It's almost as if they make skins for popular champs because they make money and yorick skins don't.

BarbaJhiniMay 31, 20173 votes

It is exactly like this and they also said it lol it is not worth such an effort for a yorick skin.

FairyfleurMay 31, 20172 votes

A Yorick skin is in the works.

BarbaJhiniMay 31, 20172 votes

Might be even if the leak u probably referring at was fake, still more popular champs get more skin cause they get more money while it is not worth to make skins for less played champs and champs that will soon get a rework.

No, it was confirmed in a Nexus post.

I feel like we’re tackling some major pain points this year and feel confident committing to you that you will be receiving skins for Cassiopeia, Viktor, Yorick, Illaoi (and more) over the next 12 months.

Yeah, and so is the Tribunal. Riot doesn't care about what their community wants, only what gets them money.

And the tribunal had been down for 3 years and ever since it wass taken down for "maintinence" it was promised that it would be up at first within a month, then 3, then 6, and ever since then "soon"TM. They are known for promising timelines that do not actually happen.

Didn't wuks just post something about Tribunal V2?

I didn't look thru it due to time but I'm quite sure he did.

NiceTryViJun 1, 20171 votes

I did, and it isn't even close to being the tribunal. It's a half-hearted, bi-weekly vote on the boards about whether or not we agree that Riot made the right call. Its isn't voting to punish or acquit, not even close. Not to mention the fact that my original point about timelines not being fulfilled still stands true.

Skins ProjectJun 1, 20171 votes

First. Don't double post.

Do see above or quote it even. Do NOT double post.

Hun. Insulting ain't helping.

That "half-hearted, bi weekly vote" is still doing SOMETHING.

Compared to your complaints doing nothing. Puts things in perspective doesn't it?

If you don't like something, try to do something about it. Just complaining isn't helping anyone.

Insulting everything that occurs isn't helping. An effort is an effort, be it overdue or "well done"

NiceTryViJun 1, 20171 votes

First, I will double post and you can't stop me.

I WILL double post.

There, that's what you sound like.

And hun, I'm not insulting, I am telling the truth. If that insults you, you're the one with a problem. There wasn't even angry speech in that response, so I don;t know where you're pulling that from. The vote is not doing ANYTHING. The tribunal was the way of actually punishing or acquitting accused players. All this is is Riot saying "This is what happened, how do you perceive this?" It is not even close to the Tribunal, it's a damn opinion poll. And here is a wake up call for you. Posting on the boards is all we can do, genius. I am not a Riot employee, I can't make changes, making my thoughts heard on the boards is the only thing I can do.

And if you're gonna try to be all high and mighty and lecture someone about being insulting, try to refrain from being a condescending ass in the very same post. mkay? mkay.

Skins ProjectJun 2, 20172 votes

First.

I'm not referring to insulting me.

Insulting riot for not "doing anything" isn't going to make them do anything is it now?

Second. "A damn opinion poll" is doing more then you ranting about it on boards.

Don't work for riot? Cool. https://www.riotgames.com/careers have fun.

Check out "The Verdict" event going down in Player Behavior boards.

NiceTryViJun 1, 20171 votes

ModAcademy KaynJun 1, 20171 votes

Old Tribunal isn't viable anymore with this large a community. What the Verdict is meant to do is see what the Community's values are. What is seen as negative and what is seen as positive.

NiceTryViJun 1, 20171 votes

So you admit that it is not the Tribunal then, after just claiming it is. Gotcha.

ModAcademy KaynJun 1, 20171 votes

I never claimed it was? I just said "Check out The Verdict Event". It's similar, but the Tribunal isn't coming back.

NiceTryViJun 1, 20171 votes

It's not similar, it's the exact opposite. All it is is giving feedback after the fact, not giving out the punishment or acquitting the accused.

Stay strong my fellow grumpy monks, we must be like Yorick and survive until we get a skin, it could be days, weeks, years, EONS! But we must stay strong we must fight on. Raise your spades high!

GreenLoreMay 31, 201710 votes

Ah come on,Yasuo has only 3 skins,its not like he has too many skins already.

BladeShadowsMay 31, 20172 votes

I was waiting to see this. Like seriously...? We're complaining about Yas finally getting a skin?

EnvonyxMay 31, 20172 votes

"Finally" Other champions have waited much longer, and arent considered cancerous or annoying and banned so much by the community, im abit biased cuz im a sol main and he was released more recently than yasuo, but charcters like illaoi and sol etc need more skins than just their release skin in my opinion. Yasuo already had blood moon which was a great skin, felt like the focus could have shifted for a bit.

GreenLoreMay 31, 20176 votes

In general I'd say that the fact that A-sol,Illaoi,etc.need a new skin doesn't mean that yasuo shouldn't get a new skin. If anything Riot should try to give less skins to those who have already a good amount of skins.

EnvonyxMay 31, 20172 votes

The only reason Im willing to argue is because blood moon is such a nice skin that I didnt feel like he should have got an 1820 yet you know? Especially since it was last yearr

Yi's skin release cadence:

Release date: October 2009 Assassin: December 2009 Chosen: Jun 2010 Ionia: September 2010 Samurai: March 2011 Headhunter: February 2012 PROJECT: September 2015 Cosmic Blade: April 2017

Most of Yi's skins are cheap, have very few or no particle changes and were released in a time where there were far fewer champions to distribute them too, so chances to get a skin would have naturally been higher.

I don't get this reply and the fact the reply is being upvoted while the original commenter downvoted. I mean they were right to say that Yi only has 2 skins recently (and one of them was from 2 years ago). It's not wrong, unless you count half a decade ago, 'recent'. Sure it's an okay cycle, and that's about it, and the original commenter said nothing on it, they merely said Yi is not as saturated with new skins releases as some others, which is true. So what's with the comment proving them right in order to disprove them, or something, here? What's going on lol?

Blakers1Jun 1, 20172 votes

The boards are happening. Nothing logical ever happens in this cesspool. Just look at 90% of the "My main is gutted Q_Q Rito es bad!!" posts.

SharjoJun 1, 20172 votes

Just wanted to provide historical context to how Yi's skin releases have worked, since the crux of this thread meant he was being complained about for having too many. There was nothing more to it than that.

Big LincolnJun 1, 20173 votes

If I'm not wrong Tryndamere have not either gotten a new skin since 2015 (nightmare)

SharjoMay 31, 201715 votes

He got beasthunter in 2016 (750) and chemtech this year (975). Trynd gets fairly consistent skin releases. Think the only year he didn't get one was 2013. Conversely all of his skins are 975 or lower with the exception of Demonblade, which is an old legendary of standards reminiscent of modern day 975/1350 skins.

mr Boombastic787May 31, 20172 votes

Yeah I forgot about beasthunter, also I didn't play befor nightmere got released. Thank you for correcting me :D
