Magician – Platinum Aladdin / Blue Note Aladdin
Both of Magician’s Aladdin-themed purple skins change his skill effect. Normally, when his illusion is hit, there’s no unique animation. But with these two skins, the illusion dissolves like a ghost when struck by a hunter—very immersive!
Mercenary – Springhand
Most of Mercenary’s skins share the same default red bracer animation when vaulting. But with Springhand, the wall vault effect turns golden, making it visually distinct!
The Ripperess (Hermit) – Gold Tranquil Pike & Other High-Tier Skins
The Gold Tranquil Pike, her matching accessory, has a special dash effect—a few small jellyfish appear around her while dashing. In fact, most of her high-tier skins have custom floating effects tied to her skills, making them extra dynamic.
Night Watch – Solar Eclipse
When using Gale Surge with the Solar Eclipse skin, a glowing red sun appears behind him, and it’s not just a static image—it spins and animates, adding dramatic flair to his abilities.
Acrobat – Joker
This Persona 5 crossover skin has a built-in special effect: even without the accessory, a shadow of Arsène appears when he jumps on his fireballs after awakening. It’s a cool touch usually reserved for skins with matching accessories!
First Officer – Crow
Also from the P5 crossover, First Officer’s Crow skin shows a phantom of Robin Hood when he uses his pocket watch. The visual effect is animated, and the 2023 rerun even enhanced the afterimage duration and attack animation—a welcome upgrade!
Wheel – Breaker of Formations
Wheel’s new championship skin Breaker of Formations features a special red trail effect when transforming into wheel form. This unique visual doesn’t appear on any of his other skins—top-tier quality!
