If you follow Lee "Faker” Sang-hyeok’s streams or watch his tournament matches, you might have noticed that he almost never uses skins in League of Legends. Even when Riot released a special skin of him worth over $500 to mark his induction into the Hall of Fame, Faker simply "didn't even think about using it" in his matches.

He explained once in interview that when he started playing, he was a kid who had to go out and buy prepaid cards to get Riot Points, so he often just played without skins. Even now, with all skins unlocked on his partner account, he sticks to the default look. Faker trains with his team using no skins to avoid any distractions from skins that change animations or colors.
