Riot gifted Mystery Skin non-existent

So I just got a message that I got the Arctic Ops skin for Varus from Riot as a mystery gift.

But that skin is not unlocked for me; what's going on?

Probably just a bug. I went through this a few days ago, here are the steps I took to rectify the issue:

  • Restart your client just to make sure!
  • Check your gifting history under "purchases" in the store.
  • Contact the support and tell them the problem, they usually can fix that all within a day (I sent in a request earlier today and it has since been replied to not once but twice).

Best of luck, use and abuse that lovely skin!

Hi Cayan,

There's been some issues recently with unlocked skins not actually showing immediately - if you haven't already I'd try logging out and back in, and also go to the store and pretend to purchase it - does it allow you to purchase it?

If it lets you as far as confirming the cost, please submit a ticket to Riot at http://support.leagueoflegends.com for them to investigate this further. If it basically shows you already own the skin, give it a little while - it should within the next few hours confirm as unlocked, if the logout doesn't work.
