No offense Nicky, but I think it's criminal that you didn't bring up the blurb of the skin: Mundo hired Thresh specifically BECAUSE HE THOUGHT THE TERM MONEY LAUNDERING WAS LITERAL. So not only is Thresh a custodian that unironically likes his job, but he's even doing illegalities on the side ! Like "Let's see... Floors, mopped, windows, cleaned, money, laundered, toilets, unclogged... what else was there...".
I heard the "one per skinline rule", then i saw Azorney at law, and thought to myself:"janitor thresh? Did you forget about him? Did i imagine him? Was he just a figment of my imagination?" I was very happy to see you break the previously established rule
I want more Rain Shepherd. There’s SO MUCH UNTAPPED POTENTIAL that we can get from this and Milio is the crown jewel of it all. We can have the Great Frog Tahm Kench, Kog Maw can be a little tadpole, Malzahar summons rain, Rain Shepherd Teemo, Rain sticks K’Sante, there’s so much creativity that this skin line UNLOCKED and I want Riot to nurture that!
Agreed. This skin is in the same design style and tier as Bees and Cats v Dogs. Very animal focused and yordles would fit so well into it. Give me Bullfrog Gnar! Tadpole Teemo. Pond Queen Tristana where she blasts water bubbles at ppl and her e is a frog with a growing chin.
My favorite detail about attorney Azir is that they added the perfect pun in the Spanish translation, I’ll try to explain it, so basically the skin is called Azir Licenciado Aguilar, Licenciado being a common way to refer to a person who completed their bachelors degree (Licenciatura in Spanish) and Aguilar being a common Last name in Latino America, why that last name you would ask? Well, Eagle in Spanish is Águila, so it just works, I absolutely love this pun and can’t stop thinking about it
14:24 man now I wanna see millio being friends with Nunu, Zoe and annie in the monster tamers skin line. Zoe doesn´t have a pet and because aurelion is grumpy AF she tames Gnar
@@Is4-me @imperatacylindrica8993 Obviously A Sol y Zoe's Monster tamed, but I wanted to fit Gnar somehow... Lets say he's Nunu's second yeti or the baby version that nunu has been trained until evolve it into the current Willump
Considering how both day job skins got in, here's a concept in case it ever comes back: CEO Yorick, a rival to CEO Mundo. Turn his ghouls into wagies. Turn his shovel into the same type of graph that shows up when mundo uses his stonks emote. His W into a cubicle. His E into just a bunch of paperwork And the Maiden turns into either his secretary or into the Human resource manager of the company.

The lack of Arcane Survivor Jayce on this list is actually criminal, but I saw it coming from the last list. Its genuinely one of the best legendary skins of all time, let alone last year.
I feel like year after year League skins are getting more and more divergent in terms of quality. We are getting so much boring, overpriced and sometimes flat out lazy skins, while also getting so many bangers.
I also really liked the Primordian Aatrox skin, because in his level up with just the gruesome teeth, it just feels like what Canon Aatrox should’ve looked like, just this apocalyptic monster with absolutely no trace of humanity left in his appearance.
Who would've thought making fitting skins for individual champions, allowing creative ideas to fit the characters' models and personas, would make for excelent skin design.
Really like that Neeko skin, specially the extra story they made just for the splash art with Trundle. Like one of those comics they made back in the day, look up, Neeko in the Freljord comic.
Rain Shepard Milio does what infernal was so bad at. It re-elementizes his core thematic to water instead of fire. But it does it so flawlessly because the idea came first and the opposite element came second.
I really think this year was very good for Support skins! It's nice to see some love for this role instead of mid (I have nothing against mid-laners, you guys just have the most champ that "sells"). Can't wait to see what's next in 2025!
fun fact: in Latam Azir's Skin is Azir Licenciado Aguilar. Its a play on the surname Aguilar and reference to aguila which is Eagle in spanish. Took the naming meme to another level.
We Cho'Gath mains got insanely lucky by having Taylor "Medaforcer" Jansen (based Medabots reference) on the skin team: he loves our boi as much as we do, Broken Covenant and Toy Terror are the proof of it. Let's hope the Void Terror keeps his good streak in 2025.
Fully agree with your thoughts on Rain Shepherd Milio! It’s one of my favorite skins, period! I think it fits his character perfectly and the chromas are lovely! His tadpole fuemigos are just *chefs kiss*!
One skin I like off the top of my head is Project Naafiri. Nothing REALLY spectacular, but it just looks cool and I’m a sucker for the Project skins. Her blades are chainsaws in it which is metal as hell
A common trend of this list is that they make skins fitting for the champs instead of forcing champs to fit into a skinline and I'm all for this change.
Also props to the design team for making a skin for the fire themed champ that utilizes the opposite element in a creative and interesting way. Maybe we could've had something like this for the infernal skin line with maybe phoenixes had it won the vote, who knows.
I am glad fright night Veigar didn’t make it in this list, not only the execution was lackin and the vfx (except the E) were nothing special, but the biggest offender of it is the ult, it has no impact and doesn’t grow much in size. Overall I agree with the list and your praises for high noon Yone mean a lot to me as a Yone fan. Thank you
Glad I am not the only one adoring rain shepherd milio. Love that little skinline and I would love ot see more, like one to three more champions to fit the themes and then leave it to be perfection.
I was so glad when my main got such an amazing skin (Milio). Considering how well it did I assume they will throw a bunch of champs into the next wave and ruin it with copied effects and too many champions that wont fit it. The one champ I want for Rain Shepherd is Tahm Kench. Zoe and Lulu could probably fit pretty well too with the whimsical.
3:21 Do you know what I think? I think he should've been wolf like just like in the game. "Oh but we wanted to show there's something of Vander left", then focus on his eyes expressions!
Too be fair, the fact that he even had an recognizable physical features left after the evolution was hinting that he was different and some parts of Vander where left. Him being able to movie on his own and still have an organic interior basically confirmed it.
Thanks once again for painfully praising High Noon Yone. I know this may sound funny but it's awesome for us Yone fans who loves watching your videos, means even more coming from you honestly.
I want Kindred to get a Reverse Kindred skin like Reverse Annie. A black wolf archer and a bitey white lamb! High Noon is one of the few skin lines I paid real money for in the past (Irelia). And I main Evelynn (1m+ mastery). But I still didn't buy High Noon Evelynn. None of the abilities feel demonic to me like Lucian or Thresh. And not gunslinger-y like Irelia, Yone, or Urgot. The prestige skin was completely off theme in my opinion. Really let down. Riot didn't make money from me this year. They need to match the quality of their competition
I know you hate the child but can I have your opinion on Dark Star Zoe ? I think it's a really great execution on a saturated skin line that twists her character in a cool way
I would love to see Swain get a day-job skin. I picture something middle-management beneath Mundo would be comedy gold, or lean into the bird thing and make him reminiscent of Gustavo Fring. Doesn’t have to be day job really I just would like to see him get a silly skin, his skins are always either about making him hotter or younger or both while maintaining the Cool Imperious type.

i just wish primordian briar had some anima squad clothes, like a jacket or something as both contrast to her colors and to show that shes a primordian whos sided with the humans.
The whole thing about releasing Kindred skins based on how each region sees them also works PERFECTLY for Fiddlesticks and I'm flabbergasted, FLABBERGASTED I say, that they aren't doing both of them that way.

When Azir got the spot, I was devastated. I understood, but it hurt. I made no sound when Janitor Thresh appeared, but my silent scream was overjoyed. I care not for the smexyness, I just want my lil janitor man and his ducky.

At least soul fighter yasuo looks good
