Sun Ce's "Journey of Time" skin giveaway event has begun. Why didn't the moderator consider including it? Putting aside the data discussion, just look back at your usual ranked matches and see who around you, your teammates, or even the enemy team, is wearing this skin?
One of the Time Travel series with relatively low sales.
The Legendary Rare skin should be cheaper than the Unparalleled Limited skin. It's not a bad skin, but because it already has other skins: the Year of the Dragon limited skin changes the boat ride to riding a dragon, the Valentine's Day limited skin has a groom riding a horse-drawn carriage, and the Doomsday Mech skin allows you to ride a spaceship. The ultimate skill is centered around the vehicle, showing the designer's painstaking efforts. This part has a gimmick. On the other hand, the Time Travel skin has a unique animation when sailing, leaving a trail with floating colorful light effects, which is visually rich. However, it fails because the impact is not strong enough and the sound effects are weak. In other words, this skin takes away the fun of crashing into people while sailing. It feels light and easy to drive, but there is no feeling when the boat hits the target. Furthermore, the frequency of its return is too high. If you didn't know better, you would think it was a hard sell.
Yao: Li Xiaoyao
Standing out as a rare item, the unassuming Li Xiaoyao skin, already considered a classic, has unexpectedly returned, catching everyone off guard. Everyone assumed it was a collector's item, and this time it's being acquired through the "Peerless Wish" event. This marketing strategy reveals a hidden agenda: the developers intentionally used a popular older skin to boost sales of the less common "Peerless Wish" skin. As a collaboration IP, the overall design is satisfactory, featuring a sword immortal image and, importantly, a smooth feel. It already has inherent appeal, making it highly recommended for both skin collectors and those who consider Yao their main character.
In summary, assuming you're playing a top lane warrior, the most recommended returning skin is Li Xiaoyao's. Yao has high national server power and is a regular in the peak matches. As for mages, it depends on your preferred playstyle. Xiao Qiao is fun to play, and once you buy her, you don't have to worry about her just sitting in your inventory. Shiranui Mai's Flower Battle skin is a once-in-a-century find. All three are great and definitely worth considering. Except for Sun Ce; don't be fooled by his anime-style appearance. He's one of the most popular warriors, and you don't need this rare legendary skin.
