Three Kingdoms Skins have taken the League of Legends fan world by storm. These skins are based on the Chinese historical period that is already popular among Asian audiences, and is now spreading its wings globally. The skins had been introduced in 2018, and since then have only gained more fans across the world thanks to its unique design and attention to detail. Here is a closer look at these famous skins.
Imperial Forces - Lux, Xin Zhao, and Garen
The Imperial Forces skins are inspired by the Three Kingdoms generals and officers’ armors. The skins have a lot of bright and shiny elements, which make the juxtaposition of the war period’s soldiers and the bright armor very fascinating. These skins’ weapons have different variations inspired by the weapons used in the Three Kingdoms period.
One of the most notable skins is the Imperial Lux, who has a female general’s armor with a golden lion as a helmet, emblematic of armies of that time. Lux’s scepter and shield have a unique design that is inspired by the Chinese battle swords and other bladed weapons the military personnel used during the Three Kingdoms period.
China’s favorite among the Imperial Forces skins is the Xin Zhao, who is based on Guan Yu, the legendary general of the Shu Han dynasty. The character has a long beard and holds a green dragon crescent blade, which is Guan Yu’s weapon. The skin also has a unique helmet design of a phoenix.[1]
Mystic Skin - Jhin
The Mystic Skin is Jhin, the famous champion with a dark and mysterious appearance made even more mystifying with the Three Kingdoms theme. The Mystic Skin presents Jhin as a colorful assassin figure, wearing a costume heavily influenced by the Three Kingdoms time. The skin has a red armor with black and gold fringes and engraved symbols of the tiger and the dragon. The character also has a headband with a feather that is a staple of many Three Kingdoms generals.
Jhin’s weapon in this skin is shaped like a black dragon with a red tip. The weapon also has a black chain that flows with its movement. Jhin’s ultimate attack, Curtain Call, turns into a flurry of red phoenixes who fly past like a flash of burning feathers. The combination of colors, sounds, and animations makes Mystic Skin a fan favorite.
Battlecast Skin - Kog'Maw
The Battlecast Skin is a combination of the Three Kingdoms and mecha themes that feature one of the strangest champions we have, Kog’Maw. This skin makes Kog'Maw more battle-ready and ready to invade enemy territory. The Battlecast Skin has armor plates that are made of steel and can transform into different shapes to protect and cover Kog'Maw's features. The skin has elastic mechanical tentacles that move like snakes when Kog'Maw runs, making the character even more intimidating.
Kog'Maw 's weapon in this skin is called the Siege Worm. It's a new weapon that is invented as a mech concept weapon. It has the ability to launch its head into the air by using propulsion and turns into a juggernaut warhead that crushes everything on its path.
In conclusion, the Three Kingdoms Skin has brought in a new bed of fresh content that mixes historical facts and LoL. Riot Games has created skins that are unique and a must-have for LoL fans in general. We cannot wait to see the new skins that the Riot team will release.
