Conclusion:
This week’s sale is rather uneven so let’s cover it in parts. On the bright side, the skins on offer are certainly good choices. Prestigious LeBlanc and Coral Reef Malphite, in particular, offer interesting concepts with good executions. LeBlanc carries much of her classic style but it sure suits a magician’s show. Malphite’s look isn’t as elaborate as it could but it’s still distinct and attractive: also backed by new fitting particles.
Pentakill Sona has a unique identity and interesting aesthetic. However, while heavy metal is related to her musical nature it is a bit of a forced concept considering Sona’s quiet and calm personality. The look is clear albeit far from astounding yet for Sona’s fans it makes for a good option to complement her musical digressions.

Conclusion:
Unfortunately, those averse to IP farming will find this week to be quite a disappointment. The trio of discounted champions have quite reasonable IP prices which makes purchasing them an unattractive prospect. In fact, RP is better reserved for skins like Silverfang Akali, Dragonwing Corki or Jurassic Cho’Gath instead.
A purchase could be justified to get a faster champion collection start. Regardless, in such a case it should be worth considering some of the champion bundles available as they also offer appealing extras.
