Brief Summary of League of Legends Patch Notes 13.14

In the patch notes for League of Legends version 13.14, there are several exciting updates being introduced. Here's a brief overview:

Soul Fighter: New Game Mode - Arena

This new 2v2v2v2 game mode is now available. Four teams, consisting of two players each, compete against each other in alternating combat rounds. The teams will boost their abilities with unique Augments after each round, until only one team remains. The battlegrounds vary in size, layout, and aesthetics, and characters from the Soul Fighter universe will occasionally feature in the games. A leaderboard will showcase the top performing teams.

Tournament of Souls

This is a combo-battler style game, where players control Samira. The objective is to defeat ten opponents and emerge as the champion. The progression is reputation-based: as players play games, they earn reputation, which unlocks new opponents and abilities. With each victory, players can claim rewards and unlock new difficulty levels: Story and Expert.

New Champion - Naafiri

Naafiri is a new champion finally will be with us in this patch. Players can join the hunt with Naafiri from July 20th, 2023. For more details you can check our Article about Naafiri through here.

Several changes are being implemented in Clash, including:

Clash tournament frequency has been decreased from twice to once per month, but with 2 Clash days per tournament.
Clash Capsule and Orb rewards will now be determined by the total number of wins during the tournament, rather than placement position.
Victory Points (VP) rewards for wins have been doubled, while the VP needed for rewards remains the same.
At least one Non-Summoner's Rift Clash tournament will be hosted each year.
Adjustments have been made to the VP needed for Clash-related challenges.
