The Spring Festival event in *Marvel Rivals* is brimming with opportunities to snag some awesome rewards for free. The highlight of the Fortune & Colors event is undoubtedly the chance to get the free Star-Lord skin, a must-have for fans of the beloved outlaw. Here's your guide on how to secure the Star-Lord skin without spending a dime in NetEase Games’ *Marvel Rivals*.

How To Get the Star-Lord Skin Free in Marvel Rivals’ Fortune & Colors Event

Similar to the Winter Celebration, the Fortune & Colors event requires you to earn a special in-game currency known as Danqing. This currency, symbolized by a paintbrush and a container of red paint, can only be obtained by completing event-specific challenges. These challenges are available in the new game mode, Clash of Dancing Lions, as well as in Quick Play and Competitive matches.

While the base challenges may vary, the event challenges remain constant. Below is a list of the current Fortune & Colors quests:

• Complete 3 Clash of Dancing Lions matches
• Intercept the ball 3 times in a single Clash of Dancing Lions match

Once you've earned Danqing, you can head over to the event pass to unlock various items. To claim the Star-Lord Lion’s Mane skin for free, you'll need to accumulate 900 Danqing. This might seem like a hefty amount, but with the event running until February 14th, you have ample time to tackle enough challenges to secure the skin.

How To Play With the Star-Lord Lion’s Mane Skin Without Unlocking It in Marvel Rivals

For those who aren't keen on grinding but still want to test out the Star-Lord Lion’s Mane skin, there's an alternative. In the Clash of Dancing Lions mode, which blends the excitement of Rocket League with superhero action, only three characters are playable: Star-Lord, Black Widow, and Iron Fist. Each of these heroes comes with a unique Spring Festival skin, allowing you to try them out in this new mode.

If the Clash of Dancing Lions mode wins you over and you decide you want to own all three skins, head to the in-game store. The Dancing Lions bundle, which includes the Iron Fist Lion’s Gaze skin and the Black Widow Lion’s Heartbeat skin, is available for 2,800 Units. Priced at just over $20, this bundle is a great deal, considering the individual skins are nearly as expensive.

That's how you can obtain the Star-Lord skin for free during the *Marvel Rivals* Fortune & Colors event. For more tips and tricks, check out all the Chronoverse Saga Achievements in *Marvel Rivals* Season 1 and how to achieve them.
