At this point why should anyone even bother trying to give you ideas or writing up posts on skin ideas. You pick the same champions every single year to receive 1350+ skins, the best skin lines, the coolest effects, the most character, the best storylines . . . . and you completely ignore the same champions that receive only one skin every 3 to 4 years and give them the same bland, hardly worked on, unimaginative skins, and 750 or 900 worthy skin.

Now here we are, again, giving the same champions a Halloween skin another champion could have benefited from. Does Morgana really need another skin that fits her theme so good? No she doesn't. Does Tristana really need a skin like that? No she doesn't. While I am probably going to end up liking the Teemo skin, again . . . another champion that has so many skins and a 1350 skin . . . . . is getting another great quality skin . . . .

HEY! LISTEN! You want to know what champions that could have benefited from a cute Halloween skin line with new artwork or a new way to imagine the character? Cassiopeia Karma Syndra TaliyahBard . I mean . . . . . God forbid you give champions that receive the same looking and bland skins every couple years . . . a new theme and decent quality skin. It's ok. Lux is getting the Ultimate Skin.

You decide to give us Tristana Morgana .

Stop saying you care about all of your champions. You only care about the same champions you make decent skins for every single year. You put champions that don't fit skin lines in skins lines for the sake of giving that champion a good quality skins. Jinx Ekko . Your idea of champion skin diversity is giving us one "OFF THE SKIN LINE ROTATION" skin for one champion the entire year . . . . and that was Blood Moon Kennan. That is your idea of champion skin diversity and caring. Stop saying you care. You don't.

They seem to make a specific theme for each harrowing nowadays,the last year had a zombie theme,this one seems to be about witches and demons. And honestly I think Morgana is simply the perfect candidate for a witch-skin,so I can understand why she'd get one.(though i have to say Tristana seems really weird,but maybe I am missing something about that).

However champs like Bard or Cassiopeia wouldn't have fit at all(and Taliyah just came out this year,most champs have to wait roughly a year until they get their first skin,so YOU are showing blatant favoritism here).

Also the skins aren't even on the pbe yet,so it remains to be seen if those are the only skins or if other champs will get skins as well.

Making champions that would fit a theme a skin every year can be hard when you have 120+ champions to take care of.

All the champions you listed have something in common : Syndra Taliyah Bard Karma Cassiopeia They are all unpopular. It doesn't take them off the new skins rotation, it just pushes them back. Specifically Cassiopeia was taken off of the list due to being part of the MYMU, otherwise the point holds true. I do agree at this point Karma and Cassiopeia are pretty deserving of a skin though, Zyra is beyond obviously deserving of one, Challenger Zyra maybe? Victorious Karma?

Maybe one day Swain will get a vampire skin for Halloween. Oh wait, then he'd have to get a VGU first. That'll definitely happen soon...
