Hextech Crafting soon debuts on PBE

Riot·1/6/2016, 10:20:37 PM·4 votes·81,680 views

We’re just about ready to start testing loot and Hextech Crafting. Tomorrow, January 13, we’ll be introducing the new system to the PBE. We wanted to create a new way for players to unlock cosmetic content and champions, so we’re introducing a new system in 2016. Our two goals are to recognize and reward great performances in League and provide a way to pick up randomized loot at large discounts.

On Wednesday, Rioters behind Hextech Crafting, loot, and the upgrade to Champion Mastery rewards will be chatting about the design and testing of the new system, so head over to the Hextech Crafting and Loot Q&A at 11 AM PST on January 13, 2016 for even more info on the newest way to grow your League collection over time.

League of legends is a free game and people still complain about purely cosmetic items costing money...

Hopefully this time we will get skins that we actually want at a discount higher than 50%

Can you please add champion mastery to ARAM? Not everyone plays summoner's rift

Will chests and keys be able to be dropped from ARAM games (coming from someone that barely plays SR anymore)?

I can't believe people fall for these random cosmetic unlock scams...

So can I get skins for 100% free? Cuz I can't afford to spend money on this game, I'm one of those 100% free to play guys and I would love to get some skins for my most used champions.

I just hope this doesn't become TF2 crates...

I was so excited to be able to unlock free champions and skins. If they will be just discounts, I will be so disappointed, no matter how big of a discount it is.
