No, they are catering because they are not open to something like the link I provided. There are probably a few thousand people that grabbed said unavailable skins back then. Now Riot's following has probably grown to the millions. So for Riot to refuse to sell something to its new fanbase is catering to the old who are being selfish.

Shamrock Malphite is on the list.
Snowdown Showdown 2011 skins are legacy, not limited.

That's what I said he wasn't seasonal so he's coming back now but he's a St. Pattys day so they brought him back cause of it and I never said they were limited but seasonal Lagacy won't comeback until their respective holidays like 2011 skins might make an appearence this snowdown showdown

Just to clear things up are the legendary skins going to be 50% off as well? I know that normally they don't go on sale but it's just a bit un-clear in the statement.

There is a reason these skins retired. They are not worth their legendary status. At all.

I don't see why there should be an exception.

That's the plan. They were retired because they were not up to the quality standards of newer Legendary skins, and like all retired Legacy skins, they are eligible to go on sale at a price that better reflects the current quality standards. Those who bought them at full price owned them for months or years longer than those who will have the opportunity to buy them on sale, and therefore got more value out of them.

As always, Legendaries that are currently active in the store will not go on sale.

GG. As long as they cater to the old members instead of the new, as THEY are the ones bringing fresh money to the business, it's gg.
Yeah...quite disgusting. On one side they say these are limited and they "made a promise" not to sell them anymore. On the other side they go "Garena new thing wasn't around at the time so it's fair to them".

On one side you are already lying doesn't matter which option is the "most official".

Make up your mind Riot. If it is fair to let them have it why can't we? You are already screwing over the ones who got these skins in NA and EU.

Of course Riot will not react to this as they know they messed up so will just wait it out until we get tired of their indifference.
