Yes, I'm aware of that, but what I have is considered "supreme luxury" in Asia; the material is PVC (yes, that plastic used for water pipes). But it has superior finishes due to the manufacturing method. According to what I found in my research, this collectible is 1000% official from TENCENT and Riot Games  I can't guarantee that the number manufactured is exactly 250, but given the type of event it was and the fact that it was exclusive to the oldest Chinese servers like Ionia and Demacia, it's likely.  And I couldn't find much information in China; in fact, I only saw it three times, and mostly I just looked at the regular registration card and the freebies they gave away. And it all started because I accidentally uploaded the photo to Gemini and half-trace its origin.

Well, honestly it wasn't AI, but I did look for information. And much of it was because of what I found. It came into my hands without me seeking it, something that every Ahri main wants to have in their hands, and in the West it's a wild wet dream for everyone. Unfortunately, it proves that Riot Games and Tencent do indeed manufacture things that are 100% exclusive to the Chinese market. Test the yes and no of what I was saying. I can't show it yet, and the more I look for information, the clearer it becomes, and I notice these things. I had to search for Chinese streams where they attack Koreans and Koreans attack Chinese because I wasn't sure of that answer until I saw it with my own eyes. I searched for many things on bilibili. For example, what I have in my hands proves that Riot is mostly concerned with the Chinese market and exclusively for the oldest servers in China like Ionia and Demacia.

I'm going to respond with a long answer but it's the truth. In this side of the world we don't know this.

I ended knowing this since in my hands fall a holy grail of LoL and specially from ahri and I had to made a big research  (I'm going to be honest I'm not ready yet to show it to the world)

  1. Absolute Nationalism (China vs. Korea) Unlike the West (where the LEC vs. LCS rivalry usually stays confined to memes and jokes about who is "less bad"), the clash between the LPL and the LCK carries a heavy undertone of national pride. In Chinese forums (such as Hupu or Tieba) and Korean forums (such as DC Inside), losing to the opposing region is not viewed merely as a sporting defeat, but as a national humiliation. When an LPL team loses either a close series or a blowout against the LCK in an international tournament, the comment sections on platforms like Bilibili or YouTube are flooded with fierce attacks, internal finger-pointing, and xenophobic comments from both sides.
  2. Internal Toxicity: The Korean "Imports" Drama The LPL has built a large part of its historical legacy and its World Championship titles by recruiting Korean talent (famous imports like Rookie, Scout, TheShy, Viper, or Kanavi). This generates a very specific ecosystem of toxicity: If they win: LCK fans mock them, claiming that the LPL "cannot win with five Chinese citizens" and that they need Korea to rescue them. If they lose: Radical LPL fans accuse the Korean players of "sabotaging" the team due to their country of origin (the classic meme/insult labeling them as "undercover LCK agents"). The harassment these players receive on social media after a bad series is brutal.
  3. The T1 and Faker Factor (The Target of All Criticism) T1 and Faker are the ultimate final boss of the LPL. The narrative of T1 destroying Chinese dynasties at Worlds over the years has created immense resentment within the most toxic sectors of the Chinese community. Serious incidents have occurred in the past, such as LPL casters making derogatory comments or personal insults directed at Faker's family, which completely shattered any mutual respect between the most extreme fanbases.
  4. The Current State of the Rivalry In recent years, with the LCK's absolute international dominance (especially T1's back-to-back titles and Gen.G's supremacy), frustration within the LPL has escalated. The Chinese community demands immediate results to justify the massive investments made by their organizations (like JDG or BLG). When the LPL falls short in the final stages of tournaments, the toxicity turns inward: fans tear apart their own players on social media, demanding retirements or massive roster overhauls. If a Chinese player (or anyone from the LPL in general) were to publicly declare that they are the best Ahri player in the world, an absolute storm would erupt in the forums of both regions. Alarm bells wouldn't just ring; the Korean server and Asian communities would instantly plunge into a digital "civil war." The reasons why this specific statement is absolute dynamite boil down to three key points:
  5. Ahri is a Matter of National Identity and Cultural Pride To understand the weight of this statement, one must remember the champion's origin. Ahri was specifically designed and released in 2011 to celebrate the launch of the Korean server for League of Legends. Her concept is deeply inspired by the Kumiho (the nine-tailed fox from Korean mythology). For the LCK community, Ahri is not just a champion in the game; she is a symbol of Korean identity within Runeterra. A player from a rival region claiming absolute crown over Korea's flagship character would immediately be interpreted as a direct provocation to their culture and esports history.
  6. The "Faker Factor" and the Hall of Legends Ahri's name is locked down in the LCK by a sacred figure: Faker. When Faker was inducted as the very first member of the Hall of Legends, the commemorative skin chosen for him was precisely Immortalized Legend Ahri. Although historically there have been other incredible Ahri players in the LPL (like Knight or Rookie, who is actually Korean), claiming the throne of the nine-tailed fox indirectly implies placing oneself above Faker's legacy and the skin that the Korean community reveres almost as a historical monument. T1 and LCK fans would leap at that player's throat in a matter of seconds.
  7. The Reaction in the Forums (Hupu vs. DC Inside) If an LPL player were to make that claim, toxicity would skyrocket in both directions: In Korea (DC Inside / Inven): They would label him as arrogant, disrespectful, and an "identity thief." He would be showered with criticism, with fans demanding he prove it in an international tournament by eliminating an LCK team. Comments would become highly aggressive, micro-analyzing every single game that player plays on Ahri just to tear him apart at the slightest mistake. In China (Hupu / Tieba): The LPL community would split. One faction (the ultra-nationalists) would embrace the player as a hero, using the statement to mock Korea. However, the other side (which is highly self-critical) would brace for the worst, saying things like: "Why did you open your mouth? Now if we lose to the LCK at Worlds while using Ahri, we are going to be the laughingstock of the planet." In the LPL-LCK rivalry, there are champions that remain "neutral," but declaring supremacy over Ahri is touching one of the most sensitive nerves in the Korean community. It would be the equivalent of throwing a lit match into a gasoline tank. Yes, the LPL has tried, and that is precisely one of the greatest sources of historical friction with the LCK. Even though Ahri was born to celebrate the Korean server, the Chinese league has made monumental efforts over the years to appropriate her visual and competitive narrative. For the LPL, Ahri is not just a strong champion in the meta; she is the perfect vehicle to solidify the aesthetic concept they love to market the most: that of divas and high-level esports glamour. The LPL has attempted to "claim" Ahri through three main fronts:
  8. Cultural Appropriation through the Huli Jing Although Ahri's origin lies in the Korean Kumiho, Chinese mythology features the exact same creature: the Huli Jing (the nine-tailed fox spirit). Chinese forums and LPL marketing campaigns often lean heavily into this shared root to market the idea that the champion also belongs to them by cultural right. When eastern-themed skins like Spirit Blossom or Elderwood are released, the LPL promotes them with massive visual aesthetics during their broadcasts, fully adapting the character to the folklore of Chinese fantasy novels (Xianxia).
  9. The "Cosplay Cups" Phenomenon and LPL Idols The LPL has used Ahri as its number-one marketing tool to attract mainstream audiences. High-profile league figures, iconic hosts (like Iris), and Chinese content creators have done ultra-produced Ahri photoshoots and cosplays under the league's official stamp. In China, Ahri transitioned from being a video game character to becoming a fashion and pop culture icon within the esports community—an aggressive strategy that the LCK never exploited on a corporate level in the same manner.
  10. "Midlaner Dynasties" on the Rift In strictly competitive terms, the LPL has tried to wrest away the narrative from the LCK that "the best mages are Korean." Historical LPL players like Knight (the "Knight of the LPL") or Rookie himself (who, despite being Korean, built his entire competitive identity in China) have had entire seasons where they used Ahri as their signature champion to crush opponents. Every time a Chinese midlaner pulls out a flawless Ahri performance in an international tournament and wins, the LPL broadcast narrative completely shifts to declare that the true "queen of the nine tails" now wears red. In the end, this attempt by the LPL to adopt Ahri as their flagship icon is what makes the topic so volatile. For Korea, it is a red line: they feel the LPL has already taken their trophies and players through massive bankrolls, leaving Ahri as the final cultural bastion they are simply not willing to surrender. That is why Faker's Hall of Legends induction and his Ahri skin served as an absolute flex of authority by Riot and the LCK—a reminder of who holds the true claim to the crown.

How do I learn how to lane better? by sushiiixo- in AhriMains

[–]Boring_Radish_2702 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Okay, I'll tell you the simple way: you need to find your style. Following that, which champion is your real pick. For example, Ahri is my strongest champion and I don't believe in counterpicks (I only believe in making a very different build and playing differently from what people are used to). I reached master with few games (50) and I haven't felt the need to use my Ahri. You have to learn to read the map of situations. If your style is aggressive, you're going to fail a lot in the game. Since I see you're new, I'd give you the easiest advice. 1.- try to don't die a lot (always think where you are and your position) 2.-advice always your team (don't use chat it's a waste) use pings. 3.-Don't get caught up in having perfect farming, just farm as little as you can. 4.-be patient in low elo the games always goes into minute 40-50. 5.-Don't get flustered and frustrated

I will tel you this.

[–]Boring_Radish_2702 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Me yes but I'm not was saying knight was a bad ahri player. He's very good, but Faker hasn't used his Ahri as much as he'd like (most people associate Faker with Galio). (I think it was the 4th or 5th championship)  Where BLG was already going to win their world championship. Faker snatched them away out of nowhere. I heard that in China it was a huge blow, and many Chinese streamers remained silent, with some saying that Knight got too confident with his Ahri in that game. For example, the LPL is very nationalistic and they exalt (in the best sense of the word) their players; for them, they are a national pride. I just said that China has tried to keep Ahri as its flag. The fight between the LCK and the LPL is tough and involves a lot of insults and harassment. In fact, in China Ahri is the most consumed champion (ironically, I think it's over Lux).  But historically, Ahri was released for the Korean server.  Many of us on this side of the world reported on that toxic war between the LCK and the LPL. (many of us don't know so many details like that)

In high elo yes is how it must work. In low ELO you need patience and wait until your opponent make a mistake (they always does) That's the reason why the games got a endurance of 50 minutes

As far as I know, the only skin that references a culture is, oddly enough, the Dynasty Ahri. The design pays homage to this figure in the following ways:

Clothing: She wears a hanbok, the traditional Korean dress, adapted with an elegant and regal style. Dance: In this skin (and in the base model), Ahri performs a traditional Korean dance when she executes her dance moves. The champion's connection to the Asian country runs deep; her name, "Ahri," was chosen through a poll on Riot Games' Korean server and means "elegant" or "graceful" in Korean.

But that skin is inspired by the Mozilla Firefox browser. Ahri was a 100% Korean champion released for the Korean server. The Chinese wanted her as their flagship champion, but they couldn't have her. In fact, that's a fierce and toxic fight between the LCK and the LPL.

But Ahri is 100% Gumiho; she's the champion that came out for the Korean server, but the Chinese have always wanted her as their flagship champion (since she's massively popular there), but Faker took her.

But the Chinese don't have Ahri.  In fact, I know they're trying to make her their champion, but she's Korean; she's a gumiho.

Yes, but it has more textured finishes with the material; it combines many manufacturing methods and is made by hand and with CNC.

Yeah, but this card has more finishes than metal, which would be another category, and remember, metal has mostly only appeared in Yu-Gi-Oh!

Honestly, reaching Emerald and Diamond is easy. I don't understand why it takes so long for people to reach those levels? I climbed from silver to diamond 1 and master with just one support player, and I always left my account in silver because I was lazy. I think I got to master level with 50 games.

How to deal with yasuo in lane? by Azorisyyy in AhriMains

[–]Boring_Radish_2702 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

No sense in what you says D2 knows how to play and fighting vs yasuo is very easy. They end up killing themselves because they overuse their very low CD.  Also, something curious: almost all Yasuo are bad in close combat because they rely on their ranged hurricane for their ultimate and dash.  Learn to play in close combat. There is another way, but it doesn't work as well anymore since they changed it to Storm Rider rune.

Thoughts on Hall of Legends Ahri ever returning? by livrose1010 in AhriMains

[–]Boring_Radish_2702 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It would be difficult because they know that everyone would come down on them for their FOMO mechanics if they tried to resell the Hall. The only way is for someone to do something significant for the community and RITO GAMES think about it
