There is a certain prestige that goes with having legacy skins. It's like 'oh, this guy is oldskool!'

I understand the dissatisfaction at Riot's move here, but at the same time, I can't help but think that it's a good thing that I can get my hands on some cool-looking skins.

good for you sure, but imagine if you had those skins and riot basically spit in your face and the entire idea of legacy skins, because that's basically what they're doing

I don't think I can ever justify buying a legacy skin again, just because the meaning is pointless, they're not really legacy because chances are riot will bring them back
Thanks for the Signature MissMaw!

Probably just going to get Amumu and Nidalee. So sad they don't have some of the old Halloween skins, I joined LoL on around Dec/Jan of 2011/2012, and I love the Halloween and Chirstmas skins. :(

Thanks to jhoijhoi and LaCorpse for the amazing sigs!

For me they are just good skins, and that's why I want some of them. Basic as that. No disrespect to you "elders" but I like the chance to get a few.
If you for some reason want to follow my ranked journey to gold, you can do it Here.

I am against asking for rep, only rep me if you think I contributed well or said something wise.

I think it's unfair to those who have already bought the skins.
I'm mad that people can get The Magnificent Twisted Fate since it's my favorite.
Especially at a discount... give me 910 RP back.
If this comment was helpful, +Rep is always appreciated.

From MoneyPenny:
Quoted:
Legacy Skins

Legacy Skins are skins that are only available for a limited amount of time upon release, after which they will become unavailable for purchase and be placed into our Legacy Vault. Some, but not necessarily all, Legacy Skins will be re-released from the Vault for limited runs in the League of Legends Store. Again, we will always announce in advance when we plan to re-release any of these skins. Current Legacy Skins include the Snowdown Showdown 2011 collection and the 21 classic skins that were retired in November.

Moving forward, all holiday skins will be Legacy Skins, but those prior to Snowdown Showdown 2011 are Limited Edition Skins and won’t be making a comeback in the Store.

http://na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=1621978

They always planned to put legacy skins back into the store for sales, but perhaps not to this volume.

I think you're mistaking "Legacy" to "Limited Edition"
Limited Edition skins (pre2011 holiday skins, world event skins, skins like Human Ryze, Black Alistar) are never available to anyone ever now, people who have them are unique little snowflakes

inb4 everybody refunds that ugly rocketeer tristana and get's the legendary one instead :(
it's quite "rare" and it was cool that I was one of those that had it.

Well.. I guess I still got UFO Corki and Human Ryze + Silver Kayle :3

Rocketeer Tristana is not ugly O.o
Anyways, I consider it the "AP Tristana" skin.
