RAID: Shadow Legends – How to Get Ninja for Free

You are probably already aware of RAID's own Know Your Meme page. While RAID: Shadow Legends is one of the pretty good mobile gacha games out there (now also available on PC), its online marketing has been quite… extreme. The latest case collaborates with Ninja, aka Tyler Blevins, to make him a playable character in RAID: Shadow Legends.

Ninja is available in the game since July 16, and to get him for free, you need to log in to the game for 7 consecutive days during the period of 16th July – 15th October 2021. Regardless, I play the game, so if you want to join me, now it's a great time to do it and get Ninja before the limited-time event expires. If you miss out, you miss out forever (Plarium's words, not mine).

Ninja is an extremely valuable champion for early to mid-game players as he is one of the best champions for the Clan Boss thanks to his HP burn debuffs with Hailburn.
