Ranking all Marvel Rivals Star Lord skins from least impressive to best
5) Star- Lord Base skin (B-tier)

Star-Lord base skin looks quite similar to Jovial Star, thus landing it into the B-tier for Marvel Rivals Star Lord skins. It features a slightly different color palette and design with blue and yellow tones but lacks the extra flair and excitement. While it still captures Star-Lord’s essence, it doesn’t have the same standout qualities or special effects that make the higher-tier skins more exciting.

However, it's still pretty popular among fans who like the core design and want to experience the "half human, half alien, all awesome" vibe that Star-Lord embodies without any of the added frills.
4) Jovial Star (A-tier)

The Jovial Star costume from Marvel Rivals Star Lord skins earns its place in the A-Tier due to its impressive design and the fact that it’s entirely free to unlock through gameplay. Inspired by Legendary Star-Lord (2014), this skin gives Star-Lord a confident and stylish look that resonates with his comic origins.

Players will be able to obtain this skin by completing "Vengeance for the Milano!" found in the Heroic Journey tab. This requires securing 10 KOs as Star-Lord with assist contributions from Guardians teammates, including Rocket Raccoon, Groot, Adam Warlock, or Mantis.
Description as follows:
"Face it. I rule. I love space. Down on Earth, my life was a nightmare. Down there, you wouldn't look at me twice. Up here, I'm living the drea..."
While it lacks the cinematic polish that GOTG Vol. 3 offers, the free unlock method and strong comic ties for the Jovial Star skin make this a top A-Tier pick.
3) Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (A-tier)

This skin lands in the S-Tier for its cinematic inspiration and overall aesthetic value. Based on the blue-and-red leather suit from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2023), this costume is comic-accurate. While it omits his iconic mask, the detailed craftsmanship, resemblance from the movie, and vibrant color palette make it a standout and the best costume in Marvel Rivals Star Lord skins as of December 2024.

Description as follows:
"The trap isn't a trap if you know the trap is trying to trap you. It's a face-off."
Comic book fans will appreciate the nod to the 2008 run by Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning, which inspired this skin’s design. The bundle option adds excellent value for those who want to upgrade their entire Guardian team.
2) Master of the Sun (A-tier)

The Master of the Sun Star Lord skin in Marvel Rivals can be purchased for 1800 Units in the in-game store. You can also choose to get only the costume for 1400 Units. The skin is static and features a unique jacket with bright red, orange, and yellow accent colors on the torso.
