More From This Patch
New skins, chromas, bugfixes and everything else Riot shipped this patch.
▶Vanguard LP Refunds and New Ban Notification
ExpandCollapse
Vanguard LP Refunds and New Ban Notification
Cheaters suck, and encountering one in-game has been widely quantified by scientists as a "1 Star Experience." While it's satisfying to see cheaters get banned, playing against one can still leave an innocent player with a defeat in their match history and a bad taste in their mouth. So, starting with 25.06, we'll be offering remedy for the former, and if Vanguard determines that any player lost a Ranked game to an active cheater, we'll be "refunding" the LP lost as a result of that game once the cheater is suspended.
When a refund happens, you'll receive a notification immediately (or on your next login), telling you when the match occurred, how much LP you've been credited, and identifying your updated rank in beautiful, bold beaufort lettering. We won't be removing LP from those that inadvertently won with a cheater on their team, only restoring it to those that suffered a loss. However, any account that's found intentionally and repeatedly queuing with cheaters, also known as "hitchhiking" or "bussing," will be banned right alongside them.
Also in this patch, we'll be introducing our 2nd favorite notification: reporter feedback. The Vanguard team heavily utilizes in-game reports to best direct their attention at any player needing more loving review, so to keep that loop as accurate as possible, it's important that you know when your hackusations are right on the money. …and it doesn't hurt to know the exact moment that a cheater's account got beamed into the heliosphere.
▶The Demon’s Hand

The Demon’s Hand
With this patch we have our first seasonal mini-game: The Demon’s Hand, a strategic turn-based card-battling game. It’s playable now in the client so make sure to hop in and see how the story continues to unfold for Atakhan, and maybe get some cool rewards while you’re at it. A special title lies for those skilled enough to beat the hardest difficulty, Demon Mode. Good luck!
Learn more about it here.
▶Honor

Honor
As we mentioned in the last Dev Update, we're going to start giving Honorable players ways to earn up to 2 additional Hextech Chests this Act. Those Honor Chests will be delivered through missions, and you'll be able to earn them faster the higher your Honor level, so make sure to check your Objectives Panel!
▶Champion Mastery
ExpandCollapse
Champion Mastery
In this patch we're releasing our new champion mastery icons! We've made these updates based on requests from all of you to bring the emotes we introduced last year more in line with their previous versions, while still giving them a fresh new look.
As a heads up, we're still making some final tweaks to the color, texture, and audio of the emotes based on some PBE feedback, so expect those to come through next patch. For now though, enjoy showing off your hard earned mastery in style.
▶Your Shop

Your Shop
Your Shop will be returning this patch! It'll be here for 2 patches, so make sure to check it out before it goes away on April 16.
▶Arena
ExpandCollapse
Arena
The first patch of this run of Arena is out and we're so excited to see so many of you playing!
We've added a ton of new systems and content this time around so we're looking to polish some rough edges this patch now that y'all have had time to get your hands on them and give us your feedback.
In this patch we're looking to bring in power outliers on both sides, do adjustments to some of our new Guests of Honor, and balance some new augments that, while fun, needed a little followup. Next patch will introduce some more Guests of Honor, so look forward to those!
Arena has landed quite balanced overall! This patch we're adjusting some outlier champions who benefitted from larger system changes like our manascaling buffs and the like. We're also doing a swathe of system changes to bring down the power of the mage class a bit and bring up the power of enchanters, who were looking a bit too weak in the mode.
Our high level balance principles on Arena revolve around us trying to keep things fresh and exciting. We really don't want the game to become stale to the point everyone picks the same champions and augments every game; that leads to boring, repetitive game, gameplay, and an overall poorer play experience.

▶Mythic Shop Update
ExpandCollapse
Mythic Shop Update
This patch we're introducing a new iteration of the Mythic Shop that'll change how we do rotations going forward. We have a blog out now with all the details, so check that out if you want to know more.
This new version of the shop will be going live at 00:00:00 UTC on Thursday, March 20th.
Going forward the shop will randomly select content from the list of available items for each respective category, and each category will have its own associated timer. Once that timer expires, new content will be randomly selected. It'll now look like this:This will allow content to cycle quicker and give you more chances to get that one skin you've been waiting for. You should also see more offerings for Chromas, Icons, Wards, and Emotes. Previously, you would only see 8 accessories in the shop during a patch, but now you'll be able to see up to 56 different accessories in the same amount of time.
- Featured Content - Manually selected, does not expire. (Newest Shop Prestige, Nexus Finisher, things from the past for the current "event", etc.)
- Bi-weekly - 12 randomly selected Mythic Skins
- Weekly - 8 randomly selected Chromas
- Daily - 4 randomly selected Icons/Wards/Emotes
The trade off here is we can't tell you specifically what's coming, because we won't know either, but we'll still be monitoring the catalogue and making sure things are rotating through. We're also looking to experiment with the volume and frequency of these changes so let us know what you think about these updates!
▶The Sanctum and Quantum Galaxy Slayer Zed

The Sanctum and Quantum Galaxy Slayer Zed
With the delay of Sahn-Uzal Mordekaiser skin we're going to be extending Quantum Galaxy Slayer Zed's banner until the next banner item rotates in.
▶Prestige Battle Academia Qiyana

Prestige Battle Academia Qiyana
While testing and preparing the new shop we discovered a bug where the Prestige Battle Academia Qiyana listing wasn't properly granting her Icon Border. We weren't able to get this fixed in time for release, so for a moment if you purchase her she will come without the Icon Border.
We will be retroactively granting this for players at a later date when we have the issue fixed but currently don't have an ETA on that. So don't worry if it's missing, we will get it to you. We'll let you know as soon as we have an update on this.
▶Black Rose Beats

Black Rose Beats
The Black Rose arrives on Summoner's Rift this patch, and with them some music changes. So if you're interested make sure your in-game music is turned on!
