Okay, guys, let’s talk about when this new split for League of Legends starts. I’ve been digging around because, like many of you, I’m eager to jump into the new ranked season.
So, I started by checking the official announcements. I saw that the big day was May 15, 2024. This was when Split 2 officially kicked off. Seems like Riot Games set it to start at noon, server time. For me, it was pretty straightforward—I just logged in at lunchtime and bam, the new split was live.
I also noticed they dropped a new patch, 14.10, right at the start of Split 2. I spent some time reading through the patch notes, just to see what’s new and how it might change the game. I wanted to get a sense of what Riot was aiming to improve.
From what I gathered, they’re really trying to make things better for ranked players. I heard a lot of complaints about LP gains and the grind, so it’s cool to see them addressing that. The patch notes mentioned they’re tackling issues like negative LP gains, demotion anxiety, and that feeling of being stuck in a ranked climb. I appreciated that they’re listening to the community.
The Changes in Patch 14.10
- First off, they talked about how they’re adjusting LP gains.
- Secondly, they’re making changes to demotions.
- Lastly, they’re tweaking the ranked climb experience to make it less of a grind.
Then I thought about when this split will wrap up. It turns out, September 24, 2024, is the end date. That gives us a good chunk of time to climb the ranks. I marked it on my calendar and set a reminder. That way, I can plan my gaming sessions and make sure I hit my goals before the split ends.
I also heard that Victorious Kog’Maw was the reward for those who hit Gold in Split 1. I managed to snag that one, which felt great! For Split 2, it’s Victorious Sona. I’m aiming for that one too. It’s always nice to have these skins as a badge of honor. It’s like a little trophy for all the effort we put into ranked play.
After Split 2, I learned that Split 3 starts on September 25, 2024, at noon. It’s pretty cool that they’re keeping things moving with only a short break in between. I appreciate the quick turnaround—it keeps the game fresh and exciting. Plus, it gives us another shot at glory if we didn’t quite make it in the previous split.
So, yeah, that’s what I’ve figured out about the new split. I’m excited to see how these changes play out and to dive back into ranked. Let’s get climbing, folks!
