A lot of players would assume that the Wild Rift iterations of League PC skins would pale in comparison of the originals. But Wild Rift Darkbringer Yasuo completely disproves this theory. Wielding a dark blade, and covered in black and orange flames, the skin looks phenomenal. His rival is Dawnbringer Riven, which is also an amazing skin. Here is a quick preview for the brand new Wild Rift skin.

Preview
As a whole, the skin is really clean. The auto attack animations in Darkbringer Yasuo are very crisp, adding extra sound effects and new voice lines. When Yasuo hits his first ability, his sword flashes with energy, portraying his incredible power. Once he stacks the ability enough, the tornado he sends out is colored both red and black, making for a dazzling spectacle. As for his windwall, Yasuo creates a crator in the ground which spews out fire, blocking all projectile attacks. And last but definitely not least is Wild Rift Darkbringer Yasuo’s ultimate. Rather than slashing around in the air, he lets out one big swing, bringing light down with him.
In Conclusion
Just like previously mentioned, the skin looks great. Wild Rift as a whole does an excellent job of creating their skins from scratch. Though this particular one already existed in League PC, the skin team actually work from the ground up. In essence, they don’t actually resuse the assets, but rather create new ones for the mobile version. What results is often a newer, better looking version of the preexisting skin, but in Wild Rift. In this instance, it’s up to the reader to judge whether or not wild Rift’s iteration looks better than the original League of Legends version.
