Key points
  1. Uzi’s new Risen Legend Vayne skin can avoid knock-ups by emoting. 
  2. The bug appears like a coding error, and will be hotfixed from the game very soon.
  3. Risen Legend Kai’Sa does not share this feature. 

Riot Games accidentally made Uzi’s commemorative Risen Legend Vayne skin pay to win – the cosmetic reportedly avoids knock-ups when emoting with control+5. The emote displays Uzi’s victory cry within the game and counteracts all knock-ups in the game. The emote is locked behind the most expensive bundle, which costs roughly $430. 

According to Vandiril on YouTube, the creator who discovered the bug, Risen Legend Kai’Sa does not share the same feature; only Vayne is broken. The bug is expected to be fixed as soon as possible. 

The Risen Legend bundle is Riot’s commemoration of Jina “Uzi” Zihao, who is known as one of the best mechanical ADC players in the history of League of Legends. Here are all the bundles available:
