Past Kombat League Skins
Hey guys, so as we all know, MK11 has had quite a few Kombat leagues in the past, and with those seasons came exclusive skins. It is a shame that some of these skins were locked behind a season during a time I didn’t have the game, especially seeing as some skins I currently want from those seasons were very easy to obtain by simply getting champion rank (which isn’t hard let’s be honest, you literally don’t even lose KL points for losing sets), or even simply getting apprentice rank which you can get by losing one set the entire season, or by simply playing KL for 10 days (again not hard you don’t even have to win). The reason I emphasis the fact you didn’t even have to win to get these skins is because too often I’ve found the argument that we shouldn’t have these skins return because “they took a lot of effort and skill to earn”, which in my opinion (and a lot of other peoples opinion’s) is bollocks, with the great exception of the KL skins you obtain by getting Demi god (that we can all agree takes great skill and effort, since you can lose a hefty amount of points for losing sets). I think these skins should become unlockable later down the line of MK11’s life cycle. I personally think they should just be given for free without the need to grind (with the exception of the Demi god skins of course), however, to meet the opposition halfway, what if the old Kombat League skins were unlockable in the following seasons via the same methods? What if we could unlock the Season of Time Raiden skin by reaching champion rank in the season of the kytinn? Or we can unlock the season of chaos Cassie cage skin by reaching Demi god in the season of lawlessness? I reckon that’s a fair way to give people who purchased the game later a chance to unlock these skins because some of them are really sick. What do you guys think?

I like your idea tbh. I feel that at some point they might repeat seasons tho, if they do it will probably be a long time before it happens. I remember also seeing someone suggest something like being able to like trade skins if you’ve obtained that rank already, like say for instance you have a skin that you earned by hitting champion last season, then you could trade it in for a champion skin from a previous season or a future season. I think that would be cool. I’ve had the game since launch but I didn’t get really into it until this year so I missed out on like two skins that I really want lmao.
The trade idea isn’t a bad one but still leaves people missing out on a tonne of potential skins, especially for those who bought the game via the aftermath pack over a year after the games initial release. I wouldn’t mind repeating seasons either if it didn’t mean having to wait even longer to unlock those skins (at least 3-4 months since three more confirmed seasons on the way), and even then, it would take forever for a specific season someone wants skins for to finally repeat. I may be showing some bias here so forgive me, but I do genuinely believe my idea can work easily and be accepted by all. Hell it can even apply to the season specific brutalities.
