New Champion Skins
Dark Star Thresh
For his /laugh emote, Dark Star Thresh pokes his lantern and displays a picture of various space based champions and skins - Astronaut Teemo and Nautilus, Bard, Aurelion Sol, Taric and Lucian.
For this /joke, Dark Star Thresh... erm... acquires a pet.
Above picture shows his lantern changing VFX after gathering 100 souls!
Dark Star Thresh changes colors to red when he lands a hook.
Here's Dark Star Thresh's voiceover, clocking it at just over 16 minutes of new lines and special interactions:
Here's Galetta with a bugs & feedback thread on Dark Star Thresh:
"There's something waiting for you beyond the stars.....
Dark Star Thresh includes:
- All new model and textures!
- Textures change when you successfully hook a target!
- All new particles! (Dark matter, Black holes, Cosmic energy!)
- Lantern evolves after you gather 100 souls!

Dark Star Varus
Here's Riot KateyKhaos with a bugs & feedback thread on Dark Star Varus:"Dark Star Varus is a corrupted warrior pulled into Dark Star Thresh's twisted orbit, Dark Star Varus extinguishes worlds in the name of a greater cosmic horror.
During production, we liked to imagine this version of Varus as what he would have turned into when corrupted by Dark Star Thresh!
Dark Star Varus is set to be 1350 RP*.
- Completely new model! (inorganic space terror!)
- Completely new VFX! (dark space and cosmos, and a fancy new cape!)
- Completely new SFX! (sinister space sounds!)
- New recall! (gravitational fields!)
