Here’s everything you need to know about all the Ultimate skins released so far in League of Legends.
Ultimate skins are the highest tier skin purchasable in League of Legends. According to Riot, every ultimate skin creates an expansive new fantasy for the champion, and they raise the novelty bar for skins in some way.
First introduced with the Pulsefire Ezreal skin back in 2012, Ultimate skins quickly grabbed players’ attention and became one of the most popular skins in League of Legends. However, despite having such a huge demand from the player base, there are only a few ultimate skins in the game.

“Ultimate skins will always require extra development time to craft, create, and ship, “Riot Bellissimoh previously said on why there’s a lack of Ultimate skins. “And most importantly, all of this effort should translate to an experience that you think is best-in-class for the champion.”
Regardless, there are currently six Ultimate skins in LoL. And the most recent addition was the K/DA ALL OUT Seraphine skin added in 2020.
Ultimate Skins
Here is the full list of all six ultimate skins that have been released so far in League of Legends:
Pulsefire Ezreal
- Release Date: June 29, 2012
- Price: 3250 RP
Pulsefire Ezreal is the first Ultimate skin in League of Legends that was released back in 2012. However, it is still one of the most popular Ezreal skins, even though he has the most number of skins in League of Legends.
Pulsefire Ezreal has four different forms that unlock at level 1, level 6, level 11, and level 16, respectively.
Spirit Guard Udyr
- Release Date: July 16, 2013 (Reworked on August 24, 2022)
- Price: 3250 RP
Spirit Guard Udyr is the second Ultimate skin in League of Legends and by far the best Udyr skin in the game. The skin has five different forms, one for his base and four for his four abilities.
According to many players, Spirit Guard Udyr defines what Udyr should look like, and many believe that without this skin, Udyr is not even playable.
Udyr received his long-anticipated rework in 2022, and after that, Spirit Guard Udyr became of the fan favorites.
DJ Sona
- Release Date: February 25, 2015
- Price: 3250 RP
Released in 2015, DJ Sona quickly became one of the best Sona skins in League of Legends, with three different forms you can toggle through by typing “/toggle”, “/g”, or pressing ctrl + 5. These three forms are Concussive, Ethereal, and Kinetic, where each form has a unique set of visual and sound effects.
Elementalist Lux
- Release Date: November 28, 2016
- Price: 3250 RP
Elementalist Lux is the most detailed Lux skin in the game and one of the best ultimate skins in League of Legends. Elementalist Lux has 10 different forms: Light, Water, Fire, Air, Nature, Ice, Storm, Magma, Mystic, and Dark.
Elementalist Lux starts every match in her Light form. As she gains Elemental Power from hitting enemy champions with a spell (using her Q, E, or R abilities), she will reach a power level that will let her transform.
And after building up the energy, Lux can change her forms twice throughout the game. The first transformation will be to the element you select. The second form is determined based on which two elements have been selected in combination. The combinations are:
- Magma: Fire + Nature
- Storm: Fire + Air
- Mystic: Water + Nature
- Ice: Water + Air
- Dark: Nature + Air or Water + Fire
Elementalist Lux has so many animations and details that Riot Games will never make any ultimate skins like Elementalist Lux again to avoid the game-breaking experience.
Gun Goddess Miss Fortune
- Release Date: March 22, 2018
- Price: 2775 RP
Gun Goddess Miss Fortune is currently the only ultimate skin that costs 2775 RP. The skin has four different forms: Scarlet Fair, Zero Hour, Starswarm, and Royal Arms.
K/DA ALL OUT Seraphine
- Release Date: October 29, 2020
- Price: 3250 RP
K/DA ALL OUT Seraphine came out in 2020 with the introduction of Riot’s virtual star Seraphine. It has three variants: K/DA ALL OUT Seraphine Indie, K/DA ALL OUT Seraphine Rising Star, and K/DA ALL OUT Seraphine Superstar.
However, unlike DJ Sona, K/DA ALL OUT Seraphine skin will not have all forms unlocked. And in order to unlock all of them, players have to go through a Missions system.
LoL Best Ultimate Skins
- Best (S-tier): Elementalist Lux, Spirit Guard Udyr
- Good (A-tier): DJ Sona, Pulsefire Ezreal, Gun Goddess Miss Fortune
- Average (B-tier): K/DA ALL OUT Seraphine
All the ultimate skins have some of the best animations in League of Legends and are worth the price. However, both the Elementalist Lux and Spirit Guard Udyr have a slight advantage because of their insane forms, while K/DA ALL OUT Seraphine is at the bottom of our list because of how basic her skin variants look compared to other ultimate skins.
