Holiday skins throughout the season as rewards (#2)

LongShlongMcBong··1 votes·885 views

With the removal of physical rewards for challenger tier players, I was thinking, as an addition to the victorious skins it would be cool to see anyone masters+ get holiday skins as the year progresses. It would add more of the rewarded as you go feeling to the ranked armor for those top players. It wouldnt necessarily be something entirely specific, but it would be a nice way to add to holiday spirit as well as celebrate peoples accomplishments (that people wouldnt boost accounts for, as theyre just holiday skins) PS. I posted this in gameplay+ and it was removed after getting one upvote and 0 downvotes, I feel this was a relevant post to that board. Trying it here

Sounds like a good incentive! I'd keep it so that you still get a championship skin as well, but adding 1 random Christmas/Holiday skin would would be a nice Christmas gift from Riot. summoner 32

Thats what I was thinking, keep the victorious skin of course but add in a little something extra. Could also work with easter, pool party for summer, haloween. They were gonna do the season in 3 splits this year so each split you could get a holiday skin

What you talking about? They still give Challengers physical rewards. They got backpacks this year.

Then they haven't removed physical awards this year if people are still getting their Challenger Backpacks. They're simply discontinuing physical rewards starting next year.

I don't necessarily think more skins is going to make hitting Challenger special, especially skins that are released to the public during the holiday events. Why do Challengers even need something special anyway beyond the borders, icons and all that?
