Legends of Runeterra adding champion skins
Riot Games has announced that Champion skins are making their way to Legends of Runeterra in patch 2.8, fulfilling one of players’ most popular requests.
“Champion skins are a new way to personalize your favorite decks,” Riot Games says. “Equipping a champion with a skin will alter the art for all copies of each of that champion’s levels, as well as their accompanying flavor text.”
“Some skins can even change the appearance of a champion’s summoned units, and can even grant entirely new level-up animations. Each skin’s effects are listed out on their Store page, so players can see exactly what they’ll change before making a purchase,” the company adds.
