In recent years, cosmetics have become a crucial aspect of Riot Games, not only in League of Legends but also in other Riot Games’ titles like VALORANT, Wild Rift, Legends of Runeterra.

To cater to the individual player bases of these games, Riot introduced exclusive skins that were only available within a specific game. While this pleased players, it didn’t sit well with those who played other Riot titles, particularly within the League of Legends universe.

Star Guardian Wild Rift x LoL

Players noted the thematic similarities between League of Legends, Legends of Runeterra, and Wild Rift, leading them to question why certain games had exclusive skins. Riot has since begun the process of porting some Wild Rift skins into League of Legends, such as some of the Star Guardian skins.

In response to the discussion, Matt Buchholtz, Riot’s Lead of Legends of Runeterra, clarified that skins are not locked exclusively to one game.

He explained that different teams at Riot create exclusive skins for their respective IPs, which means these skins may not appear in all games simultaneously. However, some skin lines, like Star Guardian and Soul Fighter, are shared across multiple games.

Buchholtz encouraged players to voice their preferences and requests regarding skins in their favorite Riot games’ titles. Riot is open to considering players’ feedback, although he emphasized that requests should be made respectfully and constructively.

Riot has a history of taking player feedback into account, as long as it’s conveyed in a constructive manner. He also provided information on where players can share their feedback.

In summary, this development is welcome news for players who wish to see their favorite skins appear in other Riot Games’ title. Players are encouraged to communicate their preferences, and Riot will internally discuss these requests.

The past year has shown that Riot is willing to listen to players’ feedback when it’s expressed in a different manner.

Full Soul Fighter Event Revealed features Game mode, skins for LoL, WR, TFT, LoR, and more https://notagamer.net/soul-fighter-event-revealed-game-mode-skins/ https://notagamer.net/soul-fighter-event-revealed-game-mode-skins/#respond Mon, 26 Jun 2023 17:38:36 +0000 https://notagamer.net/?p=62219 Soul Fighter will be added to League of Legends, Wild Rift, Legends of Runeterra, and Teamfight Tactics with huge batch of content. Here’s everything you need to know about the event.

Riot Games has released a hype event teaser for League of Legends, Teamfight Tactics, Legends of Runeterra, and Wild Rift on June 26. Soul Fighter is one of Riot Games’ most significant events to date. It incorporates skins, game modes, and features from several games.

Taking influence from anime tournament arcs and paying regard to the fighting game genre, Soul Fighter is the 2023 Summer event which includes new game modes, skins, gameplay features, and more across all four Riot titles.

Soul Fighter game modes

Players will be plunged in a unique parallel dimension where champions gather to fight in the world’s most prestigious competition: the Tournament of Souls. In keeping with the fighting concept, Soul Fighter will add a new game mode to League of Legends: Arena. Arena games pit four teams of two players against each other in alternating combat rounds.

They will power up with unique Augments after each round until only one team remains. Combat takes place on four distinct battlefields, each with its own unique size, terrain density, and theme.

Also, for League of Legends players, the game client will also have a game called “the Tournament of Souls”. Players will be Samira and collect Reputation by participating in games, allowing them to face new opponents and unlock new skills for Samira to advance further in the tournament.

The tournament’s goal is to defeat all 10 opponent champions and become the tournament’s new champion. After each win, players may claim awards and unlock the Story and Expert difficulty levels, each with varying levels of complexity for players of various ability and time dedication.

Also, there are other modes like Soul Brawl, and Tag Duel for players to enjoy in TFT, and Wild Rift respectively. Legends of Runeterra players will be able to obtain a new event pass as well as new cosmetics for their decks.

Furthermore, until August 28, 20% of all revenues gained from Soul Fighter Samira, the Soul Fighter Event Pass, and any associated bundle sales in League will be given to the Riot Games Social Impact Fund.

The Soul Fighter event begins internationally on July 20th and will span six weeks, ending on August 28th.

The most badass Corrupted skins got released by Riot Games, but not for League of Legends https://notagamer.net/corrupted-skins-released-riot-league-of-legends/ https://notagamer.net/corrupted-skins-released-riot-league-of-legends/#respond Mon, 02 Jan 2023 18:30:00 +0000 https://notagamer.net/?p=57067 Legends or Runeterra might got the most cool-looking skins Riot has ever made with these new skins

Legends of Runeterra is a card game based on the League of Legends universe. As a result, both games have numerous parallels, particularly in terms of cosmetics.

Many skin lines are available in both League and LoR. Battle Academia, Spirit Blossom, Star Guardian, Arclight, and many more. Not only that, but Legends of Runeterra, as much as Wild Rift, has several exclusive and unique skin lines. The Corrupted skin line is the most recently released and probably the best skin line Riot has ever made.

Riot launched the first Darkin Saga expansion, Awakening, in August. They included new champions like as Kayn, Jax, Master Yi, Ornn, and the first-ever LoR exclusive champion, Norra, in this expansion. In addition, they included new Path Of Champions weekly missions. Riot also launched a new event, Corrupted 2022, which debuted the Corrupted skin line. 

Riot later confirmed in their Roadmap that a Corrupted 2.0 event will take place at the same time as the World Ender expansion. Even though Riot revealed this information about a month ago, which has been renamed Bloodwoven, players and fans are still astonished about the skin line.

Best skin line ever: Corrupted 2.0

League of Legends Xbox Game Pass partnership: Game pass, Free champions, limited rewards, and more https://notagamer.net/league-of-legends-xbox-game-pass-partnership/ https://notagamer.net/league-of-legends-xbox-game-pass-partnership/#respond Fri, 09 Dec 2022 08:51:06 +0000 https://notagamer.net/?p=56116 Riot Games’ co-founder revealed the League of Legends partnership with Xbox Game Pass during the Xbox and Bethesda Games event in June 2022

League of Legends Xbox Game Pass partnership: Game pass, Free champions, limited rewards, and more 16

Now, Riot Games and Xbox have officially partnered. League of Legends, Wild Rift, Legends of Runeterra, Teamfight Tactics, and VALORANT will be available on the rapidly expanding Game Pass service, as the company announced today.

The new cooperation between Xbox Game Pass and League of Legends is a huge deal. It will assist to increase the game’s popularity and encourage new players to check it out.

Information about the upcoming League of Legends and Xbox Game Pass cooperation

League of Legends and Xbox Game Pass will collaborate on December 12, 2022. As a result, all players with a Riot Games account and a current Game Pass subscription will get some special advantages. Furthermore, for a limited time, the creators are giving away a few of limited rewards for free.

For a limited time, players who link their Riot Games account to Xbox Game Pass will be able to get a Masterwork Chest and a Key. From December 8, 2022 until January 1, 2023, the awards will be accessible.

Players with an active Game Pass subscription and a Riot Games account will also be eligible for the following benefits:

  • All 160+ champions Unlocked from the start
  • Day-one access to every new champion as they’re released
  • 20% XP boost

League of Legends has never had a way for unlocking all champions other than grinding or spending money on each one. However, with the cooperation, players would receive everything right from the start.

It is reasonable to predict that the popularity of this game will soar in the next few days. Players that purchase the Game Pass of the game will be able to circumvent that system and utilize all of the champions whenever they want. It is crucial to note, however, that just the base champions will be available to gamers right now.

The collaboration’s advantages will be available as long as there is a current Xbox Game Pass membership. Riot Games and Xbox Game Pass will finally collaborate on December 12, 2022.

LilyPichu got to voice-acting as Master Yi’s follower https://notagamer.net/lilypichu-got-to-voice-acting-as-master-yis-follower/ https://notagamer.net/lilypichu-got-to-voice-acting-as-master-yis-follower/#respond Wed, 07 Sep 2022 14:17:09 +0000 https://notagamer.net/?p=50990 Lily “LilyPichu” Ki, a YouTuber and OfflineTV member, has been playing, streaming, and producing League of Legends material for more than ten years. She is currently recognized by Riot Games as a voice actress.

She revealed that she is the voice of Disciple of Doran in the League of Legends strategic card game, Legends of Runeterra, on her Twitter account as she celebrated this professional milestone.

Lily’s character appears in exclusive interactions for the Worldwalker expansion set, which was first made available on May 25, in the game’s patch 3.14.

LilyPichu – Disciple of Doran’s voice actor

LilyPichu essentially portrays a modest member of the Wuju Order who stands in support of people like Master Yi and her immediate boss, Doran. Master Yi requests Disciple of Doran to fix his distinctive helmet, which Doran initially created, in one of her voice lines and interactions.

In the Worldwalker deck, the common card Disciple of Doran depicts Lu, a devout disciple of Master Doran. Doran, the master of Yi as you would have guessed, is also the designer of some of League’s most well-known in-game equipment, like Doran’s Blade and Doran’s Ring.

LilyPichu got to voice-acting as Master Yi's follower 18

Both Lu and Master Yi engage in the Art of Wuju, which is based on the idea of achieving complete spiritual awareness of oneself and one’s foe, in Lord of the Rings.

Here you may hear Lily’s voice lines from Legends of Runeterra:

Lily began her career as a League of Legends content creator before moving on to become a well-known voice actress. She is well-known for her parody songs “I’ll Quit LoL” and “Do You Want To Give Me Blue Buff?” She cosplayed various of Lux’s skins, including Academia Lux, because she is such a huge fan.

Riot Games published a sweet doodle of her dressed as Star Guardian Lux in July to honor her ten years in the business.

In the open-world role-playing game Genshin Impact by HoYoverse, Sayu, a 4-star Anemo, is voiced by Lily. She also contributed to the anime films “Belle” and “Don’t Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro.”

Yuumi’s master Norra has finally been revealed https://notagamer.net/yuumis-master-norra-revealed/ https://notagamer.net/yuumis-master-norra-revealed/#respond Thu, 25 Aug 2022 17:07:02 +0000 https://notagamer.net/?p=50284 Since the champion’s release, the owner of the magical book and Yuumi’s existence has remained a mystery. We can finally learn more about Norra now

Yuumi has been a pain in everyone’s throat since Riot Games added Yuumi to League of Legends. After all, it’s a champion that can’t be targeted and gives her teammates healing and attack speed.

Her lore, on the other hand, is shrouded in mystery. She joined League of Legends after leaving Bandle City to search for her master, Norra, who had gone missing on an unknown quest.

Vex was ultimately launched onto League a year ago. Everyone assumed that this gloomy champion would be Norra, Yuumi’s owner, before her release. Fan theories abound, and we have Vex instead.

Now, it appears like Norra will finally make her debut in the universe of League of Legends.

She is a Yordle, as we suspected from Bandle City. She will not be joining League of Legends as a champion, unfortunately, but will instead be unique to Legends of Runeterra.

Yuumi's master Norra has finally been revealed 19

She is the second time Riot Games has taken an established League of Legends character and placed them in a branch of the game. The first instance occurred when Silco, a character from Arcane, was brought to Teamfight Tactics.

Forces from Beyond

Riot’s free-to-play card battler Legends of Runeterra features League of Legends characters with each new expansion.

Release date

The release of Forces from Beyond is scheduled for July 20 and, based on previous expansions, is expected to occur around 11 AM PT/7 PM GMT.

New Keywords

The powerful rulesets that define specific cards in the game have been expanded with new keywords with each expansion, and the Legends of Runeterra: Forces from Beyond expansion is no exception.

Evolve

Found on Kai’Sa, this keyword has the following description:

“I have +2 | +2 once you’ve given or summoned allies with 6+ other positive keywords this game.”

Hallowed

Gwen has this keyword, and it is described like this:

“After I die, for the rest of the game when allies attack, hallow your first attacker giving it +1/+0 that round.”

Riot is testing a new affiliate product: Purchase Star Guardian contents without logging in game clients https://notagamer.net/riot-testing-new-affiliate-product-star-guardian/ https://notagamer.net/riot-testing-new-affiliate-product-star-guardian/#respond Sun, 17 Jul 2022 19:37:43 +0000 https://notagamer.net/?p=47754 Beginning July 14, a new affiliate product featuring Star Guardian content will be tested

This month-long test will run in North America, Brazil, Italy, and Germany to select content creators and esports organizations within these regions

Other regions will be able to participate in the future.

The affiliate product will allow partners to promote (SG) contents on their platforms of choice via a new Collections Page.

Riot Games

They will share a unique link to their Collections Page where players can shop directly without having to open the game client, and a portion of that purchase will go directly to the partner.

Riot Games

Additional info

  • The product is still in development hence the small scale test. It will be launched more broadly once released.
  • Partners will receive 5-10% of the revenue depending on the SG content.
  • Tests will be run on a case by case basis, decided by Riot
  • No eligibility requirement
  • Partners that are involved must disclose that they’re participating in the test
  • Consumers will not receive a discount via affiliate URL, the % revenue will go directly to the partner.
  • Each partner will need to make at least $20 to receive a payout.

Riot Games

Overall it’s a nice way to support content creators and market the new Star Guardian skinline. In the future this might become the main way to purchase all Riot contents, given its convenience of not having to open the game clients, although the recent RP price hike might discourage some from making any purchases if at all.

The test runs from July 14 to August 9.

The Star Guardian skin line is one of the most popular in League of Legends, with Star Guardian versions on over 20 champions on the game’s roster.

And Riot Games intends to grow the skin line even more, making it their skin line with the most champions represented.

This year, League of Legends will introduce 12 new skins to the Star Guardian roster. The skin line event will also start on July 14, which is today.

Not only are we receiving completely fresh Star Guardian skins in League of Legends, but Wild Rift will also be getting some exclusive skins. We can only hope and pray that these special skins will be made available for the PC game one day, because they are stunning and would be ideal for League of Legends, not just Wild Rift.

Here are the splash arts for all of the upcoming Star Guardian skins coming to Riot Games’ titles.
