    4 of the Best Judge Skins in Valorant

    You know what they say: “Don’t Judge a book by its cover.” The saying holds true for this shotgun in Valorant. Among less worthy shotguns in the game, this one is worth buying in almost every round. Judge is an excellent shotgun with a lot of shells to utilize. Despite this, the lack of skins makes it feel as though the developers forgot Judge’s existence!

    There aren’t many top-notch skins for this gun. This makes it difficult for any shotgun player to choose a Judge skin. If that sounds like you, your search is over!  Here, we have a list of the best Judge Skins Valorant has ever made. So, stick with us till the end to find out who is the top contender and the worst contender for Judge skin.

    Brief Judge Shotgun Overview

    Judge is one of a kind automatic shotgun that dominates the enemies in close-range combat. It doesn’t matter whether there is one, two, or even a team of enemies in close combat,–the Judge shotgun can destroy them all. 

    It might sound too overpowered, but Judge is not for button-mashers. Like other top-notch guns, with Judge, you have to control the spray of bullets by crouching or staying still. Being a shotgun, the Judge is nearly useless at long range, but you can damage the enemies a bit by virtue of having no distance cap.

    At medium- to close-range, Judge is worth the Valorant Points.

    Now you know why you should take this lady to the ball. But what will she wear? Let’s get started with our list of best Judge skins Valorant has to offer, saving the best for last.

    The Best Valorant Judge Skins You can Purchase Today

    4. SMITE – Honorable Mention for the Greatest Judge Skin In Valorant

    lightning weapon skin for Valorant players to love

    SMITE Skin Bundle resulted from Valorant developers collaborating with Hi-Rez, the makers of SMITE. Riot Games is known to collaborate with Hi-Rez quite often, and their synergy always sparks something unique! 

    This skin has a flashy theme with a lightning flash on the side. Players will see a blue ombre that deepens from the muzzle to the stock. Lightning slashes through the serene blue backdrop to give the gun an electrifying flair. 

    Some even argue that SMITE is the best Judge skin to fall upon the Valorant community, but how can you compare it with the Elderflame and Glitchpop Judge skins? It is a matter of personal preference, but our hearts belong to the dragon.

    Valorant skins are known to be expensive, but SMITE here saves you from having an empty wallet. This skin is an excellent choice if you are not ready to spend above 2k Valorant points for something with upgradability.

    You can get SMITE Judge skin for around 875 Valorant points. What more do you need?

    3. Celestial Judge

    Now that we are over with our upgradeable options for Judge skin, let’s move on to the celestial skin that is the top choice of non-upgradable skins in our list of best Judge skins Valorant ranked. 

    From the name itself, you might feel that it is a heavenly skin with stars flying around, mountains with a shining sun in between, moving clouds, beautiful scenery, and a festive theme. You are right, but not entirely because Valorant developers put all that into a live wallpaper and then stuck it on Judge. There is hardly any change on the Judge itself; instead, there is a live wallpaper on top.

    Besides all this, the look of this Celestial Judge Skin is phenomenal, as it somehow soothes the soul. Being a non-upgradable skin, you have no variants and upgrade options—just a plain skin with live wallpaper on top.

    One more thing to point out is its quality. The price of skin depends on its quality more than its features. Celestial has one of the best qualities in Valorant; you can see every detail in the skin crystal clear.

    You can get the Celestial Judge Skin for around 1775 Valorant points.

    2. Glitchpop – The Runner-Up to the Best Judge Skin in Valorant

    The Glitchpop Bundle took the Valorant community by storm. It breathed new life into the Judge skin collection because there weren’t many upgradable options preceding it. The Glitchpop Judge Skin provides a groovy vibe, colorful eye-candy, and a physical advantage. Even pros have to use the Glitchpop Judge Skin to enhance their aim.

    Visually, the Glitchpop Judge Skin is very distinctive, with funky and colorful hues. The stickers on the side are reminiscent of the patches and enamel pins that came into fashion in the ’70s and have been resurfacing ever since. On top of this, trippy glitch effects appear with every action the player takes. How meta!

    If the cyan/magenta color combination from the default Glitchpop Skin isn’t for you, there are three other variants. The first one is blue with a pattern change from stickers to vertical lines. The second variant has a red undercoat with a touch of other colors and a unique pattern. Finally, there is a blinged-out gold variant that is our personal favorite!

    As for upgrades, THe Glitchpop Bundle comes with everything possible in Valorant, ranging from VFX, SFX, GFX, effects, animations, and a beautiful finisher. 

    Did we forget to mention the Glitchpop sound at the start? If it weren’t for the Elderflame Judge Skin (spoiler alert), Glitchpop would top our list for that charming glitch-popping sound alone. 

    Finally, when the finisher activates, the developers flex their creative muscles. In one version, a funky, colorful hologram of the victim’s body appears like a ghost. In another version, an iconic rainbow unicorn appears in the sky. Sounds trippy?  You have to use the skin to understand the Glitchpop experience.

    You can get the Glitchpop Judge Skin for around 2175 Valorant points.

    1. Elderflame Judge – The Best Valorant Judge Skin

    dragon appearance for shotgun in Valorant

    Perhaps the developers were aiming for quality over quantity. The Judge may not have many upgradeable skins, but it sure has the most memorable: Elderflame. It is no surprise that the Elderflame Judge Skin takes the number one spot in our list of best Judge Skins Valorant has released. 

    Physically, this skin is a living dragon. It has a face, a tail, scales, and even reptilian flaps on the dorsal side. The Elderflame shines brighter than any other skin in the game because of its realism and rarity. If you own an Elderflame Judge, you can strut like a boss into your match.

    Other guns can wear the Elderflame Skin, but Elderflame Judge stands out amongst the best. It’s almost as good as the best Valorant Vandal skin from the Elderflame set. The Judge dragon is girthier,  giving you more to admire. An added feature,  a half-molten boulder, acts as the shotgun’s magazine. 

    Being the most expensive skin in Valorant, the Elderflame Judge Skin lives up to its price tag with many variants and upgrade options.

    Variations and Upgrades to the Best Valorant Judge Skin

    There are a total of four variants, starting with the earth-tone one, which is the default. The second one is a red variant; the third one is a blue variant. Finally, there is a dark black variant with wintry light emanating from within. All of these are exceptional, and no one can definitively argue that one variant is better than another.

    As for upgrades, this skin has VFX, SFX, animations, and a finisher. When you fire Judge in its Elderflame form, the face of the dragon moves, opening its mouth and spitting fire. The fire is a flashy stand-in for the pellets of a shotgun blast.

    The reload animation is also different with Elderflame Judge Skin, since the player has to interact with the stone clutched in the dragon’s foot.

     When the finisher activates, an Elder Dragon Fire appears over the victim, burning the victim to death. What more could one wish for in an automatic shotgun?

    You can get the Elderflame Judge skin for around 2475 Valorant points.

    Final Verdict

    Judge is arguably the best shotgun in Valorant. It’s effortless to use for beginners, and it can also be used in competitive matches. Surely, it’s not meme material like Bucky. The only drawback to this automatic shotgun is that the Valorant developers stopped including it in their latest upgradable skins.

    We made a list of the best Judge skins Valorant has to offer, and we join players in wishing for more! Our list includes two upgradable options and two non-upgradable options for people to choose from, according to their budget.

    What do you think of our selection for the highest-rated Valorant Judge skins? Do you have any other favorite Valorant weapon skins? Feel free to let us know what you prefer in the comment section below. We love to hear from our readers!
