Alright, let’s talk about these “Battle Boss” skins. Man, what a ride that was!
So, I started out just browsing through the store, you know, window shopping, not really planning on buying anything. But then, I saw it – the Battle Boss line. Those skins just looked so darn cool with all the retro arcade vibes.

I’ve always been a sucker for that kind of aesthetic. Reminds me of the good old days, spending hours at the arcade, pumping quarters into those machines.
First, I tried out the Battle Boss Blitzcrank skin. I played a few games, really got a feel for it. The sound effects are just perfect, all those classic arcade bleeps and bloops. I won a couple, lost a couple – you know how it goes.
- Pros:
- Awesome design – seriously, the pixelated look is just top-notch.
- Sound effects – like I said, perfect for that retro feel.
- Cons:
- Can be a little distracting at first, with all the flashing lights and stuff.
- Doesn’t change the gameplay much, it’s really just a visual thing.
Then I moved on to Battle Boss Brand. Now, this one was a bit different. Felt a little more impactful, you know? Like, the abilities just felt… bigger, somehow. Maybe it was just me.
Anyway, I messed around with that for a while. Got some kills, got killed, you know, standard stuff.
- Pros:
- Makes you feel like a final boss character, which is always fun.
- Animations are pretty smooth, even with the pixelated style.
- Cons:
- Pricey, like most of these skins. Had to think twice before grabbing this one.
- Again, doesn’t really affect how you play the game.
I even dabbled with the Battle Boss Malzahar skin. That one’s a bit weird, not gonna lie. It’s got this whole “evil overlord” thing going on. The voidlings look like little spaceships. Kind of cool, kind of silly.
Didn’t play too many games with this one, though. It just didn’t quite click with me like the others did.
The last skin I grabbed was the Battle Boss Ziggs skin. Bomb guy but make it arcade. I played a couple of rounds with this skin equipped.
- Pros:
- The bombs look like 8-bit grenades.
- Perfect for living out your bomberman fantasy.
- Cons:
- It’s a popular skin, so you see it a lot in matches.
- The novelty can wear off quickly.
Final Thoughts
Overall, I gotta say, the Battle Boss skins are pretty neat. They’re definitely a nostalgia trip. I ended up buying a few of them, and I don’t regret it. They’re fun to use, and they make the game feel a little different, even if it’s just cosmetic. If you’re into that retro arcade style, you should definitely check them out. Just be prepared to spend some cash, ’cause they ain’t cheap!
