With New Year's Day just past and no new skins yet released, which skin isn't lacking in sales?

After the season update, S42 symbolizes a change of dynasty in the Rift, with upgrades to various systems, especially the Battle Pass and Ranked Matches. The calculation method is now transparent, and the season missions have been canceled. Long-time players probably never expected that King of Glory would undergo such a transformation. Heroes have been reshaped and balanced, and the ecosystem is no longer what it was when everyone first started playing. With weekly updates and constant changes, returning after a season means that gameplay can easily become outdated, making it necessary to diligently study strategies.

There are very few outstanding direct sales legends.

In the past, skins were released only once in a long while, then a new series was released every week, then every quarter. Event skins were everywhere, free Glory Crystals were available, Legendary skins became commonplace, and Epic skins were the norm. After ten years, no one could have predicted these changes. FMVP production was delayed again and again, collaborations were habitually set as limited-time events, and the number of products available in the store suddenly became very small. All the skins that people wanted were limited-time releases. When the return of a skin finally came, who would have the perseverance to wait?

As we enter 2026, with New Year's Day just past, what changes will the best-selling charts see? With the last version update of the year, the 10th Anniversary celebration was dominated by the Honor Collection, and the points and vouchers were almost used up, quickly returning to normal. The Valley was in a lull, with almost no new products released for two months, so newcomers dug out high-ranking direct-sale legendary items from the store.

Ninth and tenth place

Ranking tenth is Sun Shangxiang's Doomsday Mech, a classic skin known for its excellent feel. Despite being an older skin, the mech theme remains a favorite. After purchase, you can also unlock Star Coins to change the skin's color scheme to pink and blue. One price gets you two skins – why not? Ninth is Luna's 2023 World Championship skin, Frost Moon Chant. High-quality production, excellent sound effects, and gorgeous special effects make it a top-tier skin. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, even without discounts, summoners will still be happy to buy it at the original price of 1688 points. Its reputation is slowly growing; first praised for its appearance, then won over by its feel. For skill-based junglers like Luna, smoothness is crucial, and once you get this skin, you can't go back to the original.

Breaking into the top ten proves that excellent products don't rely on discounts to drive sales. Ironically, both products are available for free in the international version. How about that for the Chinese players?
