With Odyssey mode, Star Guardians embody one of the numerous League of Legends' alternative universes. Inspired by the Magical Girls such as Sailor Moon, Riot Games gave birth to this skin family in May 2015. Next year, Jinx, Lulu, Poppy, and Janna were joining the team.
In 2017, another team of Star Guardians was implemented within the game alongside a new PvE mode where players ad to push back Void creatures using Ahri, Miss Fortune, Soraka, Syndra, and Ezreal only.
Well, a few days ago Riot Games dropped the confirmation that Star Guardians were back into the Rift.
