Cover-Credits:
After a hiatus of over three weeks, Riot Games came back into action by releasing LoL Patch 12.6 at the end of March and brought major changes to the game. As we all know, Riot revamped the old systems of Gemstones and Prestige Points and introduced the Mythic Essence and its rotating store. The patch also brought in the changes slated for champions including Rengar and Nidalee, alongside a new rune called the Treasure Hunter.
Without a doubt, one of the most-talked-about things in this patch were the Anima Squad skins, which brandish sleek, high-tech armor, powerful warriors, and cute animals.
Riot initially teased these new skins during the 2022 League of Legends live stream. The champions that have a cosmetic in this skin line are Riven, Miss Fortune, Vayne, Jinx, and Sylas. Additionally, Riven’s original Battle Bunny skin has also been remodeled into Battle Bunny Prime.
Game director Jonathan “Bellissimoh” Belliss said, “Set in a near-future, dying Earth, humanity faces resource shortages and the deadly invasion of an ancient high-tech army. In one final attempt to save themselves, the world bands together to create their only hope for survival. A superpower warrior armed with incredible technology: The Battle Bunny.”
To commemorate the release of these skins, Riot has planned an elaborate event called the Anima Squad 2022 event. Here’s everything you need to know about it.
Anima Squad 2022 Event Missions and Skins
The League of Legends Anima Squad 2022 event features some of the most highly anticipated skins of 2022 which are as follows:
Battle Bat Vayne
Battle Bunny Miss Fortune

Battle Cat Jinx Prestige Edition
Battle Bunny Prime Riven
All the skins are 1350 RP except Battle Bunny Miss Fortune, a legendary skin, which costs 1820 RP. Meanwhile, the Prestige Jinx skin will cost 2000 event tokens.
This event has regular missions, token bank missions, Anima Squad wardrobe missions, an orb mission, milestone missions, and weekly wins.
Anima Squad Quiz
Riot Games has also added an interactive in-game quiz for players to participate in and identify their squad leader. However, the outcome of this quiz does not impact the missions in any way.
Players, upon clicking on the quiz, which is on the home tab on the client, will have to choose one of the four available options as answers to seven questions before finding their assignment details.
The questions are as follows:
What role do you usually play on a team?
How would you start your day of defending humanity?
How would you decorate your personal quarters?
How would you strike down your enemies?
What’s your favorite Anima Squad training course?
Why do you fight?
What do you value most in a leader?
The Anima Squad 2022 Event which began on 31st March will end on 2nd May. Even after the conclusion of the event, players will be able to use their tokens till 9th May. Players can either choose to complete the free missions or buy the Battle Pass, which costs 1650 RP, to get their hands on more missions and rewards.
