Karthus, the Deathsinger, may be undead, but he still knows how to be stylish with his skins. Karthus is a character with a unique personality that allows room for many different types of skins. Let this skin review help your decision on what to bring to battle when you play Karthus.
1. Phantom Karthus
Phantom Karthus displays Karthus as a lich or a battle mage. His outfit consists of him covered in armor, and he wears a tattered black robe that helps the lich theme. While the skin doesn’t present itself with much originality, it’s rather appealing for its visuals and its low price. This skin will be loved by fans of Karthus that are looking for a simple look at a low price.
Pros
- Moderate Model Changes
Cons
- No new particles
- No new animations
- No new sounds
The price of this skin is 460 RP.

2. Statue of Karthus
While the skin has a unique concept, the Statue of Karthus does fail to appeal. The theme is unique in that it gives a lich a Statue of Liberty look, which can be seen as a little whimsical. Considering it’s an American symbol, it’s bound to not appeal to everyone worldwide. The look is an interesting take on Karthus; it can be adored by fans in America or that simply love the look.
Pros
- Moderate Model Changes
- New sounds
Cons
- No new particles
- No new animations
The price of this skin is 520 RP.
3. Grim Reaper Karthus
We can’t have a lich without presenting himself as the grim reaper. It’s a fitting skin for his personality and characteristics; the execution is nicely done with realizing the theme of the Angel of Death. The model accomplishes the concept’s appearance, which is nothing more unique than what you normally see with a Grim Reaper. Grim Reaper Karthus doesn’t go above and beyond, and that’s okay, as the skin already is appealing. Lovers of the look and Karthus will find this skin perfect for them.
Pros
- Moderate Model Changes
Cons
- No new particles
- No new animations
- No new sounds
The price of this skin is 975 RP.

4. Pentakill Karthus
Pentakill Karthus displays him as a heavy metal singer, which is another skin that suits his personality. His outfit is attractive and elegant; he wields a staff that is now a microphone. Pentakill Is a skin that is always entertaining and a nice tribute to heavy metal fans that many will appreciate. While the skin isn’t too unique of a concept, it’s still charming.
Pros
- Moderate Model Changes
- New sounds
Cons
- No new particles
- No new animations
The price of this skin is 750 RP.
5. Fnatic Karthus
Fnatic Karthus gives him a colorful look like a warlock in what seems to be a modern look. The skin is elaborate and somewhat unique. The modern aspect feels a bit lacking, and the skin is all about your preference. Fnatic Karthus is a decent option if you enjoy a new modern look for him; other than that, it doesn’t present itself with many features.
Pros
- Major Model Changes
Cons
- No new particles

6. Karthus Lightsbane
Karthus Lightsbane gives him another warlock look; it’s a different interpretation for Karthus. Rather than looking dead, he looks alive, giving away his lich persona. The white hair contrasts nicely with the clothes, with a gothic look for any outfit. Robes are decorated, shoulders add a nice touch, and the staff gets a new look. Everything is rather different than the classic Karthus. Particles represent runic patterns, and the sounds give an eerie, haunting sound. The sounds match the theme quite nicely. Karthus Lightsbane isn’t that extraordinary, but the idea is different and unique. His fans will find the skin to be appealing for battle.
Pros
- New Model
- New particles
- New animation
- New sounds
Cons
- The skin is unique, so there isn’t much of a con to it
The price of this skin is 975 RP.
