The next patch for League of Legends brings the Rell mid-scope update, as well as smaller balance changes to strong ADCs and the new items brought in the previous patch.

Patch 13.11 for League of Legends comes right after the mid-season invitational. As such, Riot is looking to make some changes toward overperforming champions such as Apehlios and Jinx. The developers are also looking to tune certain items after the mid-season patch, hoping to bring them into a more balanced state.

Finally, Rell’s mid-scope update will also arrive in Patch 13.11, with a brand new E ability and reworked passive.

When does LoL Patch 13.11 go live?

League of Legends Patch 13.11 should go live on June 1, 2023, according to Riot’s patch schedule. Patch 13.11 will head to Oceanic servers first, with other servers slowly receiving it throughout the day.

Here are the key timings of Patch 13.11 for your server:

  • 3AM PT (NA)
  • 5AM GMT (EUW)
  • 3AM CET (EUNE)
  • 8AM KST (Korea)

There’ll be a few hours of downtime when patching begins, and matchmaking queues will be taken offline about three hours beforehand.

What’s changing in LoL Patch 13.11?

Rell Mid-scope update

Rell will be receiving her mid-scope update in 13.11. On release, Rell saw potential as an incredible wombo combo initiator support but ended up not being popular and living up to her champion fantasy. Fortunately, Riot is looking to increase her capability to engage, granting her a move speed buff on her new E ability and further tankiness on her passive. In order to counteract this, other parts of her kit have been tuned accordingly.

Item tuning after mid-season update

After the previous patches’ major item changes, Riot is looking to balance the items further now that players have gotten their hands on them. This includes some nerfs coming to Galeforce and Youmuu’s Ghostblade, with buffs going to Kraken Slayer and Moonstone Renewer.

  • Note: You do not need to Smite the camp at any time in order for the Buff Wisp to drop, but Smite MUST be fully upgraded.
  • But I’m Not the Jungler: If a player that is not the Jungler kills the Red Brambleback or the Blue Sentinel BUT the Jungler’s Smite is fully upgraded, then a Buff Wisp will still drop, but it will only be visible to the allied Jungler. It will still only remain for 1 minute.
