Shop check time. Maximilien’s Vault is open again, and it’s your chance to grab a hero skin without paying full price. It pops up now and then throughout the season, and this visit lasts 3 days.

You’ll find it under Shop, then Maximilien’s Vault. Inside are five cards, and each one is a gamble. Behind it sits a discount on a skin for a hero you play a lot, anywhere from 15% to 60% off. Some draws will make your day, and some will feel like a polite insult.

Because the deals are built around your own play, my Vault will look nothing like yours. That’s half the fun, and it also means a skin you’ve been eyeing could land at a very friendly price.

Fun fact for the lore nerds: when the Vault first launched in Season 14 it was a bit of a mess. Some players scored skins for free thanks to a 100% discount glitch, others bought cards with nothing in them, and a few were handed a 0% discount. It behaves itself now. Maximilien’s voice lines are also locked behind special encryption, so even the datamining crowd came away empty handed.

Three days isn’t long, so have a peek before it closes. Then tell me what you pulled, either in the comments or in chat with the Snowy Crew.
