This is almost as bad as not having enough RP for something

Do you know if Riot gives out essence for fanart?

I've literally never gotten a skin for champion I own from boxes. lol

When they announced Mecha Zero Sion, I totally freaked out. I immediately bought the RP I needed and bought the skin as soon as it came out.

3 weeks later, I find out that I have enough key fragments to open a Hextech crate and I open one of the crates I have.

I find the Skin shard of Mecha Zero Sion flipping me off on my screen. Literally the definition of "feels bad man".

What was the skin?

Lol I have DJ Sona skin shard, 8 essence short

or that feel when you are close to a skin but then you unlock something you want more and you are now stuck with 2 skins. and you need to grind another 3 key shards somehow.

Well sometimes you get a skin permanent but you don't own the champion, that's pretty bad too.

so whats difference between blue and orange essence. and how do i get them?

How about: Skin Permanent Purchase champion
