Conclusion:
Despite the cartoon design of his Tommy Gun the suit manages to add a lot of class to the rat. As such, Gangster Twitch is a re-model with flaws but appealing despite the high price. Besides a new auto-attack sound the skin offers nothing else so fans are advised to rely on the sale.
The complex design of Frozen Terror Nocturne doesn’t clearly state the theme but with the help of the particles the skin comes into its own. There’s still a sense that the features don’t work as well as they could but they manage to be more than the sum of their parts. Because of this, fans of Nocturne and eye-catching skins will find much to like.
As a re-model at 520 RP Totemic Maokai isn’t a bad skin at all. The model changes also extend to the inimitable saplings but the totem designs appear disconnected and struggle to communicate its message. In the end, it’s a skin that doesn’t manage to convey its concept very clearly but that does feel different from the norm.
The first of the PROJECT skins is one that goes an extra step to deliver its theme. Besides the distinct particles and complementing sounds there are new animations and a few other touches to further the style. The result feels like a skin that does more than usual and that justifies its high price well enough. Being on sale, PROJECT: Yasuo is a great choice for fans of cyborg ronin.

Conclusion:
If IP is to be saved then we need someone that doesn’t hesitate to enter into action. Vi comes to the rescue undoubtedly but she would ask for some RP so as to repair her hextech fists afterwards, who would argue with her?
Prince Jarvan IV has no need for IP so he has no problem lending his services without such a fee yet he would ask for RP. That goes to prove that aristocrats aren’t beyond greed at all.
Finally, Shyvana has to keep her rage in check at all times and money problems don’t help. For that reason, she prefers to have a reasonable IP price that shouldn’t be an issue for most; including her.
Besides punching her way to success, Vi knows how to make a Debonair suit look good; though it’s too early to expect discounts. There isn’t much else to expect either as July saw her shine with a Neon Strike and June put things in order in her Officer uniform. Therefore, we won’t be seeing much Vi in a while; some may be sighing in relief.
It’s been a busy year for Jarvan IV: in May he fought as a Commando, in March he hunted like a Dragonslayer and in February he proved the might of the Darkforge. However, there’s still something left to wait for: his Warring Kingdoms adventures should be continued soon as we last heard of them in December.
Being the queen of the battlefield hasn’t prevented Shyvana from making her presence felt at the market. In fact her discounts burned with unequalled fury: August saw her primal Boneclaw style, June the unique glow of the Darkflame, April her practical Ironscale armour and March her magical Ice Drake guise. We won’t be seeing Shyvana for a good while then but hopefully she’ll be soaring nearby.
