Riot quickly backpedals on paid old-school skins in League of Legends Classic after backlash

League of Legends Classic has launched in Riot Games' public test environment, featuring a reduced champion roster and character builds from 2013 and earlier. The mode has received mixed reactions, particularly regarding its visual presentation, with modern character models and the option to unlock or purchase classic skins. A user criticized the charging for classic skins, leading to over 6,000 upvotes on a subreddit post. In response, Riot Games announced that all classic skins would be unlocked and set as the default appearance. Riot explained their design choice to blend elements from various patches to accommodate diverse player preferences, as indicated by survey responses. As the mode moves to standard servers, Riot plans to make changes based on player votes regarding new patches.
