I got Brolaf from the free legendary skin permanent. Pretty neat riot gave us such nice goodies right?

Let's forget about the bad for 1 post and say what good loot we got from this year's anniversary.

I also got elementalist lux on the masterwork chest :) Pretty happy with it

I can't even begin with all the good stuff I got from chests this year on my 6 smurfs.

It's crazy.

Probably 400$-500$ worth of stuff ...

I got Gun Goddess Miss Fortune, Hyena Warwick, and Snowmerdinger. A bit sad that I didn't get the Pulsefire Caitlyn I was hoping for, but all together I got alot of cool new stuff, so thanks for that, Riot!

The 6300 blue essence was amazing for me, I was able to get tier 6 mastery for two champions and I can buy Senna when she releases if her kit looks cool.

Annie in wonderland stole my happiness

Seems like plenty of us got the old legendaries from seasons 1-2. Still, even though brolaf is not up to par with modern day legendaries I am glad it is now in my collection. Good VO and I have a reason to play him in aram

I can't even say anything to you mate. I hate annie skins very much. Could be because I have gotten 3 annie skins just from rerolls xD Reverse, Sweetheart prom queen xD

Nothing tbh, lol, except for the 200 tokens which will be useful for the prestige skins for me, legendary skin is garbo, sg rakan, only because i wished for sg xayah, when i saw it at first when it said "star guardian" and i saw rakan i was like WOOOO DATS XAYAH RIGHT? but just after those 2 words, it said rakan, and my dream was ruined :( well, at least they let me recycle the skins from the shards, and even got a championship thresh, which i love, and i can get the golden chroma as well, overall good, but could be better, but, still something, so i guess i should say thanks

Saezio3 votes

also 3k Orange Essence which was one of the best gifts for me because I am always stuck with many skins I want to upgrade, so I got to upgrade 3 epics I had in my inventory. Felt pretty great and I never expected riot to give so much OE.

Project Vayne and Brolaf on my main account and Battlecast Prime Cho Gath on my smurf :)

The skins i've gotten arent really for champs i play, but i LOVE that 3k Orange Essence, absolutely awesome to be able to know if i get a skin i like i can immediately activate it :)

and this is by far the most generous event in terms of free loot I've ever seen riot do since i started playing!

Kai Guy2 votes

I had weak rolls but I dont mind free stuff and the fan art splashes I enjoyed. Especially malph.

I just wanna play a game or two with kingcobra or bazerka lol. Or chat with Sap Magic about MM, I'm curious what distribution Riot uses. I bet its Verhulst. I'm super curious about how positional mm functions.

For me the two gemstones are what is so hot about all this.

Kai Guy1 votes

Best thing I got from the event as well. Thou the annie skin is entertaining because of the Teemo tibbers.

StonePlatypus2 votes

This even is decent. It doesn't make up for all the bullshit an average player has to go through, but it's a decent 10 year celebration.

I won't let a little bit of free swag blind me to the glaring problems both internally at Riot and the game itself, but they at least can throw a decent event.

Oh my god I want the elementalist lux skin all i got was omega teemo item 3070

I got tf the magnificent I want to kms, I had already a fragment of him before...

They did great with the anniversary. But I hope we don't get to wait another 10 years for such an event

Saezio3 votes

I mean, I would like this too but I don't want to be greedy.

I remember in seasons 1-3 we used to get like 1-2 free skins per year... Now we get 30 or more for free and we actually get a choice between our shards. It's really nice imo. I have a skin for like 75% of champions from hextech.

Best of The Best1 votes

i got star guardian jinx on my main and battle academia ezreal on my smurf. I was really hoping the Rito gods would bless me with Dunk master Darius, but overall i had a good haul especially with the amount of legendary skins shards i already had saved up and the free 3k essence they gave us. i shouldn't really be complaining anyway considering my brother got Annie in wonderland and was upset he couldn't re-roll

ShyImagoghnar1 votes

the fact that everyone's getting a free legendary demonstrates just how fuckin profitable lootboxes really are lmao

Kai Guy1 votes

No shit. There's a reason some devs refuse to even let you buy skins with $ currency and force you to rely only on RNG.

OrangeGremlin1 votes

I have to say, I love the annieversary skin, it's amazing they gave away such a nice skin for free, great job Riot

Mhihnj1 votes

Got arcade caitlyn, arcade riven, majestic empress morgana, demonblade tryndamere and championship Ryze(which promptly disappeared, still waiting for Riot support's response on that).

Saezio1 votes

Wow really? It disappeared ? I guess you will hear back from them and you will get the skin. Really weird because it's not like it's a limited skin or anything.

Mhihnj1 votes

Got a reply. Apparently, I was not supposed to get Championship Ryze from the orb as the skin will not be craftable until November 25th. So yeah, it is there in my inventory, just not visible. However, I did get a masterwork chest as compensation (got lancer Wukong from that btw) so that's nice.

Saezio1 votes

Interesting, I've never heard of this happening before. Congratz on the wuk skin. One of his best skins imo.

Annie-versary is just an amazing skin. I’m now always going to use it whenever I feel like Annie that day.

Saezio2 votes

I am personally an aram enthusiast so I never know what champs I will play that day. Hextech entire system looks like it was created for us aram fanatics cause we need at least 1 skin for each champ :D

TonyTonyMordecai1 votes

Obviously Annie-versary, it's somewhere between a 1350 and 1820 (she has face animations!!!), Project Lucian (not sure if it was from the loot or just one of the chests, but I need to unlock Lucian after Senna), Star Guardian Rakan (legendary skin token), IG Fiora (masterwork, don't play her but might just for kicks and giggles), Sylas (6300 BE), Uncle Ryze (masterwork, also don't play him but it's a skin to fool around with)

Saezio1 votes

I love aram so I am aiming for 1 skin on every champ. So everything that comes my way is hella welcome :D

Garen is adopted1 votes

I got red baron corki, fucking red baron corki, not even at least a bad skin on a champion at least I own, just the sweety Annie and her buff Teemo can keep my tilt from this event.

BakonYummi1 votes

yes, but no.. i got gentleman cho'gath from the legendary. the 2 gemstones were used to get the masterworks chests which gave me 2 emotes. i used the 200 tokens to craft 3 keys and a fragment, which turned into 4 keys with my other 2 fragments. i used those on 4 chests that i had and those turned into a pool party zac skin shard, an icon, and 2 ward skin shards. i ended up rerolling 3 of the skin shards given and got beast hunter draven, with the epic one being disenchanted because it was skt zac

Saezio1 votes

Fun fact. Ward skins are really high value if you are after Orange essence. It's 250 OE which is almost as much as deconning an epic skin. Also, rerolling is almost never worth it, unless you have 3 520 skins. You would rather keep saving until you get a skin you want to upgrade. And I do believe icons also come with some OE so it's not just the icon.

Hope this makes you feel a bit better about your luck :)

So they turn the game sideways, fill it with micro-transactions and raise the price of all new skins and I'm supposed to thank them for a handful of trinkets for the 10 year anniversary? Free stuff is always nice and all, but I'd rather not die instead of thanking the executioner for sharpening his axe...

Saezio1 votes

A tad melodramatic I think. I guess because I was there since season 2 free skins are a wonder to me. :) I remember the days when it was really unusual to see a single skin between all 10 players in that match. Except Unchained Alistar Rocket girl tristana and Dreadknight garen

Żügżwäng1 votes

Agree, thanks for the generous event. My vanilla cake was a dud, but RNG is just that. I did get dunkmaster darius, which is nice.

Pandemic Punch1 votes

I feel like this is about what EVERY event SHOULD feel like and the 10th Anniversary could have been something more since we will never get another one again. We might get a 20th anniversary if the game survives that long and if the players stay alive for that long (many of us will be in our 40's and late 30's by then). But that is 10 more years of waiting for another OK event. You also still have to pay money to get the most out of the event.

Was the event good? Yes Was the event good enough for a 10 YEAR anniversary? No

A 10 year anniversary should be epic without a premium. It was only GOOD and WITH a premium to get all of the benefits. I must reiterate that the 10th Anniversary is what all events should feel like. The Gangplank event still felt the most impactful. The Star Guardian: Invasion and the Space Odyssey events were the most fun. 10th Anniversary was almost just another event with more free stuff.

Probably the only significant thing about this event for me was the announcement of other games. That was "kind of" exciting. I would love to try out their other games, but the announcement falls kind of flat when we probably won't even be able to play them for another year or two.

Saezio1 votes

I don't consider 10 year anniversary as an event. I consider it a giveaway.

And no, if we got all these stuff on every event with how often events happen we would all end up with every skin in the game lol.

3k OE+ 2gemstones+masterwork chests+free legendary permanent+vanilla orb is like 50$ of free stuff already, maybe more if you are lucky
