Since its release on 2011-06-27, this Common tier skin has become a legacy skin. This means it's no longer available for purchase in the store, but you might be able to get it from chests, rerolling skins, or during specific periods in the year when Riot brings it back.

What Makes This Skin Special

Here's what you get with Baron Von Veigar: While this skin doesn't add new effects or animations, it offers a visual redesign that gives Veigar a fresh look on the Rift.

Unlike some skins that come with a rainbow of chromas, Baron Von Veigar keeps it focused with just the base design. So sadly, no chroma options here.
