So Riot - we vote on 3 Tristana skins, but don't get to vote on Ivern's completely random ass skin?

Tristana has a LARGE skin library. Basically any of those 3 skins would have worked for her because they appeal to different people for different reasons, but there are other options for those who's choice didn't win. Either way, no one is dramatically let down if their choice didn't win.

Then we get to this new .... Ivern .... skin. Dunkmaster. A concept so far removed from Ivern's thematic that it should be in another game entirely. It's Mordekaiser to what Maokai is. It's Jarvan IV to what Swain is. It's A COMPLETE deviation and dramatic off course from who Ivern is, and it makes 0% sense on him. He doesn't dunk. Hell, he doesn't even come off the ground except to skip. Yes, SKIP. Like a child on a playground. Which apparently you confused with dunking on a basketball court.

Why didn't you just pick a Tristana skin to make and roll with it, and let us vote on an Ivern skin? Words cannot describe how utterly disappointing and wrong this Ivern skin feels. Not even the failed Sewn Chaos skins felt like this. Send it back, we want more options. This is just wrong.

Yeah, this is worse then Yorick getting his half-assed Arclight skin

The Sewn Chaos skins were 200x better than this mess of an Ivern skin

I mean, Riot is known to take inspiration from/make community concepts, so I have no idea why they didn't do that with Ivern cause I've seen some pretty cool shit for him. Like, fuck the vote. Just Google "Ivern skin concepts", close your eyes, and point. There you go.

We shoulda gotten Dunkmaster Tristana and then picked from a sci-fi, adventure, or demonic skin for Ivern.

Entitled, conceited, and narrow

I'm just surprised after all this time since Dunkmaster Darius (nearly 5 years), out of all the champs, the next Dunkmaster skin goes to Ivern? This is how they want to expand the skinline? Uh.....Ok, I guess. Was this really the best theme the skins team could give Ivern as his 1st skin post-release (which was almost 2 1/2 years ago)? Or did they just do this to shut people up so they can give Jinx 20 more skins without hearing people bitch about Ivern (because we'll move on to bitching about another champ)?

If they cancelled those sewn chaos skins that were nowhere near as bad as this one, they'll cancel this one too, right...?

they appeal to different people for different reasons

You didn't get what you want now you're mad, skin's dope.
