Come on rito, surprise party is much cooler. Not too mention you could have made it really awesome if you changed his voice overs.

Risen Fiddlesticks costs the same amount as Surprise Party Amumu - they're both 1350 RP skins.

That said, 1350 RP skins are on sale when they're initially released for 975 RP, which may be where you saw a lower price on Surprise Party Amumu.

He was comparing it to Surprise Party Fiddlesticks, probably. IIRC, the explanation is that SPF is like Primetime Draven: a perpetually discounted skin. I would say that SPF is generally better than Risen Fiddlesticks, but they're so different in theme and direction that it's not really possible to say that one is strictly superior to the other.

I will say that it would be super great if Risen Fiddlesticks could have same alteration to its walking animation as Dark Candy Fiddlesticks has during its ult. That was easily the best part of DKF, and really made Fiddles's ult feel like an even bigger moment of strength.

This guy is right. Surprise party fiddle is a legendary tier skin that would cost 1850, but as a thank you to players, riot has made it permanently buyable for 950. That's why surprise party may seem cooler for a lower price.

Ah, okay! That skin is actually an 1820 RP skin permanently discounted to 975 RP as a celebration of LoL's 2 year anniversary/thank you to players!

Surprise party fiddle sticks was made with the community and riot. So it's cheaper, evenif it had to cost 1350. I guess they got their money back on "not a recolor" pink taric. (wink wink)

Surprise Party Fiddlesticks is a 1350 skin, it's just permanently 'on sale' as a gift to the community for LoL turning 2/being a fan made idea, and just cause Rito's cool like that.

Oh. Did not know that it was permanently on sale lol. Still man, they could have made it a sweet ass skin (it's already pretty awesome).

..they did the same thing again a year or 2 so later with primetime draven..

Yeah except this time it wasnt a nod to a community but rather a last ditch effort to sell and otherwise unliked skin for its price.
