Hey Honor of Kings players, the new rewards are here, and there’s more to them than meets the eye. Epic skins, free trials—let’s break down what’s up, and how to make the most of it.
Reward 1: Epic Skin Selection Chest – Worth the Grind
(1) What’s in the Chest?
Knock out in-game quests (win 5 matches, assist 20 teammates, log in 3 days) and you’ll score a chest with 5 epic skins to pick from. Each isn’t just a look—they mix style with actual gameplay perks.
(2) Hero Breakdown: Skins & Skills
Dragon of Artistry (Da Qiao): Her skills get golden dragon patterns. Her “Teleport” (Skill 2) leaves a trail of glistening scales—super helpful for guiding teammates to safety. Perfect if you love coordinating plays.
Ballerina (Erin): A graceful mage—her ultimate “Swan Song” bursts into rose petals that stun enemies. The animations make timing easy: “You just know when to cast,” one player said.
Feline Whisperer (Mai Shiranui): This SNK hero’s skin leans into her fox vibe. Her dash (Skill 1) leaves paw prints, and her fire hits harder. Great for hit-and-run—sneak in, deal damage, bolt out.
Asura (Ukyo Tachibana): A demonic assassin. His “Slash Barrage” (Skill 3) leaves a crimson afterimage, confusing foes. High risk, high reward—nail his combos, and you’ll wreck skirmishes.
Firefly Maiden (Nakoruru): Ranged attacker with arrows that glow like fireflies. Charges faster here, so more crits. Ideal for picking off enemies from afar.
Reward 2: Free Skin Weekend – Test Before You Buy
(1) Dates & Highlights
July 11-14, over 150 skins go free—including fan faves like Dragon Series: “Dragon Knight Arthur” and “Azure Dragon Zhao Yun.” Arthur’s skin even gives a 10% shield during trials, so you feel his tank potential.
(2) Why This Matters
Newbies can try pricey skins before buying; vets can mess with heroes they rarely play. “Tried Dragon Zhao Yun—his ultimate feels different with the skin’s animation,” a Redditor posted. “Bought it right after.”
Bonus: Recent Hero Adjustments
Devs quietly buffed Lunox this week: her Skill 2 cooldown’s down by 1 second, making her better in late-game fights. “She’s no longer a ‘late bloomer’—can carry mid-game now,” says streamer “HOK_Main.” Pair her with Da Qiao’s teleport? Deadly.
Community Buzz
Forums are full of hacks: “Do the ‘20 assists’ task in ARAM—it’s faster!” Others argue over the best chest pick: “Mai’s skin is a must for SNK fans” vs. “Da Qiao’s dragon skin is meta for ranked.”
Final Thoughts
This event’s not just about free stuff—it’s about trying new playstyles. Whether you’re after Da Qiao’s dragon or testing Zhao Yun’s scales, there’s something to reignite your HOK spark. Dive in, experiment, maybe find your new main.
