All LoL Worlds Champion Skins - Every Set Released
Table of Contents

Fifteen World Championships, thirteen winning rosters, and more than seventy commemorative skins later, the League of Legends Worlds skin collection is now bigger than the champion pool of some MOBAs.

Here's all the Worlds champion skin sets, year by year, team by team, with the stories sorted out along the way.

How Worlds Skins Happen

Win the League of Legends World Championship, and every player on the winning roster picks a favorite champion. Riot designs a commemorative skin for each pick, drops it in the shop the following year, and funnels a chunk of sales back to the players, the team, and their regional league through the Team Pass revenue-share system.

A few rules for picking the skin. Players typically have to have actually used the champion during the tournament, or at minimum have a real connection to it, which means no picking Teemo because you think he's funny. The Finals MVP usually gets a bonus, and since 2022, that bonus has meant a Prestige edition of their skin.

Fnatic 2011

Fnatic lifted the very first Worlds trophy in Jönköping, Sweden, and remains the only European team ever to win it. The skins are among the rarest still in the client, though Riot later reissued them as the "Reignited" versions.

  • FNATIC Karthus — xPeke
  • FNATIC Jarvan IV — Cyanide
  • FNATIC Gragas — Shushei
  • FNATIC Corki — LaMiaZeaLoT
  • FNATIC Janna — Mellisan

Taipei Assassins 2012

The Taiwanese squad ran through Korea's best to become the only Garena-region team ever to win Worlds. After the roster disbanded, Toyz's Orianna became a tribute skin — and none of these ever return to the shop.

  • TPA Shen — Stanley
  • TPA Dr. Mundo — Lilballz
  • TPA Orianna — Toyz
  • TPA Ezreal — BeBe
  • TPA Nunu & Willump — MiSTakE

SK Telecom T1 2013

SKT's first title set the template for every Worlds drop that followed and turned championship skins into genuine prestige purchases, with Faker's Zed becoming shorthand for his legacy.

  • SKT T1 Jax — Impact
  • SKT T1 Lee Sin — Bengi
  • SKT T1 Zed — Faker
  • SKT T1 Vayne — Piglet
  • SKT T1 Zyra — PoohManDu

Samsung White 2014

Samsung White demolished the field in Seoul, and Mata's Finals MVP Thresh still tops most best-ever Worlds skin lists. Like too many early winners, the roster never reassembled after the title.

  • SSW Singed — Looper
  • SSW Rengar — DanDy
  • SSW Talon — PawN
  • SSW Twitch — imp
  • SSW Thresh — Mata (Finals MVP)

SK Telecom T1 2015

The first six-skin Worlds set, and one of the cleanest Riot has ever shipped, was earned at Berlin's Mercedes-Benz Arena, with MaRin taking Finals MVP.

  • SKT T1 Renekton — MaRin (Finals MVP)
  • SKT T1 Elise — Bengi
  • SKT T1 Ryze — Faker
  • SKT T1 Kalista — Bang
  • SKT T1 Alistar — Wolf
  • SKT T1 Azir — Easyhoon

SK Telecom T1 2016

The back-to-back was headlined by Faker's Syndra, one of the cleanest MVP skins ever made. Riot also shipped a ward skin for coach kkOma, the only non-champion Worlds cosmetic until 2025.

  • SKT T1 Ekko — Duke
  • SKT T1 Olaf — Bengi
  • SKT T1 Zac — Blank
  • SKT T1 Syndra — Faker (Finals MVP)
  • SKT T1 Jhin — Bang
  • SKT T1 Nami — Wolf
  • SKT T1 kkOma Ward — coach kkOma

Samsung Galaxy 2017

The rematch nobody expected: Samsung Galaxy swept SKT 3-0 in Beijing, and Haru and CoreJJ's Xayah and Rakan formed the only in-game lover-duo set in Worlds history. Ruler took Finals MVP.

  • SSG Gnar — CuVee
  • SSG Jarvan IV — Ambition
  • SSG Taliyah — Crown
  • SSG Ezreal — Ruler (Finals MVP)
  • SSG Xayah — Haru
  • SSG Rakan — CoreJJ

Invictus Gaming 2018

The first Chinese team to lift the cup, sweeping Fnatic 3-0 in Incheon behind Finals MVP Ning, with a set that pushed Riot's particle and backing-animation work forward.

  • iG Fiora — TheShy
  • iG Irelia — Duke
  • iG Camille — Ning (Finals MVP)
  • iG LeBlanc — Rookie
  • iG Kai'Sa — JackeyLove
  • iG Rakan — Baolan

FunPlus Phoenix 2019

FPX ran through G2 in Paris, and Tian's Lee Sin, the second Worlds Lee Sin, carried a Finals MVP trophy with it. The 2019 anthem "Phoenix" still slaps.

  • FPX Gangplank — GimGoon
  • FPX Lee Sin — Tian (Finals MVP)
  • FPX Malphite — Doinb
  • FPX Vayne — Lwx
  • FPX Thresh — Crisp

DAMWON Gaming 2020

The lockdown Worlds, decided in a near-empty Shanghai stadium, sent the cup back to Korea for the first time since 2017 behind Canyon's Finals MVP jungle run.

  • DWG Kennen — Nuguri
  • DWG Nidalee — Canyon (Finals MVP)
  • DWG Twisted Fate — ShowMaker
  • DWG Jhin — Ghost
  • DWG Leona — BeryL

EDward Gaming 2021

Arguably the best splash art in Worlds history. EDG ended DAMWON KIA's reign in a five-game Reykjavík final, with Scout taking Finals MVP.

  • EDG Graves — Flandre
  • EDG Viego — Jiejie
  • EDG Zoe — Scout (Finals MVP)
  • EDG Aphelios — Viper
  • EDG Yuumi — Meiko

DRX 2022

The Cinderella run: DRX clawed out of play-ins to beat T1 in a five-game San Francisco final, where veteran Deft finally lifted the cup, and Kingen's Aatrox introduced the first-ever Prestige Worlds skin.

  • DRX Aatrox — Kingen (Finals MVP, + Prestige)
  • DRX Kindred — Pyosik
  • DRX Maokai — Juhan
  • DRX Akali — Zeka
  • DRX Caitlyn — Deft
  • DRX Ashe — BeryL

T1 2023

Faker's fourth title and T1's first since 2016, a 3-0 sweep of Weibo Gaming in Seoul. Zeus took Finals MVP and a Prestige Jayce, while Oner's Lee Sin became the third Worlds Lee Sin.

  • T1 Jayce — Zeus (Finals MVP, + Prestige)
  • T1 Lee Sin — Oner
  • T1 Ahri — Faker
  • T1 Jinx — Gumayusi
  • T1 Bard — Keria

If watching Faker collect World Championships makes you want to actually improve at mid lane instead of just rewatching VODs, booking a session with a Challenger League of Legends coach on WeCoach is the fastest way to close the gap between "I know the theory" and "I actually play it right in my solo queue games."

T1 2024

Back-to-back and Faker's fifth title. Riot titled the set "The Unkillable Knights of the Crown," and Faker became the first player to earn two skins in one cycle: base Yone plus a Prestige Sylas.

  • T1 Gnar — Zeus
  • T1 Vi — Oner
  • T1 Yone — Faker (Finals MVP)
  • T1 Sylas — Faker (Prestige)
  • T1 Varus — Gumayusi
  • T1 Pyke — Keria

T1 2025 Three-Peat

T1 did what no team had done before, beating KT Rolster 3-2 in China on November 9, 2025, for an unprecedented three-peat and Faker's sixth title, with Gumayusi taking Finals MVP. Riot revealed the set on June 23, 2026, and it went live with Patch 26.14 on July 15, 2026.

  • T1 Ambessa — Doran
  • T1 Xin Zhao — Oner
  • T1 Galio — Faker
  • T1 Yunara — Gumayusi (Finals MVP)
  • T1 Miss Fortune — Gumayusi (Prestige)
  • T1 Seraphine — Keria
  • T1 "Magical Cat Strategist" Ward — coach Tom

On the shop side, the base skins are Epic-tier at 1,350 RP, Gumayusi's Prestige Miss Fortune runs on Mythic Essence, and 30% of the collection's revenue flows back to T1 and its players.

How to Unlock Worlds Championship Skins

Recent Worlds skins from 2020 onward stay in the in-game shop on a rotating basis. You can buy them with RP whenever Riot opens the sale window, which usually runs through Worlds season each year and then for a month or two after the finals wrap up.

Older skins from 2011 to 2019 are locked to their original release windows and will not return to the shop, with rare exceptions when Riot refreshes an entire legacy skin line (like the Reignited Worlds 2011 Fnatic set).

Prestige Worlds skins require Mythic Essence, not RP, and they only drop during specific event windows tied to each Worlds cycle. Miss the window, miss the skin, and you will not have another chance until Riot reruns it later, if they do.
