Valentine's Day



Saint Valentine's Day (also known as  or  Feast of Saint Valentine) is a holiday observed on February 14 each year. It's celebrated in many countries around the world, although its not an official holiday in most of them. Each year Riot Games Inc. marks this event with either a champion skin, gift card templates, or ward skins.

Champion skins
Since 2012, new champion skins have been released to celebrate Valentine's Day. Unlike other events (e.g. the Harrowing or Snowdown Showdown) the release of Valentine's Day skins began as permanent additions to the store but have become Legacy as of now (not including the Debonair skins). List of all Valentine's Day Champion skins:
 * 2012 (Legacy)

Summoner Icons
For each Valentine's Day event, there are new summoner icons that one can obtain by various means during the event. For more information on these icons click here. Below is a gallery of all Valentine's Day icons:

Ward Skins

Summoners!

Vayne Tumbles into Valentine’s Day!
Valentine's Day is here, and Cupid's not the only bow-wielding cutie bound to be tugging at your heart strings this February! This holiday we’re rolling out a brand new skin for your favorite Night Hunter that's sure to be love at first sight. Feast your eyes on ! 2013=

From The Defender of Tomorrow in the Fashion of Today, exclusive to IM


“The room smells of mahogany and warm brandy, and I can tell by the leopard-skin hearthrug that the man I’ve come to interview is well-accustomed to company. They’re finishing the shoot in the foyer where Jayce, the Defender of Tomorrow, has suited up in the high fashion of today. In the meantime, I have free reign of the illustrious inventor’s sitting-room and I’m staring at the newest model of the world-famous Mercury Cannon-Hammer.

Slim and trim, and as stylish as the room I’m standing in, this iteration of Jayce’s signature weapon has refined lines and looks as clean as Piltover’s finests’ sterilized holding cells – not that I’ve seen them, of course. When we met last night, Jayce told me with his trademark wit about the new effects that issue from the cannon’s powerful blasts.

The door swings open and dapper Jayce strides with the effortless grace of someone who has more awards than bottles of wine despite a cellar the size of an Ionian temple. Dressed to the skies with a white overcoat and charming rose boutonniere, Jayce has picked up a confident swagger and a noticeable change in his voice…”

Dressed to the skies with a white overcoat and classy boutonniere, sleek and stylish is ready for Valentine’s Day for 975 RP in the store. 2014=

Debonair Galio doesn’t always go mid lane...
BY RIOT PARADOX

"His calculations are so precise, Vel’Koz asks him for help with geometry.

His singing in the shower is so breathtaking, it stole Sona’s voice.

He once stepped on a mushroom and Teemo exploded.

He is...

The Most Interesting Gargoyle-like Construct in the World.

Happy Valentine’s!
BY ROCKET BABY DOLL

Love is in the air! Teemo is blowing kisses instead of darts, Tahm Kench is slipping even more tongue than usual and - whether you’re in bot lane, jungle or top - there’s no escaping Fifty Shades of Graves.

That’s right, it’s coming up on Valentine’s Day, and while nobody is expecting hostilities in League of Legends to cease completely, Summoner’s Rift is as susceptible to the romance of the season as anywhere else.

That’s why we’re pleased to unveil a collaboration with amazingly talented community artist Rachel J Corey, who you may have seen featured in /ALL Chat’s Summoner Showcase last year for her amazing League of Legends fan artwork. Rachel has put together five unique cards so that you can celebrate your love of League throughout your romantic endeavours.

So have a Happy Valentine’s Day - and if you see us on the Rift, feel free to give us a cuddle before you blow our brains out!
