Overview
This sale is rather peculiar as we are offered jelly, a sexy waitress to serve it and the fridge where the dessert is kept cold. Better give this all a look and see what’s going on here.

Conclusion:
Dangerously close to a re-colour, Special Weapon Zac is more than that but still feels dominated by the difference in colour. There are new particles to accompany the more aggressive design and this Zac surely stands apart from the classic one. However, while it’s a good option it also is one better reserved for fans.
Some would understandably shrug Battle Bunny Riven off as just another fetish. There’s some truth to that but the skin isn’t really revealing and incorporates some humour into the mix. The result isn’t really a sexualized style but the reference definitely remains. In conclusion, if you like the funny angle of the skin it’s an enjoyable option to hop around the battlefield.
While it’s certainly a modest choice, Freljord Rammus does hint at its icy theme. The problem is that the model changes are sparse and the result simplistic. In fact, it’s not much more than a re-colour; despite the new particles for Powerball. In the end, it’s a valid alternative to the classic style at a reasonable price.

Conclusion:
When the time comes for hard work then Sejuani proves that no odds are too great. Even if it’s farming IP, the Winter’s Wrath will be a reliable choice. As part of Wukong’s training, farming was used to test his determination. However, not everybody wants to put up with all his monkey business. The last option is Janna but she’s better hired with actual IP. Her powerful wind magic doesn’t help to avoid farming much even though it can very well knock undesirables away.
In terms of looks, the fee to join the Bear Cavalry won’t be reduced in a good while. The alternative is to get a Sabretusk mount but its August sale means that it’s necessary to wait. At least we could celebrate the one year away-from-sales anniversary of the Darkrider; this past 17th of May.
Moneky Kung Fu can be a deadly weapon and General Wukong knows it well: he offered his services at a discount at the end of April. Meditation is also necessary to complement the physical training which is why on late march there was a Jade Dragon sale. It’s all essential to prevent one from being dominated by emotion and losing control. The December eruption of Volcanic Wukong should be a good example.
Finally, in conjunction with her forecasting business Janna also has a varied line of clothing for the discerning female aeromancer. Her Tempest model was last seen on sale on February; which is rather recent. However, her Frost Queen outfit was discounted on December and her Hextech gear reaches a year without a sale this 24th. Therefore, there’s still a chance to get some of her exclusive clothing at a low price.
