Doran’s pick highlights some of his best plays and those key engagements he made in game 1 of the grand finals, which helped snowball the game toward the T1 side. From simply way too much high mobility nonsense to the jaw dropping bave plays, Ambessa was Doran incarnate.
How those colours will be expressed is still a mystery, with no official visuals from Riot (though leaks from his former teammates’ streams suggest black and gold or black and white schemes, replacing Ambessa’s fiery red with T1’s signature pizzazz).
🐿️ Since it’s a T1 skin, I thought it would be better to pick a champion with a symbolic meaning for T1, and the one that first made T1 Doran known is probably Ambessa. Gragas is also a signature champion, but T1 Doran’s is definitely Ambessa.#Doran

Fans are speculating about what they’d like to see most a sassy little Krugs Easter egg in her recall or in her death animation is the frontrunner. It’s a reference to Doran’s hilarious mid clear performance earlier this year, which generated countless memes and a push for more humour from Riot.
The Skin Creation Breakdown
Worlds skins are a team thing, starting roster picks champs they rolled at event, then collab with riot on themes voice lines personal touches Look for chromas, wards, icons (eventually), and poss emotes in late spring to pre summer 2025. For previous T1s, there have been trophies, stage vibes and player Easter eggs.
