League of Legend Preseason Begins November 8th

League of Legend Preseason is coming in just a few days.

Get ready to experiment with powerful new runes, discover new playstyles, and level to infinity. Check out this preseason page http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/featured/preseason-update to see all the features arriving November 8th.

The Runes Reforged update in particular is a massive change, and shipping it is really just the beginning. There will still be a lot to accomplish, especially with all the extra feedback they get once everyone is playing with the new Runes. Along with normal balance work, bug fixing, clarity improvements, and polish, thet will have to pay close attention to see which champions are struggling in the initial release. They will work diligently to add, retouch, and replace runes as we discover the most pressing needs brought by the new system.

Over the course of many upcoming patches, they will also continue to work on features that they didn’t wrap up in time for the preseason update. For example, they will need to add keystone support for the in-game spectator mode and include runes in the end-of-game experience. they will also make managing rune pages easier and more streamlined with better filtering options and the ability to hide preset pages.

This is the biggest gameplay change we’ve ever shipped. There'll be a lot to tweak and we'll be working on it well past live. Expect to hear from us a lot in the coming days, weeks, and months as we continue to listen and respond to player feedback. We look forward to talking with everyone on boards and all the usual social media spots. See you on the Rift!
