Skin bio & introduction: – Designated M-2, the “Mecha Malphite” unit is a massive, bipedal fortress capable of turning into a planetary drill — the ultimate defensive mecha when faced with new and powerful kaiju. A single punch from its gauntlets can blow holes through thick titanium sheeting, and have felled countless monsters.

How to get this skin? – The skin is not available for purchase and has been placed in the Legacy Vault (they can still be mystery gifted, and only appear in a champion’s information tab if owned). The vault is usually opened for limited runs and this skin can then be purchased in the Riot Store. In my experience it can be rather long between each opening of the Legacy Vault, hang tight!
