In this article, we will rank the skins of Akshan from worst to best in League of Legends.
Akshan, the Rogue Sentinel, is a relatively new champion released in League of Legends as Riot added him to the game on July 22nd, 2021. Given the number of champions released in the game, Akshan is still something new for players to test and play more of. Inspired by South Asian culture, specifically India, Akshan was created as a versatile champion.
Akshan can play multiple roles, given he is a marksman-type champion. Typically, he is played in the mid and top lane and is very effective as a counterpick. With his ability to move around the map, use his range to his advantage, and get flanking plays in, Akshan can be a flashy champion. His current win rate is above 50% in both mid and top, but his pick rate is not very high.
Low popularity as a champion typically speaks to requiring more mechanical skills and such. However, one thing Riot tries to do to pump up a champion’s popularity is by introducing skins. Akshan has a few skins in his arsenal, and Riot even gave a Chroma of one of those skins for free as a drop for the Worlds 2022 event. Let’s talk about the skins Akshan have and rank them from worst to best.
