Riot quickly backpedals on paid old-school skins in League of Legends Classic after backlash


League of Legends Classic, the new mode which remixes the MOBA by deleting most of the roster and restoring all sorts of old builds and character kits from 2013 and prior, has hit Riot’s public test environment.

It’s been met with mixed reception since then, in part due to its approach to old visuals—when the PBE version launched, players had modern character models, voice work, and spell effects by default, with “classic skins” unlockable with earned tokens or real money. A thread from user prime_desire with over 6,000 upvotes on the League of Legends subreddit called the mode “League ‘not so’ Classic,” saying “honestly I would be embarrassed to release something like this. Charging for Classic Skins is genuinely wild.”
