Conclusion:
This week we have a rather good set of skins with different but interesting ideas behind them. Let’s give them a good look.
Sad Robot Amumu is a skin with an impressive array of additions and a definitely satisfying implementation. Truth be told, it’s not only a very effective skin at turning Amumu into a robot but it also carries the quality to be expected from a legendary product. Being on sale, there’s little reason to pass on this great skin; unless you can’t stand a maniacally depressive automaton.
Jaximus is a skin that garbs the Grandmaster at Arms as a Roman gladiator. The idea isn’t bad but the implementation lacks the necessary refinement to make the look stand out. It’s a skin with a nice concept but with an execution that isn’t up to the task. Still, it could appeal to fans of classic warriors.
Pharaoh Nidalee is a skin that turns the Bestial Huntress into a Pharaoh but one made in movie style and without much historical accuracy in mind. The result suffers from obvious exaggerations but accomplishes its objective. In the end, the skin has enough appeal so, considering its low price, it’s hardly a bad choice for Nidalee’s fans.

Conclusion:
There are many ways to avoid the IP farm and when asked about it the Machine Herald recommends a fully automated farm that would work by itself. He can take care of the manufacturing, for a fee; machines can be expensive. Besides being the best option to complete a champion roster his skins haven’t been on sale since last year. On top of this, Creator Viktor is looming on the horizon so there are a few good reasons to join the glorious evolution.
Jarvan IV is another good option is you don’t usually gather much IP. In terms of skins, Dragon Slayer and Commando are the only ones to have been discounted on 2013. Besides, Warring Kingdoms should eventually make his way to the realm of sales. All in all, there are a few good reasons to visit Demacia.
Finally, Evelynn’s low IP price doesn’t make a purchase very attractive. RP is better reserved to buy some pretty dresses for the Widowmaker like Shadow because Tango was already on sale. At any rate, she would love some additions to her wardrobe but, from the look of things, she and we will have to be patient.
