Another Icon(s) question

Mellori·Feb 12, 2015·1 votes·2,963 views

~~So, Nemesis Draft is up. On Surrender @ 20, they said there were 3 or 4 (Can't remember the number exaclty) new icons coming out for the mode.~~

One of them is probably for not dodging (which they talked about is coming 2 weeks after the mode ends), and another one (according to the wiki) is for just playing the game once. My question is, does anyone know how to get the other(s)? I'm trying to grab them all and I wanna make sure I don't miss out on a few because I don't know how to get them.

~~I'm an icon collector, don't judge. :c~~

~~Basically, my question is, has anyone gotten a new icon other than the Ziggs one listed on the wiki? If so, how?~~

~~Edit: The icon listed for playing one game is a Ziggs icon. There are two other Teemo icons on S@20 that I could find relating to the mode.~~

Edit 2: So, I was wrong, just one icon. Question answered!

Hi there! Yup, your edit is correct! It's one icon, and it's earned by playing the game mode and not dodging!

As the FAQ states, keep in mind that the icon won’t actually hit your account until up to two weeks after Nemesis Draft closes shop, so don't worry if you're not seeing it right away. :]

What were the Teemo icons for, then? Or is that top secret knowledge? :o

We haven't officially announced what they'll be for. :]

btw, how come some of your icons never appear?? Like the Fizz icon for OCE that was said to be available on all servers. I still haven't seen it. Also, missing icons from DJ Sona on PBE. I don't get what's with icons missing half the time.

For Sona, the PBE environment is a testing environment, which means a lot of things aren't final, and are a work in progress. We're currently in the process of hooking up the icons, which is why they haven't been auto unlocking with the skin purchase.

Unfortunately, I can't speak to the Fizz icon.

Oh. Okay. Thanks.

Yeah, I thought I saw someone with the name of Tundra Fizz post on boards and it said he was on NA server, and I thought I saw him have the icon while I still haven't seen it.

Gotcha. I just figured they were all for the new mode since everyone said they looked like older ones from a game mode. Thanks!

Just 1 game to earn it?

Does it count if it's a custom Nemesis Dominion or Howling Abyss so I don't have to suffer through Summoner's Rift?

One game, but it has to be matchmade, so not custom.

plz, i cant't play nemesis because am afraid of getting dc or whatever, just don't do that requirement again in game mode.

So for this not dodging thing... does it count as a dodge if we fail to select a champion in time? Because I just failed to do that as a result of attempting to strategize with my teammates. It seems like Riot's decided to punish teamwork with this icon, which feels really counterintuitive.

Unfourtunately yes that count as dodging :(

so, i played two games in this mode and didnt enjoy them. then my friends invited me, i accepted thinking that it was a norms and when i saw that it was Nemesis, i dodged. just didnt want to play nemesis any more! so i wont get the icon? i mean, that's fine, it just seems...weird! sometimes you have to dodge because of unrelated stuff, not because you dislike the comp...
