In case anyone didn't know, SKT has already stated the champions they want for the SKT skins

Duke: Gnar Bengi: Olaf or Nidalee Blank: Zac Faker: Ahri Bang: Ezreal Wolf: Karma

And here are some of my opinions about these picks.

  1. Faker did not played Ahri in Worlds at all, so she's definitely a very blank pick for an SKT skin. I'm guessing he may switch it to the likes of Viktor, as Orianna already has a TPA skin back in Season 2.

  2. As mentioned about Orianna in the first point, is it actually okay to have a champion like Ezreal to have 2 different types of team skins? Still not quite sure myself if it would be okay or not, I can be wrong anyway.

  3. Zac is a good choice for a skin, but do know we're talking about a champion whom Riot claims to have difficulty in making one for him since he's just a fully green blob. I'm guessing they're probably just give him an SKT clothing with no new animations.

So I'm wondering what's your opinion on the skins being selected by SKT themselves? Is it good picks, or do you think they could've selected better ones?

Just give Faker his Ahri skin already.

Alternate Earth 2018. Faker still has no SKT Ahri skin

"Welcome to Riot Games, CEO Faker." "Why thank you, I haven't really thought about what I was going to do when I became CEO."

_Nine minutes and seventeen point thirty-three seconds later, the entire Worlds skin department is escorted out of the building and replaced by a team of Koreans that have been developing SKT Ahri for 5 years. SKT Ahri is also released with a fully functioning OST that becomes #1 in Korean Pop Charts. Using the latest technology, SKT Ahri is released at a tier higher than Legendary as "Divinity Tier" and is the greatest League of Legends skin moneymaker in history. It is said that by looking at SKT Ahri's dance animation for a minute can cure most forms of tilt and bring the mental state known as "peace of mind". _

Faker has wanted an ahri skin since 2013. Maybe now he will finally get one.

And like I said, she was never picked at all during Worlds, so technically, the skin for her seems pointless.

Doesn't need to have been picked at worlds. Could have shown up a lot in the LCK season for them and made some very memorable games. Either way, it's Faker's choice to be honest.

There is also the possibility of a 7th skin. SKTeemo for coach Kkoma. But nobody from RIOT has commented on that, even though everyone basically wants it.

And it's also Riot's choice for choosing Maokai for he Victorious skin, which everyone at Boards arguing it's bad because they claimed he wasn't seen much in LCS & Worlds. So technically, the logic here baffles me a lot.

Victorious skins are designed long before worlds. Maokai was prominent during the Iceborn/sunfire meta where he was one of the best counters to Ekko in the top lane.

iirc Looper didn't pick singed and Pawn didn't pick talon at worlds but SSG still got them for their skins

Looper did in fact play Singed in the 2014 World Championship, he played him twice. PawN also played Talon twice in worlds that year.

Maybe Zac will get a good skin other than pool party.
