A new season of ‘League of Legends (LoL)’ begins.
LoL season 13 kicks off on the 11th with the application of patch 13.1. As usual, big changes are applied this time too. 안전놀이터
First of all, the ranked game method is newly changed. It is divided into split 1 and split 2, and ranks are given for each split. Ranks are reset when a new split starts.
In the meantime, Riot has mentioned the MMR (Matchmaking Rating) system problem and the problem of destroying the game ecosystem using sub-accounts several times, so it is interpreted that they had this in mind. Split 2 will be held mid-season, but the exact date has not been set. As a result, he was also given the ‘victory skin’ twice. Previously, Seungri’s skin was only given to users of the ‘Gold’ tier or higher in the game. However, in the future, all ranked users will be given the winning skin. However, more colorful chromas are paid to users who have a certain tier or higher.
The pre-promotion requirements are also changed. The difficulty level was lowered by changing the promotion requirements from the existing 3-out-of-5 system to a 2-out-of-3 system.
There have also been major changes within the game. The biggest change in LoL in 2022 was the ‘durability enhancement patch’. The base durability of all champions has been improved, and the frequency of killing opponents in the laning phase has decreased. The status of the Assassin Champions, who had been strong so far, also fell. Naturally, the game aspect became longer, and the status of the ranged dealer in charge of damage in the second half of the game also increased.
However, in season 13, the influence of the upper body line is expected to increase. Minion EXP decreased in the bot lane, and EXP increased for the top and mid lane minions. The change in tank items used by top champions is also noticeable. The price of the ‘Shield of the Legion’, a sub-item of the myth item, has been reduced by 200 won.
In order to prevent the game from slowing down or avoiding battles in the process of growing dealers, the value of objects has been increased and the performance of dragons has been strengthened.
LoL developer Matthew Leung-Harrison Game Plane Design Lead and Chris Roberts Game Loop Product Lead, who visited Korea in November last year, said, “Games can become slow or boring due to increased durability. Changes were made to objects such as the messenger of the gorge and the dragon, and the durability and power of the dragon were also increased. We made it so that the battle over the object could continue.”Meanwhile, several contents were added during the two-month preseason.
The ‘Chemical Engineering Dragon’, which hid for a while in the canyon due to its overwhelming performance, reappeared with a different look. The existing ability to resurrect a champion when acquiring a soul has been deleted. Instead, when HP is low, the damage inflicted increases and the damage received decreases.
The dragon effect has also been changed. Stealthable chemical engineering terrain is gone. Instead, ‘honey fruit’ is changed to ‘stimulant fruit’. When consumed, a shield effect is added along with the existing physical recovery effect, and the slowing effect is removed. The range of ‘Pine Blast’ is doubled. ‘Crystal Plant’ is strengthened by ‘Ignition Plant’, and moving speed increases for a short time when moving to an area with a clear view. Enemy wards revealed have their health reduced to 1.
A large-scale patch for junglers was also carried out. A new ‘Jungle Fellow’ has been added to help with jungleing, and the amount of damage inflicted on jungle monsters in the ally’s camp has also increased. If only small monsters remain in the jungle camp, they will be automatically removed after 10 seconds. The ‘counter jungle’ play, which widens the gap between junglers in the early hours by entering the opponent’s jungle area, was also suppressed to some extent. 안전놀이터
A patch was also made for the convenience of users. New hand signals such as ‘pressure’, ‘enticement’, and ‘all-out attack’ have been added to encourage users to communicate more diversely. In the ‘ban-pick phase’, the champion selection process, you can ask your opponent to change the selection order with a simple click.
