Somebody fell, or slipped, in the tundra and now wants payback. It certainly isn’t nice to abort an expedition because of a tricky encounter. Therefore, before anybody goes boom let’s take a look at this week’s sale.

Conclusion:
In Tristana’s own words: “look at the pretty explosion” but in this case explosions. The new particles refine the look of her auto-attacks and abilities while the model has a modern and attractive aspect. For fans of Tristana and kabooms this is an excellent choice.
Being neither funny nor interesting, Tundra Fizz’s concept ends up as whimsical. The idea is implemented but without any remarkable features. All in all, it’s not a bad skin but nothing special either.
Frosted Ezreal could be described as the Emotional Explorer. While the idea could’ve been to have ice as a theme the result is actually dark clothes and make-up. It has a distinct look but it doesn’t seem to be for everyone.

Conclusion:
Charge into the fields and unleash your boar to avoid all IP farming; that’s what Sejuani would do. Vayne is definitely a more subtle case as she’ll strike from the shadows and mesh back into them; which is effective but not as striking. Finally, better not to take any bets around Twisted Fate; his IP needs are low enough anyway.
While Sejuani awaits the support of the Bear Cavalry it’s good to remember that there are other options. On July, her fearsome Darkrider armour sent chills down some spines but that’s not the only thing that does. Her Sabretusk outfit has been without a discount since August 2013 so that’s another cause for goosebumps.
Vayne, know by many as a Night Hunter but also know by many other names. According to her whereabouts she was the Vindicator on July. On February, she was a charming Heartseeker and also in January. In some circles she’s called the Aristocrat, there were some high profile missions in December. In times of need, as last November, she could be called the Dragonslayer too: dark should fear her.
Now, deal but careful what Twisted Fate may have up his sleeves. One of these days betting will take him to the Underworld but not just yet. So, it’s not unusual to find him having a game at High Noon; like in May. You could also find him playing with Musketeers, like in March, or promoting the game as a Jack of Hearts; as he did in February. Even Tango isn’t safe, as in January, as long as there’s good competition. Until he learns his lesson, we’ll have to wait.
