If you are willing to be patient you may be able to get what you like at a sensible expense. Very nice review but i want to ask: Arcade Riven will be on sale next month and i am wondering if its worth or i should save my rp for another skin oike crimson elite or battle bunny or just keep rolling with the Project Riven custom skin as it has new particles on all abilities though no sound changes and its pretty glitchy.
From what we saw of Project: Riven it seems like a rather nice skin that fits the sci-fi style it tries to capture. Still, Arcade Riven is a nice skin provided you like it for what it can offer. If you want something similar to Project then none of Riven other skins will suffice. That aside, Riven does have many nice skins; even re-models like Crimson Elite or Redeemed. If you want a skin then it depends on which concept you like and how much you expect from the execution and are willing to pay.
If you like the idea of an armoured Riven with a dedicated liking for blue it would be. The skin is actually quite nice though its intent is obvious. Regardless, it manages to be more than a mere celebration of a season.
If its old price of RP stays it would be a nice skin to get; provided you like it. There will be changes, polish mostly, for the VFX which means that particles will look a bit different. It would be a nice memento of how things were back in Season 2.
In theory, the changes will make it all better but we know well enough by now that visual upgrades can be hit and miss. I would like to ask you Zero, if skins like the limited ones like Championship Riven and legacy ones like Dragonslayer Riven can be put at a discount on the days that are available. Same question goes for the Dragonblade skin during the Lunar Event.
The release discounts were removed when the early sales were introduced. This means that skins will be discounted to the next cheaper price tier six months after release and nothing before that; sans a bundle maybe. The consequence is that no skin, legeacy or limited, will ever see a discount on release even if its price is RP; as it used to happen.
With some twists and turns, the price of skins keeps going up. To complete the picture: regular sales can happen after a skin has gone on an early sale. There is no specific mention of how long it takes; if we recall correctly. A guess of about a year, months more or less, seems sensible enough. Alright, thanks a lot for the information!! The reason i asked was because I really wanted to purchase that Dragonblade skin on Riven and some other legacy or limited skins like Championship Shyvana, Headless Hecarim and Winter Wonder Lulu whenever they become available.
Thank you Zero! Not at all. The regular sales are the best option when buying skins. There are a few exceptions about legacy skins but not just released skins. Retired skins, which are made legacy and removed from the store, are available in the yearly Legacy Vault Sale; usually by the end of the year. Sometimes legacy skins from events, like Ravenborn LeBlanc, can appear in bundles.
Also, past, legacy event skins are bundled for the event with a small discount by year; it can help a bit with the price. Regardless, we agree that usually the skins that are more accessible are the regular ones. You are right, thanks a lot Zero for all the information provided!!! You were much of a help!! You are doing an excellent job, keep going! The changes to Championship Riven are minimal and also retroactively added to the old skin.
In fact, we thought that it would be automatically added to owners. Truth be told, the changes are minimal with regards to the old skin as well as between the vintage and version. The most relevant change is the polished yet less colourful version of the particles with regards to the old one. Between the vintage and version differences are even smaller as there only seems to be a subtle glow on her complete sword during Blade of Exile.
It depends on what you are looking for in a skin. Battle Bunny is more of a joke or costume with some timidly coloured particles. Championship strives to be a blue, armoured version if Riven with a touch of royalty that perhaps references too much the seasonal aspect. Arcade is a skin with an unassuming model backed by quite attractive particles and nice sounds.
Each skin is unique and has nice features as well as drawbacks. With regards to Championship, now is the time to get the skin. Are you ever going to add the difference between Championship Riven and Championship Riven ? The new one doesnt have the obvious season 2 references.
They are specified all the same in the penultimate paragraph. The review is up to date, though. If you think we should add something more specific about the skin please do tell us. Depends on what you expect from the skin. Regardless, there are things to like in the specific implementation of the theme. Championship Riven is a bit more serious as a blue-based, armoured warrior. The advantage is that it has recently been polished and refined; though the result can be subjective: colours are less vibrant than before.
They are similar in technical aspects and successful at their aim. Championship Riven may be a more traditional yet also less controversial option.
Battle Bunny Riven is really sexualised but the connotations of the skin are evident. That aside, the blue colour palette of Championship can be a bit monotonous but is also a distinct feature of the skin. Battle Bunny seems less striking with its orange particles and familiar costume. It largely depends on which concept you like as none have an implementation with serious problems.
In the end, neither is a bad choice but there are differences that should help in the subjective choice. Are you going to do a separate review for Championship Riven as opposed to the old one? In spite of the old in-game screenshot the review is already updated for Championship Riven. Overall, the skin is still as good as it was; give or take a few questionable changes. Im pretty sure Championship Riven is still limited, they just made her available to buy one final time hence the but she wont be available again.
From what we understand from the release announcement Championship Riven retains a limited vintage version with some small extras. However, the new Championship Riven is supposed to be legacy and joins the rest of the Championship skins for the Worlds events. What do you mean exactly? Perhaps for Worlds it will be availalbe. The question is when.
Looks quite nice. None unless you really like her. That said, which ones should you consider? If you are content with just re-models both Crimson Elite and Redeemed are nice dark and light takes on her past and potential future. For something more elaborate Championship Riven is unusually nice for an, arguably, promotional skin.
Battle Bunny can be nice if you can take it without seriousness. Neither is bad but at their prices, and legacy status in the latter, they could have some additions that make them stand out from the norm. Regardless, some are better than others. Personal preference play a good part in it all as there are many different concepts. Executions vary but tend to be good with many being memorable; within the limitations of their price tiers. If in doubt, consider the concept and then check if the implementation has all the features that you look for in a skin.
As always, we recommend to get the skins on sale, when possible, to save on RP. Hi Zero,a question for you. The main point is to be sure to get what you like the most.
You could always wait untilt the early sale to save on RP. In the meantime you can check some videos of the skin in action to check how it fares in actual gameplay.
You have to enjoy what you buy and play. Look for another skin, perhaps there are elements in Dawnbringer that you like but not the full arrangement. Other skins may share some characteristics in a different way that may feel more appealing. I got from a box dragon blade riven skin and iam not a riven player but from time to time i play her do u think its worth buying her? It depends on the cost of buying the skin. After all, there are many alternatives you could simply buy on sale. Your Comment.
