Other than Star Guardians, I haven't been super interested in many Riot events in the past. I just didn't feel the hype that some other people do about them. That was until this event. The Spirit Festival.

The aesthetic is absolutely incredible. I love the spirit world, I love the story behind the spirits, and I can't wait to learn more as I unlock all their stories.

The skins are all top notch, in my opinion (hold Teemo, but his is still pretty good for Teemo standards). I especially love the Thresh, Casseopia, Riven, and Kindred skins. All of them are beautiful to look at.

For once in an event, I want to complete EVERYTHING. Not just because the skins are awesome and rewards look good, but because I want to read the story! I want to learn more about the spirits and become their friends. I feel more connected than ever to all of these champions (and that's saying something for Teemo and Yasuo, who I generally dislike in the game).

Absolutely blew me away this time. I hope events are more like this in the future.

I have seen comments like this a couple places and wanted to clear this up a bit. CarninvalKnight was the LEAD writer on spirit bonds, and he personally wrote Riven and Ahris stories. There was a huge team of writers on spirit bonds though and many different writers wrote different champions stories. Interlocutioner wrote Lillia's, for example and JohnODyin wrote Teemos. Jared (CarnivalKnight) went through and did a pass on all the stories to make sure it all had one cohesive voice at the end, but he didn't write the entire thing, as it's a pretty huge story.
