Faker wins League of Legends World Championship again, and Hall of Legends Ahri skin gets visual update

With Faker winning the 2024 League of Legends World Championship again, his "Hall of Legends Ahri" skin will undergo a visual update to highlight his extraordinary achievements in the professional arena.

This small update will add a fifth championship trophy to Ahri's return animation and display five stars on the loading screen, representing Faker's five world championship titles in 2013, 2015, 2016, 2023 and 2024.

As a legend in the field of e-sports, Lee Sang-hyeok (ID: Faker) is regarded by many as the "GOAT" (Greatest of All Time) in the history of e-sports and a symbol of League of Legends e-sports. He is one of the most successful players in the professional League of Legends. As early as last year, Riot Games established the Hall of Legends to commemorate the most influential League of Legends e-sports players, and Faker was unsurprisingly the first inductee.

To celebrate Faker's induction into the Hall of Legends, Riot launched the "Hall of Legends Ahri" skin, which includes three different versions, each with a different price. Among them, the most expensive "Immortal Legend" Ahri skin costs as much as $500, which has caused widespread controversy in the community. Many players think that this price is too expensive, and one player even joked: "A trophy costs $100."

In addition, some players have raised questions about future updates: If Faker continues to win more world championships, how will Riot make subsequent updates to this skin?

According to the well-known content creator SkinSpotlights, the new skin update will be launched in version S25.1.2, which means that players will soon be able to see the return special effects of Ahri with five crowns in the game.
