OH WOW!? NEW AHRI, AKALI, KAI, AND EVE SKINS! NOT SURPRISED AT ALL!

Why are we all not surprised that champions with newer models, that were just released, and are the apple of Riot's eye . . . . are all getting skins. I am so excited for another Ahri skin. I cannot wait to own skins for champions that just received a model update or was released just a few months ago. You are really going all out, Riot Games. You are really convincing every single one of us that you are going to make skins for our champions. Don't tell me in 3 years you will give my main, Karma, another skin? Don't tell me, Zilean will be getting a skin in 2020!? Wow, you are really working hard on a Xerath skin, Riot. Don't tell me, all of these skins will have a 975RP price tag and not be creative? Great job!

You have 141 champions in LoL and you still manage to only make skins for the same 20 champions a year. I mean, what's the point anymore? What's the point in playing this game when you are only going to create content for specific champions, give all of your attention and resources towards an update for specific champions, and actually spend time and money on the same champions every single year. I really wonder what you guys think of your community if you cannot even be bothered to treat every single champion with the same respect you do for the same ones every year. Two Eve skins in 1 year?! EGAF! Kai'Sai was just released a few months ago, but she is getting a skin already?! EGAF! Akali just got a VGU a couple months ago and you are already working on content for her?! EGAF! Oh look, another Ahri skin that I need in my arsenal of Ahri skins that gets released every single year. EGAF!!!!!!!!!!!

No spine, Riot Games. Not a single one of you Developers have a spin at this point lol. You really don't. You don't have integrity, nerve, or a spine. I mean, look how long it took you to give us a Heimer skin and that was only because the LoL community banned together to force you to make one. You didn't have this skin in Development and you probably didn't have this skin even in your brains a year ago. News flash Riot Games, we already know you don't care and you will just give us another skin for the same champion the next patch cycle. If it isn't about a popular champion or a new and flashy champion, you really don't give a crap. It is clearly evident.

You have the power to make any champion approachable, marketable and interesting. You choose to only do this for select champions because God forbid one champion have something iconic on them and you remove it, to use that as an excuse to never give them any content or a rework that matters.

(BTW, if you think these skins are going to help your argument that you are not sexist . . . . you did the exact opposite of what you are supposed to be conveying to us. These skins are extremely sexist and over-sexualized. I'm 29 year old gay man and I can these skins are too raunchy and out of place.)

My main didn't get a skin! Such favoritism! WTF Riot?!

They are giving skins to champions they said they were going to. They promised certain champions skins this year, and that's what they're doing. Sorry your main didn't get one this year, but instead of throwing a fit about it, try waiting until next year. They might have Karma/Zilean/Xerath skins in development. If you just be patient about it instead of slamming the favoritism button, maybe your champs will get skins.

Why are people so thunderstruck that popular champions get skins? Popular skins have to sell for UNPOPULAR champions to get skins that won't sell as much. You can't make profit if what you've designed isn't even breaking even.

Chill fam lol, you realize that not every champion is going to get equal attention that's just stupid for business. Ivern can't get a skin every year because it would barely sell compared to more popular champs. Riot has delivered on their promise that they will try to pay more attention to champs that haven't gotten skin and I'm happy that they did. If you aren't going to be somewhat reasonable then why should anyone listen to you?
