RP Cost: 1350 RP

Release Date: August 22, 2013

League of Legends is known for its vast array of champions and their unique skins. One such skin that stands out is Arcade Corki. This skin takes the daring pilot, Corki, and transforms him into a pixelated hero straight out of an arcade game. With vibrant colors, retro-inspired animations, and catchy sound effects, Arcade Corki brings a nostalgic charm to the Rift.

Arcade Corki was released on August 22, 2013, and is available for purchase in the in-game store for 1350 RP. This skin offers a complete visual overhaul for Corki, giving players a fresh and exciting way to experience the champion.

The Story of Arcade Corki

Arcade Corki's design draws inspiration from classic arcade games of the past. The skin features Corki as a pixelated pilot, complete with a retro flight suit and a pixelated mustache. His iconic aircraft, the Gyrocopter, is transformed into a pixelated arcade machine, complete with a joystick and buttons.

Every ability animation is reimagined with an arcade twist. Corki's Q ability, Phosphorus Bomb, is transformed into a pixelated bomb that explodes in a burst of colorful pixels upon impact. His W ability, Valkyrie, turns Corki into a pixelated rocket ship, leaving behind a trail of pixelated exhaust as he soars through the air. The E ability, Gatling Gun, replaces Corki's usual machine gun with a pixelated laser cannon, shooting bursts of pixelated energy at his enemies. Finally, Corki's ultimate ability, Missile Barrage, launches pixelated missiles that explode into a shower of pixels upon impact.

Not only do the abilities receive a visual overhaul, but the sound effects also add to the arcade theme. Each ability has a distinct retro sound, reminiscent of the blips and beeps of classic arcade games. The recall animation is particularly noteworthy, as Corki hops into his pixelated arcade machine and disappears in a flash of light, only to reappear moments later.

Corki's Story and Role in League of Legends

Corki, known as the Daring Bombardier, is a Yordle pilot who hails from the city-state of Bandle City. He is a fearless and skilled pilot, always ready to take to the skies in his trusty Gyrocopter. Corki's primary role in League of Legends is that of a marksman, dealing significant damage from a distance.

In the game, Corki's abilities revolve around his aircraft and arsenal of weapons. His Q ability, Phosphorus Bomb, allows him to drop a bomb that reveals enemies and deals damage in an area. His W ability, Valkyrie, propels Corki's Gyrocopter forward, granting him increased movement speed and leaving behind a trail of fire that damages enemies. The E ability, Gatling Gun, activates Corki's machine gun, allowing him to shred through enemy armor. Finally, his ultimate ability, Missile Barrage, launches a barrage of missiles at his enemies, dealing massive damage.

Corki's strengths lie in his ability to poke and harass enemies from a safe distance. His long-range abilities allow him to deal damage without putting himself in immediate danger. Additionally, Corki's mixed damage output, with both physical and magic damage, makes it difficult for enemies to itemize against him effectively.

However, Corki also has weaknesses that players must be aware of. He is relatively squishy and lacks mobility compared to some other marksmen. This makes him vulnerable to assassins and champions with high burst damage. Additionally, Corki's damage output relies heavily on hitting skill shots, so players must have good accuracy to maximize his potential.

In the lore of League of Legends, Corki has had various adventures and played a role in significant events. He has fought alongside other champions in battles against the Void, the Shadow Isles, and even the infamous Baron Nashor. Corki's bravery and skill have earned him a place among the champions of the League, where he continues to soar through the skies and fight for justice.
