Weekly Giveaways
League of Legends has maintained its position as one of the most popular games since its launch in 2009. With over 170 champions and more than 1800 skins available. While most skins fall within a reasonable price range, some stand out for their premium pricing.
These expensive skins often come with unique features, exclusive content, or limited availability that justifies their higher cost. In this article, we'll explore the top 5 most expensive League of Legends skins in no particular order, what makes them special,
1. Immortalized Legend Ahri
Immortalized Legend Ahri is one of the most expensive skins. The skin comes with a price of 59,260 RP, which translates to approximately $429. This skin is no longer available for purchase and was originally priced at this premium cost as part of the signature collection versions.
The Immortalized Legend series was created to honor professional League of Legends players who achieved legendary status in the competitive scene. Ahri's version specifically celebrates Faker. The skin commemorates his incredible career and countless achievements in professional play.
2. Immortalized Legend Kai'Sa
Immortalized Legend Kai'Sa comes in as another incredibly expensive skin with a price of 58,865 RP, approximately $429. This skin is also no longer available for purchase and was originally priced at this premium cost as part of the signature collection versions. Like the Ahri variant, this skin belongs to the Immortalized Legend series that honors player Uzi.
3. PAX Twisted Fate
PAX Twisted Fate launched the PAX skin series as one of League's earliest cosmetics. This skin was exclusively distributed to attendees of PAX 2009, making it one of the oldest and rarest skins in the game's history. The skin's value comes entirely from its extreme rarity. The simple fact that it was only available to a limited number of convention attendees over 15 years ago makes it incredibly rare. The skin is no longer available for purchase, and the original promotional codes cannot be redeemed. The only way to obtain PAX Twisted Fate now is by purchasing an account that already owns it. This has led to accounts with this skin being sold for thousands of dollars on the secondary market, despite the skin itself having relatively basic effects compared to modern releases.
4. King Rammus
King Rammus is a legacy cosmetic skin that was only granted to players who took part in League of Legends during its closed beta phase, which concluded on October 21, 2009. It was never available for purchase and was not given out through any promotions or codes. This makes it one of the most exclusive skins in the entire game. There's absolutely no way to obtain it now except by purchasing an account that already has it. Accounts with King Rammus typically sell for +$150 or more on the secondary market.
5. Black Alistar
Black Alistar was released on June 13, 2009, exclusively for players who pre-ordered League of Legends' Digital Collector's Edition. This legacy-tier skin was never sold through the in-game store and remains unavailable for purchase. The skin's exclusivity drives its market value, and to get it, you need to buy an account that has this skin. Account prices typically range from $200 to $300.
Since the Digital Collector's Edition promotion ended, no new copies of Black Alistar have entered circulation. This makes it another piece of League history that can only be obtained through secondary account purchases.
Final Words
The most expensive League of Legends skins represent far more than just cosmetic upgrades. Whether it's the Immortalized Legend skins honoring esports legends like Faker and Uzi with their $400+ price tags, or the legacy skins like PAX Twisted Fate, King Rammus, and Black Alistar that commemorate the game's earliest days, each carries its own story and significance.
