Basically, the way it works for me is that it is basically a "Pay what you want" model. I play LoL, and i don't really get anything useful out of spending money, but since i play LoL a lot and get quite a lot of enjoyment out of it, i basically tip some money to riot for this. And as a reward i get a totally useless but shiny Skin.

On the other hand, i don't see a point in spending money on rune pages or champions, as i can already get those for IP, so buying them for real money feels like spending money to skip part of the game, which is something i find to be incomprehensible, but apparently a lot of people do. (Also i don't really WANT new champions more often then i can just buy them with IP, and i have 8 unused Rune Pages at the moment.

It's so weird that everyone is thinking of all these complicated reasons to buy skins. I just find them pretty. :/

I buy skins because I have shitty impluse control and a paypal account connected to my bank account, so buying RP is fast and easy.

I own every single vlad skin, and I haven't played vlad in over a year.

But hell, riot doesn't make any money if people dont buy skins, and I love their game. Not the worst thing to throw your money at.

I only buy pages and champions, i don't find enjoyment in having skins and I think its ok to pay just to pay since i have played lol for a long time.

I am thinking 20 dollars worth, which is 5 mystery skins for me.

Ideally:

1 Kat skin
1 TF skin
1 Noc skin

2 anything else


But I think what I actually will get:

1 Garen skin. I never play Garen.
1 Nasus skin. I never play Nasus.
1 Graves skin. I never play Graves.
1 Soraka skin. Soraka sucks now.
1 Sivir skin. I never play Sivir.

I have one skin since I started playing, Redeemed Riven cos she my fav champ, the skin itself is very cool and the base skin is ehhh.

The main reason I would buy skins would be to improve the feel of the champ as well, I'd probably spam Kayle games if I had Aether Wing, her classic skin effects/model are so underwhelming. Eternum Nocturne's sound work is such a step up from the base model as well. Same reasoning goes for Pulsefire Ez but I couldn't see myself dropping that amount of money on a single skin :-/ (also why I don't have any dota2 arcanas). Glad that Riot are actually doing full VUs now instead of gating them behind skins (*cough* Udyr, Cho, Kayle, Rammus (ish), Janna, Warwick (ish), Trist, *cough*)

Because it looks cool

If you are going to spend most of you time looking at a character in game and playing with that character, might as well have that character look cool.

Yesterday I hate a really retarded bug. I was playing Ziggs mid vs Ezreal and when I've casted ult on him, skill was launched and animation disappeared and CD went off and my ult never appeared on the map, no1 took damage and nothing happened....

I had the exact opposite bug yesterday. I was playing Leblanc and I full combo'd someone and noticed my ult didn't go on cooldown and killed them 10 seconds later with another full combo.

Nocturne ults so Rengar can't see him sneak up and rape Rengar from behind.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

There are client side skins that will make it look as cool as you want just for you.

So some part of it has to be showing off to other people

Clearly other people need to bask in the awesomeness of eternum nocturne and spirit guard udyr.

Destroys**. Nocturne ult destroys Rengar's making him unable to see past his own shadow and Rengar's pretty useless without his ult or brush to jump.
