EDG (Edward Gaming) became champions of League of Legends Worlds 2021 after defeating Damwon KIA in a dominating fashion. Thus, as per the norm, all the players will receive a skin for their favorite champion under their name.
While there have been a few leaks over the past few months about which champions are going to get the skins, there had been no information since then. However, it seems that the Chinese community ended up leaking splash art for the skins and the League of Legends community lost their minds.
Fans are overjoyed and cannot hold their excitement. Amongst them, the shoutcaster for LPL reacted to the skins by tweeting:
It is not just him, as the entire community has gone wild because there is no doubt that the designs of these skins are absolutely spectacular.
Leaks suggest that League of Legends fans will finally get their long awaited Viper Aphelios skin
Back in November and December, there were rumors that EDG's players had already decided on the champions for whom they wanted the skins. Based on past leaks, Flandre chose Graves, Jiejie chose Viego, Scout chose Zoe, Viper chose Aphelios and Meiko chose Yuumi.
It seems that those leaks were spot on as the latest splash art leaks showcase the exact same champions. It seems that this leak came from the Chinese community, which makes sense since EDG is a Chinese team after all.
However, once the leaks reached out to people across the world, they went absolutely berserk. People started sharing and retweeting the splash art and expressed their feelings regarding the skins.
There is no doubt that people are extremely happy and cannot wait for the skins to be released. In fact, fans will finally be able to get their hands on Viper's Aphelios skin that they have wanted for ages.
Viper is probably the most popular player in EDG. Fans wanted him to choose Aphelios and they made sure their message was spread all over the internet. It looks like Viper was happy to comply as he has chosen the same champion to receive the brilliant skin.
Either way, while the splash art has been leaked, there is no information on when the skins will be officially announced. It has been quite a while and the developers have been releasing a plethora of skins in every patch since the start of season 12.
As a result, fans are getting a bit impatient now. However, it is assumed that the development of the skins are done and dusted and they should be out somewhere around the month of League of Legends' Mid Season Invitational 2022.
