Passes & Rewards

There are changes with Passes, which won't be divided into two acts. Each pass has a 1295 RP upgradeable version that grants players VIP access to Arenas, Tacticians, etc. Here's an overview of everything you can find in your game after the patch.

With three sets a year (hands up!), we no longer have a mid-set to reset our Pass. And now that sets are longer, we're dividing our Pass into two acts. Both Passes will offer different rewards, although they’ll share a few core components such as Treasure Tokens and Star Shards. Each Pass has a 1295 RP upgradeable version that’ll grant you VIP access to Arenas, Tacticians, and more! And if you want to see how far you can get on the free version of the Pass—no sweat, you can always upgrade at a later point to claim all your rewards. Speaking of rewards, let’s check em’ out! 

Ranked Rewards and Changes

TL;DR: Because we’re moving to 3 sets a year with no mid-sets, we need to make some updates to smooth out the climb. These updates include the release of Emerald tier, a reduction in penalties for LP decay below Challenger, and an increase in the banked game max to 14 to align with LoL PC. Masters+ players can now enjoy a full 2-week vacation! 

• Climbing will be slightly easier & faster to rank up to Platinum & below
• Higher ranks may take longer, because we have a longer season (no mid-set reset), we’re adjusting the climb to fit it’s new length (but not exactly in a 1:1)
• Emerald Tier is here
• Inactivity penalty changed! Days banked 10 ⇒ 14 (aka Masters+ players can now enjoy a full 2-weeks off)
• LP Decay adjusted! For Master, the new penalty for inactivity will be -50 LP (from -250)
• LP Decay adjusted! For Grandmaster, the new penalty for inactivity will be -150 LP (from -250)
• LP Decay for Challenger players remains the same, -250LP
• When Remix Rumble goes live in your region, you'll be able to start climbing the ladder immediately
• Depending on your rank in the previous season, you will start anywhere from Iron II to Bronze IV. This is true for both Double Up and Standard ranked.
• You will get 5 provisional matches after the reset, meaning you will not lose any LP for sub-top 4 placements in your first 5 ranked games of the new stage. You'll also gain extra LP for finishing top 4, so best of luck!
• Your Hyper rating will be reset to 500
• Note that there’s still a 24h period of delay between mobile and PC going live

Core Items

Many of our double component items (2x B.F. Sword, Needlessly Large Rod, Negatron Cloak, etc.) have been dependent on providing large stats that other items amplify. We’re giving these items a generic effect that will make them a bit stronger as a single standalone item. As a consequence, their big stats have been lowered.

Bramble Vest is becoming less of a hard counter to AD Crit and getting more general tankiness. It’ll still be your go-to against AD heavy lobbies, but should be slightly less of a “paper beats rock” situation. Dragon’s Claw is also getting a similar treatment with 10 less MR and bonus max Health.

As we continue to make traits and other effects that allow spells to critically strike, we don't want players feeling bad about having built Infinity Edge or Jeweled Gauntlet. So they'll grant some additional power if the player already has spell crit.
