Conclusion:
Queen Ashe is a fantastic skin for fans of the Frost Archer: it expands on her lore with a delicate and elegant look. The dress is the most relevant element as it alters her aesthetic with class and doesn’t hinder her performance. The rich bow and crown provide the final touches culminating in a unique skin. If you are a fan of Ashe then you should, at least, give Queen Ashe a chance.
Jade Dragon Wukong embellishes the Monkey King with a touch of mysticism thanks to discrete decoration and subtle flames. The result is actually appealing though not as striking or cohesive as it could be expected. In the end, it’s a great skin for Wukong fans with a distinct Asian style.
King Tryndamere is the last monarch to visit. It’s a straightforward skin: adorned armour and sword along a crown on top. Nonetheless, it also ties into the Barbarian King’s lore and the overall appearance is reasonable. In consequence, we have a rather nice skin at a low price; which makes it quite a good option.

Conclusion:
Fish, fish, Fizz and a giant shark is an original way of changing IP farming for fishing: such trident and company have their uses. Of course, we can get all spiritual and instead rely on Irelia: her blades can do the farming though she’ll rather be dashing around instead. The champ is also here and, as always, noteworthy but in this case for not being the best option. Jax might terrify warriors with his lamppost but, in terms of farming, it won’t take much to unlock him with just IP.
As far as looks are concerned, those that count the days until Void Fizz’s arrival have an interesting prospect here. Conversely, those interested instead on a peculiar Fisherman could feel out of the water: it was discounted by the end January. Tundra explorers don’t have it easy either due to a December sale and an August discount may not be enough to make an Atlantean visit anytime soon.
Irelia faces similar problems as an Infiltrator because of a sale on November. Her Frostblade was offered on October so that’s another one to discard. Additionally, the September Aviator apparition isn’t convincing. So, all that remains is to see if her Nightblade will reach a year without a sale; we’ll see next April.
Finally, we can rest assured that we won’t have to suffer from Jax’s Vandal tendencies due to an early January discount. However, December says that his meditative Temple manners won’t be at hand as well. His gladiatorial, September activity means that Jaximus might yet have to wait and August doesn’t help towards becoming a Nemesis. It seems like the champ will have to be content with classic pummelling.
