Another cool aspect of the Bilgewater update is all the new skins. Riot released several champion skins, including Rouge Admiral Garen, Sea Hunter Aatrox, Cutpurse Twisted Fate, and Cutthroat Graves. A pirate skin for Quinn was announced as well, but it is unavailable for now. Also, riot released a variety of pirate ward skins and skin bundles for players who want to show off their support for Bilgewater.

As mentioned above, the ARAM map got a makeover too. The map now features lush green bushes, pirate music, and new textures that resemble a pirate hideout. It’s a great change from the original frozen map. Plus, players can unlock exclusive Bilgewater icons if they earn achievements during ARAM matches.
