A huge Ranked update was announced during the recent LoL Dev Update video. In it, Riot Games revealed major changes to the ranked reset system for League of Legends in 2025. The adjustment addresses community concerns about the grind, pacing, and overall experience of ranked gameplay. Here's everything you should know about these Ranked Reset Changes.

The Problem with Multiple Ranked Resets

Over the years, League has tried out different approaches to resets, such as two to three ranked resets per year. However, this system often left LoL players feeling burnt out or unrewarded (We've all been there). It sort of feels like you're always grinding and there's too much pressure to rank well.

Starting in 2025, Riot Games is going back to a single large ranked reset at the beginning of each year. Here's what this means for players:

  1. No Mid-Year Resets: There will no longer be additional resets during the year. Players can enjoy uninterrupted progress and focus on reaching their goals.
  2. Similar Reset Scale: The reset in January will be tuned to be comparable to the older system, ensuring a fair starting point for all LoL players.

Yeah, there will be only one reset in LoL Ranked but we'll be keeping the three Seasonal rewards:

  • Three Victorious Skins Per Year: Players can earn one Victorious skin for each of the three Seasons, tied to the new thematic Seasonal structure Riot is introducing.
  • How to Unlock Them: To claim a skin, players must win 15 Ranked games during that specific Season.

Conclusion

Well, the single-season reset will be back. That's good because we can keep climbing in Ranked without any interruptions. It's also great that Riot Games is responding to feedback from the community. Such a huge change will surely make the experience way more enjoyable and less frustrating.
