Overview

Skins are cosmetic changes for most abilities. Skins may alter aspects of your ability. Here's a list of what could be changed:

The model and the textures used for the model
Effects (particles and other effects e.g. sword slashes)
Idle (the idle pose) for the stand and/or the user
Pose music or/and the pose itself
Animations
Voicelines
Quotes

Skins do not alter the actual moveset nor any features of it (such as cooldowns). You can buy skins from the in-menu shop by purchasing Skin Crates with the use of Universal Shards (u̶S), which you can obtain 400u̶S every day by doing the Daily Quest given by the Daily Quest (NPC) or by simply selling items to the Black Marketeer.

Here is what happens if you equip a skin for the ability that you're currently using:

If you're not in combat you will respawn on the spot (same health and cooldowns).

If you want to equip a skin for your stored (not currently in use) ability:

Nothing will happen, but when you change to that ability it will be changed to the equipped skin.

Crate Pity

Crate Pity is a mechanic that was added in Version 1.8. How it works is that every 100th pull is now guaranteed to be a Mythic skin .

Unusuals

Unusuals is a mechanic similar to the one present within Team Fortress 2, in which there is an exceedingly rare chance when opening skin crates that you might come upon a skin truly unique, the skin differs with 5 possible patterns and 72 possible colors. Additionally their VFX changes color correspondingly on their unusual color.

Skins

Trivia

Originally, the Old Universe didn’t have a skin system, so skins were obtained by using an item on the ability, which was tedious to find.
Though the Unusual feature commonly changes the appearance and VFX color of the skin it applies to, there are certain exceptions in which the skin won't be properly altered by this, making the skin mostly unchanged if not the exact same as if it didn't have the Unusual status. The Unusual's charm, thankfully, will be shown regardless without alteration, making it so people can tell it's authenticity.
- Examples of this happening: CHROMA (P//S), Yami (Suna Suna No Mi), Galaxy Blade (Yasuo)
