Free League of Legends Skins: How It Works

 

Vindicator Vayne is a new addition to the League of Legends store, and was released yesterday. It's available for 1350 RP.

The skin forms a different take on the classic League character, changing her into a cyborg clad in blue energy with robotic wings and visor. Her weapons and abilities change to reflect the form as well, like a having a "Vindicator's Draw" (E) which fires blue missiles instead of naming her auto attacks.

When Is the Best Time to Buy Vindicator Vayne?

It's hard to say – the skin is currently going for 1350 RP, but there is no telling how long it will be before it goes on sale. The average League of Legends sale puts a skin on sale anywhere from 50% off to 75% off with some exceptions during very specific events, so if you want to buy now or have the funds to do so, now is the best time. If not, just check back periodically for updates on when Vindicator Vayne will be on sale next.

Tips for Playing Vindicator Vayne

Vindicator Vayne's abilities have a different theme, so it can be tough to figure out which ability does what. Here are their names and the order they appear in her lore:

-"Dark Lady's Call" (Q) - This is your standard single target command, reminiscent of Ashe's "Frost Shot." It marks your target, slowing them for a few seconds.

-"The Hex Core" (W) - This is Vayne's main damage ability, and it fires a medium ranged blue projectile that deals extra damage the farther your target is away from you. It also marks your target as "Hexed," which means they will take significant bonus true damage.

-"Nightfall" (E) - As the name implies, this is your standard ground target ability. It's a small AoE spell that deals damage to targets in the area. You can also cast "Nightfall" while mid-air to slow your fall!

-"Rampage" (R) - This will summon Valor, Vayne's pet, to assist you in battle. His abilities will be available for your use and he will attack nearby enemies until he dies, runs out of things to do, gets killed himself, or is recalled by using "Call of the Nightwing."

-"Condemn" (F) - This ability fires a long distance red projectile that will knock up all enemies it comes into contact with.

-"Vindicator's Rush" (LMB) - This is Vayne's basic attack which becomes available after "Draw" runs out of charges, or after she casts a spell. It replaces her right click and allows you to use "Draw" mid-fight without having to switch away from your auto attack.

Unlocking the "Vindicator" title: To unlock the Summoner Icon and Title for this skin, you must complete a specific task: Finish a game as Vayne with an Alternate Skin purchased before 11:59 PM on August 5th (PDT).

Conclusion

Vindicator Vayne is a good example of an alternate skin that adds some new elements to the classic League character, in this case becoming a cyborg with robotic wings and visor.

As far as skins go, it's not bad in terms of price or overall look, but you could probably find something better if you are only looking for one skin to spend your money on.

But if you are a fan of Vayne, I'd say it's worth checking out!
