Worlds hits the Rift: Pick'em Rewards

JohnnyFallDown·Sep 19, 2017·2 votes·1,016 views

The reward for the Pick'ems are pretty much the same as last year, a full set of Ultimate skins. Since the likelihood of picking a perfect Worlds bracket is so slim, wouldn't it be a little more spicy if the winner(s) got to pick their reward?

I will be honest, as cool as the ultimate skins are, if you don't play those 4 champs are you really winning anything? I submit that it would be really hype if you got to 'pick' any skin as your pick'em reward, including limited skins. I can tell you that if I made the perfect bracket I would love to get my hands on some or one of the past victorious skins (Victorious Elise for me, please!) or limited release skins like king ramus, black alistar, or ufo corki, or the original PAX skins. Or if you don't like those skins just about any other skin that floats your boat and makes you feel like it was worth.

Thoughts?

Would love to hear a riot response on this.

Much love all.

Tip: Never bet against a Korean team. Korean vs. Korean game? Pick SKT.

What about the rest of the Fantasy bracket where it all falls apart hilariously every freaking year?

Never put your money on NA. G2-4. LMS are the Korean killers, but they can't beat the other regions most of the time. China? Just assume they'll beat everyone other than Korea.

Honestly i think worlds teams, prior victorious skins, championship skins would fit better thematically than ultimate skins.

As it's esports related they should give out all of the esport skins instead, Much higher odds to hit a champ you'd use. A lot of the esport skins are ugly anyways and arent super popular except for the current SKT ones or SSG talon which are good.
