I was wondering,why do you like skins realy? I personaly like skins because it gives me a different aproach of the same caracter,it tells a whole another story for me,it makes another champion and it gives me the feeling of actualy having something that not everyone has.I can feel i own that champ.even tho i know its not true thats how i feel,how do you guys feel?

I like League, I like art, I purchase League art.

Same as you really. I have battle boss Brand and Zombie Brand and honestly wouldn't play brand if I didn't have those skins.

The fire-dude trope is so overdone but twisting it into the zombie /arcade theme makes him feel like a totally new champ.

Makes me feel better than filthy casuals who only play my favorite champs when they are OP.

Few things for me:

  1. alternate telling of a character - some skins in a way show a what if/alternate scenario to a champion, say Black Ice Anivia or Spirit Guard Udyr. Other times it can tell what a champ was in the world of League or what they are now, say Human Ryze, Tyrant Swain, Captain Gangplank, and Captain Fortune.

  2. they can have visually appealing themes to them/they look cool - pretty simple to me. I see Gentleman Cho'Gath, I see it might be a fun skin. I see Battlecast Cho'Gath, I think it has a badass theme to it along with the other champs in the series. Candy Ivern - playful colorful theme, Dragonslayer - kick-ass theme, etc.

  3. It breaks up having the same base skin all the time - I'm not usually a person who likes playing a champ with the same look every single time, especially when they're one of the other champs/models. Skins just help the champ look better with FX, looks, and possibly new lines/animations depending on the quality lvl of it (legendary/ult/epic).

They show my champions in other ways some of which I like better.

Arclight Vel'Koz - Literal God

Program Lissandra - Hive mind Queen of a future technological race

Justicar Syndra - A take on what Syndra could have been if she hadn't turned against Ionia

Blood Moon/ Lunar Goddess Diana - Demon possessed lunar warrior/ Moon Goddess Selene type character

Cause they make me want to play a champion more, which makes me better at the game.
