What made the League of Legends World Championship Finals so incredible these past two years was clearly the opening ceremonies where KD/A and True Damage, the two virtual music bands created by Riot Games, shined. Because of the huge success that they had, Riot Games decided to tell us a bit more about the conception of these two skin family in their last Ask Riot.
It's not for nothing that we have champions like Ekko at the head of the True Damage group: this little rhythm genius capable of manipulating time goes very well as a headliner, as for Qiyana: she has everything natural from a Hip-Hop Queen.
That idea perfectly fits her Prestige Edition skin that was designed by Louis Vuitton, following their new partnership with Riot Games.
The True Damage Qiyana Prestige Edition skin was created by Nicolas Ghesquière, artistic director of women’s collections at Louis Vuitton. This isn't the first time French couture has got involved in video games, but having a champion skin entirely designed by a top fashion designer? Surely a first!
It appears that Qiyana won't stay the only champion to have a skin created by a fashion designer, since Senna should also soon receive a Prestige Edition skin also branded by the Louis Vuitton house.
We're still wondering if Riot Games is planning a complete True Damage album in a similar way to Pentakill, and apparently the question isn't closed for now. Lead Producer of Champions Reav3 explains that "first the Champions Team needs to make enough pretty boys to make up an entire boy band, then it will be up to the Personalization Team to deliver, if they should choose to."
If this hold any truth, a League of Legends boys band might become a reality. Which champions do you feel should take part in this band?
Ezreal, Taric, Jayce, Rakan, Varus... Numerous champions will fit the theme. Don't you think?
After months of tests, Riot Games seems to finally be satisfied with Wukong's rework as they announced on twitter that the current build will be the one making it to live servers on patch 10.6!
