Chroma

 Chroma skins are recolored variants of a champion's classic or purchasable skins. Each Chroma is available for purchase individually for 290, as well as part of a bundle known as a Chroma Pack at a discounted price. Chromas go on sale for 2000 or 195 each during the Essence Emporium. The first Chroma skins came live with patch V5.8 on April 28, 2015 in Season Five. Some chromas are special than others:

• Golden: all Golden Chromas are a part of events and only unlockable through the Hextech system.
• Ruby: since V8.15, these chromas are only unlockable by buying the chroma bundle.
  • This has not been the case as the first instance of these chromas being bundle exclusive goes as far as V8.3.
• Emerald: since V8.20, these chromas are part of the Partner Program (with some exceptions). For more information, see the Partner Program Chroma section.
• Championship Kha'Zix Chromas: 24/25 of his chromas are unlockable only by buying icons.

Trivia

• The word 'chroma' is Greek for 'color', reflecting how a Chroma is a skin in 'another color'.
• When a champion gets updated or the parent skin receives new chromas, the already existing assets will get updated/adjusted to match the new model/store/client assets:
  • Mecha Aatrox
    Chromas: Obsidian, Pearl, Tanzanite (received a Visual Update)
  • Dragonslayer Braum
    Chromas: Amethyst, Catseye, Emerald, Obsidian, Pearl, Sandstone (updated to match Team/Fan Pass chromas)
  • Debonair Ezreal
    Chromas: Amethyst, Meteorite, Obsidian, Pearl, Rose Quartz, Ruby, Sandstone, Striped (received a Visual Update)
  • Dragon Fist Lee Sin
    Chromas: Black, Blue, Yellow (received new chromas)
  • Arcade Miss Fortune
    Chromas: Amethyst, Aquamarine, Citrine, Peridot, Ruby (updated to match K.O. chroma)
  • Original Morgana
    Chromas: Ebony, Pale, Toxic (received a Visual Update)
  • Dragonslayer Pantheon
    Chromas: Amethyst, Catseye, Emerald, Obsidian, Pearl, Ruby, Sandstone (received a Visual Update)
  • Warring Kingdoms Xin Zhao
    Chromas: Amethyst, Aquamarine, Pearl, Peridot, Rose Quartz, Ruby (updated to match Golden chroma)
• Chromas usually only change the base texture of their parent skins but on very rare occasions, will change their particles.
• Each Chroma pack released prior to V6.17 were only available as part of a bundle, and had unique collection names. For example, a Lucian wearing a Chroma of his Classic skin would appear as Lucian Prime in the Loading Screen.^[1]
  • For maintenance purposes, bundle names have been dropped from the League of Legends Wiki. The following is listed for archival purposes:

• Before V7.22, Chromas went on sale for IP twice a year. During IP sales, individual Chromas costed 2000 or 195 each. After that, IP became BE, making the cost for Chromas 2000 or 195.
• Chromas are considered non-canon.
