Hello everyone, I'm Game Xiaodi.

The last time Honor of Kings released a new Glory Collection skin was at the beginning of this year. Actually, in the past, they used to release one approximately every half year. Although no new skins have been released for a long time, players' enthusiasm for Glory Collection skins remains undiminished. Questions like "What to exchange for the first Glory Crystal?" never fade away. In fact, the in-game recommendation ranking for Collection skins has already provided the answer. This ranking is based on real exchange data from players recently, essentially votes cast with real Glory Crystals, so it's clear what to exchange for.

Top Ten Exchange List

First, the number one: Lü Bu - Thousand Nightmare Return to the Abyss, the 19th Glory Collection skin in Honor of Kings, belonging to the Hundred Phases Guard Dream series, with two sets of randomly triggered effects for his ultimate. Second is Angela - Reversed Fairy Tale · Magic Mirror, the story of Snow White is completely flipped, which is highly creative. Third is Garo - The First Symphony, with a creation symphony theme, and the cello in her hand is transformed from a unicorn, visually very gorgeous.

Fourth is Xiao Qiao - Swan Dream, one of the earliest Glory Collection skins, which later received a major optimization. Fifth is Yao - Time Image, with a film reel theme, triggering two sets of dreamy effects (blue and purple) randomly when attached to a teammate. Sixth is Yu Ji - Divine Revelation, whose weapon is changed from a bow to a sword, with two forms: Redemption and Divine Punishment. Seventh is Kai - Silver Aria, a medieval knight fused with a demon, with three forms: normal, knight, and demon. Eighth is Guan Yu - Red Shadow Speed Blade, a design with a motorcycle, flames, and helmet, very much abandoning the anchor point. Ninth is Li Bai - Sword Howl · Shadow, whose skill effects change in real time based on the items equipped. Tenth is Han Xin - Spear Shadow Hunter, whose spear turns gold when he gets the blue buff.

Highlights Analysis

All the top three are new skins; the trend is to exchange for the newer rather than the older. This ranking shows a very obvious trend: the first and second places are new skins that were released in 2026, and the third was released in 2025, so they are all new skins. The newer the skin, the higher its ranking. The reason is easy to understand: when new Collection skins are released, their effects and models are made to the latest standards. Players who are used to old skins will be immediately attracted by the new ones, and that freshness is genuine.

Junglers are the most, supports are the least. Among the ten skins on the list, four are for junglers: Li Bai, Han Xin, and Kai are all junglers. Mid laners and marksmen each have two: Angela, Xiao Qiao, Garo, and Yu Ji. The least is support, with only Yao - Time Image on the entire list. This is because supports are relatively less popular, with only a few heroes being viable, mostly soft supports. The only support with a Collection skin is Yao, making it unique, but its presence on the list also shows its popularity.

If you also want to exchange your first Crystal for a Collection skin but can't decide, following the top few on this list is basically a safe bet, after all, it's the votes of countless players with real money. So the question is, which one does everyone plan to exchange for their first Glory Crystal?
