Riot, you don't do Traditional Skins for VGUs anymore. Buuut.. how about making Traditional Chromas?
You could probably do pretty neat "Traditional Chromas" for Sion and Galio, at least! Maybe even Fiora, Tristana, Karthus and Janna! :)

I thought about this too and think that its a really logical thing: Riot said they won't do any more Traditional skins, because the effort of creating them wasn't really worth it for them, since these skins are rarely used. Chromas however need much less effort to make and this way Riot could please everybody who prefers the original color scheme.
It's a win-win situation ;)
I'll personally never would pay for chromes as a replacement for 'traditional skin', especially when it's for content removed/replacement I had been invested in and even paid for already. It'd feel bad, like scam/greedy or something. Now... if I was new to League, I could have seen myself buying chromas for old designs 'before' my time, but never ones I personally miss.
I guarantee you if Riot started doing that... a lot of the people unhappy about characters being removed from the game/replaced would feel taken advantage of and more upset. Asking someone to buy what they 'lost' as a poor imitation... isn't going to sit right. The short time 'Traditional Skins' happened they tried to make them look as close as possible and most importantly had the original voice. Tho I suppose people who didn't mind too much and just liked the old a 'little' would be happy with it tho...
