League of Legends V13.4[]

Client[]

Behavioral Systems

• New commands for /muteself and /deafen are available in-game. We have seen players use the automatic chat abuse detection and muting feature in order to mute themselves, which is a misuse of that system. Given players do want to use this functionality, we are providing ways for players to mute themselves without needing to use inappropriate language to do so.
  • /muteself will prevent you from using text chat as well as notify other players you have muted yourself. You can undo this by using /muteself again.
  • /deafen will prevent you from using text chat AND prevent yourself from seeing chat from other players, as well as notify other players you have muted yourself. You can undo this by using /deafen again.

Champion Select

• Reworked pick order and champion swapping UI for greater clarity. Pick order swapping has a new interaction, while champion swapping has been reverted to what it was before pick order swapping was introduced.

Clash

• The first Clash tournament of the year is coming up next month.
  • Weekend 1 Registration Begins: March 6, 2023 (11:00 AM Local Time)
  • Weekend 1 Tournament Days: March 11 and 12, 2023 (~4-7 PM Local, varies by region)
  • Weekend 2 Registration Begins: March 20, 2023 (11:00 AM Local Time)
  • Weekend 2 Tournament Dates: March 25 and 26, 2023 (~4-7 PM Local, varies by region)

Competitive

• LP win and loss amount when your visible rank approximately matches your MMR from 15 ⇒ 22. All gain and loss values are increased across the board.
• A duo in a match has more of an advantage over the solo players in their match than they should right now, so we're making a change which should result in them being put in games with higher skilled players on both sides. We'll continue to monitor and may nudge this value over the next few patches.
• Slightly increased the skill rating in matchmaking for duo players in Ranked Solo/Duo.
• Split point progression will now be shown on the ranked end-of-game progression screen.

Mythic Shop

  • Prestige K/DA ALL OUT Kai'Sa
  • Prestige Coven Zyra

Party Chat

• Party chat is a new chat channel that allows you to chat just to your pre-made party members. Chat channels indicate who will see the messages you send, which was previously limited to team and all chat. The chat console will now show the chat channels receiving your messages to the left of your chat bar. You can toggle between the different channels with commands or the [tab] key, and change which channels are active for you in your settings. For quick access to party chat you can use the /party, /pt, or /p commands. Incoming Party chat messages will be indicated with [Party] before the message. Party chat will be the default chat setting for new players.

Refund Tokens

• In the 13.1 Patch Notes we mentioned that Refund Tokens would be deprecated due to internal technical challenges with supporting an older refund system. However, after some reassessment of the situation and a focused effort from our teams over the last several weeks, we've identified a path forward to maintain the refund token system that has been present prior to this year. We apologize for the mixed messaging, but ultimately want to thank you for your feedback on this. We also won't be backtracking on the 3 refund tokens that we granted to each player at the beginning of the season.
  • Players will accumulate one (1) refund token each year up to a max total of three (3) tokens per account. The same eligibility rules will apply and can be found in more detail on the support website.
  • With the preservation of this system, this means the next token refresh will occur at the start of Season 14.

Rune Recommender

• Rune recommendations have been added to the standard rune page editor.
• The rune recommender will now remember which role you selected until you switch champions.
• Rune page selection defaults to the temporary slot if a recommended page was used in the prior game instead of your first permanent rune page. If no rune page has been selected, a recommended page will be randomly selected 6 seconds before the end of champion select.
• Improved audio of the rune recommender and champion select.

• Bug Fix: Now consistently uses more accurate recommendations for summoner spells.
