When will the skin debt be settled? The anniversary version might bring a surprise with its legendary quality.

The King of Glory Chess collaboration event was a huge success. After completing the daily tasks with great effort, I finally accumulated 1000 points to redeem my favorite skin. The summer event has now come to an end, and it's about time to return to the original track: climbing the ranks. The end of the season and the start of the S45 timer are making me anxious. There are now lane matchmaking and penalty mechanisms. The King's Mark is not difficult to solve, but it is still related to the annual skin. At least I can get into this field first before exploring other modes.

Saying goodbye to another version milestone, don't be discouraged yet. Summer is just the appetizer; the 11th anniversary celebration is coming. Following past examples, there will definitely be a new legendary limited edition skin. The theme and its owner are yet to be revealed. But did you know that Xiao Wang has a huge skin debt? In December 2024, Cang announced a revamp, including skins. During this period, a voting event was launched. Because he had been the village chief of no skins for more than nine years, his loyal fans felt indignant on his behalf. The community joined forces to rewrite fate. Before the epic skin was released, he won a legendary skin with a precipitous lead in votes.

The vote will be held in 2024; a result has not yet been reached in 2026.

The charm is irresistible, and it just so happens that Cang is being promoted. How can other heroes get a share of the pie? Fortunately, the planning and operation are in place. Instead of one champion, the top three were changed. The beneficiaries are Ake and Milady. The former got the Rakshasa Sea of Delusion skin, which will be launched in early 2026. Cang is nowhere to be seen. Milady, on the other hand, got the Mahjong Queen skin in advance. It's a 6-yuan epic skin from the Dream series. This one is to appease people first. Anyway, the data and trends show that this mid-lane market is ordinary. He is gradually becoming a mediocre mage. He split pushes towers but does not participate in team fights. The attributes were adjusted to make him a team fight hero. Players still insist on being detached from the masses. They even carry teleport and carry out their own tower-stealing plans. The expectation for the new skin? It's really not high.

To deduce the operational logic behind the plan, considering the three choices, Ake is a sure thing and should be dealt with in advance. For the third-place Mi Lai Di, the existing Dream series maintains her popularity, so there won't be much of a fuss. Considering the unresolved voting fees, it can be set aside for now. As for the remaining Cang, its highest quality so far is still Epic. Its performance in ranked matches isn't bad, but its popularity has been surpassed by Ao Yin and Sun Quan. However, this skin debt will likely need to be settled next season. The recent frequent adjustments might be a hint at this; let's wait patiently.
