More Star Guardians are getting ready to descend to Summoner’s Rift with the next League of Legends patch, and they’re bringing with them some splash arts that look absolutely fantastic.

Soraka, Syndra, Ahri, Miss Fortune, and Ezreal are the newest League of Legends champions to join the Star Guardian squad, the last of which marks the first time that a male champion has been included in the galaxy-protecting lineup. They join the original group of Poppy, Jinx, Janna, Lux, and Lulu to create a 10-champion Star Guardian team.
Like any new skin, all of these new cosmetics come with their own unique splash arts to showcase the skins. The Star Guardian splash arts were amazing the first time around, but with a whole team of dedicated artists including talents such as Esben Rasmussen, Chengwei Pan, Jean Go, Alvin Lee, and Alex Flores, Summoner’s Rift almost isn’t ready for the skins that are set to be released with the next patch.
From the glimpses of the Star Guardian skins that were spotted in the PBE testing grounds, it looks like the work put into the splash arts translates into the in-game models themselves as well. You can see all of the splash arts in the gallery included here to help sway you over to team Star Guardian.
In addition to the splash arts, it also appears that there will be some special loading screen borders that’ll be included with the skins to take your Star Guardian appreciation to new levels. There are no details on how players can earn those special loading boarders at this time, but a Rioter who’s been keeping everyone updated on the Star Guardian details tweeted that more specifics would be on their way soon.
Acquisition details on Star Guardian borders & icons are coming soon!! 🌟🎉 Stay sparkly my friends

Along with the skins, splash arts, and unique borders, a special Star Guardian summoner icon will also be released soon. But even if you’re not planning on picking up any of these new Star Guardian content, you can still take part in the Invasion game mode that’s on its way where players can choose their favorite Star Guardian to fend off waves of creepy, crawly, burrowing enemies.
