Locking the best High Noon Urgot chroma behind a 1700 RP bundle paywall is ridiculous

Riot has been locking away "Ruby" chromas into bundles for a little bit now, which was already shitty. Pool Party Gangplank, in particular, has a ruby chroma with pineapple barrels instead of watermelon, and players had to buy all the other chromas to get it.

But with the High Noon Urgot (and Thresh) ruby chromas, you have to buy the bundle with all the chromas and two icons and a ward skin, coming to 1700 RP without counting the skin, 3100 RP total. IMO the ruby chroma is the only way to make the skin look halfway decent, but I'm not spending $10 for the skin and $15 for the chroma I want.

There wasn't enough outrage about the ruby chromas before but I think this is way beyond a step too far.

Here's the Urgot chroma video so you can see for yourself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69Xxy_Jf0mg
