Alright, so I was messing around with “League of Legends” the other day, right? And I got to thinking, “When does this Split 2 thing wrap up?” I mean, I’ve been grinding away, trying to climb that ranked ladder, and I needed to know how much time I had left. Time is super important.
So, I did what any normal person would do – I hit up Google. Typed in “when does split 2 end league” and started digging. The first thing I noticed was a bunch of different dates. One said September 24th, another said November 13th, and yet another mentioned January 8th. Talk about confusing, right?

But then, I came across this official-looking post from Riot Games. They’re the big shots behind “League,” so I figured they’d know what’s up. And guess what? They finally cleared it up. It said that Split 2 ends on September 24th. Phew, that was a relief!
But here’s the kicker – it’s not just a simple date. They specified that ranked play will be available until 11:59 PM local time on each server. And for those top-tier players – the Masters, Grandmasters, and Challengers – they gotta finish up 15 minutes earlier, at 11:45 PM. Talk about pressure! The situation is a bit complicated.
They also talked about this thing called Split 3, which apparently starts just 12 hours after Split 2 ends. And get this – they’re doing a “soft rank reset” when Split 3 starts. So, everyone’s rank is gonna drop a bit. They said it’s normal, but still, it’s kinda a bummer, you know?
Here’s a quick rundown of what I learned:
- Split 2 ends on September 24th, 2024.
- Ranked play stops at 11:59 PM local time (11:45 PM for the big-shot players).
- Split 3 starts 12 hours later.
- Expect a soft rank reset when Split 3 kicks off.
- Ranks are getting reset between splits now, so you’ll start higher than before.
- They’ve added some features to make climbing ranks a bit easier.
So yeah, that’s the whole story of my little adventure into the world of “League of Legends” ranked splits. It was a bit of a rollercoaster, with all those different dates flying around, but I finally got to the bottom of it. Now I know exactly when Split 2 ends and what to expect for Split 3. Time to get back to grinding! I have got new goals to chase after.
