As Riot’s Spirit Blossom event continues across League of Legends, Teamfight Tactics, and Legends of Runeterra, the studio is giving artists the chance to win some exclusive Spirit Blossom-themed loot.
Announced on the League of Legends website, the new competition challenges artists to draw a one-page manga based around the Kin of the Stained Blade anime-style cinematic.
To enter, artists just need to post their submissions to Twitter, making sure to tag @UK_LoL and use the hashtag #SpiritBlossomManga. Despite the use of the UK Twitter handle, the competition is open to artists from around the world.
The prize pool includes both physical and in-game items, including an exclusive merch set with a Spirit Blossom Haori, ramen bowl and pin pack.
Aspiring video game artists may be more interested in the top prize, however, which involves a one on one video call with Riot’s lead concept artist Gem Lim. A Riot artist since 2012, Lim led the art design for the Spirit Blossom event’s unique, narrative-heavy Spirit Bonds feature.
The deadline for the competition is August 17, with winners to be announced on August 24, the last day of the month-long Spirit Blossom event.
GameSpot may get a commission from retail offers.
