ComicBook.com's Holiday Gift Guide for League of Legends Fans
With the holiday season now pretty much upon us, League of Legends players are no doubt gearing up [...]
Riot Points (RP)
Let's get this one out of the way first: Riot Points are probably the best and simplest gift a League of Legends player could hope for. Rebranded as "RP" now that Riot Games has multiple confirmed games in the works, this virtual currency is what players use to purchase things in-game. These could vary from skins to loot boxes to all kinds of other types of League loot, and since they're all available for RP, the currency is probably the most important resource a player could ask for. You might feel cheap for going the gift card route, but with multiple increments available to purchase, it's hard to go wrong with RP as a gift.

prevnextK/DA Merch
Whether you play League every day, have taken a break, or even don't play at all anymore, there's still a strong chance you've heard of K/DA. This K-Pop group composed of in-game champions and voiced by real-life stars emerged as a breakout hit last year during League's big World Championship event. Each member of the group got their own in-game skins with physical merch released to match their pop star looks. Snapbacks, hoodies, figures, and many more items are included in Riot's K/DA collection, so you're pretty much guaranteed to find what you want if there's a member of the group you call your favorite.

prevnextTrue Damage Merch
Considering how successful K/DA was, it makes sense that Riot Games would then want to replicate that phenomenon with another virtual music group. Enter True Damage, the hip-hop group that emerged during this year's World Championship event. Composed of five different champions, one of which was Akali who was the star of K/DA, this group had their own song and a performance during the event. The merch that followed included shirts, hoodies, figures, and accessories that sported the looks of the True Damage members, and like the K/DA items, there's a variety of things to pick from

prevnextLeague of Legends: Realms of Runeterra
One of League's newest merch items is also probably the best option for any League player who's looking to have a better understanding of Runeterra and its many inhabitants. The world League takes place in is a vast one, and what better way to explore it than with an illustrated, detailed companion guide for the game? That's exactly what League of Legends: Realms of Runeterra is with the book offering in-depth looks at the various factions around Runeterra and stories of the people and creatures that inhabit them. The book just released this month, and it's also on sale right now through Amazon.

Price: $22.99 (Normally $30)
prevnextUnlocked Statues
League has tons of different series of collectible figures that resemble Funko Pops, but if you're got a strong affinity for a champion or two and want a more detailed collectible, you'll want to check out the game's statues. There aren't as many there as there are for the normal figures, and they've got prices to match their detail, but the value is apparent after you see what they look like. Some of the Unlocked Statues have already been retired while others like ones for Katarina, Vi, and new ones for Riven and Yasuo are all still available until their stocks run out.

prevnextMechs vs. Minions
Before Riot Games put the "S" in "Games" by announcing multiple projects other than League, it actually did have another game on the market. This one that's still available now is called Mechs vs. Minions and is a tabletop game that up to four people can play where they take control of different characters to do battle with armies of minions. Wave 3 is available now from Riot Games, and it comes with all the contents listed below.
- 5 reversible game boards
- 4 command lines (one for each player)
- 4 painted mech miniatures
- Ability and damage decks
- A sand timer
- A bomb-like power source miniature
- 6 metal trackers
- 4 acrylic shards
- 4 dice
- 100 minion miniatures
- Some kind of large object, trying to break through that sealed box...

prevnextCollectible Pin Packs
Many League players (or anyone else who loves a particular game) probably finds themselves in a place where there wouldn't mind sporting something related to the game but don't want to have the logo or characters plastered all over their clothes. One solution to this dilemma is to get one of League's pin packs that immortalize different parts of the game with collectible pins. There are pins for emotes, skins, and events like the World Championship to give players small ways to show off their fandom without making too big of a statement.

Price: $15-$50
prevnextLeague of Legends Onesies
On the complete opposite end of the merch spectrum from tiny enamel pins are the League of Legends onesies which are essentially just full-body representations of how much you love the game. We don't own one ourselves, though we'd imagine that a head-to-toe suit turning you into a League character would be a pretty comfortable experience. There are onesies for champions like Maokai (Meowkai here), Teemo (Beemo), Fizz, and Annie's pet Tibbers, so there are at least a few different options to appeal to different players.

Price: $65-$75
prevnextPlush Figures
And finding themselves somewhere in the middle of the polar ends of the League merch collection are the plush figures that commemorate every part of League from the skins to the events to the minions themselves. These plush collectibles are plentiful and come as big or as small as you want them as well as individually or in packs.

prevnextAnything With Ahri
If you're at a total loss for what to get from the Riot Games Merch store, you could do a lot worse than picking something with Ahri on it. As one of the faces of League, the champion has received tons of in-game skins and all sorts of physical merch to go along with those cosmetics. Even if you don't count the groups she's in like the Star Guardians or K/DA, Ahri has tons of merch that would be sound fits for a League player whether you play as Ahri or not.
