What Champions are freely available, and how can I get them?

Question

My friends and I are started getting into League of Legends. I am enjoying myself enough that I'm considering unlocking a Champion or two.

However, I noticed that some Champions are available online for dirt cheap, with prices such as Liking a Facebook page or Subscribing to a YouTube channel. I would feel like a complete idiot if I purchased one of the Champions that is available for so little expense.

What Champions can I get for cheap, and how?

Answer

Riot technically doesn't offer any champion for free.

What they do offer is skins for certain champions -- and if you don't have the champion when you get a skin for it, you get the champion for free.

That said, there are only two:

  • Facebook Tristana (for liking LoL on facebook)
  • Unchained Alistar (for subscribing to Riot youtube)

Previous giveaways (No longer available):

  • King Rammus for participating in the beta.
  • Nightmare Cho'gath champion and skin free giveaway from Alienware (Now ended)
  • Caitlyn and Arctic skin in Septembers issue of PC Gamer (US only)
  • Kayle and skin for playing 10+ games in season one
  • Corki and ufo skin when Riot won Gamer's Choice awards for Multiplayer, Strategy, and PC Game of the Year
  • Victorious Jarvan Skin for acchieving Gold / Platinum rank in season 1.
