Conclusion:

With elegant but serious clothing and a lethal new shotgun Mafia Graves captures the intended style quite well. The new model isn’t revolutionary but is effective; despite the newsboy cap. The shotgun is also supported by new ejected shells as well as sounds which add to the consistency of the skin. All in all, it’s a really good skin that fans of Graves would enjoy.

A clever reimagining is provided by Sad Robot Amumu. The new model along the particles and sounds, as well as the processed voice-over, let the skin have a clear and appealing personality. Said personality also respects the core of Amumu without being tied to its characteristics. For fans of the Sad Mummy this is a fresh and interesting take.

Simple but eloquent, Marquis Vladimir dresses the Crimson Reaper like an aristocrat. The elegance contrasts with his visceral magic and disguises the wolf in sheep’s clothing. The changes are limited to model changes but the result is satisfying and the price is low. Therefore, it’s a wonderful option for fans of Vladimir.

Champions:

Gnar
Gnar Splash Art
975 -> 487 RP / 6300 IP
Orianna Twitch
Orianna Splash Art Twitch Splash Art
880 -> 440 RP / 4800 IP 790 -> 395 RP / 3150 IP

Conclusion:

Gnar smash, if mega angry, if not then he can help save a good amount of IP, for a price. Orianna is also a good choice for that endeavour and she can be very precise too. Twitch may also have similar intentions but the rat just isn’t as effective; his IP price is reachable so that’s worth considering.

While still getting acquainted with the vast population in the League Gnar hasn’t had much time to care about sales. Eventually we’ll see his Dino costume discounted but, for now, we have to be patient.

Late in 2014, Orianna paid us some visits and displayed her particular grace in various manners. In December she danced as a Gothic doll, in November wearing a Bladecraft outfit and in September styled as Sewn Chaos. Sadly, it seems we won’t be seeing the Lady of Clockwork soon.

While his options have been severely reduced Twitch still has some alternatives to his classic venom. However, they were seen a long time ago: the beginning of 2014. In April he showed how well he works in a team, as a Gangster, and in February he let loose his Vandal side. Thus, we should be seeing the rat soon; he should remember to bring some extra cheese.
