Then you’re in luck. Riot Games has created a whole skin line dedicated to sugary delights, from waffles, muffins, and candy canes, to licorice and peppermint. Aside from looking like total treats, the skins are fun, playful, and sure to tilt your enemies off the face of the Rift. I mean, who can seriously keep their cool when they’re being whacked to death with cookies? Well, you better avoid reading any further if you’ve got an empty stomach. We’re ranking all of these sweet skins based on how droolworthy they are.
8. Lollipoppy
Released: October 19th, 2010 Price: 975 RP When this skin was first released, it was the thing of nightmares. Sadly, the skin’s updated version hasn’t made much improvements. It’s still creepy and doesn’t exactly give off the delightful, droolworthy vibe the other skins in this line have. Now, if you ignore the eerie smile, garish green hair, and oompa loompa-like outfit, this skin does have a few nice touches. Poppy’s hammer is a cute rainbow lollipop, and there are some subtle chocolate references in the animations. Overall though, animations are dull and don’t really get your stomach grumbling.
7. Bittersweet Lulu
Released: March 20th, 2012 Price: 975 RP Okay. Lollipopy might be nightmare-inducing, but this skin is genuinely scarring. It makes Lulu look like she came straight out of an 18+ horror movie (move over Fiddlesticks). Honestly, the only reason I’m putting this skin higher up than Lollipoppy is because I’m scared of what Lulu will do to me if I don’t. Aside from leaving you emotionally traumatized, the skin itself is pretty mediocre. The outfit is bland and the animations are lackluster. At least Pix looks cute.
6. Sugar Rush Zilean
Released: December 17th, 2019 Price: 1350 RP Who says the Muffin Man dwells in Drury lane? Thanks to this skin, you can meet the Muffin Man in the Rift – Zilean is essentially transformed into him. He throws muffins at his opponents, his weapon is made from gingerbread, and in his recall he even bakes up a batch of gingerbread men. Animations feel surprisingly smooth and impactful, and really immerse you in the sweet theme. Unfortunately, the skin is let down by Zilean’s clunky base model. But if Zilean gets a rework in the near future? We’ll be looking at a top tier skin.
5. Dark Candy Fiddlesticks
Released: December 14th, 2012 Price: 975 RP If you’re a bit of a Scrooge around Christmas time, you’ve come to the right skin. It essentially transforms Fiddlesticks into a candy cane you don’t want to find in your stocking. Sinister but somehow festive, this skin scores top marks for creativity. Fiddlestick’s weapon is a Christmas tree – which he hides behind when stalking his prey – and he rocks an elf hat and a jolly-looking scarf. Now, you don’t get any fancy animations. But at a price tag of 975 RP? I’m not complaining.
4. Sugar Rush Evelynn
Released: December 17th, 2019 Price: 1350 RP This skin is probably the most unusual in the line. It turns Evelynn into a half cat half chocolate creature, but it works surprisingly well. She rocks a tasty pair of chocolate leggings, and she now has strawberries on her lashers. The particle effects and animations are total eye candy too (literally), and boast exceptional visual clarity despite the intricate detailing. Sound effects are sweet and not overly obtrusive. Plus, the recall is downright hilarious (and kind of horrifying); Evelynn lures some lil gingerbread men to her with delicious-looking strawberries, then shows her true form, stabs them, and devours them whole. Honestly, who can resist such heavenly delights? Sadly, the skin’s ultimate does feel a little flat, but other than that, I can’t fault the skin.
3. Sugar Rush Ziggs
Released: December 17th, 2019 Price: 1350 RP This skin is absolute madness, but I can’t help but fall in love with it. There’s just something about the ridiculous whipped cream hairdo, crazy candy eyes, and cupcake bombs that draws me (and my money) in. Plus, the recall is insanely creative, and looks like it came straight out of a Looney Tunes show. The icing on the cake though has to be the ultimate. You get to throw a giant, ground-shattering cupcake at your enemies. It basically turns the Rift into Cloudy with a Chance of Cupcakes. The chromas also give this skin some extra brownie points; they aren’t just color filters and actually feature unique elements!
2. Sugar Rush Braum
Released: December 17th, 2019 Price: 1350 RP This skin honestly looks like it was made in Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory. The outfit is brimming with sugary delights like biscuit-themed shoulder pads and a cute cupcake hat, and animations are equally sugary; your mark now looks like a cute candy and your E is a giant cookie. The ultimate even gives the Rift a chocolatey (and tasty) makeover. But where the skin really shines is Braum’s shield. It’s literally a giant ice cream sandwich topped with chocolate sauce and sprinkles. It’s tasty, it’s ridiculous, and I’m here for it. Oh, and to top it all off? The recall is the most adorable thing in existence. Poros are truly amazing.
1. Candy King Ivern
Released: October 4th, 2016 Price: 1350 RP This skin is clearly called candy king for a reason: it’s superior in virtually every way possible. Instead of a tree, Ivern is now made up of various candies and baked goods, including a half-eaten donut, cupcakes, and ice cream. His animations are absolutely gorgeous, derpy, and packed with vibrant colors and sugary sweet details. Visual clarity is phenomenal, and everything feels smooth and distinct. You even get some nifty new voice lines. Sound effects are also S tier – they genuinely get you in the “candyland” mood. But the cherry on top is the ultimate. Daisy’s new look is basically a giant cupcake monster. Oh, and your recall reveals a dark side to the usually lovable Ivern – we’re talking Thanos-level evil.
