Blood Moon Jhin is a slap in the face to Illaoi players

It's cool and all, but....

Why does he get a skin when Illaoi came out first and has not yet received one? We've been waiting over a year now and Riot totally baited us with the tentacles in Dreadnova GP.

Just feels unfair; Riot once again panders to and gives the skin to the larger player base even though they don't necessarily deserve it.

When Illaoi was released, a thought flitting in the back of my head was how often will a champion with that many models get a new skin. Welcome to the club of Zyra, Yorick and Heimer.

They completely did bait that QQ Maybe they just want to give Illaoi players a harsh lesson :')

It's cause he's popular XD nah

Skins really have nothing to do with the time a champ was released, they are just what ever happens to fit the theme that is being worked on at the time.

Because Illaoi takes a while to make skins for. Plus blood moon Illaoi doesn't sound very good

It a slap in the face to Jhin players. From the idea art they have shown. It looks to close to the normal default skin. Even worse is this is another Ionia blood moon skin. Seems like it will be another year before we get another skin. While other champions with to many skins will keep getting more skins.

I have to say thank god for modders. I am sticking to my project mod skin.

Its not uncommon that sometimes a newer champ gets a new skin before an older one.

It's the time of the year when blood moon is a thing usually, so it's much easier and better to make a skin for the more popular champion that fits the theme that they are workign on at the time

Plus, they never do just one Blood Moon skin. Jhin is probably going to be the biggest one they're highlighting, due to his immense popularity and hype. There is a possibility she could get a Blood Moon skin too. Honestly though, I don't like that Jhin's getting a Blood Moon skin. The last ADC before him (Kalista) got a Blood Moon skin, and I don't want that to become a trend of all new ADCs.
