There are several factors to consider when discussing the most popular skins in League of Legends. The sales and the use of the skin are not the only factors that determine its popularity. We should also consider how popular the skin is among the game's community in terms of fan art and general fan recognition.
Top 10 Most Popular League of Legends Skins
Elementalist Lux

Release Date: November 28th, 2016
Price: 3250 RP
This skin is unique. Riot Games did their best for the beloved champion Lux. There are a total of 10 forms in this skin for the game. The player starts with a light form and can go through four more, which can be mixed to get five more. Players can change their form throughout the game. All skin forms are based on the elements and bring an amazingly deceptive atmosphere. The skin also includes a complete rework of Lux's voice lines, animations, etc.

There's so much here that Skin Spotlight created a skin video that lasts as much as 22 minutes, while it takes no more than a few minutes to examine the average skin in detail.
PROJECT: Vayne

Release Date: November 22nd, 2017
Price: 1820 RP
PROJECT: Vayne is rightfully one of the best-selling League of Legends skins. It's a legendary skin that adds a ton of new animations and some striking visuals. She's dressed in cyberpunk-style armor - with a holographic visor and electrifying cape. Her abilities also have a holographic effect, making fighting infinitely more exciting.
Thanks to this skin, the player can immerse himself in the world of Cyberpunk.

Little Devil Teemo

Release Date: October 19th, 2016
Price: 1350 RP
Teemo is a small Yordle with a big reputation. He is known for being the most hated champion in the League. Playing the character is extremely enjoyable, especially when he manages to create chaos thanks to mushrooms and poison darts to keep his enemies away from him.
In 2016, Riot gave him a skin that fully reflects his essence. It turns him into a little devil - he gets horns, pitchforks, and a devil's crown. Besides this skin, Teemo has other skins, but none of them suits him like this one.
High Noon Lucian

Release Date: August 30th, 2018
Price: 1820 RP
It is rare to find a Lucian player who does not have the High Noon Lucian skin as his current skin. The theme of this skin is Wild West. But this skin is not only notable for its beauty and grace but also for the fact that it turns Lucian into a devil in disguise. It can be seen, for example, when he attacks and the smoke of hell hangs behind him, and his guns symbolize the duality of the sheriff and the devil: one is corrupt and borrowed from Satan, and the other has an angelic appearance.

Dark Cosmic Jhin

Release Date: June 13th, 2019
Price: 1820 RP
According to the legend, Jhin is a "meticulous criminal psychopath" who considers murder an art. Dark Cosmic Jhin is part of the Dark Star/Cosmic line of skins. This space-themed skin is probably the best one Riot has released for Jhin, which is why it is the top seller.
In it, Jhin becomes an interstellar creature with a terrifying mask and a terrifying eye, as well as four arms and armor, as if she were an alien. The skin animations are great, the vibe is fantastic, and it's a great product for its money.

Star Guardian Jinx

Release Date: October 6th, 2016
Price: 1820 RP
The protagonist of the latest League anime series, and because of her growing popularity, we can include her in this list. The Star Guardian skin line is extremely popular, with the Jinx skin taking the lead. All previous skins made the character look a bit crazy, which is why the Star Guardian skin has become so hot - Jinx in the image of a magical girl character.

Pajama Guardian Cosplay Urgot

Release Date: April 1st, 2020
Price: 1350 RP
Fans have been asking for an Urgot skin for Starguard for years, and it has become a meme in the League of Legends community. And now Riot has ended that meme by introducing a new Urgot skin in 2020.
This skin turns Urgot into a magical girl and completes his look with sequins and a kawaii cat helmet. That said, the funny thing is that the character's lines don't change. And being in the image of a cute girl, he will shout: "Controlling them will be easy... with my hand on their throat" and "Endless suffering, m-m-m-m. Wonderful".

Assassin Master Yi

Release Date: December 17th, 2019
Price: 390 RP
This skin is probably the most popular skin of all time.
Since it costs 390 RP, which is very cheap, and Yi is the champion everyone plays when they start playing the game, this skin will also be popular. That's why players see it a lot in the game, even though it's not as tricked out as the skins that came out after it. However, previously, people didn't even have to pay for the skin, as they used to get 400 RP for free. However, Riot stopped this practice a few seasons ago.

Dunkmaster Darius

Release Date: October 12th, 2014
Price: 1820 RP
Dunkmaster Darius is an iconic League of Legends skin. He has stunning animations and a very nice elaborated design. What's even better is that it's a lot of fun to play with this skin. This is where Darius utters his classic line: "Want a piece of D-man?"

DJ Sona

Release Date: February 25th, 2015
Price: 3250 RP
If the player has DJ Sona, the Rift turns into a disco. Sona takes on the role of a futuristic DJ and lets the entire team rock out to three unique tunes. The Ultimate skins are the highest qualityskins available and represent the most time and effort put into them by the Riot team. Sona is almost unrecognizable with this skin, as her appearance has been completely redesigned.
