Hoping to earn the Prestige Aatrox skin. I currently have 155 "2019 tokens" in my inventory and 1008 in my stash. The pass will give a attention 200, so 1355. A week to farm 700 tokens... while I'm working. Is this possible? If not... I believe I can only get tokens via wins/the pass until the 2nd of June. After this, will there be any more events/chances/ways to earn the remaining tokens I need before they expire?
FSRER10 votesThink of it the other way. By buying the Trial Pass you are giving the current Riot games, money, the Riot games that doesn't care about the gameplay of their game but more on how to make profit off it. If you want the prestige so much, go to pbe and get it and have fun with it but please, don't give them money because they took a aatrox skin and repainted it gold (just a chroma really), they don't deserve it. If you think of it like I do, then you will realise it isn't worth it.
Tomoe Gozen5 votesExcuse me but who are you to tell people what they should or shouldn't buy with their money? If you don't like Prestige skins yourself, that's fine. You don't have to spend money on those. But to tell someone else they shouldn't be spending money on them because you personally don't think they are worth it, is dumb.

It's a public board. OP asked for people to weigh in. Public opinion was INVITED. You may not agree with his opinion (and most here don't), but he WAS invited to express it...
Tomoe Gozen2 votesOP asked a question whether it's possible to earn 700 tokens in 7 days with a pass because they're also working in between. What OP didn't ask for is whether a random player on the board thinks if Prestige skins are worth their money or not. If they already decided to get 100 Prestige Points for a Prestige skin, then the OPINION that no one asked for is also a moot point.
Maybe you should read the thread again. This has nothing to do with the boards being public or not. Answer the question that was asked or at least contribute meaningfully to the discussion OP brought over. Derailing a thread because of your opinion that Riot shouldn't get "your" money for reasons wasn't even the topic of the discussion.

OP asked more than one question. The TITLE question, invites practically any response. OP didn't complain about this answer, either.
Tomoe Gozen2 votesOP didn't respond to that question either so your argument that any derailing response is fair game, is faulty at its core.
Also, do you know how to respond to a question properly? The title of this thread is just one piece of the puzzle, where OP further elaborates what his predicament is, in the body of the thread. This kind of a response only demonstrates that the person in question didn't even bother to read the rest of it. Which again, the reply from the person i responded to basically said that you shouldn't give Riot any money and that you should pretend like you own skins by going on PBE and playing a game or two to satisfy your desire for cosmetic content...
If i already decided to spend my money on skins or whatever and i'm asking a question whether, in my current predicament, is it worth it because of a time limited period, that kind of a response doesn't give an answer to my question. I didn't ask for your opinion on what you think of Riot nor what kind of a boycott you're on, that's your thing. And this isn't a thread to be discussing it in either. Just because this is a public board, doesn't give you the right to derail a thread or make it about yourself.
You don't see me replying to every thread on the boards for this very reason. In most cases, i do have an opinion on something but that doesn't mean i want to share it. And if i don't have an opinion, there's no reason for me to participate in a discussion just because i can. BECAUSE THIS IS A PUBLIC BOARD, you can make your own thread and discuss your opinion with others that share it or have counterpoints.
I'm not here trying to change your mind on your stance of not giving Riot your money so don't be that douche to try and change mine, if i didn't ask for your specific reasons.
#TL;DR
Answer the question of a particular thread or at least have a meaningful way of contributing to it, that pertains to the question that was asked. If you don't meet these two criteria, you have no business in being here nor talking about your opinions, if no one has asked for such an input.
If you want to talk about what you think is important, make your own thread and seek input from people who can equally contribute to your discussion.Don't hijack someone else's.

It seems to me that it was a legitimate response, but it was obvious that his opinion wasn't going to find much support in this thread.

OP literally asked a question but ok.
Tomoe Gozen1 votesOP asked if it was possible to earn 700 tokens in 7 days with the pass. What OP DIDN'T ASK FOR is whether someone here thinks if spending money for RP is worth it or not. And the absolute tidbit this person also shared is that we have PBE, where everyone should get their skins "fix" and call it a day...
Maybe people should actually read the thread before answering a question and not attempt to derail it?

Think of it this way
Some people still enjoy the game and are happy to support the game.
I can think of worse game developers to "support".
EA and Blizzard come to mind.
Absolut Garen7 votesI'd need to have 400 tokens in my stash before I'll consider getting the pass late. I didn't care for any of the exclusive content in this event, and also noticed that there is NO free OE from this event - not available from the event orb, and no possibility to purchase chests with tokens. This event is good for BE farming, but I already have more BE than I can use. (Even with the BE Emporium coming up.) So didn't really "play the event". Nevertheless, if I accumulated 400 stash tokens then I'd have to consider that the pass is already "paying for itself".
Of course, if there is a particular item that you want, then go ahead. You should have bought the pass at the beginning though, in that case.
ModAcademy Kayn5 votesThe heck does Stash mean in this? Can you store tokens or something?
Targon5 votesIf you haven't purchased the Trial's Pass, any tokens you would have earned by playing PVP Summoner's Rift or ARAM are put in your token "Stash". If you decide to buy the pass at a later date during the event, you unlock all of the tokens in your stash. I believe you can view your stash in the missions tab (again, provided that you haven't bought the pass yet).
ModAcademy Kayn4 votesOh i see.

The heck does Stash mean in this? Can you store tokens or something?
Yes, haven't you noticed that prior to purchasing a pass, the game records your Stash... the tokens that you would have received, and gives them to you when and if you buy the pass.
ModAcademy Kayn4 votesI bought the pass before i played any games during the event, same as past events. Rip me i guess

Why? That's the best - you get the most value from your pass that way. I think Stash does not give quite all of the tokens that you would have earned. In previous events it didn't pay out FWoTD, for example.
Tomoe Gozen6 votesPurchasing the Pass on day 1 gives you daily missions for extra tokens and it automatically gives you the ability to bank your Stash. You didn't screw things up because these daily token missions are not retroactive. Meaning that if you purchase the pass at a later date, you will only be getting these daily missions from the day that you purchased the pass and until the last date when tokens can be earned. Missed missions will not be added to your missions tab.
MillForMe2 votesGet it. I've been doing 3 ARAM games daily for 4 per loss or 8 per win. Then the 18 per mission a day is nice. If for some reason I don't squeeze more games in, I'll buy the bundle for more tokens.
Cat lady1 votesWell, if you only got a week, you would have to get at least 100 tokens a day or more, I'm doing that right now to get my prestige Lux, but I'm already done in a day. To get 100 tokens, it's at least 10 wins of rift games or more if you lose. Now you can try to calculate how many hours would it take to get it, but if you are working, it may get a bit difficult. We don't know anything about future events yet, so I can't answer that.
Also: Right now, people with a pass ae having a glitch of not receiving tokens for 1-2 days now, I have written to support, but no reply yet, so hopefully they will fix it soon.
2Charmnot2Charm2 votesLess cause first win of the day bonus (or 3 games if no win)
Cat lady1 votesOh yes, I forgot. Thanks for adding that up!
Ahri Baka1 votes100 tokens per day isn't hard you can also get the first win of the day bonus ( 18 tokens )
Glaricion1 votesWouldn't that take something like 5-7 hours a day to achieve? You'll be heavily burnt out, be losing sleep, and hating the game by then I'd guess. Is possible, but probably wouldn't recommend it.
On the bright side... Don't know about you, but I think that Prestige Aatrox is a downgrade from normal Bloodmoon Aatrox. You wouldn't be missing much just skipping out on the grind and would probably benefit from just buying the normal skin.
Daddy Ants1 votes155 + 200 + 1008 = 1,363
You need 2200 tokens for the 100 prestige points.
So that leaves 837.
First Win of the Day with the pass grants 18 tokens so 18 x 7 = 126 (You can get this through SR Co OP vs AI)
That leaves 711.
To hit your target you would need to win
or
The grind will be intense, you will probably burn out quickly.
Is Prestige Aatrox worth it, really? The Lux one seems so much better (to me at least) and is 200 tokens cheaper.
Original Sin2 voteshow is it worth if you dont even play lux? Sure its a nice skin but i aint playing such a useless and boring champ

My apologies then :)
Daddy Ants1 votesFor me personally I didn't bother grinding Prestige Points.
I have 65. If a Prestige skin comes out in the future for a champion I'm interested in, I'll just buy the other 35.
I bought Prestige Lux.
I'm 80 tokens short of the Yuumi chroma then I'm done grinding.
Original Sin1 votesIt aint possible unless youre playing 20 games a day or something like that.
Sathelight1 votesPretige Aatrox will be available till February 1st 2020. If you get the pass you'll get access to 5 missions that grant you 25 Prestige Points.
In future events this option to get 25 PP or 100PP via tokens will be back so you have loads of time and opportunities to get Prestige Aatrox :)
800 tokens means grinding a lot though. You can combine it with buying orbs so it's less frustrating but that's only if you neeeed this skin right here right now. Otherwise you still have time to get it via passes and missions.
On My Kill List1 votesnope its too late now.
