Edward Gaming (EDG) lifted the League of Legends Worlds 2021 trophy back in November. Since then, there have been a lot of rumors stating that the champions will pick for the winner exclusive skin bundle.
It seems, though, that EDG's star ADC Viper has apparently picked Aphelios as his champion of choice for the exclusive skin. While this is entirely a rumor, Viper picking this champion is not at all surprising.

Viper's Aphelios was instrumental towards EDG winning the League of Legends Worlds 2021 trophy. Apart from that, it is also one of his favorite champions, featuring some of the highest winrates amongst all.
Has information regarding the skin choices of Viper and others within EDG apparently been leaked?
The League of Legends World Championship skins featuring the name of the winning team and the players is quite an honor. These skins ensure that even in the future, everyone will remember the winners of a particular year.
As per custom, the winners of every League of Legends World Championship are asked to pick five champions for those featured skins.
It seems that EDG's players, including Viper, Scout, Jiejie, Meiko and Flandre have apparently decided on the champion skins they want. Alongside Viper's Aphelios, Jiejie has picked Viego, Scout has picked Zoe, Flandre has picked Graves and Meiko has picked Lulu.
While many might feel that Jiejie should have picked Jarvan IV, it is important to remember that he has 100% win rate on Viego in both the LPL summer playoffs as well as Worlds 2021.
Are the rumors justified?
The information regarding the skin choices was apparently leaked within the Chinese community. However, neither EDG nor Riot Games have provided any confirmation on them.
It is important to realize that despite the rumors, the LPL community feels these are true. This is because Viper, who was formerly part of Griffin Esports, revealed that he would choose Aphelios in a live broadcast with a former Griffin Esports' coach.
As for Flandre, he is a big fan of Graves. He played 11 games with Graves at League of Legends Worlds 2021 and had a 72.7% win rate. Thus, this rumor also seems justified.
Meiko, during his interview right after League of Legends Worlds 2021, made it clear that his choice of skin will boil down to Yuumi and Lulu.
Finally, Scout clarified after the finals that he will choose a champion he actively used to win. Therefore, Zoe seems like a plausible choice for him, as it was the champion monumental in their victory
