Why is it not worth opening Masterwork Chests in LoL now?
It’s a good idea to leave Masterwork Chests and open them only after the next update.
Currently, a lot is happening in League of Legends and developers are changing not only the Prestige and Mythical skins, but also the reward system. Among other things, Prestige Points and Gems have been removed, and Mythic Essence appeared in their place.
But that’s not all. Only the first of the three phases planned for the next few updates have appeared in the game. For this reason, it’s worth waiting until the next patch to open Masterwork Chests, where it will be more profitable to open them.
Opening in the next update
Probably everyone already knows that the mechanics of Prestige Points and Gems are changed in the League at this point. The whole thing was combined into one currency called Mythic Essence. But that’s not all, and only the first of the three phases planned for the next few weeks has entered the game.

It is in the second phase of League of Legends that the prizes for opening the Perfect Chests are to appear. They are not small at all and with more of them it can pay off well. Especially for those who accumulate a staggering amount of them. Here’s what awaits players in Phase 2 of the Mythic Content Update:
Masterwork milestones are an infinitely repeatable rewards track for opening Masterwork chests. We’re currently planning on the following.
- 5 Chests: 5 Mythic Essence and any tier skin shard
- 10 Chests: 5 Mythic Essence
- 15 Chests: 5 Mythic Essence and 975+ skin shard
- 20 Chests: 5 Mythic Essence
- 25 Chests: 5 Mythic essence and 1350+ skin shard
This means that if someone waits with opening them, they receive small rewards for 5 crates, and for 15, a skin shard worth over 975 RP.
A similar system will work with Capsules 2021:
A showcase milestone track is designed to match the same amount of loot you would’ve had to buy to earn 100 Prestige Points through capsule bundles in 2021, but with a bunch of extra loot rewards attached. These rewards tracks will look something like:
- 1 Capsule: Event icon
- 3 Capsules: Exclusive emote
- 5 Capsules: 975+ skin shard
- 10 Capsules: 1350+ skin shard
- 15 Capsules: 1820+ skin shard and 10 Mythic Essence
- 20 Capsules: Event grab bag and 10 Mythic Essence
- 25 Capsules: Exclusive Prestige skin, icon, and border
