What the voucher actually covers

Blizzard announced a Mythic gift after the September 12 opening ceremony. Playing one match during the offer earns a voucher for one eligible complete Mythic skin bundle from Seasons 1–14. The stated deadline to earn and redeem it is October 5. Aspects are excluded from the bundle.

Players who already own the base level of every eligible Mythic skin receive 50 Mythic Prisms instead. This is not a voucher for any item in the Mythic Shop, and it should not be described as a free choice of every newly released skin. The eligible set is part of the offer.

Do not stop at earning the voucher

The practical step is to check both the reward and its redemption state. Playing the qualifying match and selecting the desired bundle are separate actions. Before leaving the shop, confirm that the reward has actually been applied to the account rather than assuming a notification completed the choice for you.

As of October 4, the October 5 deadline is still ahead. Check the cutoff shown in your own game client rather than inferring an exact hour from a social-media timestamp. If you qualify for the alternate Prism reward, confirm that it has been credited instead of trying to redeem an unavailable base skin. The offer's one-match requirement and its eligible Seasons 1–14 selection should remain separate from the normal prices and availability of newer Mythics.
