Domination and rotations: LCK team icons

Riot·Jul 6, 2015·1 votes·30,315 views

Known for teams being ruthless and unforgiving on the international stage, League of Legends Champions Korea (LCK) is an esports league unlike any other in the world. LCK has not only produced multiple League of Legends World Championship winners, including SKT and SSW, but is also home to Faker, the Mid-laner nicknamed “The Unkillable Demon King.”

Whether you think Korea will be able to repeat their 2014 Worlds victory and take home the coveted Summoner’s Cup again or you just love watching the LCK, you can unlock the 2015 LCK Icons Bundle from now until September 1. For 2000 RP, you’ll unlock all 10 LCK team icons from Summer Split. Individual icons can also be purchased for 250 RP each.

Stay updated on the latest LCK news over on Lolesports.com with articles, Power Rankings and weekly recaps on PrimeTime League. Catch all the LCK action live with the weekly English broadcast on Lolesports as they determine which teams will represent Korea at the 2015 World Championship in October.

Why am I being forced to buy the bundle if I only want icons for a few of the teams in the LCK?

AramzaJul 9, 20157 votes

Not like it matters I just bought the damn thing anyways. Gg no re. <3

It kinda does matter, he's never gonna use the icons he doesn't want to buy so why buy them? Shouldn't be forced in a bundle

MagearnaJul 9, 20153 votes

Yeah, shouldn't be forced into a bundle, but he was kinda replying to himself

yea i completely agree! there was ONE icon i was looking forward to and ill admit its not because of the team i just really like that icon its sad i wont be able to get it... im already saving the rp i have for future things i wan so im budgeting what i have to go out of my way to pay for more ip to get one thing but be forced to pay more for what i dont want is unacceptable

Good question. Individual LCK icons have now been added as well.

VoiirJul 9, 201510 votes

what about the other regions?

CyraknossJul 10, 20154 votes

Sweet! so now that we've established bundles without individual purchase option is a bad idea, can we do the same for IWC regions? There some icons in those bundles I'd really like to have without paying 4k RP for 2 icons.

Geron KizanJul 10, 20152 votes

I agree. Also why isn't the LJL included in the IWC regions? Come on, give us Detonation FM fans some love!

Because riot new some people would buy the bundle instead of waiting. all they care about is money.

This is EA

For the love of gods, STOP with the icon bundles. We only want specific teams, which means we only want to pay the price for 1 icon. Judging by the fact that the comments on the IWC icon bundles were also utterly negative I can only assume you're actually tanking sales of team icons in general by not making them individually available. We want icons from every region, and we want them individually so we can pay a small amount for our favorite team from the region. We don't want to pay ridiculous prices for bundles just to get the 1 icon per region we actually want.

why the f*ck cant those icons be bought seperate instead of the full bundle. the skt icon is only worth buying and the rest of those teams blow and suck

TryndsJul 9, 201510 votes

Yea this suck... can you guys just please make it available to get SKT T1 by itself.. we are not going to waste 25$ to get a 2000 RP bundle.

Ron JohnsonJul 9, 201510 votes

No one is going to pay for the entire bundle when they only want 1 icon, which is most likely SKT anyways. Riot please get some sense and let us buy them individually.

GoodSpaceFellowJul 9, 20157 votes

Hey riot, i understand that the #1 for a company is making money, but i dont want to have to go buy a $25 gift card just so i can have the SKT icon. So no, fuck your marketing scheme :-)

Not many people want to rep more than one team so why bundle it. most people are fans of one team not one reign.

GRIMThousandEyesJul 9, 20155 votes

Seriously, this is a bit much. I was excited to see the LCK icons on PBE, but why would you allow some regions to be bought individually and others not?

Like I love LCK teams, but I'm a CJ fan through and through. Having the other icons is cool for people that want all of them and I'm glad I'd be supporting the teams, but I only WANT one icon and this is gonna keep me from getting it

VelikaJul 9, 20154 votes

seriously i just want to buy a single icon but i need to buy the whole bundle for that......

ChinDynastyJul 9, 20153 votes

Only can use 1 icon at a time, wats the point of having 9 more?

SP00NSJul 9, 20153 votes

def not getting my money. I would've bought maybe 2 or 3 of my favorite teams but honestly, 2000RP for icons I will never use? Nope.

Blur XVIJul 9, 20153 votes

Wtf? I was so excited for these as I only wanted an SKT icon.... I don't want to spend 2k RP on icons for teams I don't care about and for icons I will NEVER use...

This is absurd, the whole point of a team icon is to support that team. I mean, how would this work: "Oh, if you'd like to buy a Red Sox hat you also have to buy a Yankees hat. And a Braves hat. And a Dodgers hat. And 6 other MLB team hats. I'm sure you'll probably never wear any of them, because you are a Red Sox fan, but you have to buy them regardless."

I just want to support CJ, and I'm sure a ton of Faker fanbois just want SKT, even if they've never watched an OGN/LCK game in their life. Given that Riot also doesn't mention that a portion of icon sales go to the team as they do (and pointed out) with LCS teams, and the forced Faker nod makes this seem like a complete cash grab. I buy a lot of skins, but I think it is ridiculous to a) bundle icons that are for teams that oppose one another b) continue to spit in the face of their promise of "we will put out more IP items in the store, probably icons" and c) have a bundle price on ICONS that works out to be 200RP a piece (yes, that's a paltry 20% discount on the already overpriced icons)

I hate how you can't represent a team (SKT for example or Cj Entus) because people will assume you either are a fanboy of Madlife and Faker or just a fanboy of overall good Korean teams and know nothing about the teams players.

When will the GPL region be available for purchase/individually? Was really looking forward to getting a icon from that region?
