Everything You Need to Know About Traditional Karma

The Basics

Looking to spice up your games with a killer new look for Karma? Let's dive into everything you need to know about Traditional Karma, a unique skin for Karma. This skin is all about giving your favorite champion a fresh new look!

Quick Facts

Price: 975 RP

Released: 2013-03-29

Rarity: Common

Available: Legacy

Since its release on 2013-03-29, 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

Let's talk about what makes Traditional Karma worth your RP. At 975 RP, you're getting a relatively cheap skin with decent quality visuals, sometimes even some new animations or effects.

Here's what you get with Traditional Karma: ✓ Brand new visual effects that add serious flair to your abilities ✓ A completely new voice that transforms the champion's personality

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

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 Traditional Karma?

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

When you hear Traditional Karma in game, you're listening to the work of voice actor Danielle McRae, who brings real personality to the lines.

That splash art that caught your eye? It came from the tablet of Jessica 'OwleyCat' Oyhenart, one of Riot's talented artists who really captured the essence of Traditional Karma.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I get Traditional Karma if it's not in the store?

Keep an eye on the League client for events like Lunar Revel, Snowdown, or special champion spotlights when legacy skins often return.

Can I gift Traditional Karma to a friend?

When Traditional Karma becomes temporarily available during special events, you can gift it to friends who have been on your friends list for at least 24 hours. Since this is a legacy skin, gifting it is a special surprise that not everyone will have access to.

How does Traditional Karma compare to other Karma skins?

Traditional Karma offers a common tier experience at 975 RP, making it more affordable than other skins for Karma. Unlike some basic Karma skins, this one includes custom visual effects that really change how your abilities look in game. For a detailed comparison with all other Karma skins, check out our Karma page that lists all skins.

When does Traditional Karma go on sale?

Since Traditional Karma is a legacy skin, it doesn't follow the regular sale schedule. Instead, watch for special events when legacy vaults open, usually at holidays or during champion updates. When available again, it might be at full price or occasionally discounted as part of a bundle.
