League of Legends Patch 26.11 Notes

Happy Pride everyone! We have two new emotes that you can claim for 1 Blue Essence each immediately when the patch goes live. We also have a mission that will reward you with some Battle Pass experience for playing 3 games with a premade group. And several of the previous years' emotes will be returning in for 1 Blue Essence each.

Returning icons will activate trails from Patch 26.11 through Patch 26.13. If you don't have the icons yet, grab em in the store for—you guessed it—1 Blue Essence each!

To learn more about the event and how we're celebrating in both League and TFT check out the article we released.

We’ve made some changes to simplify navigation in the Ranked area of the client by removing the low-use “My Leagues” feature that displays where you are relative to random players in the same tier and division. You can still see how you’re doing compared to your friends, though. So don’t worry if you like to compete with one another.

You’ll still be able to see Master+ ladders, though, so if you’re someone with dreams of Challenger, don’t worry. Keep grinding and you can get your name up there (...at least that’s what we keep telling ourselves).

Mid Role Quest

Buffing the Role Quest reward as a minor follow up on the change in 26.9. We felt this reward landed a bit soft, but we think it does good things for the shape of the game by allowing mid laners their own special form of scaling.

• Bonus AD and AP: 6% ⇒ 8%

Only a small adjustment to Qiyana this patch! Go off, queen!

Champions

Qiyana

• Ability Haste: 0 ⇒ 20

Three-person Arena seems to be going strong with plenty of people jumping into the chaos. In this patch we've got three new Guests of Honor. Will you hunt demons alongside Yone, or embrace their darkness? Or perhaps you know exactly which one of Vayne's tools is the perfect counter to your opponents?

We're focusing our work around the changes to 3s with plenty of augment adjustments to adapt to the extra combatants in each fight. Enchanters have shot up in dominance while ADCs have been looking a tad weak so we're looking to bring them both in with the rest of the classes. Kinkou Jitte has been a bit of a terror and we're reverting it to its previous, one proc at a time, version that focuses on mobility. Hexbolt Companion's rework has also been an exciting autocast enabler, and we're looking to shift it towards the marksmen audience since Lighting Rod already does a great job of enabling autocasts for melee champions.

We'll be continuing to monitor all of your thoughts and feedback. It has been extremely helpful in making a great mode that you all clearly enjoy.

If the king's crown was offered to another, would you swipe it?
