Hey, so, today was supposed to be just another patch day in League of Legends, right? Patch 25.10, big whoop, who cares, right? But nah, what REALLY caught my eye was the juicy stuff about 25.11. Now, before you roll your eyes and scroll away, hear me out. So, guess what? Not a single new skin is hitting the test server this time. I know, wild stuff! Apparently, Riot’s been all hands on deck revamping some old skins instead.
So, here’s the scoop: the start of the year? Yeah, it was kinda rocky for League. Premium skins flopped – hard. The Masque of the Black Rose series? The poster child for mediocre launches. Even though these skins got tossed into the battle pass, they tanked. Poor Elise, Ezreal, Renata Glasc, Samira, Vladimir, and don’t forget Prestige Katarina – really snazzy splash arts that promised big and delivered… not so big.
Players were like, “Hey, we got these boring, overpriced skins that don’t match the hype!” I mean, they looked awesome on paper. A secret society plot twist in the LoL universe? Count me in! But then, yeah, reality hit.
Fast forward to 25.11, and woohoo, they’re giving those skins a facelift. I mean, check it out on the PBE if you’re curious. Elise, Renata, Samira, and Vlad? They’re getting the glow-up they deserve. SkinSpotlights made a rad video on it – love seeing some before and after action.
But here’s the kicker: turning these skins from flops to bops didn’t come without cost. Riot’s like, “Pause on new skins, peeps, we gotta fix this mess first,” which means absolutely no fresh skins in 25.11. I know, I can hardly believe it myself.
Now, Riot kinda left us hanging with their “upcoming window” comment. Is it just 25.11 that’s getting this no-skin treatment, or should we brace for a repeat? Honestly, not having skins drop is like Christmas without snow – just plain weird.
Mark your calendars: LoL patch 25.11 is dropping Wednesday, May 28 – allegedly. While you’re waiting, go snoop around the LoL Mythic Shop or skim over our LoL tier list if you’re curious who’s trashing the meta right now.
