What Makes This Skin Special

Let's talk about what makes PROJECT Katarina worth your RP. At 1350 RP, you're getting a feature-rich skin with plenty of new visuals that really change how Katarina looks in-game.

Here's what you get with PROJECT Katarina: ✓ Brand new visual effects that add serious flair to your abilities ✓ Fresh animations that make Katarina move in new, thematic ways ✓ A custom recall animation that's worth showing off before you head back to base
