How a $499.99 Skin Changed League of Legends

League of Legends is one of the big reasons why games today are all monetized by selling "skins". When League came out over a decade ago with skins costing a handful of dollars, no one would've thought that 15 years later players would be spending $500 dollars on just one skin for one champion. But, here we are.
Immortalized Legend Ahri is now the most expensive skin the game, existing as an honor to the pro player Faker.
But if you want to honor him, you better have a lot of money to spend on pixels.
