Player “Requests” One of the Rarest Skins in League of Legends in a “Unique” Way
In the League of Legends community, it is not uncommon for players to have “requests” for skins to complete their collections, and Riot is usually quite “generous” with these requests. Especially if the player shows sincerity and has unique ways of asking, Riot might not only give one skin but also additional “gifts”. This was the case for a player who recently “requested” the Silver Kayle skin.
Specifically, the male player stated that when this skin line was released on August 13, 2014, he was only 7 years old and could not own the skin. Therefore, he decided to send an email to “request” Riot. Notably, he also sent Riot a profile that included all his achievements in climbing to the Challenger rank on the North American server. One noteworthy fact is that, despite his young age (if the information he provided is correct), he has achieved Challenger rank in all 5 roles, with his strongest position being Support.
In response to the player’s sincerity, Riot certainly did not disappoint their player. One of the rarest skins in League of Legends was sent to this player. For those who may not know, this skin line is rare because Riot only sold it for 17 days (from August 21 to September 7) and it only appeared at the Gamescom 2014 event (Germany). After that, Riot permanently closed the skin, and no one could own it anymore.
The League of Legends Community is Also Stunned by the Player’s “Achievements”
In fact, achieving Challenger rank in a specific role is not an easy task for many, even for those who have played the game for years. The fact that this player can achieve Challenger in all 5 positions indicates that he possesses very high skills. However, this guy seems to be tied to a career as a streamer and has no intention of going pro. His post showcasing the Silver Kayle skin also received much praise from the League of Legends community.
– Actually, there’s another way; you can buy all the skins and send an email. They will give you the missing skin.
– Challenger in 5 roles on the North American server? Have C9 and Team Liquid not invited this guy yet?
– Your win rate is only at an acceptable level, and you still make it to Challenger?
Riot continuously introduces ways that force players to “sweat it out,” but on another level, if they make enough of an impression, Riot can also appease their players by fulfilling requests that are still within reason.
