This question was spawned in another topic, but for you, which champions have the best base skins?

While this is subjective, some qualifications could be:

  1. The base skin is very well done compared to other champs.
  2. The base skin sets a very high bar for the purchasable ones.
  3. You'd love to play in the base skin even if you bought other skins for that champ.
  4. Champs who have bad (to you) skins for purchase are disqualified, list them if you feel like it.

For me champs who come to mind are Ahri, Leona, Nami, and Vi.

Khazix Everything about his classic concept feels so right. Mecha Kha is quite awesome, and Guardian of the Sands has a fantastic aesthetic, but leaping around as an otherworldly terror is only satisfactory when looking like an otherworldly terror.

Ahri Karma Lulu Lux Nami Vi Jinx Zed Nautilus these are champs i like their classic skin at least as much as any of their other skins. ahri and lulu in particular. for karma, nautilus, and zed, i like their classic skins so much i don't even really want a skin for them.

Aatrox Because I love his grim dark nature. And I really hope that his next skin will be dark too.

For now I'd say Katarina Kassadin and Zed until they finally get an awesome skin that's actually worth buying.

Sion; his reworked skins just look really off for some reason.

Also Thresh and Jinx (Firecracker looks promising though).

Leona Leona all the way. Though her skins are all a bit sucky. Champions with bad skins: Karma Vi Lulu

Viktor. I have all of his skins, and his base is still in the rotation.

Probably Gnar tbh. I've always thought Dino Gnar was awesome, but I've not even bothered buying it yet cause I like the base so much. Khazix also comes to mind, since I most of the time use it over Mecha anyawys.

Ahri. Her base is still awesome.

I would say, I like Graves as a base, both splash art and skin. One of the few champs I would want to get skins for (because Mafia Graves looks badass)

Jinx is better than Mafia Jinx, Ahri only loses to Firefox and Challenge, Oriana is better than most of her skins (gothic would be so much better without that goofy collar), throw out Caitlyn's hat and she's great*, poor, poor Elise, *Kalista, Ashe and Janna no matter how much they try, Tristana only loses to Riot Girl.
