new lore and how it changes champion looks
With the release of new VGUs , overhaul of regions, possible new regions and new characters, lore is playing a big part in the league universe. With what we've seen from all the overhauled regions, each has its own plot that it follows and what happens during the story can sometimes alter champions. with gankplank going from http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/3/38/Gangplank_CaptainSkin.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/320?cb=20160518020135 to http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/8/80/Gangplank_OriginalSkin.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/320?cb=20160518165402 the new stories sometimes get new skins of before and after the events of the lore or even events pre-existioning from current events like http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/f/ff/Twisted_Fate_OriginalSkin.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/320?cb=20160518203714 & http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/9/9b/Graves_OriginalSkin.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/320?cb=20160519040346 was once http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/9/9e/Twisted_Fate_CutpurseSkin.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/320?cb=20160522030818 . there are still some regions that need update and more could be added , so the current plots of the updated regions wont be touched for a while, but when they are we can expect to see new skins for champions during the event or even champions going through a vgu that links with the new story. Nevertheless we can only speculate and speculate i shall on new looks or skins that may come once we get further along in the story of these regions
