League of Legends


features a huge roster of characters, each with a wide variety of purchasable skins. Some are edgier than others, with a great selection of cute and colorful variants of players’ favorite champions.

Skin lines such as the popular and adorable Cafe Cuties and the vibrant magical Star Guardian skins are also available. While this list only covers a portion of the amazing skins that

League of Legends

offers, the skins below are some of the best ones available aesthetically.

Updated October 22, 2023 by Joe Grantham:

League of Legends has a roster of over 160 champions, and every champion has a variety of skins that players can purchase or

hope

to unlock for free via the Hextech Crafting loot system. Naturally, the older and more popular champions have many more skins than the more recent additions to the roster, but as technology and art are constantly evolving,

the best League of Legends skins

are often some of the most recent.

There are many factors that make for great skins in League, from the splash art to the in-game model, as well as new voiceovers or other unique effects. Skins that are able to combine all of these factors in a cohesive way make for truly unique experiences in the game.

Truth Dragon Yasuo

Yasuo is a champion with many great skins, although unfortunately none of them will help players reach his infamous ten-

death

power spike any faster. Nevertheless, arguably the most beautiful Yasuo skin is his Truth Dragon skin which is a Legendary. It also happens to be a twin of his almost as stunning Dream Dragon skin.

The contrast between black and gold and the oriental art style of the splash art and Yasuo’s in-game model add elegance to this skin, and players should enjoy the dragon effects on his abilities as they glide through the minions in mid-lane.

19


Dark Cosmic Jhin

Jhin’s Legendary Dark Cosmic skin transforms him into an interstellar entity and players will feel power coursing through their veins when they open up his ultimate ability, Curtain Call, to unleash devastation on their opponents.

With an ethereal new voiceover, eerily beautiful effects, and an in-game model that transcends Jhin into an almost omnipotent being, it is easy to see why this is one of the best

LoL

skins ever made. Players that like this skin will also love Dark Star and Cosmic skins, of which there are many.

18


Broken Covenant Cho’Gath

While the Broken Covenant Cho’Gath skin is sadly slightly brought down by Cho’Gath’s outdated in-game model and animations, the splash art is easily one of the best in

League

. This eerie concept is reminiscent of the walking mausoleums from

Elden Ring

, as Cho’Gath has some sort of temple on his back.

Naturally, as Cho’Gath grows in size over the game, the skin truly comes into its own. The exciting thing about this skin is that seeing as Cho’Gath is an older

League

champion who surely deserves an update, this skin could reach new heights.

17


Cafe Cuties Gwen

Players were extremely excited when the Cafe Cuties set was announced. Fans of

League of Legends

could finally play as their favorite champions whilst wearing maid dresses, what’s not to love? Gwen’s original skin is already fantastic, but the Cafe Cuties variant gives her blonde twin tails with pink spiral highlights.

She wears a charming maid headdress to go with her pastel blue frilly maid dress, which is decorated with golden and purple detailing. It’s a great alternative to her base skin, and it even adds some extra details to her unique scissor weapon.

16


Pajama Guardian Soraka

The Pajama Guardian skin set is an adorable spin on the already excellent Star Guardian set and sees popular champions, such as the premier healing support Soraka, dressed up in cute and magical onesies.

With Soraka’s long wavy turquoise hair flowing down, and her pointy ears that have been turned into a fluffier and cuter alternative, the cozy vibes are heavily amplified. The hood of the onesie features a cute cat-like design, while Soraka’s iconic horn pokes through her bangs.

15


Prestige Empyrean K’Sante

When it comes to glamorous skins in

League of Legends

, it’s hard to argue against ranking Prestige Empyrean K’Sante first. This skin is truly one of a kind as it was co-designed by the rapper Lil Nas X, who collaborated with Riot on the Worlds 2022 anthem.

Unlike many other Prestige skins, it is completely different from his normal Empyrean skin and makes him one of the best-dressed male champions in the game. The visual effects which are mostly purple and gold are worthy of any king, and are accordingly topped off with equally beautiful sound effects.

14


Dawnbringer Soraka

Dawnbringer Soraka, which has a Nightbringer twin skin, is one of the most breathtaking in the game, transforming Soraka from a fairly ugly champion into an angelic vision. Although the splash art is a little darker, the in-game model is lighter with plenty of white, and thus she almost appears as a two-legged unicorn.

As one of the most iconic healers in any game, Soraka’s global healing ult has never looked so good with the skin’s incredible visual effects.

13


Spirit Blossom Kindred

The Spirit Blossom skin line is easily one of the most beautiful in the game, with many great installments over the years. Out of these, Spirit Blossom Kindred is among the best, and although Kindred players had to wait over four years to receive a new skin, the wait was well worth it.

Both Lamb and Wolf look incredible both in the game and in the splash art. The visual effects are lush and feel alive, with soothing oriental sound effects topping off the skin. As Kindred already has graceful animations, it doesn’t matter that this skin is only an Epic and thus receives no new ones.

12


God-King Garen

God-King Garen is a legendary tier skin that certainly lives up to its name. It was released in 2018 alongside another great skin, God-King Darius as part of a versus event between the two Top Lane rivals.

The skin has a majestic white theme with a phantom lion forming a key aspect of the skin and Garen’s animations. It is these unique animations and effects, as well as the new voiceover, that make this skin so beautiful even half a decade after its release.

11


Elementalist Lux

Elementalist Lux is one of the few Ultimate skins in the game and is unique in how it works. When players purchase this skin, they are not just getting one fantastic skin, but ten.

At the start of the game Lux will start out in Light form, but through the course of the game, players can undergo two transformations, the first of which is a choice between Air, Nature, Water, and Fire. Based on the first choice players can then become Magma, Storm, Mystic, Ice, or Dark.

10


Prestige True Damage Senna

Prestige True Damage Senna is a genuinely unique skin in

League of Legends

as it is one of just two skins that were designed in collaboration with the world-famous fashion brand

Louis

Vuitton.

Unsurprisingly, the skin is jaw-dropping and is arguably the most glamorous skin to grace Summoner’s Rift. Every aspect of Senna’s outfit is stunning, and the effects and sounds particularly stand out. The other Louis Vuitton skin in

League

is the equally impressive Prestige True Damage Qiyana skin.

9


Storm Dragon Aurelion Sol

Aurelion Sol was always a visually stunning champion, and now after his hugely successful rework, he has the gameplay to match his aesthetics. Similarly, Storm Dragon Aurelion Sol was always one of the best skins in

League

since its release, and now it too is even better.

The highlight of this lightning-themed skin has to be The Skies Descend which is the big version of Aurelion Sol’s ult whereupon a massive burst of electrical energy surges to the ground. Hilariously, there is even a very small chance that Storm Dragon Lee Sin will instead be sent hurtling at breakneck speeds.

8


All Out K/DA Seraphine

K/DA is a virtual K-Pop group created by Riot, which on top of releasing great songs, also helps promote the game. This Seraphine skin pack features three iconic skins, with the other two skins available after completing the missions that come with the pack.

The first skin is how she looked when she was first introduced to fans; an aspiring musician making songs in her bedroom. After completing three missions, players will be rewarded with the next skin which depicts Seraphine after she was found by Evelynn during her journey as an artist. Two missions later, the well-known ​​​​K/DA skin is unlocked, which is the outfit that she wears in the K/DA promotional material and the

music

video for more.

7


Corporate Mundo

When Dr. Mundo received his rework and all his skins were improved, no skin benefited more than Corporate Mundo. Swapping out a hospital for the stock market, the first thing players will notice upon leaving the base with this skin for the first time is the tiny little red car Mundo rides.

This gag sets the tone for the rest of the skin which is full of memes and caricatures of business stereotypes. Mundo then spends the rest of the game strutting around on the phone, throwing briefcases of money at people, and ripping his jacket off when the market gets tense with his ult.

6


Star Guardian Jinx

The Star Guardian skin line is a magical-themed collection that features designs that are seemingly inspired by the likes of the ever-popular


Sailor Moon


franchise. As is fitting for Jinx, this skin has a feisty element to it, with her bright red fiery hair tied up in long pigtails.

The

Sailor Moon

-esque top is combined with a pair of shorts and stockings, creating a perfect blend of Jinx’s personality with the vibrancy of a magical universe. She also sports hairpieces that resemble cat ears, in front of sections of spiked-up hair, making it look as if she’s got a pair of adorable fluffy ears.

5


Spirit Blossom Ahri

Ahri is already one of the prettiest champions in

League of Legends

, a popular mid-lane choice for players. With her being a Nine-Tailed fox, it makes sense that she has a Japan-inspired skin. Spirit Blossom Ahri is one of the best

League of Legends

skins purely because of its aesthetics and color palette.

Ahri’s hair is a beautiful shade of pink, with her iconic cat eats adorned with ribbons and bells. She sports an outfit that is heavily inspired by a traditional Japanese Yukata, decorated with shades of blue and pink.

4


Spirit Guard Udyr

As an Ultimate skin, Spirit Guard Udyr has always been one of the best skins in

League of Legends

, but with Udyr’s rework, the skin has ascended to new levels. There was a lot of pressure on Riot to succeed with this much-loved skin, but with enough time and effort they more than delivered.

Channeling the spirits of Bear, Tiger, Turtle, and Phoenix the skin can also be seen as an homage to the original Udyr. It also features incredible effects when transforming that blow away the old skin.

3


Inkshadow Master Yi

The Inkshadow skins, which were released alongside MSI 2023, are some of the best in recent memory, but the legendary tier Inkshadow Master Yi skin stands out above the rest as a masterpiece of design.

The beautiful blend of black and orange flows across the screen with each of Master Yi’s attacks and movements, making it appear as though the ink is being used as opposed to pixels. This is even more true when Yi ults, becoming a blur of ink.

2


Battle Academia Ezreal

The Battle Academia skinline was

League’s

first attempt at anime-themed skins. Though the entire lineup hit the mark, none hit harder than Battle Academia Ezreal.

Sporting iconic spiky anime hair that glows white upon using power, Ezreal has arguably never looked so good, but it is the skin’s legendary features that make it stand out. With unique voice lines and VFX that shake as they emit raw power, this skin makes Ezreal players feel like true anime protagonists.

Battle Bunny Miss Fortune

Miss Fortune has always been one of

League’s

most popular ADCs and, as such, boasts an impressive range of unique skins. One of the newest and arguably her best is her Battle Bunny skin.

By itself, the skin’s unique bunny hop walk animation is enough to cement it as one of the best skins in

League of Legends

, making moving around the map just as fun as fighting. On top of this, Miss Fortune’s cute bunny ears and luscious pastel colors are perfectly combined with a modern battle theme.
