K/DA ALL OUT EVENT -


K/DA made its highly anticipated return with the K/DA ALL OUT event in Legends of Runeterra in November 2020. The event featured new cards, game modes, emotes, and a special K/DA-themed game board.


As part of the event, I designed a limited set of K/DA card backs, defining their overall visual direction, composition, with a bespoke card back framing. The designs were crafted to feel distinct from the default Legends of Runeterra card backs while remaining true to K/DA's bold, stylish, and performance-driven aesthetic.


WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP -


For Legends of Runeterra's inaugural World Championship, I led the creative direction and visual design of the event's commemorative rewards, including three exclusive card backs and the game's first-ever fist-bump emote. Each card back was designed around a distinct concept tailored to a specific audience Twitch viewers, the broader Legends of Runeterra player base, and competitive participants, creating a meaningful recognition and celebration across the community. Working closely with concept artists, illustrators, and an animator, I drove the creative vision of these rewards, crafting a cohesive collection that celebrated the competitive spirit and and capture the excitement of being part of the event.

COSMETIC REWARD FOR GAUNTLET PLAYERS

Gauntlet is Legends of Runeterra’s competitive game mode, where players compete for exclusive rewards. I led the creative direction and concept development of the Gauntlet player icons, cosmetic rewards inspired by the ornate belt buckles earned by Noxian warriors. Partnering with a rendering artist, I guided the project from concept to final render, creating icons that celebrated player achievement while remaining grounded in Runeterra’s visual identity.
