What Makes This Skin Special

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

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

If one look isn't enough for you, Sentinel Pyke comes with 9 different chroma options. That means once you own the base skin, you can pick up these color variants to match your mood or your team comp. Some players collect them all, while others just grab their favorite color.

One thing to keep in mind: this skin is available through the loot system. So if you're the type to save your RP, you might get lucky with a hextech chest or event orb. But don't count on it - if you really want this skin, buying it directly is your best bet.

Who made Sentinel Pyke?

Ever wonder who's responsible for making these skins? We'll break it down for you:

When you hear Sentinel Pyke in game, you're listening to the work of voice actor Darien Sills-Evans, who brings real personality to the lines.

That splash art that caught your eye? It came from the tablet of several artists working together: Rayden Chen and West Studio . This collaboration resulted in the amazing artwork you see on the champion select screen.

The Story Behind Sentinel Pyke

Pyke may seem an unlikely Sentinel to take up the oath, but Viego's name is next on his list. Pacified—for now—by the influence of Nagakabouros, the real danger is that he might snap at any moment, killing allies and enemies alike.

Color Options: Sentinel Pyke Chromas

Can't decide on just one look? We don't blame you! Sentinel Pyke comes with 9 different chroma options that let you customize your favorite skin. Whether you want to match your team's color scheme or just feel like switching things up, these variants have got you covered without changing any of the awesome features of the base skin.
