Coin Emperor Tahm Kench, Firecracker Sejuani and Firecracker Vayne
Lunar Revel 2019

The Emperor wanted a great celebration for the New Year and the parade was to be the centre of it. With fireworks and a large procession it garnered a lot of attention, in this world and beyond. A wraith set its sights on the coins and gold of treasury and regalia. Was it simple greed which motivated the spectre or was there a desire to ruin the empire? Whatever the reason he didn’t have an easy time.

A monster hunter was enjoying the celebration and, watching the parade, noticed strange, supernatural energies swirl by. With the help of purifying magic and a few well executed explosives coming from the experts in the parade the wraith was deterred to the happiness of all, especially the Emperor. Would the wraith return from whatever strange lands it lurked? No one could know for sure but that the celebration was going to continue in full, there was no doubt.

Sylas, the Unshackled
Sylas, the Unshackled

They imprisoned him, chained, they thought he was powerless and no longer a threat. Time passed and with each day of complacency the chains stopped being a shackle and slowly became a weapon. So, it became a matter of when he would escape. What tied him now ties his enemies and whatever power they had it is now his to command. Their biggest strengths are they greatest weaknesses.

Winter Wonderland Neeko, Winter Wonder Soraka, Snow Man Yi, Frozen Prince Mundo and Ice King Twitch
Snowdown Showdown 2018

The Chameleon arrived at the snowy lands and seeing all in white and blue changed her look without further ado. Of the people she met much she learnt and eagerly talked about the faraway lands she left. An Ice Sorceress liked her stories and went with her everywhere with no worries. They met a Prince with a curse unleashed who caused a blizzard whenever he pleased. They also found a Snow Man with a carrot sword searching for a challenge he couldn’t ignore.

A Rat King was freezing the people, blaming everyone for being little. They dashed and slashed and the Rat King was asked? “Why do you freeze as easy as you sneeze?” “If no friend they want to be, a statue everyone will see.” And so a new friend joined the band, who cheese liked a lot, and together in a trot, went to discover more of this magical land.

Neeko, the Curious Chamaleon
Neeko, the Curious Chamaleon

Everybody knows who she is: she’s who you are looking at. How that person looks is entirely another matter. You see, it’s not enough for Neeko to camouflage herself in different clothes and environments she also likes to take on the appearance of her allies. So that must be an ally, right? Because she’s on your side. You wouldn’t be fighting a doppelganger of an ally which Neeko is also impersonating. That would be confusing and dangerous. Better to take a look at Neeko’s many guises. That ought to be less confusing, let’s hope.

Bewitching Janna, Count Kledula and Trick or Treat Ekko
Tales from the Rift 2018

A witch scours the night sky searching for a special ingredient for her latest concoction. Not any ingredient will do, her cauldron can be rather picky and if the mix isn’t right the result will have a sour taste. The old Count doesn’t have it. He isn’t going to share anyway: the old cantankerous coot doesn’t like visitors. The kids trick-or-treating their way won’t be of any help either. They can’t see beyond sweets and mischief; at all times not just now, actually. Where to find it? Perhaps going for some good old classic ingredients would do. Nothing like a good, old scare after all.

Samsung Galaxy Season 7 Skins
Samsung Galaxy Season 7 Skins

Blue, traditional clothes. Blue, misty magic. Blue, wavy patterns. Samsung Galaxy are the champions of Season 7 and their skins subtly or not so subtly reflect that. The theme is interesting even if it doesn’t seem to have much depth. Do the executions realise skins that impress with new identities and interpretations of the champions? That’s what we’ll shortly find out. Let’s take a look.

Pyke, the Bloodharbor Ripper
Pyke, the Bloodharbor Ripper

They thought him dead. They let him fall into the depths, be embraced by the darkness and be swallowed by a horror no one could survive; but he did. He came back and he’s got a list. He has written the names of all those that betrayed him and he’s already crossing them out. If you walk down a dank alley at night remember where your loyalties lay; for if they ever shifted he may find you, familiar.

Ambitious Elf Jinx, Snow Fawn Poppy and Santa Draven
Snowdown Showdown 2017

An elf was waiting, eagerly, impatiently for the arrival of the gifts. The young deer toiled with the sled trying to make the delivery on time. The clock was ticking, impervious to the nervous haste, bringing the hour closer. The elf paced and jumped all around the place, the deer pulled with all possible strength. The bell tolled, the elf looked out the window and the sled was there with a very tired but satisfied deer in front. The elf rushed in a toy train to the sled and started loading the gifts and the deer in the wagons. In the house, under the large tree, they were all placed in their respective places; except the deer. The elf accelerated and, with exhausted deer resting in a wagon, exited the house and approached the sled. It was time to move on to the next house.
