New skins

West Leona, Mordekaiser, Varus, Talon and Katarina

The West Family was created in 2011 with the release of Twisted Fate West. A very popular range with players, Riot Games has since continued to create new skins on this theme for many champions. We can think of Ashe, Darius and Hecarim of the West which were released at the end of 2019. In July 2020, the studio had given the cover with two new appearances for Irelia and Senna.

This time again, Riot Games is putting the dishes in the big ones with 5 new cosmetics for Leona, Mordekaiser, Varus, Talon and Katarina. Namely that Talon, the Blade of Darkness, will receive a prestige edition.

We’ve been waiting for it, it’s definitely back, the western skins family. Five new League of Legends champions have therefore been chosen to integrate this theme which is very popular with players.

Worlds 2021 Skins

On November 6, the eleventh edition of the League of Legends World Championships crowned the Chinese team EDward Gaming against DAMWON Kia – defending champion. After a short year in South Korea, the trophy had therefore returned to Chinese soil.

The players therefore chose Graves, Viego, Zoe, Aphelios and Yuumi to celebrate their victory.

After an initial leak within the Chinese League of Legends community, Riot Games confirmed tonight the Worlds 2021 skins celebrating Edward Gaming’s victory over DAMWON Kia.
