Riot Reveals New Vayne and Kai’Sa Skins Honoring Uzi in LoL Hall of Legends

Riot Games just made public the latest news of their Hall of Legends campaign, which is now celebrating one of the most known League of Legends players ever. This time it’s all about Uzi, the Chinese star ADC player who has been admired for long years by fans and other pros. To honor his contribution, Riot will be introducing two special skins: one for Vayne and another for Kai’Sa — both champions he played a lot in his competitive years.

Uzi and His Never Forgotten Legacy

Uzi, who is considered a master of the bot lane, had an amazing career that sadly didn’t include a Worlds title, though he came close a few times. Even without that, he made records like being the first to reach 1,500 kills and helping his team win LPL trophies as well as the 2018 MSI. These achievements already proved his place among the legends. His way of playing, very aggressive and super precise, was especially impressive when he’s playing Vayne or Kai’Sa, who he practically made famous again at the time.

Vayne Skin, But Not Just Any

Vayne was like Uzi’s second name — or maybe first. Riot is making what they’re calling a “Transcendent-tier” skin, which is the most special kind they make. It’s supposed to reflect Uzi’s style and his career highlights, maybe even showing some of his signature moves like his famous dodges and flashy plays that people still talk about. There might be lines or effects that recall his personality or moments from his career too, which could make it a very nostalgic skin for longtime fans.

Kai’Sa, Not Left Behind

Even if Vayne gets the spotlight, Kai’Sa is also part of this memory. Uzi used her in many key matches as well, and she shows his flexible playstyle. It’s said she’ll get a high-level skin too, maybe Mythic or Legendary, so fans of both champions will get something. Since Kai’Sa is very popular right now, this choice also makes sense for the broader League community.

A Tribute More Personal

Unlike the first Hall of Legends event that focused more on Faker’s championships, this time Riot seems to be giving more attention to the individual journey. Uzi didn’t win Worlds, but his story is still one of greatness. So, this release is more emotional and connected with who he was as a player. Some elements could reflect his way of thinking and the fans’ love for his plays, making the whole thing more personal rather than only about titles.

When to Expect It and What’s Coming

The Uzi Hall of Legends event is supposed to be happening sometime in mid 2025. Along with the skins, players might be able to get extras like emotes, icons, and maybe a cinematic that tells the story of Uzi’s time in League. With so much anticipation already building, it’s clear that many are ready to celebrate him in a big way, not only for what he won but for the excitement he brought to the game over many years.
