Riot expressed their plans about revisiting old skinlines during the Preseason update show. After which a poll took place in which players could decide if the want new Arclight, Infernal or Goth skin. But the developers had some other plans in mind and with the new skins they really caught lightning in a bottle (literally in the case of Kassadin). Shockblade Qiyana, Shen and Kassadin look seriously cool, and should be hitting live servers in a few weeks.
A new Prestige skin is also slated for addition to the game. This time one of the newest additions to the Phoenix-skinline, Xayah gets a glowup. But one of the biggest surprises of the reveal was the confirmation of the long-awaited Firelight Ekko release! Riot showed the skin off a while back; but got some negative feedback from the community and decided to work a bit more on the Boy-Genius of Zaun. Touching up his model and giving a bit more effects for his abilities. After all, Firelight Ekko is a full-priced skin at 1350 RP, such as the new Shockblade outfits. They hit their mark perfectly though, because the Leader of the Firelights looks better than anticipated!
All of the skins will be arriving on the PBE shortly!
