Legends of Runeterra’s next update, Patch 2.12.0, is adding its second champion expansion featuring Akshan and Viego. In addition to the 23 new cards, there’s a Sentinels of Light event, which adds skins that cross over with League of Legends’ newest content.
LoR’s upcoming seasonal event will have a dedicated event pass but with an added twist from the usual formula. When logging in, players are prompted to pick a side with either Viego’s Ruination or the Sentinels of Light. Your selection will determine which order you’ll receive the cosmetics in and a meta non-canon event will decide which faction wins.
Much like the Zed and Yasuo skins in Patch 2.8.0 and the Pool Party Taliyah in Patch 2.10.0, there’s a new level-up animation for Sentinel Irelia. Aside from a matching level-up animation, there will also be updated token art for Blades summoned from Blade Dance while the skin is equipped. This is similar in fashion to Dark Star Zed, who alters the art of all created Living Shadows when selected.
Here’s every new cosmetic coming with LoR Patch 2.12.0.
