The Spring Festival is in full swing in *Marvel Rivals*, bringing with it a host of rewards you can snag for free. The highlight of the Fortune & Colors event? A free outfit for the beloved outlaw, Star-Lord. Here's your guide on how to claim the Star-Lord skin for free in NetEase Games' *Marvel Rivals*.
How To Get the Star-Lord Skin Free in Marvel Rivals’ Fortune & Colors Event
Just like during the Winter Celebration, players need to collect an in-game currency to participate in the Fortune & Colors event. This currency, called Danqing, is represented by a paintbrush and a container of red paint. The only way to earn Danqing is by completing event challenges in the new game mode, Clash of Dancing Lions, as well as in Quick Play and Competitive.
While the base challenges may vary, the event-specific ones remain constant. Below is a list of the Fortune & Colors quests released so far:
- Complete 3 Clash of Dancing Lions matches
- Intercept the ball 3 times in a single Clash of Dancing Lions match
Once you've accumulated some Danqing, you can navigate to the event pass and start unlocking various items. To secure the Star-Lord Lion’s Mane skin for free, you'll need 900 Danqing. It might seem like a lot, but with the event running until February 14th, there's ample time to complete enough challenges to earn the skin.

How To Play With the Star-Lord Lion’s Mane Skin Without Unlocking It in Marvel Rivals
If grinding isn't your thing but you're still eager to try out the Star-Lord Lion’s Mane skin, there's a workaround. In the Clash of Dancing Lions mode, which plays similarly to Rocket League but with a superhero flair, players can only select from three characters – Star-Lord, Black Widow, and Iron Fist. All three come equipped with Spring Festival skins, and by playing this mode, you'll get the chance to test them out.
If Clash of Dancing Lions wins you over and you decide you want to add all three skins to your collection, head to the in-game store. The Dancing Lions bundle includes the Iron Fist Lion’s Gaze skin and the Black Widow Lion’s Heartbeat skin for 2,800 Units, which is just over $20. Considering the individual skins are priced similarly, this bundle offers a great value.
And that’s how you can get the Star-Lord skin for free in *Marvel Rivals*‘ Fortune & Colors event. For those looking for more achievements, here are all the Chronoverse Saga Achievements in *Marvel Rivals* Season 1 and how to unlock them.
