league-of-legends
My friends and I are started getting into League of Legends. I am enjoying myself enough that I'm considering unlocking a Champion or two.
However, I noticed that some Champions are available online for dirt cheap, with prices such as Liking a Facebook page or Subscribing to a YouTube channel. I would feel like a complete idiot if I purchased one of the Champions that is available for so little expense.
What Champions can I get for cheap, and how?
The recommended champions are the same for every one, regardless of level. They do not change to reflect any of your stats. The champions chosen as 'recommended' are those whose skills are more straight forward than others.
Annie for instance is a burst mage with no utility (besides her passive). Warrwick's auto attacks give him life, as well as one of his spells making him the safest jungler.
In general there is no easy to kill champions in the recommended tab that don't have some sort of escape, excluding maybe Sona or Soraka who are support characters.
Skins are diffident looks for you champion, some are given out as promotion or reward from events but most of them are bought with Riot points (the points you need to spend real money on to get). There are two skins that are unlocked from the referrals program and if you reach 5000 referrals you permanently unlock all skins that re not exclusive award from tournaments.
For the most part it is just a cosmetic thing but there is atleast 1 exception, any skin that has sunglasses takes reduced damage(1 less damage) from Leona's Sunlight ability, this is one of the hidden passives in the game.
The free promotional skins that I know of is:
Unchained Alistar from Youtube promotion
Riot girl Tristana from Facebook promotion

Riot technically doesn't offer any champion for free.
What they do offer is skins for certain champions -- and if you don't have the champion when you get a skin for it, you get the champion for free.
That said, there are only three:
