More info on Shopkeeper and Holiday Nashor icons

Posted on at 10:39 AM by Moobeat
Over on reddit, Hippalus dropped off some info regarding when the next ( and final ) batch of Holiday Nashor icons will be distributed and finally revealing how players can earn the Shopkeeper icon!
"The Snowdown behavior data is being analyzed by the Player Behavior team and the final batch of Santa Baron icons will be granted when that is complete (next week at the latest). They are more concerned with identifying the right players than with getting them out quickly.

The Shopkeeper icon will then be granted to anyone who earned at least 4 of the other icons (for playing a premade, gifting RP, gifting a champion, gifting a skin, and/or behavior).

Thank you for asking politely!"
While the 2012 Snowdown Showdown event is now OVER ( meaning the rest of the icons are no longer obtainable ), you can check out this post for more info on how each icon was obtained.

    Yep, the way they are handing those out does not make any sense. I have an acquaintance who is a fairly toxic player who somehow managed to get one, I, on the other hand have played as sportsmanlike as I think possible and have yet to earn the icon.

    I always try to help, honour those who truly deserve it and always try
    to keep everything cheerfull. A friend of mine is a bit egostruck. He
    keeps calling everybody a noob and always reports his team for " failing
    at games".

    He got the Icon and I didnt :P

    Maybe the system doesn't like kiss-asses? Or maybe it dislikes the belittling of the word "love"?


    ... in all seriousness, he said they haven't released the final batch yet.

    Maybe you get a lot of ''fake'' reports, like intentionally feeding and assisting enemy team when you play badly which leads your total number of reports to be higher than the toxic player? Even though you've never been banned/warned. Just speculating though.

    same with me, a friend of mine, who leaves game often just because I has to eat (I mean dont even start a match when you know you have to eat in half an hour) got the icon, while I am someone who's always very soprtman like, I honer people when they do, I tell people what they can do better (even the enemy) and still I dont have one...

    this is just weird, but I gues I can live with out :(

  23. JixsonJanuary 9, 2013 at 12:31 PM

    They have not been given out yet I am guessing. Probably will come out during the last wave of Nashor icons.


    I shall be obtaining it, as I already have the rest of them.

    I don't really think it's about honoring people who honor you. That's not the point of honor at all.

  30. NotSarcasmJanuary 9, 2013 at 1:09 PM

    Well, I try my hardest to be nice in games but you never know with riot. Maybe by being so nice, I'm actually being rude by not telling people how bad they are and letting live in the fantasy that they are a good player no matter how fast they lose their lane or bait the entire team to their deaths.

    It's mostly like the honor banners. You probably play very few games and mostly with your friends.

  33. Alex ThreeJanuary 9, 2013 at 1:51 PM

    I've never been banned or warned, and I have the honourable opponent ribbon. But no icon yet.. I'll be really confused if that's not good enough, because I have some friends who don't even have ribbons and are jerks and they've got it.

    So if we get the Santa Baron Icon AFTER the week's end, and we have 3 Icons now (making the newest santa baron a 4th) Will we get the Shopkeeper Icon then?

    Seems like everyone has that friend who rages constantly, got the icon. I really wanna know what formula they used to give the icon out.

    yup same here my friend that's an ass flame almost every game (yea I'm avoiding playing with him, but that's not always easy as he's my good friend, but in game he's an asshole :P) and he got Baron icon first day :P ehh :P

  39. Dare EvansJanuary 9, 2013 at 4:18 PM

    Was wondering about this. Like others, I'm a little confused at how I don't have the Baron one while my delinquent friends do, but, hopefully I get it during this wave.

    This baron icon is so lame, ive seen so many idiots with it that i dont want to have it. Its not unique at all. Im sure shopkeeper icon will be more rare that baron icon. If flamers or players who dont play at all are rewarded with this so gj riot.

  46. CalenordJanuary 11, 2013 at 10:38 AM

    That's probably the case for myself as well. Hopefully the last batch of Xmas Barons will be sorted out in a fairer and smarter way than the first.
