Here are the League Patch 13.11 patch notes (2023)

The League of Legends pro scene may be in a lull following JD Gaming’s victory in London but the game is still very much full tilt when it comes to changes in season 13⁠—a trend that only continues with League Patch 13.11 next week.

Champions are back on the menu this update after largely missing out last time around while 10 items, mainly bot lane picks, are getting follow-up changes.

In all, the Riot Games developers are plotting up to 23 buffs, nerfs, and adjustments, including the long-anticipated arrival of the major Rell rework as well as nerfs for several stronger champions like Aurelion Sol, Jinx, Aphelios, and Amumu and buffs for Azir, Akali, Twisted Fate, and plenty more.

“Overall tough to judge initial ADC strength with the plethora of builds, especially when tuning some very powerful items,” the devs wrote on Twitter on May 22 before confirming Galeforce and Stormrazer are in their sights.

There were “good shifts,” they added, but more is needed.

And for all you League skin collectors there’s great news for you too: the custom skins for reigning world champions DRX are finally landing in-store in June.

League Patch 13.11 release date

This time around, the next League update of 2023 will actually be shipped out around 24 hours later than usual, on Thursday, June 1⁠—according to Riot’s patch schedule. While the wait may be a bit of a pain, and I feel your pain on that, once the day arrives we can all start patching early in the morning.

Luckily for me, I’m down under in Australia so my update cycle begins pretty early, at around 10am (AEDT). Here are the key patch rollout times for some of the major League servers across the globe:

• 3am PT (NA)
• 5am GMT (EU West)
• 3am CET (EU North East)
• 8am KR (Korea)

There will be several hours of downtime once the patch begins. Matchmaking and competitive queues will be disabled across all League servers three hours before the update is officially deployed and set live.

What’s coming in League Patch 13.11?

Rell rework finally rolls onto the Rift

The wait is finally over for the Iron Maiden to return⁠—on June 1, after months and months of delays, the Rell midscope update will finally grace the Rift.

The headlining change for Rell is that following her midscope update, she should have easier ways to start teamfights. Riot wants to turn her into more of a playmaking pick via the rework and has even spiced in a few buffs for her jungle potential to see if she can work as an engage champ there.

12 champs, 10 items tweaked in midseason follow-up

Following the huge League Patch 13.10 changes that hit basically every item in Riot’s flagship title (trust me, I had to type out every buff and nerf last week), the developers are taking a second swing to hit some outliers.

This includes buffs for Duskblade, Kraken Slayer, Moonstone Renewer, Navori Quickblades, and the newly-returned Statikk Shiv. Heading the other way are Ardent Censor, Echoes of Helia, Galeforce, Youmuu’s Ghostblade, and Stormrazer, the last of which has basically become a must-build recently.

On the champion side, Akali, Aurelion Sol, Ivern, Kalista, Rek’Sai, Renekton, Twisted Fate, Azir, Ivern, Amumu, Aphelios, Kog’Maw, and Jinx are getting changes.

Glory for DRX as Worlds 2022 skins finally arrive

Six months after their glorious Cinderella run to the 2022 World Championship, the DRX roster is finally seeing their personalized League skins added to the store. The team’s picks include Aatrox, Akali, Ashe, Caitlyn, Kindred, and Maokai.

The championship skin line will also, for the first time, be getting a Prestige variant included alongside the usual releases. The lucky champ this update is Aatrox.

Here are all the new skins coming this patch:

• DRX Aatrox (1,350 RP)
• DRX Akali (1,350 RP)
• DRX Ashe (1,350 RP)
• DRX Caitlyn (1,350 RP)
• DRX Kindred (1,350 RP)
• DRX Maokai (1,350 RP)
• Prestige DRX Aatrox (125 Mythic Essence)

These DRX skins will go live during the League Patch 13.11 cycle.

Here are all the early patch notes for the June 1 update. Remember, until Riot releases the official notes, any of these buffs, nerfs, and changes are still tentative and we could see them pulled at any time.
