The Spring Festival event is in full swing in *Marvel Rivals*, and it's your chance to snag some fantastic rewards, including a free outfit for the beloved outlaw, Star-Lord. Here’s your guide to securing the Star-Lord skin during NetEase Games’ *Marvel Rivals* Fortune & Colors event.
How To Get the Star-Lord Skin Free in Marvel Rivals’ Fortune & Colors Event
Similar to the Winter Celebration, the key to progressing in the Fortune & Colors event is earning an in-game currency called Danqing, symbolized by a paintbrush and a container of red paint. You can only acquire Danqing by tackling event challenges within the new Clash of Dancing Lions game mode, as well as Quick Play and Competitive matches.
While the base challenges may vary, the event-specific ones remain constant. Here’s a rundown 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 amassed some Danqing, navigate to the event pass to start unlocking various items. To claim the Star-Lord Lion’s Mane skin for free, you'll need to collect 900 Danqing. It might seem daunting, but with the event running until February 14th, you have ample time to complete enough challenges to earn this exclusive 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 resembles Rocket League but with a superhero flair, you can only play as three characters: Star-Lord, Black Widow, and Iron Fist. Each of these heroes comes with a Spring Festival skin, and by playing this mode, you’ll get the opportunity to use them without unlocking them permanently.
If the Clash of Dancing Lions mode entices you to add these skins to your collection, the in-game store offers the Dancing Lions bundle. This bundle includes the Iron Fist Lion’s Gaze skin and the Black Widow Lion’s Heartbeat skin for 2,800 Units, roughly equivalent to just over $20. Considering the individual skins are almost as costly, this bundle is a great value.
And that’s the scoop on how to get the Star-Lord skin for free during the *Marvel Rivals* Fortune & Colors event. For more gaming tips, check out all the Chronoverse Saga Achievements in *Marvel Rivals* Season 1 and how to achieve them.
