Conclusion:
Simply put, Dragonwing is Corki’s current best skin in no small part thanks to its eye-catching particles. The model is detailed and interesting, which adds to the skin, but the real star is the particles. Fans of Corki shouldn’t miss it.
In spite of its price, Chrome Rammus is only a re-texture. The colours aren’t bad but a mere change of textures has no place at this price point. Even on sale, it’s a skin that’s better left for the most dedicated.
Blitzcrank’s physique lends itself to a comical depiction of a boxer. Boom Boom delivers that but without much elaboration. It’s not a bad skin at its price but there are better options.

Conclusion:
To avoid farming IP the best choice is Thresh: his lantern will gladly receive the souls of your enemies. Less ominous and more exact is Orianna: she helps avoid a good deal of IP as well but it’s reachable with some effort. The lady of the wilds, Nidalee, is the final option: it’s not a bad choice but her IP price is reasonable so it’s not so problematic.
Until the end of October, straight from the Legacy Vault, we find Championship Thresh giving a blue tone to his soul collection. Those that prefer things in green will have to be patient. By the end of September the Deep Terror was around so it’ll take a good while to calm the vendors.
Orianna knows how to dress for the situation so fans of TPA should take notice. That aside, recently she was Sewn Chaos as a rag doll and in April she embraced her Gothic side. All that is left then is for her to display her Bladecraft, which hasn’t been seen since September 2013, and we’re set for the year.
Versatility is essential to survive in the wild. Nidalee knows it well which is why it was not surprise to find her as a Headhunter in June or even as a French Maid in April. For some reason, it’s been a good while since her liking of Shurima was shown in her Pharaoh outfit; since September 2013 in fact. So it looks like we need a lot of patience this time.
