Riot is known for its talent in the entertainment industry, including lore, gameplay, music, and animation. The release of K/DA in 2018 surprised everyone with the quality of their music video for the song POP/STARS. Since then, Riot has expanded the lore of the fictional girl group and increased their influence on social media.
The K/DA skin line has had two skin sets, with three if we count the prestige editions. K/DA is one of the skin lines that has had long-lasting popularity due to the consistent musical releases and clever PR by the team behind LoL.
Opinions on skins and champions’ looks vary widely from a technical character design perspective. Today, I’ll share my opinions on the top 7 K/DA skins, regardless of how subjective they may be.
## 7. Prestige K/DA Ahri
Starting off with an unconventional choice, Ahri’s prestige skin is worth mentioning. The gold accents on her crystalized tail make this skin luxurious, and the design of her clothing showcases her charmer personality.
## 6. K/DA Evelynn
While the visuals of this skin might not be as impressive, the sound design is exceptional. The color combinations and the “pop star vibe” are well-executed.
## 5. K/DA Kai’sa
Kai’sa’s outfit suits her role as the main dancer in the group. The visual design of this skin falls a bit short compared to others, but the sound effects, especially her Q ability, are pleasant to hear.
## 4. K/DA All Out Evelynn
This skin expresses Evelynn’s personality effectively, and the leather outfit adds to her seductive appeal. However, her Demon Shade form doesn’t look as cool as her original skin.
## 3. K/DA All Out Ahri
The gradient color palette and crystal accessories complement Ahri’s tail perfectly. The skin’s SFX, particularly her ultimate ability, adds to the overall impressive execution of this skin.
## 2. K/DA All Out Seraphine
The journey to unlock all three forms of Seraphine’s skin was well-told through visual cues. The blue theme and the character development make this skin stand out.
## 1. K/DA Akali
Akali is the poster child of K/DA and has had a significant impact on fans. Her design fits her personality and position within the group, and the black light rap segment in SUPER/STARS made a lasting impression.
Character design is complex, and Riot continues to balance authenticity and visual appeal in their skin lines. The success of K/DA is a testament to their dedication. Here’s to more amazing skins in the future!
