Conclusion:
While some could find the idea too sugary, Bittersweet Lulu is a fitting and appealing skin with a good implementation. It’s not tremendously elaborate but it’s well designed so as to present Lulu’s whimsies with a new flavour. Fans of Lulu will find it a fine option.
It’s nothing more than a re-model but with a good concept behind it. Viking Tryndamere suits the barbarian’s nature trying to make him more rough and brave. However, he doesn’t omit decoration either which is somewhat peculiar. In the end, it’s a good skin that fans of Tryndamere will appreciate.
Without a doubt Valkyrie Leona is the most fantastic of her skins as it embraces the characteristics that Leona is supposed to combat. Her armour is light and impractical yet quite eye-catching. Regardless, it’s not such a great departure from her style and it’s also an attractive appearance. Considering its low price, there’s little reason for Leona’s fans to ignore this skin.

Conclusion:
Mayhem is the solution to IP farming this weekend: high-five Jinx and let the fun commence. Graves is a man that knows about destruction too but he’s not exactly the happy-go-lucky kind; still he can be of help to save a good amount of IP. The exact opposite would be Lux. If you like her cheerful disposition then you will find that even her IP price isn’t much of an obstacle.
Too busy causing chaos has relegated Jinx’s wardrobe to only one option. Her Mafia outfit was recently seen on sale this October. It was an offer that many couldn’t refuse but, for now, it’s also the only one.
Sometimes you need a certain king of man. Make Graves your Hired Gun and you’ll see; he sometimes even offers discounts like in March. If it’s something serious like a Jailbreak it will cost you as that’s something he doesn’t do often; since November 2013 actually. Strangely, it’s his Pool Party services that are the most expensive. He could say that fun isn’t his thing but it’s not as if he was suffering last September.
Have a positive attitude and let the light guide you; while burning enemies away. That’s the way Lux likes it so whether it’s in the Steel Legion, as this October, as a Sorceress, on August, or even on Imperial robes, like in May, she will light the way. When taking part in other endeavours, like that of a Spellthief or a Commando, nothing changes. However, we haven’t seen much of those things since 2013: in December and August, respectively.

Will you be doing an update on Singed’s skins? He’s receiving a texture update like the others but there seems to be new particles (specifically the snowball when flinging a champion into his W for Snowday Singed) as well as minor model changes (ex: Surfer Singed’s hair).
If relevant changes are made we certainly will update any skin review. At the very least, we’ll note them if they are noticeable; though they probably won’t change the rating if they aren’t significant enough.
