Is Riot's skin team biased? WITH EVIDENCE!

I don't know. You tell me.

These are the oldest 65 champs without skins from 10 months ago, and all the skins since then. http://i.imgur.com/317PJ4d.png

##Key White/black is normal Yellow means Hextech skin (Very rare) Red means new champion Underline means 1820+ skin

RED CIRCLE: Oldest skin-less champions.
BLUE CIRCLE: Newest skins.
PURPLE AREA: Oldest champions with new skins.

Basically, every champion who was waiting for a skin 10 months ago, and who actually got it. (51%).

Even with the key, I found this venn diagram extremely hard to follow. What do each of the circles represent?

Galio, Warwick and urgot all got updates to all of their skins. Also, this is fair. Some old champs got skins, some meta champs got skins. Riot are a business, they make skins that will sell to lots of players - but they also make skins for underplayed champs. Fair.

Put galio, urgot and Warwick in the new skins as the updates reworked their skins.

AurelionSol Taliyah item 3070

So old champs that can get skins : AurelionSol Aatrox Taliyah Cassiopeia Illaoi Galio JarvanIV RekSai Rengar Rumble Shen Viktor Vladimir Xerath Yorick Warwick

Blitzcrank got a Chroma.

Others need a rework, and skins would be 'wasted' on them. And what idiot made a Tryndamere skin, rework that thing.

I think its unfair to put Galio in that category, every one of his skins were updated and modernized with his rework.

Is a good work but missing someone...where is Ashe? °^°

Its called marketing, why would they make skins for champions that noone plays? Of course the popular ones like Ezreal and Ahri will get 20+ skins

Well done. +1 for the effort.

As much as I don't like to admit it, Riot is still a company. I'd like to see a really nice Yorick skin or something along those lines, but at the end of the day, they are just going to do what profits them the most. That's why we are getting another star guardian set of skins

As far as i know,Sivir has no hextech skin. Vayne and Annie do have it though. About prices (1820) i can't say anything cause i don't really care about that,but you could add the 3250 ones too. Udyr for examples has that spirit guard skin,it is old but it is a pricey one.

Anyway,some champions are harder to give more skins to,may be because human-like features spring more possibilities into mind,or because the ideas they had didn't seem so good afterall (Sewn chaos blitz and mumu,for example)

Anyway,since you said you're goin to keep working on this diagram,i can't wait to see the final result

There is a severe lack of Tahm Kench in that red bubble.
