BEST OP SKINS

1. Forsaken Gold - It has to be said that most pro awpers will use this skin, it's too clean, has powerful and light sfx, but isn't too distracting with its vfx, plus, the color pallete is great.
2. Ion - Just so clean, awp of choice for goats like Texture, when scoped in, it feels like your flicks are 300% faster, vfx and sfx aren't too distracting.
3. Reaver - a classic skin, living up to its vandal and sheriff counterparts. Notable used by TenZ, it's his go-to. Similar vibes to Forsaken, but I don't see too many pros using reaver.
4. Elderflame - Pretty good skin, but the vfx and sfx can be distracting to some players. However, it is still fun to use, and rescoping with this skin feels clean. Notably, Derke collat in lock//in gf OT r1. It's up here because the other op skins are kinda mid.
5. PRC - "-this guy is like a heat-seeking missile!!!"

Debatable to switch 2. and 3., depending on your style

HMs:
SOL - it's nice but it sounds as if you're shooting a gun made of paper. Just me?
Spline - the best, non vfx/sfx op (cryostasis doesn't count)

Now your turn pls or degrade my opinions

Cryostatis is the most goated OP
But that might be a 100T bias

classic on all my guns because spending money on riot's games is like buying a 500 dollar ahri skin

Ion
Origin
Reaver

I'd like to give a shoutout to Origin, Valiant Hero, and Radiant Entertainment System. All super solid op skins that are pretty underrated.

Also best budget op is Minima and you can't convince me otherwise

Those three are solid fs.

But is the appeal for Minima just because it trying to be the opposite of a skin? Looks like it was released one step behind in the skin production pipeline. Idk man... spline better.
