As we approach the kickoff of Worlds 2021, we’ve prepared some information on how we’re updating watch rewards. Starting with the Play-In stage, you’ll be able to obtain rewards in different ways:
- Through Watch Rewards
- Through Drops
- And by [playing Pick’em][1]
With each, you’ll have a chance to obtain Hextech Chests, Esports Capsules, or the new **Worlds Rewards Capsule!**
Introducing the Worlds Rewards Capsule
--------------------------------------
Long are the days where you missed a specific drop with the emote you wanted. Same for the 20 copies of Juicy! you probably obtained this year (for which we’ll do a prestige edition - soon).
When opening a **Worlds Rewards Capsule,** you will get one item at random from the following list:
- Worlds-exclusive Emotes and Icons for 2021 (excluding team logos)
- Esports Capsule
- Hextech Chest & Key

If you already have any of the emotes/icons within the capsule: worry not! You’ll be able to disenchant them for blue/orange essence.
Drops
-----
We're excited to bring back Drops for Worlds 2021 as we celebrate the best teams in each league! Log in to lolesports.com and watch live Worlds matches for a chance to grab Worlds Rewards Capsules and many more rewards provided by our partners.
When logged in on LoLEsports.com with your Riot account, you will have the opportunity to get a drop when it happens. Mind you: drops are random, can happen at any time of the day, and are connected to certain moments of the tournament. For example:
- Pentakill: Drop is guaranteed to happen
- Stolen objective: A drop might happen, but isn’t guaranteed
- Multi-kill: A drop might happen, but isn’t guaranteed
While rewards might differ region by region depending on certain rules and regulations, a majority of this year’s drops will be global or to the majority of the audience watching at that point. Stay tuned on @LoLEsports to always be up to date on new rewards for your region.
And if you want to do a mic-check with drops, why don’t you join us for these moments - remember to be on the stream at least 5 minutes before these moments to make sure you don’t miss them:
**Oh...** *and one more thing: Shocked Teemo will appear as last Drop during Worlds finals, so make sure to watch the finals on November 6!*
As a reminder - Drops are available only for Riot regions at this stage.
Watch Missions
--------------
Another way to obtain Capsules and more is through Watch missions:
The missions will appear in the League Client just in time for Worlds Day 1. You’ll be able to start completing missions when Worlds 2021 kicks off at 11 a.m. GMT (4 a.m. PST, 1 p.m. CEST, 7 p.m. CST, 8 p.m. KST) on October 5.
Remember to watch your games through LoLEsports.com when logged in with your Riot account. LoLEsports.com Watch Missions are available only for Riot regions at this stage.

FAQs
----
**How do I know if I’m set up for Drops?**
Watch from LoLEsports.com and Login with your Riot ID. On the player page you’ll notice a green checkmark that will let you know if everything is working.
**When and where can I get Drops?**
Each day during the tournament, logged in viewers on lolesports.com who are watching the live broadcast may have a chance to get a loot drop from Riot or one of our partners.
Drops only happen during the live broadcast, not VODs, so make sure you’re logged in and opted-in for Drops and Rewards to participate!
**Where do I redeem my Drops?**
Each drop card will include information about how to redeem it. In-game items will usually be delivered directly to your account within 24 hours. If you win a merch item, Riot Support will contact you within 30 days to arrange delivery.
**How can I check if I’ve received Drops?**
Simply log in on lolesports.com with your RiotID and go to the Rewards tab to check on your drops.
**Can I get Drops by watching VODs?**
Unfortunately, drops are not available on VODs.
**Can I receive Drops while watching in full-screen?**
Yes! As long as you are watching on lolesports.com and logged into your Riot account, you will receive drops.
**Do I need to use a specific browser?**
For the best watching experience, we recommend using Firefox, Chrome, or Edge browsers. Also, be sure to disable any ad blocker software you use to ensure you don’t miss any drops. If you’re using Firefox, please remember to disable the Enhanced Tracking Protection feature.
**Is there a limitation on which Drops I can get?**
Most drops are available globally, but some can be region-blocked if they're dedicated to a specific country, region or partner. If you have a Riot account, you will be able to receive drops; however, at this time, Tencent and Garena accounts aren't supported.
**I saw other viewers receiving Drops, but I didn’t – what happened?**
Some drops have a limited number of rewards, while others are given to everyone watching. The quantities depend on the reward, so cross your fingers that you get lucky!
**Why did I receive a different reward from another viewer?**
Some drops have multiple rarity tiers. A higher rarity tier usually means a better reward – for example, some viewers may receive one specific ingame item, whereas other lucky viewers may get another in-game item. Pay attention to the rarity of the card and good luck!
**Why did a friend in another region get a different drop than me?**
Drops look and content might sometimes differ by region due to local agreements, laws, and regulations. While we’re making sure your Riot region isn’t a factor in getting drops, sometimes the content can change.
**Something went wrong with my Drop – what should I do?**
First, don’t panic! Nothing is lost! Make sure that you’re logged in on lolesports.com with your Riot Account. Ensure that you have a green tick on your live player.
**I have other questions about the Worlds 2021 event!**
