Celebrating the end of this year's Snowdown

Riot·Jan 5, 2015·23 votes·482,047 views

Say farewell to your friends, for Snowdown has passed.
The Legend of the Poro King conquered at last.
We won some, we lost some, we tossed many poros.

Some landed and some missed, that is just how it goes.
Who really won this Snowdown? Only the poros know.
Every single game, a unique Snowdown surprise.

The year may be over, but only Amumu cries--
Even if it's over, we learned one thing at the end:
Snowdown gathers strangers, but we all leave as friends.

Thank you! Together we’ve had another incredible year and we've enjoyed taking a few big steps in League’s evolution with you. While Snowdown may be over, there’s one more thing we wanted to do to commemorate 2014.

Over the next few days, we'll be rewarding positive League of Legends players with a classic Mystery Gift as thanks for being such an awesome part of our community. If you haven’t received a chat restriction, ranked restriction, 14-day ban or permanent ban in 2014, and you meet the requirements to receive a Mystery Gift (you’re Level 5 or higher and there are at least 10 skins you don’t own), you’re on our list!

Thank you again for a fantastic 2014. Share what you unlocked in your Mystery Gift below, and we’ll see you on the Rift in the new year!

Dear Riot, I have been playing your game since season one, around the time of Jarvan's release, and I have seen many gifts from your offices to players as a thank you, but rarely do we show appreciation back. I just want to thank you for your amazing service and let you know that I appreciate your efforts. item 2010

When I saw this comment I enjoyed it and yea people do need to show appreciation back and most do but the ones that don't need to start.

Kfirbros123Jan 6, 2015109 votes

people should start saying that they appreciate riot on other pages and on events that aren't for them giving us free stuff... come on guys we love this game and we can only thank the people who help make it better. RIOT WE LOVE U. i think i stand for almost every league player in existence. I hope to see every one who reads this comment in game, to keep having fun and most of all to experience this great game. summoner 31 = great mode

I swear if anyone complains about their gift I'll throw my homework in the toilet.

Teacher: why don't you have your homework? You: Noobs complaining about their gifts.

thank you riot, just when i thought we weren't going to get any gifts for the holidays, you announce this. this is made us all really happy. i hope you continue to both, show your that you care about your community, and that you reward players for being positive. well played riot, and here's to another great year of league.

Cheesy12Jan 6, 201588 votes

I hope the following situation doesn't happen because of their nice gift, but I get the feeling it will...

"Wahhhhh my friend got Spirit Guard Udyr(or any expensive skin) but I only got Lollipoppy Poppy , no fair Riot you suck boo hoo Amumu "

SynciteJan 6, 2015198 votes

What are you talking about? Lollipoppy is love Lollipoppy is life.

Laughing FishJan 6, 2015109 votes

Lollipoppy is the face of fear. Lollipoppy is the face of mercilessness. Lollipoppy is the sweetest skin in the game.

Hush, child. In due time. Zilean

Yulen XoshxiusJan 6, 201537 votes

That would be awesome if they released bloodmoon skins BEFORE they send us this.

Stars ShaperJan 6, 201561 votes

Sry to be that guy but....

When is the gift delivered and how will we know if we got it?

FaladaeJan 6, 201536 votes

When you get it you should get a notification once you log on or whenever you're online. :)

It will show which skin you got and likely a message from Riot.

SpyjockeyJan 6, 201559 votes

aaaaand now i'm happy I kept in all my rage. so worf

NOW we just need URF back and this will be the best year of League thus far =3.

Seductive CurryJan 6, 2015145 votes

Riot said URF will indeed be back for the 2015 season.

Kreha DanteJan 6, 201534 votes

doeas mystery gift mean a champion or a skin OR only a skin? i hope u get my question

WereSlothJan 6, 2015165 votes

It's a mystery.

Cheesy12Jan 6, 201549 votes

"you meet the requirements to receive a Mystery Gift (you’re Level 5 or higher and there are at least 10 skins you don’t own)"

Probably a skin because of this requirement.

Chr0nosReaperJan 6, 20159 votes

im hoping its a skin

UppButtCoconutJan 6, 201523 votes

?????? Many will disagree, but I think skins are pointless. Even if I was a skin buyer, I still would enjoy receiving a free champion over a skin.

AmazÍanJan 6, 201588 votes

Really? You will eventually own every single champion if you play long enough, but with skins it's very unlikely for someone to obtain all of them...i'd much rather get a free skin. We each have our own opinions i guess which is fine :)

Tblaze420Jan 6, 201518 votes

Hmmm... nd I dont get anything even after paying 100s of dollars because some trolls got me yelling all game........... I really hate this company.

1nfluenzaJan 6, 2015134 votes

Maybe the fault lies within yourself for becoming enraged at a team game, you are always going to run into those people who boil your blood, there is nothing you can do to change those people who play just to push your buttons, enjoy the game, enjoy life =)

Raven BranwenJan 6, 2015300 votes

Last I checked, you're the one controlling your keyboard, not the trolls.

Hey, you're very close to a 14-day or permanent ban due to your verbal abuse in games. If you like, I'm happy to review your chat logs with you.

IRL CuddlesJan 6, 2015380 votes

I had to log in just to up vote this <3

Hooked2CarryJan 7, 2015432 votes

Riot, Can we please receive notifications on whether we are or are not getting the wonderful pleasure of a new skin. This will relieve much of our expectation if we are unaware or not. This will also relieve much of the spam mail you receive about "I didn't get a skin cause noobs are bad at this game and I deserve a skin". Thank you, DEATHSREAPERZ28
