Rarest LoL Summoner Icons

Beta - Grand Master Beta Participant is the rarest LoL summoner icon. Riot gave it to the 100 highest-rated players of the 2009 beta. Riot never awarded it again.

The 10 rarest summoner icons

Rarest first, ranked by how few players could meet each requirement. Riot does not publish how many players own an icon.

Tournament and leaderboard winners

These icons went to the winners of a Clash bracket or to the top 2,000 players on China's Master's Challenge server. Each Clash bracket had one winning team.

Retired modes and one-off rewards

Each of these icons depended on a game mode, a system or an event that has ended. Nobody can meet these requirements today.

Exalted and Transcendent skin icons

Each of these icons came with an Exalted or Transcendent skin. Riot sold those skins for a limited time and does not sell them now.
