by

League of Legends Patch 13.1: Season 13 of League of Legends has arrived. After a brief break over the holidays, the developers at Riot Games are hard at work again with fortnightly patches to the constantly evolving League metagame.

Patch 13.1 kicks off the 2023 League season. The veteran fighter of the Summoner’s Rift, Jax, is getting a mid-scope update to modernize his ability kit and put him right back in the metagame, along with the usual champion changes and item adjustments.

Riot Games is also planning to roll out brand new variant skins in the first patch cycle of January, in addition to the gameplay adjustments. Everything you need to know about League Patch 13.1 is included here.

League of Legends Patch 13.1 Release Date

According to Riot’s release schedule, the first patch of 2023 will go live on Tuesday, January 10. As usual, the update will roll out gradually throughout the day, beginning in Australia at around 10 a.m. (AEDT). Here are the schedules for when major League servers will receive patches:

  • 3am PT (NA)
  • 5am GMT (EU West)
  • 3am CET (EU North East)
  • 8am KR (Korea)

Once the patch begins, there will be several hours of downtime. All League servers will turn off matchmaking and competitive queues three hours before the update goes live.

What’s coming in League patch 13.1?

New ranked season begins

Prepare yourselves for another year of toil, Summoners, as the next ranked season of the League will kick off on Tuesday, January 10. It will launch alongside Patch 13.1 on the servers.

In its current iteration, the ranked season will be split in half, with players competing in two distinct brackets rather than a single, continuous ranking system. Both of these divisions will receive promotions and additional benefits throughout the year.

Jax mid-scope coming in January

As promised earlier, the Riot Games development team has provided players with a release date for Jax’s (and Rell’s) mid-scope update.

According to Riot Phlox, the revamped version of Jax along with the rest of the 13.1 champion updates will be released on Tuesday, January 10 for Summoner’s Rift.

Four champions, four items up for buffs

It is a goal of the Riot Games development team for 2023 to increase mage itemization, and work on this new initiative begins in the very first update of the year.

Axiom Arc, Horizon Focus, Rod of Ages, and Winter’s Approach are all getting buffs, as confirmed by Riot Phlox on Twitter.

Four champions, including Shaco, who is receiving some attack damage love, will join the boosted items in the green column.

Yuumi, Aatrox lead planned nerfs

Riot Phlox, who tweeted a preview of the 13.1 patches for Season 13 of League of Legends, has revealed that the infamous floating cat Yuumi will be receiving nerfs in the upcoming season’s first update.

Pro-play power pick Aatrox, along with Dr. Mundo, Fiora, the new champion K’Sante, and many others, will join her on the chopping block.
