Welcome to the Jungle; we've got fun and games! It's that time of month again when Riot Games releases their League of Legends patch notes for 13.21. While patch 13.20 was game-changing with tons of new balance changes, patch 13.21 seems tamer in comparison, bringing unconventional jungle champions into the fray.

This time around, LoL patch 13.21 sees 18 champions getting some much-needed tweaks, breaking it down to nine buffs, six nerfs, and three build adjustments. Alongside that, League promises the return of the fan-favorite Cafe Cuties skin line with four new additions. Taking your coffee to go? Settle down and delve into our early LoL patch notes for 13.21.

WHEN WILL LOL PATCH 13.21 GO LIVE?

According to Riot's patch schedule, League of Legends patch 13.21 will go live on October 25, 2023, and is already out on League's Public Beta Environment (PBE).

The patch will be rolled out steadily across the day according to all significant server time zones, beginning with the Oceanic server at around 10 AM AEST. Here are all the critical LoL patch 13.21 rollout times for the remaining LoL servers worldwide.

  • 5 AM GMT (EU West)
  • 3 AM CET (EU North East)
  • 8 AM KST (Korea)
  • 3 PM CT (NA)

Like every new patch release, several hours of server downtime will occur. While this happens, all matchmaking and competitive queues will be disabled around three hours before the latest patch goes live on servers.

WHAT'S NEW IN LOL PATCH 13.21?

It's the era of the unusual jungler! To switch things up, Riot Games is buffing certain non-meta champion picks to improve their suitability for the Jungle camp clearing, like Zyra, Morgana, and Brand. For patch 31.21, they're doing this to balance out the damage roles for Jungle, as it's currently mostly dominated by AD champions.
