “hourglass girls” we had been making for years. We just had so many women in our game that could easily be described by, “Syndra, but in a different cosplay.” We needed more variety. There are a lot of different ways to make compelling female characters that don’t revolve around raw sex appeal. IMO having a large variety of female and male characters is really good for us. Lets us hit a ton of different niches which is important with a roster as big as ours.
You're misrepresenting their quote to make a diss at them.
They're aware they need more variety.
Rakan and Kayn are two shirtless anime pretty boys in a row if that means anything.
dem boobs tho

Chesticles? :P
This is the exact opposite of what the Rioter said though?
"It is also crucial to recognize that even within the “attractive character” space, there is huge potential variety in the ways that attractiveness can express itself (there’s a reason I used Lux, Ahri, and Jinx in the above example)"- JinxyLord
" I think it’s important we make another, not because “OMG SEX APPEAL,” but because “I feel attractive” is a compelling character fantasy that a lot of players (men and women) really attach to."- also JinxyLord

And OP was criticizing my reading comprehension.
So the problem here is that there are so many levels of personal attraction that we're blurring the line.
We have a ton of "conventionally" attractive characters. Guys like Braum, Miss Fortune, Sona, Taric, etc. Good-looking, well-kept characters who fit standards for "everyone".
Then you have champions who are for some people but not everyone. Jinx, Kayn, Vi, Ezreal. Characters who look good but only to specific people.
Then you just have characters that fill fetish spots. Rengar. Illaoi. Thresh. Kindred. Now we're getting weird.
My point is that "We need a new hot champ" might not count because maybe you think Camille is super hot. Maybe Rakan's shirtless doggy-ear-ness is your jam. Maybe you're a kinky SOB who loves Rek'sai or Ivern. No matter what, it's not as simple as "Give us more generic hot guy/gal champs to fill our ranks with".
Inb4 we start getting more bare foot champions.
You just got me thinking about an Urgot skin...
Xayah
is from the sexiest champions of League what are you talking about, almost same league as Ahri
and from the males we just got Kayn
and Rakan
, all of these are full into the sexy anime theme theres no excuse complaining about them not adding sexy characters
