Quick Facts

Price: 1350 RP

Released: 2018-12-06

Rarity: Epic

Available: Legacy

Since its release on 2018-12-06, this Epic 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

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

Here's what you get with Snow Man Yi Master Yi: ✓ Brand new visual effects that add serious flair to your abilities ✓ Fresh animations that make Master Yi 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, Snow Man Yi Master Yi comes with 5 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.
