Everything You Need to Know About Kingpin Twitch

The Basics

Looking to spice up your games with a killer new look for Twitch? Let's dive into everything you need to know about Kingpin Twitch, a unique skin for Twitch. This skin is all about giving your favorite champion a fresh new look!

Quick Facts

Price: 520 RP

Released: 2009-11-20

Rarity: Common

Available: Legacy

Since its release on 2009-11-20, this Common tier skin has become a legacy skin. This means it's no longer available for purchase in the store, but you might be able to get it from chests, rerolling skins, or during specific periods in the year when Riot brings it back.

What Makes This Skin Special

Let's talk about what makes Kingpin Twitch worth your RP. At 520 RP, you're getting a budget-friendly option that still gives Twitch a fresh look, so you can stand out.

Here's what you get with Kingpin Twitch: While this skin doesn't add new effects or animations, it offers a visual redesign that gives Twitch a fresh look on the Rift.

Unlike some skins that come with a rainbow of chromas, Kingpin Twitch keeps it focused with just the base design. So sadly, no chroma options here.

One thing to keep in mind: this skin is available through the loot system. So if you're the type to save your RP, you might get lucky with a hextech chest or event orb. But don't count on it - if you really want this skin, buying it directly is your best bet.

Who made Kingpin Twitch?

Ever wonder who's responsible for making these skins? We'll break it down for you:

When you hear Kingpin Twitch in game, you're listening to the work of voice actor Doug Boyd, who brings real personality to the lines.

That splash art that caught your eye? It came from the tablet of Xi Zhang, one of Riot's talented artists who really captured the essence of Kingpin Twitch.

The Story Behind Kingpin Twitch

Many in Bilgewater get called a filthy rat, but none deserve the title more than the Kingpin himself. While other crime bosses in the port city may loathe to get their hands dirty, Twitch revels in wading into the filth himself—crossbow in hand, and a finely aged egg in his pocket.
