BLG LoL Worlds 2026 Skins: Dual Prestige Reward for MVP knight, Bin's Weibo Poll, and Every Eligible Champion
Only hours after Bilibili Gaming's 3-1 triumph over Gen.G in the Worlds 2026 Grand Final at Brooklyn's Barclays Center, attention across the LPL and global community has already shifted to the traditional post-tournament question: which champions will receive the newly crowned world champions' commemorative skins? Under Riot Games' official eligibility rules, each player must choose a champion they played at least once during the World Championship. From Bin's live fan poll on Weibo to Finals MVP knight's double skin reward and fifty-one combined picks across the starting roster, here is the complete breakdown of every eligible contender.
Riot Games Eligibility Rules and Full BLG Worlds 2026 Champion Pool
To qualify for a Worlds skin in League of Legends, Riot Games enforces one straightforward requirement: the player must have logged at least one official game on that champion during the tournament. Following a historic playoff run in which Bilibili Gaming eliminated all four South Korean LCK representatives, starters Chen "Bin" Ze-Bin, Peng "Xun" Li-Xun, Zhuo "knight" Ding, Park "Viper" Do-hyeon, and Luo "ON" Wen-Jun each boast between eight and eleven eligible options.
On the coaching and reserve side, head coach Yang "Daeny" Dae-in is in line to receive a commemorative ward skin. By contrast, substitute top laner Li "Flandre" Xuan-Jun is unlikely to receive a skin of his own, having not recorded stage appearances during the tournament.
| Player (Role) | Count | Eligible Champions Played at Worlds 2026 | Leading Contenders & Key Highlights |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bin (Top) | 8 | Ambessa, Camille, Gnar, Gwen, Jax, K'Sante, Olaf, Renekton | Weibo poll between Jax (unbeaten 8-0 record in 2026), Gwen (8/2/9 in Game 4 clincher, zero Worlds skins) and Camille |
| Xun (Jungle) | 11 | Jarvan IV, Lee Sin, Maokai, Naafiri, Nocturne, Pantheon, Qiyana, Skarner, Trundle, Vi, Wukong | Naafiri (8/1/9 carry in the 53-minute Game 2 marathon) or Skarner (three-man ultimate against T1 in the semifinals) |
| knight (Mid - MVP) | 11 | Ahri, Akali, Cassiopeia, Galio, LeBlanc, Locke, Orianna, Taliyah, Twisted Fate, Viktor, Yone | 2 skins including a Prestige Edition: Orianna (four-man Shockwave vs HLE), newest assassin Locke, or Twisted Fate (Game 4) |
| Viper (ADC) | 11 | Ashe, Cassiopeia, Corki, Ezreal, Jhin, Kai'Sa, Kalista, Lucian, Taliyah, Yunara, Ziggs | Second skin after EDG Aphelios (2021): Ezreal (6/0/10 vs HLE, 7/1/8 vs T1), Cassiopeia (matching his handle), Ziggs, or Taliyah |
| ON (Support) | 10 | Alistar, Camille, Leona, Lulu, Milio, Nami, Nautilus, Neeko, Renata Glasc, Seraphine | Alistar and Neeko (decisive engages vs Gen.G), Seraphine (tournament-defining ultimate vs T1), or Camille |
Finals MVP knight Earns Two Worlds 2026 Skins Including a Prestige Edition
By outclassing Jeong "Chovy" Ji-hoon in the headline mid-lane clash of the Grand Final, Zhuo "knight" Ding achieved a milestone no domestic player had reached before: he is the first Chinese mid laner in history to win both the Summoner's Cup and the Worlds Finals MVP award. Even in Bilibili Gaming's Game 1 loss against Chovy's Syndra, knight built a 100+ CS "Flame Horizon" lead over his counterpart before taking complete control of the series on Cassiopeia, Viktor, and Twisted Fate.
Because of his Finals MVP crown, knight will receive two separate Worlds 2026 skins, including a Prestige Edition. Out of his eleven eligible champions, three frontrunners stand out:
- Orianna: immortalized by his four-man Shockwave turnaround against Hanwha Life Esports earlier in the knockout stage.
- Locke: the newest assassin added to the roster, whom knight piloted to perfection throughout the tournament and who currently has only one alternate skin in the store.
- Twisted Fate: his signature map-control pick in the deciding fourth game against Gen.G, where his global pressure dismantled the LCK champions.

Bin Opens a Weibo Fan Poll While Xun Weighs Naafiri Against Skarner
In the top lane, Chen "Bin" Ze-Bin finally lifted the Summoner's Cup in his third career Worlds Grand Final appearance. Shortly after leaving the Brooklyn stage, Bin launched a poll on Weibo asking fans to vote between his three preferred picks: Jax, Gwen, and Camille. Jax remains his signature champion and extended Bin's unbeaten streak on the pick in 2026 to eight consecutive victories during the final. However, Gwen is a compelling alternative: Bin delivered a commanding 8/2/9 performance on her in the series-clinching Game 4, and Gwen has yet to receive a Worlds skin in her history.
Jungler Peng "Xun" Li-Xun is spoiled for choice with eleven eligible champions. His standout performance in the Grand Final came on Naafiri, where his 8/1/9 carry display anchored BLG's victory in the longest match of the tournament at 53 minutes. Alternatively, Xun could commemorate his iconic three-man Skarner ultimate against T1 in the semifinals.
A Second Career Worlds Skin for Viper and ON's Playmaking Favorites
Five years after earning his first World Championship ring with EDward Gaming in 2021 and selecting EDG Aphelios, Park "Viper" Do-hyeon will add a second custom Worlds skin to his legacy. Among traditional marksmen, Ezreal is his strongest candidate following dominant scorelines against Hanwha Life Esports (6/0/10) and T1 (7/1/8). Yet Viper also excelled on bot-lane mages throughout the bracket: alongside his finals picks Ziggs and Taliyah, choosing Cassiopeia would be a fitting thematic nod to his "Viper" gamertag.
Alongside him, support Luo "ON" Wen-Jun was a serious Finals MVP contender in his own right. His ten eligible champions include the Alistar and Neeko picks with which he repeatedly caught Gen.G off guard in Brooklyn, as well as Seraphine, responsible for his multi-man "Encore" ultimate against T1 in the semifinals. For a more tongue-in-cheek tribute, ON could even select Camille after becoming the first player in Worlds history to die eight or more times in a Finals game and still walk away with the win.
My Field Notes
Reading through the tactical notes Maëlle "Kaelen" left on our desk right after the Brooklyn final, one detail immediately jumps off the page: the sheer draft versatility that allowed Bilibili Gaming to dismantle all four LCK contenders is mirrored in this fifty-one-champion pool. Personally, the tug-of-war between Jax and Gwen in Bin's Weibo poll captures the eternal dilemma of Worlds skins: do you immortalize the lifelong signature pick that went 8-0 this year, or grant a long-overdue first Worlds skin to the champion that sealed Game 4? And if knight pairs Orianna with the newest assassin Locke across his dual MVP Prestige reward, this 2026 BLG line could easily become one of the most sought-after collections in LPL history.
