League of Legends: Ranking Every Single Caitlyn Skin
By Josh Tyler
We list the best skins for Caitlyn in League of Legends!
Caitlyn, the Sheriff of Piltover, is one of the most popular AD Carries in League of Legends. Hunting down foes with her trusty rifle, there are plenty of cool ways Riot has found to skin her. Here are all the different themes and skins for Caitlyn in the game!
10. Safari Caitlyn
Cost: 975 RP
This isn’t the worst skin in the game but for the cost this skin is terrible. It’s basically a tan skin with a safari hat with no unique effects or interactions.
9. Resistance Caitlyn
Cost: 520 RP
This is easily the blandest Caitlyn skin in the game. With very few unique visual effects this looks more like a chroma than an actual skin. Luckily, it’s one of her cheaper skins as well.

8. Arctic Warfare Caitlyn
Cost: 750 RP
Look, the skin costs more than the previous two, but at least the design is a bit more intricate than the others. It’s more than just a paint job and a new hat, it actually looks like they put a unique look on Cait.
7. Sheriff Caitlyn
Cost: 520 RP
Yes, it’s more on the bland and basic side when it comes to Caitlyn skins but 1) it’s cheap and 2) I love the theme. It really leans into the old west aesthetic which is somewhere the Sheriff of Piltover would fit in quite well.
6. Lunar Wraith Caitlyn
Cost: 1350 RP
At least this skin is more than a simple paint job, coming with a few unique animations on her abilities and recall. Unfortunately, these animations are just horrible. I don’t like any of these animations, I think the theme is terrible for Cait, and the color scheme of the Lunar Wraith line is just ugly in general. Added to the fact that this is one of the more expensive skins this is a no-buy for me.
5. Pulsefire Caitlyn
Cost: 1820 RP
This skin looks clean as hell, with the sterile white base and the metallic blue accents. I also love all the animations, especially her recall where she steps through a portal through the old west back to her base. The ability animations, while futuristic and still pleasing, are a bit lacking for my taste, but overall this is a great skin, if a bit expensive.
4. Headhunter Caitlyn
Cost: 975 RP
It’s a bit on the basic side as far as animations go (there aren’t any new animations and her abilities are just kind of re-skinned). However, Cait’s model looks very cool in this Headhunter theme and her futuristic gun looks very cool. It’s not as good as Pulsefire, obviously, but it’s almost half the cost and that slots it ahead.
3. Pool Party Caitlyn
Cost: 1350 RP
I love almost all the Pool Party skins and Caitlyn’s is no exception. The added animations on her interactions and recalls are…okay, I guess, but the best ones come with her abilities. I love the little splash effects on her Q and shots, as well as the fact that her gun has become a super soaker. I would have dominated on my lawn with that beast as a kid.
2. Officer Caitlyn
Cost: 975 RP
I’ll admit there’s a bit of bias on this skin but let’s be real: Cait’s gun in this skin is sick. I love the look of that rifle along with her trooper shades (seriously, Demacia Vice Caitlyn when?) which makes up for the lack of new animations. Throw in the fact that it’s pretty affordable and I’m sold.
1. Arcade Caitlyn
Cost: 1350 RP
I could wax poetic for pages about how great this skin is. Not only is the base model spectacular (it’s somehow like Pulsefire and Pool Party had a baby in the best possible way), but the new animations are easily lightyears ahead of all her other skins.
dark. Next. The Best AD Carries to Main
The ability animations are incredible, with the usual 80s arcade pixel effects you’re accustomed to seeing, but what’s even cooler is all the homages to the old-school video games in her animations. From Duck Hunt in her recall (shhh…she’s hunting Teemos), Space Invaders on her Piltover Peacemaker, and Pacman on her Yordle Snap Trap, it’s a vintage gamer’s dream. Plus, it’s a very reasonable cost. 100% recommend a purchase on this one if you’re a Caitlyn player.
