What impact will the decline in the gold content of Honor Crystals have on skin redemption volume?

Looking back at the most significant benefits of 2025, the limited-time vouchers and lucky draw tickets given away in the 10th anniversary version were undoubtedly the most popular. All players set their sights on the Glory Collection, as it used to be the highest level of skin in the game, although it was later replaced by the Rare Peerless. However, adding one to your inventory was a rare opportunity, with a guaranteed value of 360 draws. No wonder everyone was willing to give up the Hou Yi Legendary skin or other directly sold items. The developers may have intentionally lowered its status, but its ranking on the best-selling list shows that its value remains unchanged. The generous giveaway allowed eight skins to rise to the top, squeezing out other items.

The Lucky Draw is all about probability and luck. Logically, you just need to patiently wait for the tripled odds during the Spring Festival, accumulating over a hundred Lucky Draw Tickets. Multiplying by three is equivalent to over three hundred draws. Including minion and hero skins, there are a total of eighteen skins. Add Wu Zetian, and you have nineteen rewards. Assuming you actually win a Glory Crystal one day, you'll definitely start to struggle, wondering which one to redeem, or even hesitating whether to redeem it at all. After all, character updates are infrequent, and leaving it unused seems like a waste. But there haven't been any leaks or announcements online. To clear up any doubts, the remaining method is to refer to the redemption volume of the Collector's Edition. In other words, which design is most willing to be redeemed? We just need to look at the rankings.

Eighth to tenth place

Reaching the top ten is a very good result. The tenth place is Guan Yu's Crimson Shadow Swift Blade. I remember when it was first released, it was an eye-opener. We are used to Guan Yu fighting on horseback. Replacing him with a modern motorcycle is definitely a peak attempt. It is good to be creative and take the first step. However, the planners must have been worried about its sales. As it turns out, it is a good product. Guan Yu players are concentrated in high-level games. The operation is relatively difficult and the hero is not commonly used. You will hardly see it in ranked matches.

Ninth place goes to Li Bai's "Sword's Shadow," a top-tier skin. This jungler has many premium skins, and its inclusion in the top ten proves its popularity. People love its little easter eggs, and the special effects are tied to equipment. If you're a Li Bai player and have a crystal, this skin is a worthwhile investment, comparable to the limited-edition "Peerless" skin, and boasts top-tier feel.

The eighth place goes to Xiahou Dun's Infinite Hurricane skin. Many people consider it a high-end skin, comparable to the Frost Blade with its martial arts ink painting style. Unfortunately, it's only available for a limited time. For epic skins, people choose Riding the Waves, which has a beach theme and a mechanical style. They would all switch to this collector's edition skin.
