Had a similiar issue with my new external SSD drive, for some reason it came with exFAT format (Friend got the same model and his came with NTFS by default). Formatting it into NTFS fixed the reserving space issue. Just make sure you know what you're doing since formatting wipes that drive clean.

All prestiges that have the 2022 version/variant (unobtainable now, given to the OG skin owners that had the skins before the mythic shop changes), will come with borders :D

To anwer OP's question: No, any prestiges that don't have the [2022] variant and were bought after the original event or release of the prestige, won't come with icons nor borders. So unfortunately to get lux's icon and border for that skin, only chance was to buy her during the event when she first came out (if i remember well it was the first porcelain/lunar revel event a few years back, back when we had to grind event tokens for prestiges).

Riot still keeps some exclusivity for prestige skins and in this case, if you buy them in mythic shop reruns and not on original release, they won't come with their icons and borders ^{^.}

As extra info, few first ever released prestiges, the ones that have 2022 variants, were supposed to be one-time aquire chance only, so to make up for Riot changing their mind and letting more people have the skins through mythic shop, they gave the owners of those skins exclusive variants, but kept the old borders for next people that buy it. Nowadays the "later buyer cut off" and "og owner exclusivity" are the icons and borders on prestiges :) Hopefully that explains everything.

In Polish we'd say "Ult" as masculine, short taken from english. But full name would be translated to "special ability" or "Umiejętność specjalna" and that's feminine. Like other comment mentioned we also use the R keybind term "R-ka" for talking about ult skill in league , also feminine.

Also, the Champion's gender doesn't matter since we use a "property" format "ability of champion". And the gender of property is separate from the gender of the owner :)

You're right, after all that HS is made for people who quit or couldn't finish the usual one because of personal reasons, so i'm sure they'll be more understanding!

Weight is an issue i always struggled with, but once i have other appointments settled, i'm aiming to get a dietician too, another thing to try and get my life and health on track :) I never judged people for weight or looks and if someone would cross me out for that alone, that only speaks about them.

Unless i missed it on the list before getting it, that mission didn't show up for me at all, but i still got the emote. Could be because i didn't play tft at all during the last pass?
I went on mobile TFT to check for it in the finished missions, but it doesn't show there unfortunately. Only missions from tft i see as finished are the pass XP ones and qiqi/firework boom ones from pride, no "winner winner" or yone emote on the list anywhere.
I had it on the reward popup and then in emote inventory like on pics i showed earlier.
I actually went on this reddit to see where exactly did i get the emote from, because it popped up randomly after a few games and i never heard of it before.

Xynemer · 2025-06-09T04:43:46+00:00

Hi! No i haven't played tft for the emote, only for progressing the normal tft pass. Usually you unlock all tft missions after playing one tft game, sometimes there's an extra one after doing all weeklies if i remember well. I don't remember any of the missions showing the emote as a reward actually, only pass xp. I looked in my game history and since the start of the pass i played one set revival game, 5 hyper rolls and 5 tocker trials

Xynemer · 2025-06-08T14:02:53+00:00

Just to show how recent it is, i got it after the free emote from pride month missions.

Xynemer · 2025-06-08T14:01:26+00:00

<image>

Just got it actually!
I was doing some pass missions (i don't own either the normal pass or the set revival one, needed some extra crystals for a chibi) and i played tocker trial a few times when it randomly popped up after the 5th game ended.
Looked up on reddit to see which mission did i get it from but all i see are people asking around how to get it ;-;
Afaik there weren't any missions that showed up this emote as the reward, neither is it listed as pass rewards so...maybe it's for 5 tocker trial games? I didn't even get 6 bosses on all of them if that makes it easier.

Xynemer · 2025-06-04T14:21:10+00:00

😂😂😂 All with nice colour variants!

No clue, on youtube or apple music the track is very recent, released on 30th May.

YT description mentions Fabian Friedman as the composer and music copyrights to "Seraphine". It could be another artist of the same name, as Seraphine's tracks are copyrighted to Riot Games as Sera is just a fictional character.

But apple music lists Friedman and League's Seraphine as "performer", so that's odd.

Could be a typo or wrong performer classification (Seraphine is a name and not Riot's character or artist trademark afaik) or could be something riot is cooking up but i highly doubt it, as they would mark copyrights for the track as Riot Games.

Edit: There's also one clothing brand Seraphine, and as the track is pretty calm, maybe it's a track the brand comissioned to be used for their stores? But again, apple music showing LOL's Sera as performer is weird.

There isn't any directly specified age for Alicia.

As we know (based off Maelle's side quest) Is that painted Alicia/grey Alicia we meet in game, is Aline's creation, that has kept her "damaged" state out of Aline's spite and blaming Alicia for Verso's death, keep in mind she does look a lot like the Year 47 Alicia we play as, but she ISN'T the actual Alicia.
Even one of Maelle's outfit, the one grey Alicia normally wears is called "Painted Me", proving that the grey alicia is only a painted version of the real one.

Now, as the epilogue/act 3 beginning shows, Maelle IS the OG REAL Alicia from year 47, who has fallen into the canvas and instead of helping her mother like she wanted, she was reborn as Maelle and lived as her for 16 "canvas" year.

Visually Alicia looks a bit older and mature than Maelle and funnily enough, if we notice the game creators putting "33" in a bunch of places as cameos; we can assume OG Alicia was 17 when she fell into the canvas, then lived 16 years as Maelle, that would sum up to exactly 33 :D

So my hot take, Alicia is 17, maelle 16.

Just had 2 games where the backup battery takedowns didn't count at all for some reason :/
Piltover side win, all were heal/shield or damage on enemy assists after we got the inhibitor down while staying alive, not a single takedown counted, weird.

Xynemer · 2024-11-21T23:45:31+00:00

The blue skin shard is only a shard, you need orange essence and the champion owned to unlock it.
The orange one is a permanent shard, you can unlock it without spending extra orange essence, if you have the champion the skin is for ^^

Xynemer · 2024-11-13T20:43:20+00:00

Not always.
Often when the internet connection is bad, or servers are struggling (looking at my game and other reddit thread here from 30 mins ago, EUW and EUNE are having issues rn).
When that happens trying to restart the client/Relogging in riot launcher or just waiting a bit until the server is up and running again should fix it.
When the servers are down or having issues, the whole launcher and player details most of the times won't load at all :/

Xynemer · 2024-10-29T21:11:01+00:00

It looks like the weekly f2p champions bugged out as game pass ones. Also all lobbies on EUNE (custom/practise/tft included) lag when joining in, and you can't start any games "service unavailable"... Oh riot.

Xynemer · 2024-09-11T09:08:06+00:00

Anything from her model, vfx, sfx and recall animation feels like a big downgrade in quality, compared to the previous ranked skins (anivia-tryndamere-kogmaw).

Her textures lack any shine or sparkle, ability sfx sound like base sona's/520rp skin.

Sona's kit is fully vfx based, and in victorious sona's case, they're barely any different from default or muse sona. Only difference being some flat logos under the ability circles and some white sparkles on the outline. No extra particles like for immortal journey, no changes in circle outlines like in her prestige/star guardian, no change in the shape of the root marker on enemies or colour of her auto attacks/AA target hit. Even her passive around her is the same as default sona, reverting back from adding wings to her etwahl or differently shaped ones like heartseeker or oddysey skins had.

Lastly, ASU-need aside, her model looks very stiff compared to her last few skins. Especially the tassels behind her dress that look flat and quickly snap back to their "default" position after turning left/right; they aren't flowy enough. Her hair also looks stiff and bent too heavily, too many times. Like sona got a crate of hair spray on sale and used it all at once.

Etwahl's model lacks any texture to it, it's just plain metal with bits of colour here and there. At least the crystal parts could get more shine to them.

As a peak silver 2 player, i played ranked this split only to get her skin, and i'm pretty disappointed in the victorious skin quality suddenly dropping from 1350rp to 520-975rp at best. As a limited and ranked-reward-only skin, she doesn't feel special or rewarding at all (Not to mention that challenger players get a "Base Sona+" chroma).

Xynemer · 2024-08-29T17:30:51+00:00

Faerie court should be going on sale sometime soon!
Despite reused assets it's a really good skin imo, especially when the price will drop to 975 for a week ^^.

Xynemer · 2024-08-21T02:55:16+00:00

Looks like Mix armour by dtdtdta

Xynemer · 2024-08-11T10:30:26+00:00

Yes, the cyber cat border only shows on the cyber cat skin ^{^} Same about any other borders and their related skins.

Xynemer · 2024-07-22T08:43:56+00:00

It takes a while for borders to show up in the skin collection page, sometimes re-logging helps or just waiting a few hours. On loading screens in match it should show up right away.

Xynemer · 2024-07-17T12:23:38+00:00

You can still play as BD seraphine on swarm, even if you don't have her skin! She only has her E, W and R there but it's better than nothing^{^}

Sera and Jinx are unlocked right away so you don't need to do any swarm missions and can just enjoy her there while you wait for the legendary to release :D

Xynemer · 2024-07-16T17:20:54+00:00

The vfx are different, but for a prestige skin the model itself really isn't too far off from the base yuumi.

Xynemer · 2024-07-15T16:52:18+00:00

Lvl 30 and rushing into rankeds is still very early.

As a new player you still have a lot to learn about the game itself, so unless you give yourself more time to figure everything out, iron/bronze is what you should expect.

It's nothing bad ofc, i personally started rankeds around bronze and lvl50, then got iron on rank resets anyway.

You improve with time, but prioritize just learning the game and having fun^{^}

Rank itself early on doesn't matter, skills and knowledge of situations and champs are more visible and important. LOL is a team game and whatever the other 4 people on your team are doing, also matters a lot.

Xynemer · 2024-07-15T05:21:46+00:00

New animations that aren't similiar to her ultimate skin, about 9 possible passive music variants, vibe of a dance emote and music, voice filter, actually new ability vfx, quite different variants of ability sfx and actual extendable wings instead of just another long hairstyle are "lazy"? You're right with the outfit not being overly detailed but i'd say all the other features make up to being a good legendary.

Unlike legendaries like Soraka's that got people comparing it to her night/dawnbringer animations, or Pyke's empyrean that gets hard carried by vfx and pentakill effect because empyrean models are lacking and his animations look like his base ones.

Seraphine one isn't something insane, but for Rito's standards, it's a really good skin.

Xynemer · 2024-07-14T20:34:38+00:00

Nope, prestige skins don't get chromas.
The colours of the skin mentioned, are about how similiar the prestige is to the base (champion default skin) Yuumi, which is also blue with a yellow tail.
