DRX has won the 2022 League of Legends World Championship, taking T1 to a 6-game finals. Now that it's all over it's time we think about the upcoming Worlds skins we could receive.
With the League of Legends World Championship coming to a close we’ve got our final winner of the entire event. DRX, the underdog team has managed to take down the Goliath that is T1 and earn their name on the brand-new Summoner’s Cup.
But now that we’ve come this far, watched some of the best World Championship action we’ve ever seen and got to witness a LoL Worlds final for the ages, it’s time to think about in-game cosmetics and which champion skins we could be getting.
Criteria for LoL World Championship Skins
Alright, so first of all we have to go over the criteria for choosing a World Championship skin. The champion skin has to be for a champion that was played by the player at the event. Also, the player has to have played in at least two meaningful games at the World Championship as well.
Riot is also able to ask a player to choose a different champion, if that champion already has a skin from the team. A total of six champions can receive skins. In 2016 and 2017 there were six skins made.
LoL World Championship Skin Changes for 2023
In 2023 Riot is going to make a few small changes to the skins. We’re going to get a Worlds showcase event, but that’s not all. We’re also going to be getting a prestige skin for one of the champions. How Riot will choose which champion and player get the prestige has not been revealed yet.

Who Will Receive the World Championship Prestige Skin?
There are two options we see for the upcoming prestige skin. Either Riot picks the skin for the player that managed to earn the MVP title, or they go for the nostalgia factor and just give the damn thing to Deft. The man has been trying his best for 10-years and finally won a World Championship title.
As mentioned though, it hasn’t been revealed yet, but we’re putting our money on either Kingen or Deft receiving the Prestige skin for their champions. Which one would you prefer though?
