      Everytime I see a complain about a high price skin is a running gag who start to be not fun anymore. The main question I have is : why it bother you? If you don't want it don't buy it. Skins are just skin, if you want to keep your mind into the thing, people who buy this are stupid pigeon or whale, OK keep it. Personally I will buy the skin of Jinx 250 euros, why ? Because I love it, I can do it, and I know I will probably play the game until his last breath. If riot games can made good things after LoL I will not be disgusted to help them, to make for exemple the nice series arcane, the games they create recently, and I still don't know about the MMO, maybe it will be shit, or maybe I will be nicely surprise and enjoy it.
      Hope you guys just past away this hate for nothing. You're not a white knight that people needs to made a random justice...

      ​@Roi_Darkin its a problem for skin collectors and people who love their mains. You know it's overpriced, yet you just accept it??? The jinx skin looks like a vgu, and has 3 ugly forms that don't change anything special. You should know the value of certain things and not just blindly buy something overpriced. Riots marketing team and managing team practices are predatory, and just lead you to a slow gambling addiction.

      @Roi_Darkin 5 дней назад

      @@zero490real that's a point of taste, I'm a collector and I spend already more than 3k euros in 12 years of game in league of Legend, if the money was a problem for me, I swear you, I would not buy anything and hoping with the chest. I'm almost close to have everything... Except the PAX skins original and also every championship because it's not interesting... And since they made the chest system free I buy nothing, except when I cannot obtain.
      And no I will not purchase any exalted only what I wish.

      And the two of the ones so far are worse then the Samira/MF skins that were bumped down Ultimate prices because they weren't good enough. It has less stuff then ANY Ultimates in the game, and we are probably not going to get any more Ultimate skins from now on because they can just make these scam skins

    I'm sure sales are higher when they're a price everyone can afford.

    As someone who does actually main Sett I am not even sure I like this Skin.
    One of the best things about Sett imo is that his auto attack animation feels insanely good. A big reason for why I prefer the Prestige Skin and the Pool Party skin over the legendary is because the palm strike of the legendary feels a lot worse imo. And I have a feeling that this auto attack also feels a lot worse.
    This part is gonna be a bit of a nitpick for the people really invested in Sett but making his Exalted Skin during the Noxus season and not giving us a single version without sleeves is pretty wild and I feel like a bit disrespectful to care so little about the character. I mean Sett hates Noxians and literally says "Nothing I hate more than people with sleeves" I really don't think it's too much expectation to cater a little bit to the character I love when you expect me to pay up 250$.

    @serkanylmaz6689 6 дней назад

    It used to be that you had to grind for something you wanted. I remember when Prestige Firecracker Vayne was released I played for days and nights to get enough tokens since there wasn't a battle pass system back then. You would get 6 tokens for a win and 3 tokens for a loss in summoners rift, aram and rgms were +4 and +2. You needed 1000 tokens to unlock the prestige skin so in order to unlock the skin you'd needed to play +200 summoners rift games with %50 win rate during the event period since a summoners rift game gives +4.5 tokens on average. Aram and RGMs averaged an even worse +3.5 which meant you had to play +300 arams and let's say the event lasted a month. That meant you had to play +10 games consistently everyday without spending any tokens to unlock the prestige skin. Nowadays you just buy the pass, complete a few missions and you are at level 40. You play a bit more and you are reach pass level 50 so you have enough for the prestige skin. The prestige skins don't even have special animations their main purpose is a unique splash art that is gold heavy to show off. Most prestige skins just straight up suck in game.

Then you wait 2 years to watch season 2. It comes out, you're glad, the series ends. As a Jinx fan, you are incredibly glad that your character survived. Then R games says that there will be skins in honor of the series. And then, like a thunderstorm out of a clear sky, a HUGE SLAPP arrives in your face. You are told that you are not a "real fan". Because ONLY for real fans they will release a Jinx skin for $250. You are in shock and then you get another HUGE SLAP, because a beautiful Jinx skin is being released for the mobile League in the BATTLE pass with the canonical appearance in the hood....
