Updated Mythic Chroma in Patch 12.14

We are going to be getting new mythic chromas in the upcoming League of Legends patch. Mythic chromas are a new type of mythic content Riot has added in Patch 12.12 with the new Final Boss Veigar mythic chroma, giving the champion skin a new hue, as well as the VFX.

Mythic chromas are reserved for seasonal mythics, as well as legendary skins, so which legendary skin will be on the receiving end of a mythic chroma? Well, since we're in the middle of the Star Guardian event, of course, Riot is going to be giving the chroma to an already existing Star Guardian legendary skin.

Star Guardian Jinx is going to be getting a new mythic chroma, as well as a new icon which you receive along with the chroma in the mythic shop. Sure, a lot of fans were hoping for Star Guardian Xayah and Rakan, but this mythic chroma actually looks kind of nice.

Upcoming League of Legends Skins in Patch 12.14

Of course, as already mentioned we are in the midst of the 10-week Star Guardian event and Riot is going to push out even more Star Guardian skins in LoL Patch 12.14. Six champions will be getting skins, one prestige skin and one legendary skin amongst the bunch.

Which Champions Are Getting Star Guardian Skins?

As already mentioned, six champions will be receiving new skins. Syndra, who already got a Star Guardian skin is going to be getting a prestige version of her old skin which players can pick up in the mythic shop. But there are five more champions getting skins.

Star Guardian Syndra Prestige Edition
Star Guardian Rell
Star Guardian Quinn
Star Guardian Taliyah
Star Guardian Akali
Star Guardian Morgana

Akali is going to be front and centre throughout the event, with the main story playing out between her and Kai'Sa who received her skin in LoL Patch 12.13 already.

When is LoL Patch 12.14 Out?

The next League of Legends Patch is going to be released on July 27, 2022. We are back to the regular patch schedule after Patch 12.12 was a 3-week patch, so expect this next patch to come within the normal two-week time span.
