LoL Star Guardian Quinn, behind there is a graph of the champions longest without a skin graph

Skins are one of the fun parts of League of Legends — they let you change how your favorite champion looks and feel different when you play. But did you know some champions haven’t had a new skin in a very long time? We’re talking years and years. This post lists the LoL champions longest without a skin as of 2025, based on the latest official data. We’ll explain how we figured it out, show a list of the top 10 champs, tell you why these champs are waiting so long, and give you some predictions. If you play any of these champs, you’ll see why they might still be stuck in cosmetic limbo. Let’s jump in.

How this list was calculated

We used the official skin catalog on the League Wiki and community trackers that check “days since skin” to build this list. We only counted full new skins for each champion (so not just chromas or tiny recolors). If a champion’s last skin was years ago, they go high on the list. We then pulled the most recent “last skin release date” for each champ and calculated the number of days since.

Why does this matter? Because skins show which champions the devs keep working on and which ones get left behind. If your main is one of the champions waiting longest for a skin, now you’ll know why and what you might expect next.

How to read this table

  • Total Skins means how many full skins the champ has in total.
  • Last Skin Date is the date they received their most recent full skin.
  • Days Since gives you how long it’s been since then.
  • This helps you see who is waiting longest and why your favorite champ might feel forgotten.

Champion deep dives — top 5 most ignored

Quinn from League of Legends with a timeline showing champions longest without a skin as of 2025, highlighting 1,202 days since her last skin.

1. Quinn — Bird pilot on hold

Quinn hasn’t had a new skin since July 28, 2022 — that’s over a thousand days now. For a champion with only 6 skins, that’s a really long time. Why? Quinn’s role (marksman/roam), her unique design, and maybe lower popularity compared to big meta champs mean Riot might not have put her high on the skin list yet. Fans often say she fits a bunch of themes (steampunk, aerial, etc.), but she still waits.

2. Sejuani — Glacier queen left behind

Sejuani’s last skin was on November 15, 2022. She has 12 skins already — a solid number — but for how long she’s been around, another one feels overdue. Big characters like her might wait due to large models, heavy animations, and theme-fit issues.

3. Galio — The gargoyle giant

Galio’s last skin dropped on January 12, 2023. With 9 skins total, you’d think he’d keep pace. But his giant model, big animations, and role as a support/tank hybrid make skins more complex to release, which likely adds delay.

4. Kennen — Lightning fox with no fresh coat

Kennen’s last skin was on February 24, 2023. Ten skins isn’t low, but for a top/mid pick with flashy potential, many players expected more. His small model and high mobility add a challenge for skin artists.

5. Kled — One-man show with big beast

Kled has only 4 skins, and the latest one came out on April 6, 2023. That’s ridiculously few for how long he’s been in the game. The reasons? His mount-dismount mechanic adds complexity; the animations for both Kled and his mount (Skaarl) double the work.

Unique insight: Often what slows new skins isn’t lack of interest — it’s the cost and complexity of making them. New skin lines need champions that fit a theme, have manageable models/animations, and where devs expect return on investment. So a low-pick champ or one with funny mechanics might wait longer.

Why do some champions go so long without skins

There are several repeated reasons why a champion might be waiting:

Low pick rate & business math

If a champion isn’t picked much in ranked or pro play, Riot may put them on a lower priority. Skins cost time and money to make, so they prioritize champs with big audiences.

Model complexity & special mechanics

Champions with large or weird models (Galio, Tahm Kench) or extra mechanics (Kled’s mount) take more effort. If you release a skin and the champion gets a rework soon after, the skin might look bad later — something Riot tries to avoid.

Theme fit & event timing

Skins often drop when a big event or theme is active. If a champion doesn’t fit a theme, they might wait for the “right” one.

Champions who finally got skins after long waits

Some champions waited for years and then got new skins — that gives hope. For example, a champ might get reworked, then publish a major skin line to “catch up.” These success stories show it’s not hopeless, especially if the community stays vocal.

Predictions: who might get a skin next (2025 watchers)

Based on the data and trends, look for these signs: champions with long wait + decent pick rate + upcoming event theme. If one of those aligns, they’ll probably get a skin soon.

How to check a champion’s “days since skin”

You can use tools like DaysSinceSkin.com and the League Wiki skin pages to look up the last skin date for any champion. This helps you see who’s next in line or whether your main is really overdue.

FAQs

Q: What does “days since skin” mean?

A: It’s how many days have passed since a champion’s last full skin release. Websites like the League Wiki and DaysSinceSkin help you check it.

Q: Why hasn’t my champion gotten a skin yet?

A: Reasons vary — low pick rate, complicated model, or waiting for the right theme/event.

Q: Which champions are longest without a skin right now?

A: According to the League wiki data, Quinn is at 1,202 days, followed by Sejuani (1,092), Galio (1,034), and Kennen (991).
