LoL: How does global skin revenue work?
X/Twitter user Kevin Kim shared some information on this topic.
How Worlds skin revenue is distributed:
“(Share) 25% of revenue earned from skin sales in the launch year of each set of Team Championship skins directly with the players who inspired them, their team and their league (because it takes a village to make a champion). » pic.twitter.com/FSF5rzuG1U

25% of revenue generated from skin sales during the launch year of each set of Team Championship skins is donated to the players who inspired them. Plus, the money goes to the entire team and the entire league.
Riot started doing this in 2017, but also paid the teams that won Season 6. There’s no information on how much money players make after this initial release year ends, but we assume that it is 0.
Kevin Kim bases his information on a Riot Games article from 7 years ago which should still be accurate. He talks about LoL Esports as a whole and its future. This provides valuable insight into how Riot has planned to shape esports in the past.
Recently, T1 won the world championship and only some of their players confirmed their chosen skin. What would you like to see?
