Summoners, steel yourselves for a masterpiece as Riot Games' brand new champion and magnum opus, Hwei, will join the fray when League of Legends patch 13.24 hits live servers.

This latest upcoming patch is closing the year off with a bang, with loads of new items hitting the in-game Shop. Apparently, Riot Games are also in a giving mood for the holiday season, with buffs for Zeri, Braum, Leona, and a number of other champions to help those struggling in solo queue.

If that isn't enough of a treat, it's time to don your winter wardrobe with eight new fantastically festive Winterblessed skins to spend your RP on!

Read on for the complete list of champion buffs, nerfs, item changes, rune changes, and more!

WHEN WILL PATCH 13.24 GO LIVE?

The final League of Legends patch of the year 13.24 will go live on Wednesday, December 6, 2023. League patch 13.24 will be rolled out steadily across the day according to different server timezones, beginning with the Oceanic server at around 10 AM AEST.

Here are all the critical League patch 13.24 rollout times for the remaining servers.

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

This patch has more content than previous ones, so server downtime may take longer than usual to fit all the new changes. While the patch is going live, 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 13.24?

League of Legends patch 13.24 brings 12 champion buffs and 2 nerfs to Summoner's Rift. Mordekaiser is also getting some QoL improvements to incentivize AP more and tank items less. Leona will get some much-needed love as Riot attempts to carve out a better niche for her playstyle.

A palette of endless opportunities awaits as Hwei, the Visionary will officially launch on LoL servers as the newest champion to join the roster. As a high-complexity champion with over ten spell combinations, it'll be interesting to see how he reshapes the meta. Hwei will more than likely receive a significant amount of balancing changes in a future patch as Riot Games treads new waters.
