Dear Riot, what I really want for Christmas is skins.

Dear Riot, Please consider lonely champs who NEED skins versus giving champs skins 2 patches in a row. Raka has too many skins. GIVE LOVE TO OTHERS. I'm surprised you didnt give Ahri or Lux a new skins these next two patches. 🙄🙄

I know theres profit in Raka skins, but they'll make profit because they're also selling to every single damn country that has LoL available. So if it's not as popular in the US to some people, it may be popular to someone in Japan. Who the heck knows. One skin wont kill for an unpopular champion, especially its its released with like 7 other people that are popular and provided skins. But there will always be people to buy these skins, especially if they're available year round.

Well, let's see. Dr Mundo is getting a new skin (his last skin was 2~ years ago), Master Yi (whose last skin was 1~ year ago), Soraka hasn't had a skin since her Star Guardian skin last year (and I'm 50/50 on whether or not I want to count a Skin Variant as a skin), Twitch hasn't had a skin since last year (Omega Squad)...

And then of course Renekton hasn't had a skin since last year (Renektoy).

Beyond all that, though, the Winter Wonderland skins (disregarding Neeko) are probably going to be Legacy, and of course Hextech Renekton is almost certainly going to be a Hextech Crafting Exclusive.

But, what Champion(s) are you referring to who "Need" skins - that you apparently wouldn't mind letting their skin being Legacy?

EDIT: Amended for appropriate terminology.

are probably going to be Limited Edition

Legacy*

And Neeko will be Legacy after 1 year as well.

Umbral RegentNov 24, 20181 votes

Right, pardon that. I've edited my comment to use the more accurate term(s).

GreenLoreNov 26, 20181 votes

Was this confirmed somewhere?

As far as I know these skins don't just become legacy skins on their own.

Bards snowday skin and Dianas Lunar goddess skin are both still avaliable like regular skins,even though they were released during the holidays.

SukishooNov 26, 20182 votes

They hadn't in the past but it's something they were doing more of recently. With the release of Count Kledula you can see that is where they are trying out a bit more. They confirmed it on Twitter for Neeko.

The Pajama Guardians didn't count for the skins pipeline, being the first release of variants, FYI

Moonboy65Nov 26, 20182 votes

no that was Lancer Blitz

SpideraxeNov 26, 20181 votes

The Blitz skins are indeed more or less variants, as are the prestige skins for KDA, but the Pajama guardians were the first official release of them and called that way by Riot themselves

Out of those i would say that the only ones that really hold anything are these. Velkoz Ornn Ivern RekSai TahmKench

I was streching a bit with Velkoz Yorick since they both have 3 skins which isn't that bad, but I needed to make the list to 10.

I don't understand why Kindred isn't deserving of a skin? She has as many as RekSai and her last one came out 2 years ago.

Yorick's Gravedigger and his Pentakill skin were launch skins for him, because he was released back in the era when two skins on launch was a thing. So he's only gotten one skin since his launch in 2011, putting him in the same boat as Kench, Rek'Sai, and Kindred.

No skin since 2015, 5 skins.
No skin since 2016, only 5 skins.
No skin since 2016, only 3 skins.
No skin since early 2016, only 2 skins? Yeah he's more of a "newer hero" but still.
I understand he was recently reworked, but he only has a few skins people can actually still buy. we can only buy 3 of his skins, and the last available one that we can still buy came out in 2011. The last skin he received, which is currently unobtainable.
Not heavily played, but I agree with Warlord Rhinark, and she could still use another skin.
While he isn't "urgent", he still hasn't received a skin since 2016, but has been released since 2012.
Already mentioned, poor thing only received 1 skin since his release.
I want to throw him in, not "urgent either" but hasn't received a skin since 2016, with a total of only 3 skins.
She was mentioned already, with her 2 skins, poor thing.
He has a total of 5 skins, only 4 purchasable. Released in 2010, hasn't gotten a skin since 2015.
Last skin received was in 2015, as he was released in 2009. 3 available skins for purchase, 4 total, in almost 10 years?
Mentioned. I wouldn't really count SSG Tali as a skin, as she hadn't been given one since she was released.
Last skin received in 2015, he was released in 2009, only 3 purchasable.
See Warlord's comment.
3 skins, last skin 2015.
He seems to be getting the bad end of the draw constantly. He hasn't had a skin since 2015, but also had a 4 year wait between his 2011 Skin to the 2015 skin. So definitely him, since only 3 are purchasable anyway.
3 skins, last in 2015.
Ya know his drill. 3 skins?
Then of course, my little Kindred. Last skin was in 2016. Why has she not been given any love? Because she's underplayed like some other champs who have a bunch of skins? Idk.

So my top few that are deserving, Probably Kindred , Aatrox , Taliyah , Bard , Kassadin , Yorick , TahmKench , Ivern (even though he's still considered "new," he hasn't been provided a skin since release.)

Like Ezrael has 11 skins now, versus where some other heroes only have 2. MF has 12 skins now. Annie has 11, I know she hasn't received a skin since her Hextech one and super galaxy. Then you have Raka who is to receive 2 skins back-to-back, which is a total of 9 skins. Lulu also received 2 back-to-back skins. not that she needed them. /shrug. I'm glad Mundo is finally getting a skin.
