Skins in practice mode

Because the splash makes a skin much cooler than it is.

Trying a skin in practice will let you see how ugly it is in game and you won't buy it.

The usual excuse is something-something content creators something watch on youtube :)

The real answer is laziness and ineptitude.

yeah rito aren't gonna bother doing that for skins now. i argue that they should make all champions available in the practice tool by default. this would be more friendly to new players cause they can actually try out the champions before purchasing them. much more crucial than sampling a skin before buying it imo, i can see and hear what a skin looks like and that's all that really matters about it, i can't feel what a champion is like to pilot without piloting it. and no just no free rotation is fuck all with the amount of champions the game has now, by the time we reach 150 this should honestly be a thing.

Make a PBE account and buy the skin you wanna play
