What if, one of the free champions of the week and only one was given a skin unlocked for the week he/she is free. this would allopw people to enjoy a skin aswell as motivate them if they want to buy it.

I always wanted an IP skin of the week; for the week, you could purchase the choice skin for an increased IP price. A skin worth 975 RP could cost 4800 IP. Something like this would be really cool.

While that would be nice 4800 IP seems too generous. That what maybe a week or less of matches?

True, but you get the idea. Maybe 8100?

An appropriate amount for a skin would most likely be 45000 for a 750 skin. This is due to Riot needs to make money so if they were to make skins obtainable through IP they would need to make us Grind really really hard for them.

No thanks. Skins aren't anything but a cosmetic treat. I'm all for Champion IP sales, but skins should remain purchasable only through RP. Riot is trying to run a business here, after all, and I'm perfectly fine buying skins if I want them that badly.

They REALLY need to put an IP price tag on Chroma though But they could just make it purchasable for people that has that champion at level 5?

I don't think Riot cares to make Chromas something you can buy with Ip. To be honest I hate the idea of chromas to begin with, but apparently people are willing to spend money on them anyways. Seeing as that's the case, I doubt Riot will make them purchasable through other means, as it'll devalue them for people who already got them through RP.

But what happens if you already own that skin, and when you use it people think you're just getting it for free? item 3070

First world problems, man.

Well if you own the skin, then it would be the same as owning a champion when it is free.... So wont be much of an effect.

You know what? That's actually a fantastic idea!! This would make it so that people could test out a skin they planned on buying for that champion after they bought him/her in-game, and would more than likely increase sales, since youtube videos still don't do that much.

Would definitely increase the amount of $kin$ being purchased.

I think it should be like 7800 IP to rent then skin of the week for a week and also i think they should never allow you to buy skins with IP. Also if it is like a legendary skin or something over 1350 RP they should be able to put it over 15000 IP. Or something like this

Paying 7800 IP only for renting a skin for a week is a liiiittle to expensive though..
