Martial arts, revolvers, bow and arrows are all effective ways of defence but they come at a cost. Thankfully, this weekend we have a sale that helps with that little matter, so let’s give it a quick look.

Conclusion:
There are skins that appear simple but that reveal their complexity after some time. Muay Thai Lee Sin looks like a re-model but the amount of new animations effectively defines a clear and unique identity. It may not be a skin with a dazzling visual display but it’s one with a lot to offer; especially for martial arts fans.
As a skin Cowgirl Miss Fortune is a mixed bag. On the one hand it has a distinct Wild West style with a touch of humour. On the other hand it also feels somewhat revealing as an outfit for the Bounty Hunter. In the end, it’s certainly an enticing skin but due to the implementation it might not appeal to everyone.
A low price is no impediment for a skin to shine. Woad Ashe is a great example of that with its attractive model and re-coloured particles. The essence is kept but the aesthetic is nicely altered. The result stands apart visually and is a wonderful option for anyone with an interest in Ashe.

Conclusion:
To avoid farming technology can be of great use. Therefore, Jayce can be of great help as long as you stand his personality. If you prefer someone with a more pleasing disposition then Caitlyn will gladly give you a hand, or long arm, even if her skills aren’t tailored for the task. The remaining option is to embrace nature and let its animal spirits guide you. That may work for a monk with magical powers but for others a bit of IP will suffice.
For a fame-seeking inventor looks are of prime importance. That’s why Jayce is ready to dress well in and out of battle. His Debonair suit was made more affordable on February and his Full Metal armour on December. This means that, in all probabilities, we won’t be seeing him around sales anytime soon.
As an efficient law enforcer Caitlyn recognizes the value of a good disguise. That’s why her Sheriff outfit was discounted last March. However, we need to go to last year to see a discount on her Arctic Warfare and Officer gear; on October and September, respectively. Chances of a sale increase little by little but it’ll take a while for her to catch this one.
Someone able to channel the powers of animal spirits shouldn’t be too concerned with appearance but Udyr’s ethereal companions also like to look good. However, the frugal life of a monk would explain why last November was when we could see his Primal side on sale. His Black Belt gi was offered on August so it has a better opportunity of returning. Still, for most it’ll be a long wait until the former appears.
