New High Noon skins announced for these LoL champions

New High Noon skins have been announced for League of Legends, bringing the wild west aesthetic to even more LoL champions.

The gothic High Noon skin line is returning, bringing the dark, firey aesthetic of this alternate universe to a new range of playable characters. The new High Noon skins include a Legendary skin for Leona and a Prestige Edition skin for Talon. Here are all the new High Noon skins and when you can expect to see them on Summoner’s Rift.

Which champions are getting new High Noon skins?

The champions getting new High Noon skins are Katarina, Mordekaiser, Varus, Talon, and Leona. High Noon Leona is a step above the other skins as a Legendary skin, including more unique effects and voice lines. Talon is this event’s recipient of a Prestige option, getting a Mythic upgrade for his High Noon skin for players to flex on Summoner’s Rift.

The High Noon skins will likely be made available for 1,350 Riot Points each, with the Legendary High Noon Leona matching similar cosmetics in the 1,820 Riot Point range. The High Noon universe has consistently been a hit with League of Legends fans, and Riot has expanded it even further with new lore for this wave of skin releases.

Seems like a good time for a heist… 🐎

A short story featuring the angelically-corrupted demon that is Talon in this alternate universe was released alongside the new LoL skins. The story, titled “The Stranger on the Road”, follows a demonic Talon who has been corrupted by angelic blood to have a conscience that pains his dark form. It’s a fun fantasy twist on the classic anti-hero cowboy story, and one of the few pieces of fiction Talon has been given.

I want to tell you a little bit about High Noon Mordekaiser. There are three versions of the "E" ability. Normal, Enemy View, and Ally View. I used the angelic version of High Noon for the Morde ally#LeagueOfLegends pic.twitter.com/g3rFQ7FQOA

Mordekaiser’s High Noon look has been a particular hit among fans, casting the undying conqueror as the hellish owner of the railway. Mordekaiser’s armor and weapon have been modified to fit the dark metal of antique trains, with his mace having an entire cow-catcher attached to its front. The skin offers different effects for the Mordekaiser player, his allies, and his enemies.
