Star Guardian Nilah reimagines Nilah as a seasoned magical girl. Her uniform mixes white, teal, and purple with gold trim and pink crystals, while her long violet hair and gemstone tiara sell the veteran-guardian look. The whip glows bright pink and reads clearly in motion, contrasting base Nilah’s deep-blue, water-soaked style.
The VFX swap her water and indigo tones for warm pink and orange starlight with yellow star motifs. Q snaps into a starburst, W wraps her in a soft cosmic veil, E leaves a slim ribbon of stars, and R blooms into a bold celestial swirl that’s easy to read in teamfights. SFX add gentle chimes and twinkles without being loud, so combat feedback stays crisp.
She has a custom recall that leans into the magical girl genre, fitting the Star Guardian theme. Compared to base, the silhouette stays familiar but textures, materials, and color palette feel brighter and cleaner, with polished cloth, crystal trims, and subtle glow on the weapon.
Chromas: Brilliant, Catseye, Emerald, Obsidian, Pearl, Rose Quartz, Ruby, Sapphire, Tanzanite.
This skin is part of Star Guardian Season 4 and nods to classic magical girl anime with heroic poses, glittering effects, and a confident, veteran vibe. There are no unique VO lines, but the sound kit supports the fantasy with airy, cosmic tones.
Release date: July 13, 2022 (Patch 12.13 Star Guardian event). No major updates beyond routine VFX/SFX polish after launch.
