Limited-edition skins over the years: Phoenix Seeking Phoenix is a timeless classic, while Monkey King, the pioneer of the series, is at the bottom.

The Lunar New Year limited-edition skins have always been the best-selling series in the game. Every year, the CG animated trailers rival the movie versions. From the original single skin, the number has gradually increased to three, then to five classes, with no one left out. In 2025, it evolved directly into six members. As a version milestone, it comes once a year, and the official team is making money hand over fist. Of course, the players' New Year's money is also going towards the skins. The skin quality and in-game effects are definitely top-notch, which is one of the reasons why it is so beloved and has the highest demand for re-releases. The design is full of sincerity and the handling is exquisite. Even the inconspicuous actions and voice lines perfectly interpret the New Year's meaning and blessings that the skin wants to convey. With the discount price, the quality surpasses that of ordinary direct sales. Who wouldn't be tempted?

I remember that the limited-edition games started production in 2016, with the Monkey King as the first one. They were released every year after that, not counting the Year of the Horse limited edition. The game has been running for more than ten years, accumulating exactly 40 games. If we rank them and have a reference blueprint, players will know which one to buy and which one to ignore when they return in the future. Now let's see if the limited-edition games you have are high quality or low quality.

T0: Phoenix Seeking Phoenix, Taihua, Blazing Frost of Mountains and Seas, Riding the Dragon and Tempering the Wu Hook

It's said to be T0, meaning it's hard to surpass, a top-tier existence in the series. Their release caused a sensation, an outstanding design, the main model, the protagonist, with a reputation that has reached the ceiling. Let's start with Phoenix Seeking Phoenix, a true love for Li Bai players. This assassin has strict requirements for smoothness, and it doesn't lag even after many years. It has been online for many years, and its style still keeps up with aesthetics. The feel is superior. Once you wear it, you can't go back. The Taihua flowing water element, in an era where static shooting is the norm, summoners fell in love with it. High appearance, beautiful and charming, captivating, elegant and intellectual, yet without losing the domineering power of an archer. Each arrow is like a spring, soft yet powerful, each arrow passing over the head and piercing straight into the heart. The enhanced basic attack feels first-class, a classic among classics.

The "Mountain and Sea Blazing Frost Slash" skin showcases the charm of three forms for players. Li Xin is the only hero in the entire game to possess three identities; after transforming at level four, he becomes both Light Li Xin and Dark Li Xin. These three design concepts converge in one hero, making buying it equivalent to buying three skins – a symphony of ice and fire that captivated all male players, causing them to abandon the World Championship altogether. Riding a dragon and forging a Wu hook, Sun Ce riding a dragon – the imagery is breathtaking.
